本発明は、 電気絶縁性の透明基材上に透明導電膜が形成されている透明導電積 層体およびその製造方法、 この透明導電積層体を製造する際に使用されるスパヅ 夕リング夕一ゲット、 ならびに前記の透明導電積層体を利用した夕ツチパネルに 関する。 背 景 技 術  The present invention relates to a transparent conductive laminate in which a transparent conductive film is formed on an electrically insulating transparent substrate, a method for producing the same, and a sputter ring used for producing the transparent conductive laminate. And a sunset panel using the transparent conductive laminate. Background technology

電気絶縁性の透明基材上に透明導電膜が形成されている透明導電積層体は、 液 晶表示素子やエレクト口ルミネッセンス素子等の表示素子の駆動電極、 太陽電池 等の光電変換素子の窓電極、 あるいは夕ヅチパネル等の座標入力装置における透 明電極膜等、 透明性が要求される電極や配線を形成するための材料として広く利 用されている。  A transparent conductive laminate in which a transparent conductive film is formed on an electrically insulating transparent substrate is used as a drive electrode of a display element such as a liquid crystal display element or an electoran luminescence element, and a window electrode of a photoelectric conversion element such as a solar cell. Also, it is widely used as a material for forming electrodes and wirings requiring transparency, such as a transparent electrode film in a coordinate input device such as a touch panel.

この透明導電積層体の製造方法としては、 透明導電膜を湿式法によって透明基 材上に形成する方法や、 透明導電膜を真空蒸着法, イオンプレーティング法, ス パッ夕リング法等の物理的気相蒸着法 (PVD法) によって透明基材上に形成す る方法、 透明導電膜を化学的気相蒸着法 (CVD法) によって透明基材上に形成 する方法等が知られている。 これらの方法の中でも、 イオンプレ一ティング法や スパッタリング法によって透明導電膜を形成する方法は、 透明樹脂基材のように 耐熱性が比較的低い透明 上にも所望の透明導電膜を形成することができるこ とから、 透明導電積層体を製造するための手法として好適に利用されている。 ところで、 透明導電積層体を構成している透明導 mmに求められる電気的特性 は、 その用途に応じて異なる。例えば抵 5¾1方式の夕ヅチパネル (夕ツチスクリ —ンを含む。 以下同じ。 ) 、 特にアナログ型の夕ツチパネルにおける透明電極膜 として用いる場合には、 他の用途の透明導電膜よりも高電気抵抗であることが求 められており、 入力精度の高精度化に対する近年の要望の高まりに伴い、 現在で は表面抵抗が 80 0 Ω Tl以上であることが望まれるに至っている。 As a method for manufacturing the transparent conductive laminate, a method of forming a transparent conductive film on a transparent substrate by a wet method, or a method of forming the transparent conductive film by a physical method such as a vacuum evaporation method, an ion plating method, and a sputtering method. There are known a method of forming a transparent conductive film on a transparent substrate by a chemical vapor deposition method (CVD method), and a method of forming the transparent conductive film on a transparent substrate by a vapor phase deposition method (PVD method). Among these methods, a method of forming a transparent conductive film by an ion plating method or a sputtering method is capable of forming a desired transparent conductive film on a transparent material having relatively low heat resistance such as a transparent resin substrate. Because it can be used, it is suitably used as a method for producing a transparent conductive laminate. By the way, the electrical characteristics required for the transparent conductive mm forming the transparent conductive laminate differ depending on the application. For example, when used as a transparent electrode film in a 511-type touch panel (including a touch screen, the same applies hereinafter), especially when used as a transparent electrode film in an analog touch panel, the electrical resistance is higher than that of a transparent conductive film for other uses. With the recent demand for higher input accuracy, Has been desired to have a surface resistance of 800 Ω Tl or more.

夕ツチパネルは、 パーソナルコンピュータ, ワードプロセヅサ, 電子手帳等の コンピュータ本体 (主記憶装置) へのデータ入力を行うための入力装置の 1つで あり、 入力面に指やペン等によって単に荷重を加えるだけでデ一夕入力

こ とができることから、 近年、 入力装置として多用されるようになってきた。 この 夕ヅチパネルには種々の原理のものがあるが、 入力位置の検出感度向上の要求に 伴い、 最近ではアナログ型が採用されつつある。 The touch panel is one of the input devices for inputting data to the computer (main storage device) such as a personal computer, word processor, electronic notebook, etc. Simply applying a load to the input surface with a finger or pen etc. Enter overnight

Because of this capability, they have recently become widely used as input devices. There are various types of push panels, but with the demand for improved input position detection sensitivity, analog types have recently been adopted.

アナログ型の夕ヅチパネルでは、 透明 とこの透明 上に平皿に形成さ れた透明電極膜 (抵抗膜) とを備えた透明電極基板が 2枚、 前記の透明電極膜同 士が対向するようにしてスぺ一サ等によって所定間隔に保たれつつ配置されてお り、 2枚の透明電極 ¾反のうちの一方が入力面側に位置している。 そして、 入力 面側に位置している透明電極 ¾反の外部から当該透明 »反に荷重がカロえたと きに透明 m¾i同士が導通するように、 これらの透明 の各々は、 当該透明 電極膜の所定の位置に設けられた電極端子やリード線 (取出し電極) を介して所 定の駆動回路と電気的に接続されている。 また、 透明電«の各々は、 比較回路, マイクロプロセヅサ一, アナ口グ デジタル変^!等を用いた座標検出手段とも 電気的に接続されている。  In an analog type touch panel, two transparent electrode substrates each having a transparent electrode and a transparent electrode film (resistive film) formed on a flat plate on the transparent electrode are arranged such that the transparent electrode films face each other. It is arranged while being kept at a predetermined interval by a spacer or the like, and one of the two transparent electrodes is located on the input surface side. Then, each of these transparent electrodes is made of the transparent electrode film so that the transparent electrodes are electrically connected to each other when a load is applied from the outside of the transparent electrode located on the input surface side. It is electrically connected to a predetermined drive circuit via electrode terminals and lead wires (extraction electrodes) provided at predetermined positions. Further, each of the transparent electrodes is also electrically connected to coordinate detection means using a comparison circuit, a microprocessor, an analog digital converter, and the like.

