Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The ceramic material of the present invention contains a crystalline phase of a complex oxide containing a Group II element M and a rare earth element RE. The Group II element M is Sr, Ca, or Ba. An XRD diagram of the ceramic material shows a first new peak between peaks derived from the (040) plane and the (320) plane of MRE 2 O 4 . Such a ceramic material may be manufactured by, for example, preparing a material containing MRE 2 O 4 or a material capable of reacting in thermal spray flame to produce MRE 2 O 4 as a thermal spray material, and thermally spraying the thermal spray material onto a predetermined object.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A ceramic material includes a crystalline phase of a complex oxide containing a Group II element M and a rare earth element RE, wherein the Group II element M is Sr, Ca, or Ba, wherein an XRD diagram of the ceramic material shows a first new peak between peaks derived from the (040) plane and the (320) plane of MRE 2 O 4 , which first new peak is a peak of a ceramic material containing a complex oxide other than MRE 2 O 4 , and wherein the M/RE mole ratio obtained from results of an elemental analysis of the entirety of the ceramic material is less than 0.48. 2. The ceramic material according to claim 1 , wherein the XRD diagram of the ceramic material shows a second new peak between peaks derived from the (410) plane and the (311) plane of MRE 2 O 4 , which second new peak is a peak of a ceramic material containing a complex oxide other than MRE 2 O 4 . 3. The ceramic material according to claim 1 , wherein the ceramic material contains a MRE 2 O 4 crystalline phase. 4. The ceramic material according to claim 1 , wherein the Group II element M is Sr, and the rare earth element RE is Y, Er, or Yb. 5. The ceramic material according to claim 1 , wherein the ratio (A)/(B) of the intensity (A) of the first new peak to the intensity (B) of the peak derived from the (320) plane of MRE 2 O 4 is larger than 0.8. 6. The ceramic material according to claim 1 , wherein the O/RE mole ratio obtained from the results of an elemental analysis of the entirety of the ceramic material is 2.1 or less. 7. The ceramic material according to claim 1 , wherein the ceramic material has a porosity of 5% or less. 8. A semiconductor manufacturing apparatus member covered with the ceramic material according to claim 1 . 9. A method for manufacturing the ceramic material according to claim 1 , the method comprising preparing a thermal spray material, the thermal spray material being a material containing MRE 2 O 4 or a material capable of reacting in thermal spray flame to produce MRE 2 O 4 and thermally spraying the thermal spray material onto a predetermined object. 10. A ceramic material includes a crystalline phase of a complex oxide containing a Group II element M and a rare earth element RE, wherein the Group II element M is Sr, Ca, or Ba, wherein an XRD diagram of the ceramic material shows a first new peak between peaks derived from the (040) plane and the (320) plane of MRE 2 O 4 , which first new peak is a peak of a ceramic material containing a complex oxide other than MRE 2 O 4 , and wherein the ceramic material has a porosity of 5% or less.
