Being used for resist of the present invention removes agent and resist and removes composition and have the fabulous ability that removes resist and polymer (etch by-products).In addition, the layer below their not etches resist, for example metal level.In addition, to remove each component of composition than traditional resist more cheap for above-mentioned material.
N alkanol alkoxyl alkane acid amides (amide compound of the present invention) prepares by the method below the present invention.At first, will as the alkanolamine shown in the formula (3) of amines with mix as the alkyl alkoxy alkanoate shown in the formula (4) of ester compounds.The weight mixing ratio of alkanolamine and alkyl alkoxy alkanoate is 1: 1.Secondly, with amine and ester reaction, make the N alkanol alkoxyl alkane acid amides shown in the formula (1).For enough reaction energies are provided, the temperature of mixture is remained on room temperature to about 120 ℃.In the preferred embodiment of this method, mixture is heated to about 80 to about 90 ℃.
The resist of explanation removes composition 1 or 2 by the N alkanol alkoxyl alkane acid amides of method for preparing and etch inhibitor or polar material or both are prepared by the mixed that suits in the table 1.
In addition, can prepare composition 1 or 2 by the following method.At first, 10-70% (weight) alkanolamine and 10-70% (weight) alkyl alkoxy alkanoate and 0-30% (weight) etch inhibitor or 0-30% (weight) polar material or both are mixed.Then, the temperature with mixture remains on room temperature to about 120 ℃.In the preferred embodiment of this method, mixture is heated to about 80 to about 90 ℃.Reaction time is about 1 to about 24 hours, preferred about 1 to 12 hour.After the heating, allow reactant place 1-7 hour, make chemical reactant stable.
Therefore, make mainly by N alkanol alkoxyl alkane acid amides and etch inhibitor or polar material or composition that both form.A spot of unreacted alkanol amine and alkyl alkoxy alkanoate can exist.
Can detect by an unaided eye or with gas chromatography confirm the reaction finish.In naked eyes are identified,, observe the layer that separates between each component and disappear along with the process of reaction.When observing the component layers complete obiteration that separates, just think to react and finish.When with the gas chromatographic analysis composition, the area percent of N alkanol alkoxyl alkane acid amides just shows to react above 80% to be finished.The area that area percent is defined as peak relevant with a certain component in the gas-chromatography sample divided by the area at all peaks of all components and, multiply by 100 again.
In the preparation of composition 3-5, each component is pressed the listed mixed of table 1, they were reacted 1-24 hour down for extremely about 120 ℃ in room temperature.Usually, being used to remove before the resist, make these compositions 3-5 earlier.But,, can save above-mentioned reactions steps of separating so if might make the temperature of composition 3-5 contact resist be set in said temperature.
With reference to the solid line step among Fig. 1 the method that the present invention removes resist is described.Should be pointed out that traditional method represents with solid line step among Fig. 1 and dotted line step.Make the various processes of semiconductor element, for example etching (dry method or wet type) process or ion implantation process all use the resist figure to carry out as shelter.Subsequently, the resist that the base material and the table 1 of top formation resist figure is listed removes agent or composition contacts, so that remove resist or polymer or both (step 110).Remove composition and put into groove by resist being removed agent or resist, base material is immersed finish in the groove this step then.On the other hand, when base material moves by sprayer, resist can be removed agent or resist and remove composition spray to base material.
In removing step, can be made into resist and remove agent, resist is removed composition 1 and 2 mix, can contact with base material immediately then, so that remove resist.At first the composition 3-5 shown in the table 1 is mixed, also can contact with base material immediately then; But, preferably removing before the step, composition 3-5 reaction certain hour.This is reflected at room temperature and carried out 1-12 hour under about 120 ℃, even can carry out under the condition that does not heat.In preferred embodiments, after reaction is finished even again through after a while, after for example reaction is passed through 1-7 hour after finishing again, composition is contacted with the base material that resist is arranged.
Use these compositions, resist removal methods of the present invention can be carried out under the low temperature below 70 ℃ or 70 ℃, carries out under 45-70 ℃ particularly.Be preferably about 10 to about 30 minutes time of contact.
On the other hand, when the works that forms on the base material has high thermal endurance, the composition 3-5 that does not heat can be placed on resist and remove in the unit and contact with base material.Subsequently, the temperature that the adjustment that resist can be removed the unit can be reacted to amine and ester (room temperature and more than the room temperature) is so that generate acid amides.Then, can occur simultaneously generating the reaction of acid amides and the reaction that resist removes from base material by composition.That is to say, in this case, removing before the step, can save the separately step of reaction of composition 3-5.
It is that resist removes agent or resist and removes the resist that composition can be used for being applicable to the shortwave irradiation that resist removes material, for example the resist in the resist of ArF excimer laser (193 nanometer) and traditional i line (365 nanometer) source or the resist of KrF excimer laser (248 nanometer).