このアナログ型の夕ヅチパネルにおいては、 入力面側に位置している透明電極 Si反の外部から荷重が加えられて透明電 同士が導通したときに、 一方の透明 電極膜における所定の端部から前記の導通が生じた箇所を経て他方の透明電¾1 における所定の端部へ電流が流れるように回路が組まれている。 そして、 この回 路における電気抵抗値は、 前記の導通が生じた箇所、 すなわち前記の荷重が加え られた箇所の位置座標に応じて変化することから、 この電気抵抗値の変化に基づ いて、 前記の荷重が加えられた箇所の位 S ^標が座標検出手段によって検出され る。 このため、 アナログ型の夕ヅチパネルに使用される透明電 については、 デジタル型の夕ツチパネルに使用される透明電極膜よりも高電気抵抗で、 かつ、 表面抵抗の均一性に優れていることが要求される。  In this analog type touch panel, when a load is applied from the outside of the transparent electrode Si located on the input surface side and the transparent electrodes are conducted, when the transparent electrodes are conducted, the predetermined end of one of the transparent electrode films is used. The circuit is arranged such that a current flows to a predetermined end of the other transparent electrode 1 through a portion where the conduction occurs. Then, the electric resistance value in this circuit changes according to the position coordinates of the location where the conduction occurs, that is, the location where the load is applied, and therefore, based on this change in the electrical resistance value, The position S ^ at which the load is applied is detected by the coordinate detecting means. For this reason, it is required that the transparent electrodes used for analog type touch panel have higher electric resistance and better uniformity of surface resistance than the transparent electrode film used for digital type touch panel. Is done.

透明導電膜としては、 従来より物理的気相蒸着法によって形成されたェ T〇膜 が種々の用途に利用されている。 ェ T〇膜は、 J^件を変えることによってそ の比抵抗を変化させることが可能な透明導 であるが、 透明性および耐久性を 兼備させた場合の比抵抗は 10—3Ω · cm未満となる。 したがって、 この ITO 膜を透明 として用いて入力精度が向上したアナログ型の夕ヅチパネルを得 るためには、 ェ T〇膜の膜厚を lOnm程度と非常に薄くする必要がある。 しか しながら、 このように極めて薄い薄膜は、 島状構造の域を脱していない ( 『薄膜 の基本技術』 (東京大学出版会) 第 90〜91頁参照) ので、 実用に耐え得るも のではない。 このため、 特にアナログ型の夕ヅチパネルに使用する透明電極 ¾ί反 の材料については、 I TO膜に代わる新たな高電気抵抗の透明導電膜を有する透 明導電積層体の開発が望まれている。 As a transparent conductive film, a T〇 film formed by a physical vapor deposition method has conventionally been used for various purposes. The T〇 film can be changed by changing Is a transparent conductive capable of changing the resistivity of the resistivity in the case where is combines transparency and durability is less than 10- 3 Ω · cm. Therefore, in order to obtain an analog type touch panel with improved input accuracy by using this ITO film as transparent, it is necessary to make the film thickness of the T film very thin, about lOnm. However, such an extremely thin film does not escape from the island structure (see “Basic Technology of Thin Films” (The University of Tokyo Press), pp. 90-91), so that it can withstand practical use. Absent. For this reason, with regard to the material for the transparent electrode used in the analog type of touch panel, development of a transparent conductive laminate having a new high-resistance transparent conductive film in place of the ITO film is desired.

ITO膜 (透明性および耐久性を させたもの) よりも高電気抵抗の膜とし ては、 Ta202 , Ti〇2 あるいは Zr〇2 の少なくとも一成分を 1〜20モ ル%含む S n〇2 で形成された高抵抗導電性膜 (特開昭 57— 109206号公 報参照) や、 透明導電性の金属酸化物薄膜中に Si〇2 , Ti〇2, Al23 , Zr〇2, MgO, Zn〇からなる群より選ばれた少なくとも 1種類の金属酸ィ匕 物を原子 比で 0. 5〜 2 %添カ卩した膜 (特開平 6— 349338号公報参照) が知られている。 Than ITO film (that is the transparency and durability) is a film of a high electrical resistance, Ta 2 0 2, S n comprising 1-20 molar% of at least one component of Ti_rei_2 or Zr_〇 22 high resistance conductive film (see JP-57- 109206 Patent Gazette) and formed of, Si_〇 transparent conductive metal oxide thin film 2, Ti_〇 2, Al 23, Zr_〇 2. A film in which at least one kind of metal oxide selected from the group consisting of MgO and Zn〇 is added in an amount of 0.5 to 2% in atomic ratio (see JP-A-6-349338) is known. ing.

