Abstract
The object of this invention is to provide a high quality titanium target for sputtering capable of reducing the impurities that cause generation of particles and abnormal discharge, which is free from fractures and cracks during high power sputtering (high rate sputtering), and capable of stabilizing the sputtering properties and effectively suppressing the generation of particles upon deposition. This invention is able to solve foregoing problems using a high purity titanium target for sputtering containing, as additive components, 3 to 10 mass ppm of S and 0.5 to 3 mass ppm of Si, and in which the purity of the target excluding additive components and gas components is 99.995 mass percent or higher.
