Abstract

Provided is a Ti—Nb alloy sputtering target containing 0.1 to 30 at % of Nb, the remainder of Ti and unavoidable impurities; and the Ti—Nb alloy sputtering target is characterized by having an oxygen content of 400 wtppm or less. Since the target in the present disclosure has a favorable surface texture with a low oxygen content and is readily processable due to the low hardness of the target, the Ti—Nb alloy sputtering target yields a superior effect of being able to suppress the generation of particles during sputtering.