しかしながら、 上記の特開昭 57-109206号公報に開示されている高抵 抗導電性膜は、 その表面抵抗が 106 Ω/ロ以上と非常に高いため、 夕ツチパネ ル用の電 としては実用的でない。 また、 この高抵抗導電性膜は湿式法によつ て製膜されるものであることから、 乾燥工程において ¾Wを 400°C以上に加熱 する必要があり、 そのため基材の材質が著しく制限されるという難点を有してい る。 However, the high-resistance conductive film disclosed in the above-mentioned Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 57-109206 has a very high surface resistance of 10 6 Ω / b or more, so that it is practically used as an electrode for sunset panels. Not a target. In addition, since this high-resistance conductive film is formed by a wet method, it is necessary to heat ¾W to 400 ° C. or more in the drying process, which significantly restricts the material of the base material. Has the drawback that

一方、 上記特開平 6— 349338号公報の魏例において具体的に開示され ている膜は、 17 nmの i?で 500〜700 ΩΖ口という高い表面抵抗を有し ており、 また、 耐久性にも優れていることから、 アナログ型の夕ヅチパネルの透 明電極膜として好適なものである。 しかしながら、 前述したように、 アナログ型 の夕ツチパネルの入力精度の高精度化に対する近年の要望の高まりに伴い、 当該 夕ヅチパネルの透明電¾1についてはその表面抵抗が概ね 800 Ω/ロ以上であ ることが望まれるに至っている。 すなわち、 上記特開平 6— 349338号公報 に具体的に開示されている表面抵抗 500〜700 Ω/口の膜ではもはや追従で きない程、 アナログ型の夕ヅチパネルの入力精度の高精度化に対する近年の要望 は厳しくなつてきている。 On the other hand, the film specifically disclosed in the above-mentioned Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 6-349338 has a high surface resistance of 500 to 700 Ω / cm at an i of 17 nm, and has a high durability. Therefore, it is suitable as a transparent electrode film of an analog type touch panel. However, as described above, the surface resistance of the transparent electrode 1 of the analog type touch panel is approximately 800 Ω / b or more with the recent demand for higher input accuracy of the analog type touch panel. It has come to be desired. That is, JP-A-6-349338 described above In recent years, there has been a growing demand for higher input accuracy of analog type touch panels so that a film having a surface resistance of 500 to 700 Ω / mouth, which is specifically disclosed in US Pat.

上記(1) 〜(4) のいずれの酸化物膜も、 2〇Onm厚での可視光の 3151率が概 ね 85%以上であるので、 その膜厚を 200nm以下にすることにより、 透明導 電膜として好適に使用することが可能になる。 この酸化物膜の膜厚が 2 OOnm を超えると可視域での光吸収が大きくなる。 一方、 酸化物膜の が 12 nm未 満では、 実用に供し得る透明導電膜を形成することが困難になる。  In any of the above oxide films (1) to (4), since the 3151 ratio of visible light at a thickness of 2〇 Onm is approximately 85% or more, the transparent conductive film can be formed by setting the film thickness to 200 nm or less. It can be suitably used as an electrocoat. When the thickness of this oxide film exceeds 200 nm, light absorption in the visible region increases. On the other hand, when the thickness of the oxide film is less than 12 nm, it is difficult to form a practically usable transparent conductive film.

したがって、 透明導電積層体ェでは、 第 1図に示すように、 上述した酸化物膜 からなる透明導電膜の HPを 12〜2 OOnmとする。 酸化物膜 (透明導電膜) の は、 透明導電積層体 Iを用いて入力精度が向上したアナログ型の夕ヅチパ ネルを製造しょうとする場合には 12〜1 OOnmとすることが好ましく、 15 〜5◦ nmとすることが特に好ましい。 また、 上述した酸化物膜(透明導 の表面抵抗は、 その糸誠および を 変えることにより適宜調整することができるが、 透明導電積層体 Iにおいては、 酸化物膜の ifと表面抵抗とを乗じることによって求めることができる当該酸化 物膜の比抵抗の値を第 1図に示す領域内の値とする。 比抵抗の値が第 1図に示す 領域から外れると、 入力精度が向上したアナログ型のタヅチパネルを製造するの に適した透明導電積層体を得ることが困難になる。 なお、 酸化物膜 (透明導 の表面抵抗は、 透明導電積層体 Iを用いて入力精度が向上したアナログ型の夕ヅ チパネルを製造しょうとする場合には、 1 00 0〜 5 0 0 0 Ω/ロとすることが 好ましい。 Therefore, in the transparent conductive laminate, as shown in FIG. 1, the HP of the transparent conductive film composed of the oxide film is set to 12 to 2 OO nm. The oxide film (transparent conductive film) preferably has a thickness of 12 to 100 nm when an analog-type solar panel with improved input accuracy is to be manufactured using the transparent conductive laminate I. It is particularly preferred that the thickness be 5 nm. Further, the surface resistance of the above-mentioned oxide film (the surface resistance of the transparent conductor can be adjusted as appropriate by changing the thickness of the oxide film. In the transparent conductive laminate I, if of the oxide film is multiplied by the surface resistance. The value of the specific resistance of the oxide film, which can be obtained by the above, is set to a value in the region shown in Fig. 1. When the specific resistance value is out of the region shown in Fig. 1, the analog type having improved input accuracy is obtained. It is difficult to obtain a transparent conductive laminate suitable for manufacturing touch panels of the type.Oxide film (the surface resistance of the transparent conductor is the same as that of the analog type with improved input accuracy using the transparent conductive laminate I). In the case of manufacturing a touch panel, it is preferable to set it to 1000 to 500 Ω / b.

For example, when a transparent conductive film is used as a transparent electrode film of a digital type touch panel, the transparent conductive film is formed by using a predetermined mask at the time of film formation, or performing a predetermined patterning after film formation. By doing so, a desired parallel stripe pattern is formed. When the transparent conductive film is used as a transparent material for an analog type touch panel, the transparent conductive film can be formed by using a predetermined mask as necessary at the time of simulation, or as required after forming the film. By performing the evening, it is formed into one flat membrane.

