Description

Etching bath composition for transparent conductive film
Technical field
The present invention relates to the etching bath composition that a kind of nesa coating that is used for liquid-crystal display (LCD) and electroluminescent display (ELD) display element etc. is used.
Background technology
Nesa coating as being used for liquid-crystal display (LCD) and electroluminescent display (ELD) display element etc. has tin indium oxide (ITO), indium zinc oxide (IZO), Indium sesquioxide, stannic oxide, zinc oxide etc., wherein ITO film, IZO film are being widely used.As the layout method of nesa coating generally is after making nesa coating with film forming such as sputtering methods on the substrate of glass etc., forms the resist figure by photolithography, and the corrosion nesa coating forms the method for electrode pattern.
The corrosive fluid of nesa coating was to use the corrosive fluid that contains dissolved oxygen indium composition of (1) ferric chloride in aqueous solution, (2) acid iodide aqueous solution, (3) phosphate aqueous solution, (4) hydrochloric acid-aqueous nitric acid (chloroazotic acid) and (5) oxalic acid aqueous solution etc. in the past.
As the ITO film, be to use fundamental characteristics such as resistivity and the good many crystallizations ITO film of transmissivity as nesa coating in the past, but in recent years along with maximization, high precision int, the high performance of display element, require to improve working accuracy, the low temperatureization of technological temperature, high surface etc., as the nesa coating that satisfies these requirements, noncrystalline ITO film, IZO film have been brought into use.
The corrosive fluid of the nesa coating of noncrystalline ITO film, IZO film etc., the little oxalic acid aqueous solution of injury that is using cheapness, good stability widely, having practical corrosion speed and AI is connected up., with the corrosion of oxalic acid aqueous solution, there is the oxalic acid indium crystalline problem of separating out easily to nesa coating.
Usually, because corrosive fluid recycles in corrosion device repeatedly, so when using the corrosive fluid corrosion nesa coating that contains oxalic acid, the concentration of the indium in the corrosive fluid rises and separates out the oxalic acid indium easily.In case after separating out, just carry out crystalline growth, form thick crystallisate and paying in device as nuclear.Its result, the problem of the obstruction of the bad and strainer of the action of generation device, injury substrate etc.
Because the oxalic acid indium is extremely to be difficult to dissolved salt, so be difficult to be dissolved in the corrosive fluid, also is difficult in addition be dissolved in the water again.For this reason, in removal is dissolved in device separate out crystallisate the time, operation or remove with soup dissolving method such as remove by hand after the corrosive fluid in the device can only being discharged will be related to like this that productivity descends, the raising of cost.Can remove crystallisate or can only be to change strainer with certain methods plugged screen in addition, this still will be related to, and productivity descends, the problem of the raising of cost.Therefore, contain the corrosion of the corrosive fluid of oxalic acid to nesa coating for use, the problem that forms maximum is that the crystallization of oxalic acid indium is separated out easily.
As solution to the problems described above, can enumerate using above-mentioned oxalic acid Indium sesquioxide in addition to carry out the dissolved composition, but, ferric chloride in aqueous solution side etch amount is big, contains the shortcoming to the iron of the least good influence of semi-conductor.The acid iodide aqueous solution has the iodine that dissociates easily in addition, the shortcoming that poor stability and valency are high.Then wiring has injury to phosphate aqueous solution to AI, is easy to generate the shortcoming of etching residue.Have again, hydrochloric acid-nitric acid mixed solution (chloroazotic acid) exist through the time be changed significantly technology controlling and process difficulty, the shortcoming that can not transmit.
And then, be in the corrosion operation to the nesa coating of noncrystalline ITO film and IZO film etc. of corrosive fluid of principal constituent in order to oxalic acid, there is the problem that is easy to generate etching residue.
As the method that addresses these problems, the present inventor proposed to contain from oxalic acid and poly-sulfoacid compound and polyoxyethylene-polyoxypropylene block copolymers constitute select the group more than a kind or 2 kinds compound, the ITO film is with etching bath composition (patent documentation 1).The ITO film that has also proposed to contain oxalic acid and aminocarboxylic acid or trolamine in addition with etching bath composition (patent documentation 2), contain oxalic acid and carboxylic acid amorphousness ITO film with etching reagent (patent documentation 3), contain the ITO film of perfluoralkyl phosphate salt, oxalic acid and water and IZO film with etching bath composition (patent documentation 4), contain ITO film that oxalic acid and fluorine are tensio-active agent and IZO film usefulness etching bath composition (patent documentation 5) etc.These corrosive fluids that contain oxalic acid have practical corrosion speed can see the effect that prevents residue, but does not recognize the problem that the crystallization of oxalic acid indium is separated out fully, still is in unsolved always state.
