Abstract

Resin cloths, powders, specular bodies and other objects resistant to conventional plating can be plated with metals by a simple method. According to the metal plating method of the present invention, electroless plating is performed after the surface of a object to be plated is treated with a pretreatment agent obtained by reacting or mixing in advance a noble metal compound (catalyst) with a silane-coupling agent having functional groups capable of capturing metals. According to this method, metal plating can be securely applied to powders, resin cloths, semiconductor wafers, and other specular bodies. Moreover, the problem of the insufficient coverage of the seed layer on the inside walls of vias and trenches during the formation of fine wiring can be addressed by applying this method to semiconductor wafers. The silane-coupling agent may be a compound containing azole groups, preferably an imidazole.

Description

Method for metal plating, pretreating agent and use semiconductor wafer and the semiconducter device that they make
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of chemical plating is used for that metal deposition is had method on the body surface of low electric conductivity to certain material, specular surface body, powder or other.The invention still further relates to a kind of chemical plating method that on semiconductor wafer, forms the copper wiring, more particularly, relate to a kind of like this chemical plating method that is applicable to semiconductor wafer, in this method, can under the condition that does not form cavity, crack or other defect, small path or groove be imbedded in the semiconductor wafer.
Background technology
Chemical plating is a kind of in the method that does not have to form on the base material of electroconductibility metallic membrane, uses this method when for example forming printed wiring on resin base material.Common method requires to carry out so-called activation, and it is a kind of like this technology, as the pretreated part of chemical plating, make in advance palladium or other precious metals as catalyst deposit on base material.The method of Shi Yonging comprises such certain methods traditionally, wherein at first uses SnCl 2Hydrochloric acid soln handle base material, and then it is immersed in PdCl 2In the aqueous solution, so that absorption Pd; And comprise such certain methods, wherein use the colloidal solution that contains Sn and Pd to make the Pd deposition from the teeth outwards.These methods have many shortcomings, for example the complicacy of the use of highly toxic Sn and treatment process.Given this, propose recently some and contain the method for silane coupling agent that can form the functional group of title complexs with Pd and other precious metals based on use, so as with these precious metals as chemical plating catalyzer covering surfaces (Japanese patent gazette No.S59-52701, S60-181294, S61-194183 and H3-44149).
But, just has some method of above-mentioned silane coupling agent characteristics, when plating catalyzer fixing agent and plating catalyzer separate treatment, want the feasible settling that be difficult to be adhered to by force and uniform of material of plating object, that is to say, after coupling agent is adsorbed on the object, just deposit as the precious metal ion of catalyzer.This is owing to such fact: object surfaces is changed coupling agent or precious metal ion can not enough deposit effectively.Owing to similar reason or because palladium does not have enough catalytic activitys, for some type want the object materials of plating or have amino silicane coupling agent and the method for Palladous chloride mixing solutions characteristics in the plating condition, can not reach uniform plating sometimes.Particularly, for for example forming the chemical plating settling on the semiconductor substrate on the semi-conductor specular surface, use traditional SnCl 2For the treatment process on basis is difficult to make precious metal ion (catalyzer) to be fixed on such surface.
Traditionally, in semiconductor wafer processing, aluminium is mainly as wiring material.Because the wiring integrated level improves, the copper of high conductivity has replaced aluminium at present, increases so that prevent the signal delay time.Method for embedding is used for forming the copper wiring, in this method, forms wiring pattern on silicon wafer usually, forms blocking layer and crystal seed layer by sputter or CVD, with electroplating wiring pattern is imbedded, and removes the copper of excess deposition then with CMP.
When LSI is routed in silicon or the formation of other semiconductor wafer surfaces, for the copper wiring of imbedding forms path or ditch mortise, the barrier metal that is selected from titanium, tantalum, tungsten, its nitride etc. deposits to about 0.01-0.1 micron thickness with methods such as sputter, CVD, is diffused in the silicon on the wafer surface so that prevent copper.Traditionally, this barrier metal layer covers with thin copper layer (crystal seed layer) by above-mentioned identical mode by methods such as sputter, CVD.Barrier metal has high resistance usually, and it has low-resistance copper (veneer) for what provide in advance, so that avoid in electro-coppering subsequently the sizable difference of current density that produces between the centre portions of each point of contact and periphery on the wafer perimeter.