そして、 透明導電積層体 Iを構成する透明導電膜の中でも、 インジウム (I n) と ¾IS ( Ζ η) の合量に占めるインジウム (I n) の原子比 I n/ ( I n+ Z n) が 5 0〜9 0 at% (ただし、 5 0 at%を除く。 ) である透明導電膜は、 前述した ように目標とする表面抵抗値を有するものを精度よく形成し易いものであるので、 本発明の透明導電積層体 Iのうちで当該組成の透明導電膜を備えたものは、 目的 とする入力精度の夕ツチパネルを容易に得るための構成部材またはその材料とし て好適である。  Among the transparent conductive films constituting the transparent conductive laminate I, the atomic ratio of indium (In) to the total amount of indium (In) and ¾IS (Ζη) is In / (In + Zn). Since the transparent conductive film of 50 to 90 at% (excluding 50 at%) is easy to form precisely with a target surface resistance value as described above, Among the transparent conductive laminates I of the present invention, those provided with a transparent conductive film of the above composition are suitable as constituent members or materials for easily obtaining a touch panel having desired input accuracy.

次に、 本発明の透明導電積層体 IIについて説明する。  Next, the transparent conductive laminate II of the present invention will be described.

本発明の透明導電積層体 IIの體は、 前述したように、 当該透明導電積層体 II を構成している透明導電膜が特定の雜成の酸化物膜からなる点にあるので、 まず、 当該特定の酸化物膜からなる透明導 について説明する。  As described above, the transparent conductive laminate II of the present invention is characterized in that the transparent conductive film constituting the transparent conductive laminate II is formed of a specific composite oxide film. A transparent conductor made of a specific oxide film will be described.

この透明導電膜は、 前述のように、 インジウム (In) , 亜鉛 (Ζη) , チタ ン (Ti) , ガリウム (Ga) および酸素 (〇) を構成元素とする酸化物膜から なる。 当該酸化物膜は、 その製 ii 程での不可避的な混入物を除き、 前記の構成 元素のみからなる。  As described above, this transparent conductive film is formed of an oxide film containing indium (In), zinc (η), titanium (Ti), gallium (Ga), and oxygen (〇) as constituent elements. The oxide film is composed of only the above-mentioned constituent elements except for inevitable contaminants in the production process.

そして、 上記の酸化物膜においては、 インジウム (In) と ¾|g (Ζη) の合 量に占めるインジウム (In) の原子比 In/ (ェ n+Zn) が 20〜90at%、 チタン (Ti) とガリウム (Ga) の合量の原子比 (Ti+Ga) / (In + Z n + Ti+Ga)が l〜20at%である。  In the above oxide film, the atomic ratio In / (en + Zn) of indium (In) to the total amount of indium (In) and ¾ | g (Ζη) is 20 to 90 at%, and titanium (Ti) ) And gallium (Ga), the atomic ratio (Ti + Ga) / (In + Zn + Ti + Ga) is l-20at%.

透明導電積層体 IIにおいて、 前記インジウム (In) の原子比 In/ (In+ Zn) および前記チタン (Ti) とガリウム (Ga) の合量の原子比 (Ti+G a) / (In + Zn + Ti + Ga) を上記の範囲に限定する理由は、 1 at%未満 では酸ィ匕物膜の電気抵抗が低くなりすぎ、 20 at%を超えると酸化物膜の電気抵 抗が高くなりすぎるからである。  In the transparent conductive laminate II, the atomic ratio In / (In + Zn) of the indium (In) and the atomic ratio of the total amount of the titanium (Ti) and gallium (Ga) (Ti + Ga) / (In + Zn + The reason for limiting (Ti + Ga) to the above range is that if it is less than 1 at%, the electrical resistance of the oxide film becomes too low, and if it exceeds 20 at%, the electrical resistance of the oxide film becomes too high. It is.

上記インジウム (In) の原子比 In/ (Ιη+Ζη) は、 所望の表面抵抗値 を有する透明導電膜を精度よく形成し易いという観点から、 50〜9 Oat%であ ることがより好ましい。 また、 上記チタン (Ti) とガリウム (Ga) の合量の 原子比 (Ti+Ga) / (In + Zn + Ti+Ga) は、 5〜18at%であるこ とがより好ましい。  The atomic ratio In / (Ιη + Ζη) of the indium (In) is more preferably 50 to 9 Oat% from the viewpoint that a transparent conductive film having a desired surface resistance can be easily formed with high accuracy. Further, the atomic ratio (Ti + Ga) / (In + Zn + Ti + Ga) of the total amount of titanium (Ti) and gallium (Ga) is more preferably 5 to 18 at%.

ガリウム (Ga) は酸ィ匕物膜の透明性および »安定性をそれそれ向上させる うえで有用な成分であるので、 当該ガリウム (Ga) の原子比 Ga/ (In + Z n + Ti + Ga) は 8〜 15 at%とすることが好ましい。  Since gallium (Ga) is a useful component for improving the transparency and stability of the oxide film, the atomic ratio of the gallium (Ga) is Ga / (In + Zn + Ti + Ga). ) Is preferably 8 to 15 at%.