After resist removes fully, wash (step 130) with remaining in the resist that resist on the base material removes material and dissolving.With cleaning solution for example deionized water carry out cleaning step.If desired, cleaning step can be undertaken by two steps.At last, air is used to dry substrate as the Rotary drying method of drier or with isopropyl alcohol as the seasoning of drier, so that remove the deionized water (step 140) that remains on the base material.
Behind the drying steps 140, base material is sent to subsequently procedure of processing.When forming the resist shelter in the step subsequently, after the step of finishing subsequently, remove resist by step shown in Figure 1.Remove step by such repetitive manufacture process and resist and make semiconductor element.
As shown in Figure 1, removing material the fabulous ability that removes resist or polymer is arranged because be used for resist of the present invention, is unnecessary so remove step 100 (dotted line) in advance, and this point is different with traditional technology.In addition because the layer below the resist is not weathered, after remove step 120 (dotted line) and also can save, these are also different with conventional art.Therefore, compare with traditional resist subtractive process, according to the present invention, available simpler process removes resist fully.So, can improve the productivity ratio of semiconductor element greatly.
In addition, as mentioned above, because the resist subtractive process more simplifies, resist of the present invention removes equipment and can make forr a short time or compacter.
Referring to Fig. 2, resist of the present invention removes equipment 200 and comprises that simply resist removes unit 210, cleaning unit 220 and drying unit 230.That is to say, traditional remove in advance the unit and after to remove the unit be unnecessary.Therefore, compare with traditional technology, resist removes equipment 200 shared areas and can reduce significantly.
Resist of the present invention removes the unit, and to remove material source with the resist that is used for the inventive method be fluid communication.
Remove under the situation that equipment 200 uses acid wash at resist, unit 210,220 and 230 is separately corresponding to a groove independently.Therefore, different with traditional technology, nitric acid (HNO 3) remove in advance that to remove treatment trough behind treatment trough and the isopropyl alcohol (IPA) be unnecessary, therefore can remove this two grooves, remove the shared area of equipment 200 thereby significantly reduced resist.
The resist of use spray-on process removes equipment and can be divided into horizontal and vertical two kinds.
Referring to Fig. 3, horizontal resist removes equipment 300 and uses a kind of horizontal feed equipment 340, and for example a kind of conveyer system is divided into resist with this equipment and removes unit 310, cleaning unit 320 and drying unit 330.Resist removes material source 360 N alkanol alkoxyl alkane acid amides or alkanolamine and alkyl alkoxy alkanoate.This source and resist remove unit 310 for example by feed unit 370 fluid communication.Traditional cleaning solution source 362 and drier source 364 are also arranged respectively, also can be by feed unit 370 and separately unit 320 and 330 fluid communication.Nozzle 312,322 and 332 is installed in each unit, is used to spray be applicable to the material of unit separately.Specifically, nozzle 312 is installed in resist and removes unit 310.In operation, when base material is put into resist and removed unit 310, resist of the present invention is removed material from nozzle 312 sprayings, so that remove resist.Then, by delivery system 340 the base material continuous horizontal is transported to cleaning unit 320.In cleaning unit 320, cleaning solution is sprayed by nozzle 322.At last, by delivery system 340 base material is transported to drying unit 330.Be sprayed to drier air or dry carry out drying for example on the base material with nozzle 332 with chemicals.Have only three unit because horizontal resist removes equipment, thereby the size of equipment can reduce greatly.
Referring to Fig. 4, a kind of vertical resist removes equipment 400 and uses a kind of substrate holder 440 that can vertically move.The feed unit 470 that resist of the present invention removes material source 460 and provides resist to remove material also is provided vertical equipment.In preferred embodiments, substrate holder 440 is rotatable.In addition, there are three bed shape structural regions the inside of this equipment, their hard each other in line row, but be not chamber independently.That is to say that these unit remove zone 410 by arid region 430, cleaning zone 420 and resist and form by the straight order of heavily fortified point.Also cleaning solution source 462 and drier source 464 can be arranged respectively, these materials can be carried by feed unit 470.In this embodiment, single feed line 450 can be all three unit separately material is provided.
For example, when base material was placed on the substrate holder 440, support 440 at first moved to and carries out the zone that resist removes, and the resist that removes source 460 from resist removes material through feed unit 470, by feed line 450 sprayings.In preferred embodiments, resist removes material and is discharged into outside the equipment by the discharge pipe line (not shown).When resist removed step and finishes, substrate holder 440 moved to cleaning unit 420 by general who has surrendered's base material down.By feed line 450 cleaning solution is sprayed to cleaning unit 420 then.At last, take base material to drying unit 430, carry out drying by substrate holder is vertically mobile.
Though Fig. 4 illustrates drying unit 430, cleaning unit 420 and resist and removes unit 410 by vertically arranging the end of to the order on top that these unit also can vertically be arranged by opposite order.
Have only three unit because vertical resist of the present invention removes equipment, therefore compare with traditional vertical equipment, its size reduces greatly.