Along with more and more narrow LSI wiring pattern is designed and path is corresponding with groove becomes narrower, above-mentionedly can not provide enough coverings to the crystal seed layer on path and the trench wall, thereby in electroplating process subsequently, produce defective in (cavity and crack) at the sputtering method that carries out traditionally.Though can improve covering with CVD, very high expense is a problem.

According to method for metal plating of the present invention, the object of plating not to be subjected to the restriction of shape or character.For example, the present invention is applicable to insulating bodies, for example inorganic materials (comprising glass, pottery etc.), plastics (comprising polyester, polymeric amide, pi, fluorine resin etc.), film and the sheet material made by them; And the insulcrete of making by Resins, epoxy and fibre-reinforced other materials, or opticglass fabric substrate; And the object of wanting plating that low electric conductivity is arranged, for example silicon wafer and other semi-conductors.Method of the present invention can perform well in powder or specular surface body, for example transparency glass plate, silicon wafer and other semiconductor substrates.For example, such powder comprises little glass sphere, molybdenumdisulphide powder, magnesium oxide powder, powdered graphite, silicon carbide powder, Zirconium oxide powder, alumina powder, silicon oxide powder, sheet mica, glass fibre, silicon nitride and Teflon Powder.
Term used herein " semiconductor wafer " also refers to the wafer of based compound semiconductor, for example gallium/arsenic, gallium/phosphorus and indium/phosphorus except that referring to silicon wafer.Method for metal plating of the present invention to the material of the coating surface material that constitutes semiconductor wafer without any restriction.For example, when forming the LSI wiring, the surface of plating is the low electric conductivity barrier metal that is selected from titanium, tantalum, tungsten and nitride thereof and uses sedimentary other materials such as vapor deposition, sputter, CVD usually.Method of the present invention can perform well in any situation in these situations.In addition, when the surface of plating was silicon or its oxide film, the present invention can use well.
When method for metal plating of the present invention, the silane coupling agent that precious metal ion and its functional group can be caught metal mixes or reaction in advance mutually, obtains being used to handle the pretreating agent of chemical plating base material.When wanting the plating object surfaces with this pre-treatment treatment, pretreating agent dissolves in the The suitable solvent.The example of suitable solvent comprises water, methyl alcohol, ethanol, 2-propyl alcohol, acetone, toluene, ethylene glycol, polyoxyethylene glycol, dimethyl formamide, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), diox and composition thereof.When making water, the pH value of solution needs concrete according to wanting the object of plating and the condition optimizing of plating.
To the concentration of the pretreating agent that is used for the surface or the pretreating agent solution silane coupling agent that contains the functional group that to catch metal without limits, but preferred concentration is 0.001-10% (weight).When concentration during less than 0.001% (weight), the compound quantity that is deposited on the substrate surface is tending towards reducing, and desirable effect is more difficult to be reached thereby make.When concentration surpassed 10% (weight), too much compound was deposited, thereby hindered drying and make the easier cohesion of powder.
Usually the method for using dip-coating, brushing and other technologies to carry out evaporating solvent is subsequently handled cloth shape or plate-like substrate surface, but these are not unique selections, and any method all can adopt, as long as silane coupling agent combines equably with the surface.Being used for the method for powder, make solvent evaporates later in dip-coating, the silane coupling agent that is contained in the solvent is attached to substrate surface.Also may use a kind of like this method, in this method, after handling, solvent be told dry then wetting powder with filtering.Because the even film forming character of silane coupling agent can reach in submerged state in the absorption on the substrate surface.In some cases, decide on adsorption conditions, following drying process may be saved, and this process can only be finished by cleaning.In addition, for pre-treatment (surface treatment) temperature, room temperature is enough, but heating may be effectively in some cases, decides on the object of wanting plating.