上記(1) 〜(4) のいずれの酸化物膜も、 3 OOnm厚での可視光の透過率が概 ね 85%以上である。 膜厚が 3 OOnmを超えると、 可視光域での光吸収が大き くなる。 また、 勝が 12nm未満では、 実用に供し得る透明導電膜を形成する ことが困難になる。 したがって、 透明導電積層体 IIにおいては、 当該透明導電積 層体 IIを構成している透明導識 (酸化物膜) の膜厚を 12〜300nmとする ことが好ましい。 当該酸化物膜 (透明導電膜) の膜厚は、 透明導電積層体 IIを用 いて入力精度が向上したアナログ型の夕ツチパネルを製造しょうとする場合には 12〜1 OOnmとすることが好ましく、 15〜50 nmとすることが特に好ま しい。  In any of the oxide films (1) to (4), the transmittance of visible light at a thickness of 300 nm is approximately 85% or more. When the film thickness exceeds 30 nm, light absorption in the visible light region increases. If the win is less than 12 nm, it will be difficult to form a practically usable transparent conductive film. Therefore, in the transparent conductive laminate II, it is preferable that the thickness of the transparent conductive material (oxide film) constituting the transparent conductive laminate II be 12 to 300 nm. The thickness of the oxide film (transparent conductive film) is preferably 12 to 100 nm when an analog-type touch panel with improved input accuracy is to be manufactured using the transparent conductive laminate II. It is particularly preferable to set it to 15 to 50 nm.

また、 上述した酸化物膜 (透明導電膜) の表面抵抗は、 その,および を 変えることにより適宜調整することができる。 この表面抵抗は、 透明導電積層体 IIを用いて入力精度が向上したアナログ型の夕ツチパネルを製造しょうとする場 合には、 1000〜5000Ω/Οとすることが好ましい。  Further, the surface resistance of the above-described oxide film (transparent conductive film) can be appropriately adjusted by changing the values of and. This surface resistance is preferably set to 1000 to 5000 Ω / Ο when an analog type touch panel with improved input accuracy is manufactured using the transparent conductive laminate II.

透明導電積層体 11は、 当該透明導電積層体 11を構成している透明導電膜が上述 した組成を有する酸化物膜からなるものであり、 当該酸化物膜 (透明導電膜) の 开 および当該酸化物膜 (透明導電膜) 以外の構成部材は、 前述した本発明の透 明導電積層体ェにおけると同じである。 したがって、 酸化物膜 (透明導電膜) の 开狱および当該酸化物膜 (透明導電膜) 以外の構成部材についての説明は、 ここ では省略する。  In the transparent conductive laminate 11, the transparent conductive film constituting the transparent conductive laminate 11 is formed of an oxide film having the above-described composition. The components other than the material film (transparent conductive film) are the same as those in the transparent conductive laminate of the present invention described above. Therefore, description of the oxide film (transparent conductive film) and constituent members other than the oxide film (transparent conductive film) will be omitted here.

以上説明した本発明の透明導電積層体 11は、 透明導電膜の透明性および耐熱安 定性が高いという点で、 前述した透明導電積層体ェよりも透明導電性材料として 好ましいものである。 そして、 透明導電積層体 IIを構成している透明導電膜は、 その膨が 12〜300nmのときの表面抵抗を容易に 800Ω /口〜 1 OkQ とすることができるものであるので、 前述した透明導電積層体ェと同様に、 夕ヅチパネル、 特にアナログ型の夕ヅチパネルの構成部材またはその材料として 好適である。 また、 電子写真複写基体等としても好適である。 The transparent conductive laminate 11 of the present invention described above is preferable as a transparent conductive material over the transparent conductive laminate described above in that the transparent conductive film has high transparency and high heat stability. The transparent conductive film constituting the transparent conductive laminate II can easily increase the surface resistance when its swelling is 12 to 300 nm from 800 Ω / port to 1 OkQ. Therefore, similar to the above-described transparent conductive laminate, it is suitable as a component member or a material of a back panel, particularly, an analog back panel. It is also suitable as an electrophotographic copying substrate.

透明導電積層体 IIを構成する透明導電膜の中でも、 インジウム (In) と醒 (Zn) の合量に占めるインジウム (In) の原子比 In/ (In + Zn)が 5 0〜9 Oat%である透明導電膜は、 前述したように目標とする表面抵抗値を有す るものを精度よく形成し易いものであるので、 本発明の透明導電積層体 11のうち で当該組成の透明導電膜を備えたものは、 目的とする入力精度の夕ツチパネルを 容易に得るための構成部材またはその材料として好適である。  Among the transparent conductive films constituting the transparent conductive laminate II, the atomic ratio In / (In + Zn) of indium (In) in the total amount of indium (In) and awake (Zn) is 50 to 9 Oat%.

次に、 本発明の積層体製造方法 Iについて説明する。  Next, the method of manufacturing a laminate I of the present invention will be described.

Things.

ここで、 上記の電気絶縁性の透明 ¾«·は、 本発明の透明導電積層体 Iについて の説明の中で既に述べたように、 電気絶縁性を有し、 可視光の透過率が概ね 70 %以上であるものであればよく、 その具体例は、 本発明の透明導電積層体 Iにつ いての説明の中で述べた通りである。  Here, as described above in the description of the transparent conductive laminate I of the present invention, the above-mentioned electrically insulating transparent material has electrical insulating properties and has a visible light transmittance of approximately 70%. %, And specific examples thereof are as described in the description of the transparent conductive laminate I of the present invention.

また、 透明基材上に形成する透明導電膜は、 上記の組成および電気的特性を有 する酸ィ匕物膜からなるものである。 当該透明導電膜の中でも、 本発明の透明導電 積層体ェについての説明の中で既に述べたように、 インジウム (In) と亜鉛 (Zn) の合量に占めるインジウム (In) の原子比 InZ (In+Zn) が 5 0〜90at%である酸化物膜からなるものがより好ましく、 チタン (Ti) の原 子比 Ti/ (In + Zn+Ti) については 1 Oat%以下であるものがより好ま しい。 Further, the transparent conductive film formed on the transparent substrate is made of an oxide film having the above-described composition and electrical characteristics. Among the transparent conductive films, as already described in the description of the transparent conductive laminate of the present invention, indium (In) and zinc are used. More preferably, the oxide film has an atomic ratio InZ (In + Zn) of 50 to 90 at% to the total amount of (Zn), and the atomic ratio of titanium (Ti) is Ti / ( As for (In + Zn + Ti), those having 1 Oat% or less are more preferable.

