OXIDE SINTERED BODY, SPUTTERING TARGET, AND OXIDE SEMICONDUCTOR THIN FILM OBTAINED USING SPUTTERING TARGET
Provided are: a sintered oxide which achieves low carrier density and high carrier mobility when configured as an oxide semiconductor thin-film by using the sputtering method; and a sputtering target using the same. This sintered oxide contains indium, gallium and magnesium as oxides. It is preferable for the gallium content to be 0.20-0.45, inclusive, in terms of an atomic ratio (Ga/(In+Ga)), the magnesium content to be at least 0.0001 and less than 0.05 in terms of an atomic ratio (Mg/(In+Ga+Mg)), and the sintering to occur at 1,200-1,550° C., inclusive. An amorphous oxide semiconductor thin-film obtained by forming this sintered oxide as a sputtering target is capable of achieving a carrier density of less than 3.0×1018cm−3, and a carrier mobility of 10 cm2V−1sec−1 or higher.
