With the development of semiconductor technology, the wafer size is continuously increased, the line width is continuously reduced, the requirements on the quality of the processing surface of the silicon substrate are higher and higher, and the Chemical Mechanical Polishing (CMP) technology is an essential technology for polishing the silicon substrate material. The general requirements of the silicon substrate polishing process include various aspects of removal rate, micro-scratches, roughness, residual particles, haze values, etc., wherein the polishing abrasive in the polishing liquid is an important consumable.
In the disclosed technical scheme, CN 107936848A, CN 102660195A, CN 102061131A adopts colloidal silicon dioxide as polishing liquid abrasive, and silicon dioxide particles play a key role in the silicon wafer polishing process. According to the silicon wafer polishing mechanism reported in the literature, atoms on the surface of a silicon material and OH < - > in a solution react chemically to form a soft layer with a certain thickness, the soft layer can be adsorbed on the surface of the polishing material to block further chemical reaction, and silicon dioxide particles in the polishing solution can remove the soft layer under the action of pressure and a polishing pad to expose new silicon atoms, so that a high-precision surface is obtained. In the public report and actual processing, most of enterprises for polishing silicon wafers adopt silicon dioxide particles as abrasive materials, and most of the enterprises adopt imported silica sol; in order to bypass the patent barriers of foreign enterprises in silica sol, some domestic polishing liquid production enterprises adopt cerium oxide as an abrasive, but the polishing speed of the cerium oxide is slightly lower than that of the silica sol.
Therefore, the problem that the polishing rate is low when the silica sol patent barrier and the nano cerium oxide are polished to polish the silicon wafer needs to be solved at present, and the development of novel polishing abrasive materials and a liquid preparation process technology suitable for the abrasive materials are needed to be solved by the current technical problems urgently needed by the technicians in the field.