上記の酸化物膜からなる透明導電膜を形成するために本発明の積層体製造方法 ェで採用する物理的気相蒸着法の具体例としては、 スパヅ夕リング法, イオンプ レ一ティング法等が挙げられる。 均一性や透明 との密着性に優れた透明導電 膜を得るうえからは、 一元または多元のスパヅタリング法 (反応性スパヅタリン グ法を含む。 ) を適用することがより好ましい。  Specific examples of the physical vapor deposition method employed in the method for producing a laminate of the present invention for forming the transparent conductive film composed of the above oxide film include a sputtering method and an ion plating method. No. From the standpoint of obtaining a transparent conductive film having excellent uniformity and excellent adhesion to the transparency, it is more preferable to apply a single or multiple sputtering method (including a reactive sputtering method).

物理的気相蒸着法としてスパヅタリング法を適用する場合、 スパヅ夕リングの 方式としては RFスパッタリング, DCスパッタリング等、 各種の方式を適用す ることができるが、 生産性や得られる酸化物膜の膜 の観点から、 工業的には 一般的に DCスパヅ夕リングが好ましい。 DCスパヅ夕リングのスパヅ夕リング 条件の一例を挙げるとすれば、 以下のようになる。  When the sputtering method is applied as the physical vapor deposition method, various methods such as RF sputtering and DC sputtering can be applied as the sputtering method, but the productivity and the resulting oxide film can be used. In view of this, the DC sparging is generally preferred industrially. An example of the condition of the DC ring for the DC ring is as follows.

すなわち、 スパヅ夕リング雰囲気 (製膜時の雰囲気) は Heガス, Neガス, Arガス, Krガス, Xeガス, Rnガス等からなる不活性ガス雰囲気、 または 不活性ガスと酸素ガスとの混合ガス雰囲気とし、 スパヅ夕時の雰囲 (スパヅ 夕圧) は 1 X 10— 2Pa〜5Pa程度、 夕一ゲヅト印加電圧 (放電電圧) は 10 00V未満とする。 得られる透明導電膜の電気抵抗値についての経時安定性を重 視する場合には、 スパヅ夕リング雰囲気中の酸素^は低い (例えば 5x1 CT3 Pa以下) 方が好ましい。 スパッタリング時の雰囲^ E (スパヅ夕圧) が 1 X 1 〇—2Ρ a未満ではプラズマの安定性が悪く、 5 Paを超えると得られる透明導電 膜の基材への密着性が悪くなる。 また、 夕一ゲヅト印加電圧 (放電電圧) が 10 00V以上では透明導電膜がプラズマによるダメージを受け、 目的とする電気的 特性を有する透明導電膜が得られなかったり、 夕ーゲットが割れる等の問題が発 生し易い。 夕一ゲヅト印加電圧 (放電電圧) の好ましい値は 800 V未満、 さら に好ましくは 500 V未満である。 高品質の透明導電膜を得るためにはタ一ゲヅ ト印加電圧 (放電電圧) をできるだけ低くすることが好ましいが、 極端に低い場 合には生産性の問題が生じてくる。 したがって、 夕一ゲヅト印加電圧 (放電€H) の最適値は、 要求される透明導電膜の品質と生産性とを総合的に考慮したうえで 適宜選択される。 また、 製膜時の基板温度 (透明基材の温度) は、 透明基材の耐 熱性に応じて、 当該透明基材が熱により変形や変質を起こさない温度範囲内で適 宜選択される。 That is, the sputtering atmosphere (atmosphere during film formation) is an inert gas atmosphere composed of He gas, Ne gas, Ar gas, Kr gas, Xe gas, Rn gas, or a mixed gas of inert gas and oxygen gas. an atmosphere, Supadzu evening when Kiri囲(Supadzu evening pressure) 1 X 10- 2 Pa~5Pa about, evening one Gedzuto applied voltage (discharge voltage) is less than 10 00V. When importance is placed on the temporal stability of the electrical resistance value of the obtained transparent conductive film, the oxygen in the sputtering atmosphere is preferably low (for example, 5 × 1 CT 3 Pa or less). If the atmosphere during sputtering ^ E (spa pressure) is less than 1 X 1 〇— 2 〇 a, the plasma stability is poor, and if it exceeds 5 Pa, the resulting transparent conductive film has poor adhesion to the substrate. . If the gate application voltage (discharge voltage) is 1000 V or more, the transparent conductive film is damaged by plasma, and a transparent conductive film having desired electrical characteristics cannot be obtained, or the evening target is cracked. Is easy to occur. The preferred value of the gate application voltage (discharge voltage) is less than 800 V, and more preferably less than 500 V. In order to obtain a high-quality transparent conductive film, it is preferable to reduce the target applied voltage (discharge voltage) as much as possible. However, if the target voltage is extremely low, productivity problems arise. Therefore, evening gate applied voltage (discharge € H) The optimum value is appropriately selected in consideration of the required quality and productivity of the transparent conductive film in a comprehensive manner. Further, the substrate temperature (temperature of the transparent substrate) at the time of film formation is appropriately selected according to the heat resistance of the transparent substrate within a temperature range in which the transparent substrate is not deformed or deteriorated by heat.