Carrying out before the plating pre-treatment, the object of plating is wanted in washing earlier.If the special requirement adhesion strength can be carried out the etching method of traditional chromic acid etc.
For the solvent evaporates that made later in surface treatment, it is enough making surface drying by the vaporization temperature that this solvent is heated to solvent, but preferably further heats 3-60 minute down at 60-120 ℃.When water was used as solvent, drying process can be saved, and therefore only just can carry out plating with cleaning after handling.But, in this case, need in the coating solution fully to wash down in order to prevent that catalyzer from bringing into.
In solution and coating method of the present invention, after above-mentioned surface treatment, carry out chemical plating.In this stage, metal for example copper, nickel, cobalt, tin and Jin Ke is pressed plating of the present invention.Under these circumstances, it may be effective using the solvent treatment object that contains reductive agent before plating.Under the particular case of copper plating, available dimethyamine borane solution is handled as reductive agent.After the electroconductibility that provides by chemical plating formation metallic film and for nonconducting base material to a certain degree, might carry out electrolytic coating or relate to the displacement plating of using less noble metal.
When method for metal plating of the present invention is used for semiconductor wafer, traditional seed layer deposition method replaces with a kind of like this method, by by above-mentioned treat surface catalyzer being provided in the barrier metal, the chemical plating by copper or nickel forms crystal seed layer then in this method.According to this method, the path of available ratio lower expense solution thin wires when using CVD and the inadequate problem of covering of trench wall.When with the chemical plating deposited copper, available identical chemical plating process not only forms crystal seed layer continuously but also forms the wiring of imbedding continuously.When catalyzer is deposited on the coating surface equably, when forming forming fine wiring,, tend to generate the crack because grow equably at the surperficial upper film of plating.But when depositing according to the present invention, catalyzer tends to be attached to better the inwall of thin wires.Because having, metal deposits to the more trend in the sedimentary zone of multi-catalyst, the result is bottom-up (bottom-up) deposition process that is similar to the process that the situation at the cupric electrolysis coating solution that is used to imbed thin wires occurs, so thin wires can be imbedded not forming under the fissured condition.Certainly, might form crystal seed layer later on by cupric electrolysis plating buried wiring with the copper chemical plating.
When method for metal plating of the present invention was used for semiconductor wafer, common practice was to adopt a kind of like this method, and wafer surface is passed through dip-coating processing later on solvent evaporation in this method.But this is not unique selection, adopts in any method, as long as silane coupling agent can be attached on the surface equably.For treat surface, room temperature is enough, makes catalyzer with higher speed and bigger quantity deposition but add heat energy.30-80 ℃ Heating temperature is enough.By above-mentioned mode pretreating agent is dissolved in the solution that makes in the The suitable solvent and can be used for surface treatment.On deciding in conjunction with condition, drying step can save, and therefore can only clean.
Make the solvent slop volatilization for after handling in wafer surface, be enough to make surface drying more than the solvent vaporization temperature, system was kept under 60-120 ℃ 3-6 minute again by temperature is raised to.When water was used as solvent, drying process can be saved, and can only clean after handling and carry out plating.But, bring in the coating solution in order to prevent catalyzer, cleaning fully in this case needs.
Formalin is contained in the copper chemical plating solution as reductive agent usually.But in recent years, because the problems relevant with environmental protection, the use of formalin is abandoned gradually.The use of nickel chemical plating solution makes this problem more outstanding.For the nickel chemical plating, because the phosphorus or the boron of filming and containing percentum usually, so resistance increases.So when the nickel chemical plating forms crystal seed layer, must obtain still providing the minimum thickness of electroconductibility.
Alkaline components is contained in the solution of copper chemical plating and nickel plating as raw material usually.Because alkaline components is the most deleterious impurity in the wiring material, there is not alkali-metal raw material so must use.For example, can use Tetramethylammonium hydroxide to replace sodium hydroxide, be used for balance pH value.In addition, dimethyamine borane also can be used as the reductive agent of nickel chemical plating solution.