And then, as the corrosive fluid that does not contain oxalic acid, the amorphousness ITO corrosive component (patent documentation 6) etc. that is made of the aqueous solution that contains thionamic acid and polyethylene oxide alkyl ethers vitriol, polyoxyethylene alkyl phenyl ether sulfate or polyoxyalkylene alkyl ether phosphate has been proposed.Though but these corrosive fluids that do not contain oxalic acid do not separate out the oxalic acid crystallization effect that prevents etching residue arranged, more but exist corrosion speed slow with the aqueous solution that contains oxalic acid, the problem of degradation under the productivity.
As previously discussed, in the known corrosive fluids as principal constituent such as mineral acid of the dissolved oxygen indium beyond the oxalic acid, have big problem in the point of corrosive characteristic and corrosion stability etc., using, still do not exist with oxalic acid be the corrosive fluid that the corrosive fluid of principal constituent is equal to good characteristic.In addition, also do not exist, in oxalic acid is the corrosive fluid of principal constituent, keep its excellent characteristic, and then can suppress the corrosive fluid that the crystallization of oxalic acid indium is separated out.
Therefore, now as to being that the corrosion process that the corrosive fluid of principal constituent is used for containing the nesa coating of indium prevents the countermeasure that crystallization is separated out with oxalic acid, be adopt after will using corrosive fluid with nano-film filtration regenerated method, to device keep in repair and adopt apparatus structure that crystallization is difficult to separate out etc. termly, be the mode (patent documentation 7 and non-patent literature 1) of on installing, carrying out countermeasure at present.

To on glass substrate, form the substrate of ITO film, use time of 1.4 times of the lucky etching time that calculates from corrosion speed to carry out corrosion treatment after, carry out the residue after the electron microscope observation evaluation corrosion.In addition, to on glass substrate, having formed silicon nitride (SiN) film, and then form the substrate of ITO film, use time of 1.4 times of the lucky etching time that calculates from corrosion speed to carry out corrosion treatment equally after, carry out the residue after the electron microscope observation evaluation corrosion.Its result is illustrated in table 4.
Table 4
The judgement criteria of removing property of ※ residue
Zero does not see residue fully
* see residue all sidedly
As table 4 is represented, as can be seen in the corrosive fluid that only contains oxalic acid of comparative example 1, seeing residue all sidedly on the glass substrate and on the SiN film, and the corrosive fluid that contains oxalic acid, basic cpd and poly-sulfoacid compound of embodiment 12 and 13 has with the identical residue of the corrosive fluid that contains oxalic acid and poly-sulfonic acid of comparative example 5 and removes ability.
From the result of above-mentioned table 1~4 etching bath composition of the present invention as can be seen, because the meltage of indium is big, and the liquid stabilising behind the dissolving indium is high, so have the effect that the crystallization of extremely good inhibition oxalic acid indium is separated out.
In addition, with do not contain basic cpd in the past with oxalic acid to be that the corrosive fluid of principal constituent has identical, sufficient corrosion speed in the practicality.
And then, with do not contain basic cpd in the past with oxalic acid be principal constituent corrosive fluid similarly, can obtain good residue and remove ability by adding poly-sulfoacid compound etc.
According to the present invention, use contains the etching bath composition of oxalic acid and basic cpd, will be on substrates such as glass film forming ITO and the nesa coating of IZO etc. corrode, can suppress effectively the crystallization of the oxalic acid indium in the corrosion device is separated out, prolong the work-ing life of corrosive fluid significantly, the exchange number of times of operation and strainer is removed in crystallization in can alleviator, can reach and boost productivity and reduce cost.Therefore, in the manufacturing technology field nesa coating that has used ITO and IZO etc., liquid-crystal display and electroluminescent display etc., be useful especially.
The above, it only is preferred embodiment of the present invention, be not that the present invention is done any pro forma restriction, though the present invention discloses as above with preferred embodiment, yet be not in order to limit the present invention, any those skilled in the art, in not breaking away from the technical solution of the present invention scope, when the technology contents that can utilize above-mentioned announcement is made a little change or is modified to the equivalent embodiment of equivalent variations, in every case be not break away from the technical solution of the present invention content, according to technical spirit of the present invention to any simple modification that above embodiment did, equivalent variations and modification all still belong in the scope of technical solution of the present invention.