ターゲット (スパッタリングターゲット) は、 目的とする透明導電膜を製膜す ることができさえすればメタル夕一ゲットであってもよいし酸化物夕一ゲットで あってもよいが、 酸化物夕一ゲヅトを用いることがより好ましい。酸化物夕ーゲ ットを用いる場合の当該酸化物夕一ゲットの糸 は、 スパッ夕率および目的とす る透明導電膜の組成に応じて適宜選択可能である。 ただし、 酸化物ターゲットの 相対密度は 8 0 %以上であることが好ましく、 より好ましくは 9 0 %以上であり、 更に好ましくは 9 5 %以上である。 酸化物夕一ゲヅトの相対密度が 8 0 %未満で ある場合には、 製^^が遅くなり、 また、 夕一ゲヅト自体およびそれから得ら れる膜が黒化しやすくなる。 酸ィ匕物からなる相体密度の高いターゲヅトを得るた めには、 C I P (冷間静水圧) 等で成型後に H I P (熱間静水圧)等により焼結 することや、 焼結助剤を用いることが好ましい。 ここに相対密度とは、 酸化物の 糸誠から計算した理論密度に対する焼結体の実際の密度を面分率で示したもので ある (以下同じ。 ) 。  The target (sputtering target) may be a metal or an oxide as long as a target transparent conductive film can be formed. It is more preferable to use a gate. In the case of using an oxide getter, the yarn of the oxide getter can be appropriately selected depending on the sputter rate and the composition of the intended transparent conductive film. However, the relative density of the oxide target is preferably at least 80%, more preferably at least 90%, further preferably at least 95%. If the relative density of the oxide gate is less than 80%, the production becomes slow, and the evening gate itself and the film obtained therefrom tend to be blackened. In order to obtain a target having a high phase body density composed of oxidized sardines, sintering by HIP (hot isostatic pressure) or the like after molding by CIP (cold isostatic pressure), or sintering aid Preferably, it is used. Here, the relative density indicates the actual density of the sintered body with respect to the theoretical density calculated from the oxide density in terms of area fraction (the same applies hereinafter).

使用時に異常放電が誘発されることや夕一ゲットに割れが生じることを防 止し、 かつ、 スパッタリング雰囲気中の酸素纖の影響を抑えながら、 電気抵抗 が実質的に均一な透明導電膜を得るうえからは、 後述する本発明の夕一ゲット T 1 を用いることが好ましい。  Obtain a transparent conductive film with substantially uniform electrical resistance while preventing the occurrence of abnormal discharge or cracking in the getter during use and suppressing the influence of oxygen fibers in the sputtering atmosphere. From above, it is preferable to use the evening get T 1 of the present invention described later.

上述した物理的気相蒸着法によつて前述した透明 上に所定の酸ィ匕物膜から なる透明導電膜を形成することにより、 目的とする透明導電積層体を得ることが できる。 このときの透明導電膜の开狱は、 本発明の透明導電積層体ェについての 説明の中で既に述べたように、 1枚の平膜状であってもよいし、 目的とする透明 導電積層体の用途等に応じた所定形状であってもよい。  By forming a transparent conductive film composed of a predetermined oxide film on the above-mentioned transparent material by the above-mentioned physical vapor deposition method, a desired transparent conductive laminate can be obtained. As described above in the description of the transparent conductive laminate of the present invention, Δ of the transparent conductive film at this time may be a single flat film or a target transparent conductive laminate. It may have a predetermined shape according to the use of the body and the like.

そして、 より透明性の高い透明導電膜を備えた透明導電積層体を得るうえから は、 上述のようにして透明導電膜を形成した後、 当該透明導電膜の透明性をより 向上させるためのァニ一リングを行ってもよい。 上記のァニ一リングは、 透明導電膜を酸素分圧 1 OhP a以上の雰囲気下にお いて 60°C〜透明 ¾¾Tの軟ィ匕点 未満の に加熱することによって行うこと ができる。 アニーリング時の雰囲気の全圧は、 10hPa〜10000hP aの範囲内で適宜選択可能である。 また、 アニーリング時の雰囲気には、 酸素以 外の成分として N2 , He, Ar等の不活性ガスが含まれていてもよい。 したが つて、 当該アニーリングは大気中 (酸素分圧は約 203 hP a) においても行う ことができ、 大気中で行うことが最も簡便である。 Then, in order to obtain a transparent conductive laminate including a transparent conductive film having higher transparency, after forming the transparent conductive film as described above, the key for further improving the transparency of the transparent conductive film. Needling may be performed. The above-mentioned annealing can be performed by heating the transparent conductive film to a temperature lower than the softening point of 60 ° C. to a transparent temperature T in an atmosphere having an oxygen partial pressure of 1 OhPa or more. The total pressure of the atmosphere during annealing can be appropriately selected within the range of 10 hPa to 10,000 hPa. The atmosphere at the time of annealing may contain an inert gas such as N 2 , He, or Ar as a component other than oxygen. Therefore, the annealing can be performed in the atmosphere (oxygen partial pressure is about 203 hPa), and is most conveniently performed in the atmosphere.

アニーリング時の温度が 60°C以上であれば、 透明性向上の効果が現れる。 た だし、 前述した透明 ¾Wの軟ィ匕点 未満の 範囲であれば、 高温でァニ一リ ングするほど透明性向上の効果が早く現れる。 したがって、 透明基材が有機高分 子材料からなるものである場合には、 当該透明基材の材質により異なるが、 概ね 80〜200°Cで 1〜5時間程度アニーリングすることが好ましい。 また、 透明 基材がガラスからなるものである場合には、 概ね 150〜300°〇で15分〜1 時間程度ァニーリングすることが好ましい。  If the temperature at the time of annealing is 60 ° C or more, the effect of improving the transparency appears. However, in the range of less than the softening point of the above-mentioned transparency ¾W, the higher the temperature, the faster the effect of improving the transparency appears. Therefore, when the transparent substrate is made of an organic polymer material, annealing is preferably performed at about 80 to 200 ° C. for about 1 to 5 hours, although it depends on the material of the transparent substrate. When the transparent substrate is made of glass, it is preferable to anneal at about 150 to 300 ° C. for about 15 minutes to 1 hour.

ここで、 上記の電気絶縁性の透明基材は、 本発明の透明導電積層体 IIについて の説明の中で既に述べたように、 本発明の透明導電積層体 Iにおける透明基材と 同じもの、 すなわち、 電気絶縁性を有し、 可視光の 率が概ね 70%以上であ るものであればよく、 その具体例は、 本発明の透明導電積層体 Iについての説明 の中で述べた通りである。  Here, the electrically insulating transparent substrate is, as already described in the description of the transparent conductive laminate II of the present invention, the same as the transparent substrate in the transparent conductive laminate I of the present invention, That is, any material having electrical insulation and a visible light ratio of about 70% or more may be used. Specific examples thereof are as described in the description of the transparent conductive laminate I of the present invention. is there.

また、 透明基材上に形成する透明導電膜は、 上記の組成を有する酸化物膜から なるものである。 この透明導電膜は、 酸素 (〇) も含めてその組成を上記の範囲 内で適宜調整することにより、 前述した透明導電 層体 Iにおける透明導電膜よ りも透明性およひ 安定性に優れた透明導電膜を得ることができるものである。 当該透明導電膜の中でも、 本発明の透明導電積層体 Πについての説明の中で既 に述べたように、 インジウム (In) と MIS (Zn)の合量に占めるインジウム (In)の原子比 In/ (In + Zn)が 50〜9 Oat%である酸化物膜からな るものがより好ましく、 チタン (Ti) とガリウム (Ga)の合量の原子比 (T i+Ga) / (In + Zn + Ti+Ga) については 5〜 18at%であるものが より好ましい。 また、 ガリウム (Ga)の原子比 Ga/ (ェ n + Zn + Ti+G a) については 8〜15at%であるものが好ましい。 Further, the transparent conductive film formed on the transparent substrate is made of an oxide film having the above composition. The composition of this transparent conductive film, including oxygen (〇), is within the above range. By appropriately adjusting the above, a transparent conductive film having more excellent transparency and stability than the transparent conductive film in the transparent conductive layer body I described above can be obtained. Among the transparent conductive films, as described above in the description of the transparent conductive laminate 量 of the present invention, the atomic ratio of indium (In) to the total amount of indium (In) and MIS (Zn) is In. It is more preferable to use an oxide film in which / (In + Zn) is 50 to 9 Oat%, and the atomic ratio of the total amount of titanium (Ti) and gallium (Ga) (T i + Ga) / (In + More preferably, the content of Zn + Ti + Ga) is 5 to 18 at%.

そして、 物理的気相蒸着法としてスパヅ夕リング法を適用する場合、 スパヅタ リングの方式としては RFスパヅ夕リング, DCスパッタリング等、 各種の方式 を適用することができるが、 生産性や得られる酸化物膜の膜特性の から、 ェ 業的には一般的に DCスパヅ夕リングが好ましい。 DCスパヅ夕リングのスパヅ 夕リング条件の一例としては、 本発明の積層体製造方法ェについての説明の中で 挙げたものと同じものが挙げられる。  When the sputtering method is applied as the physical vapor deposition method, various methods such as RF sputtering and DC sputtering can be applied as the sputtering method, but the productivity and the resulting oxidation can be applied.

そして、 より透明性の高い透明導電膜を備えた透明導電積層体を得るうえから は、 上述のようにして透明導電膜を形成した後、 当該透明導電膜の透明性をより 向上させるためのアニーリングを行うことが好ましい。 このアニーリングは、 本 発明の積層体製造方法 Iについての説明の中で述べたと同様にして行うことがで 次に、 本発明の夕一ゲヅト Ί\ について説明する。  Then, in order to obtain a transparent conductive laminate including a transparent conductive film having higher transparency, after forming the transparent conductive film as described above, annealing for further improving the transparency of the transparent conductive film is performed.

VnO: n番目の押圧点での理論電圧 上記の式中、 I Vn— Vn0 Iは測定電圧の理論電圧からのズレを示し、 この値 が小さいほど押圧位置の誤認が少ない夕ツチパネルが得られる。 また、 上記の式 中の I Vn+ 1— Vn Iは隣合う 2つの押圧点での測定電圧の差を示し、 この値が大 きいほど押圧位置の差を電位差として精度よく検出し易くなる。 VnO: Theoretical voltage at the n-th pressing point In the above formula, I Vn—V n0 I indicates the deviation of the measured voltage from the theoretical voltage. The smaller this value is, the less misleading the pressed position is, the more the touch panel is obtained. . In the above equation, I Vn +1 — Vn I indicates a difference between measured voltages at two adjacent pressing points, and the larger this value is, the easier it is to detect the difference between the pressing positions as a potential difference with high accuracy.

各 例で得られた夕ヅチパネルについて、 上記の式によってその検出誤差を 求めたところ、 表 1 6に示すように、 いずれの夕ツチパネルにおいてもその値は 0. 1未満であった。 このことから、 各夕ヅチパネルは入力精度の高いものであ ることが確認された。  When the detection error was calculated by the above equation for the sunset panel obtained in each case, as shown in Table 16, the value was less than 0.1 in all the sunset panels. From this, it was confirmed that each sunset panel had high input accuracy.
