Abstract
Description
本発明はリソグラフィ工程で使用されるフォトマスクのパーティクル除去方法に関するものである。 The present invention relates to a method for removing particles from a photomask used in a lithography process.
Si半導体集積回路の微細化はめざましく、それに伴って転写に用いるフォトマスクまたはレチクル上のパターン寸法も微細になってきている。フォトマスクはリソグラフィ工程の原版であり、フォトマスクにパーティクル等のソフトディフェクトが存在するとそれがそのままウェーハに転写されてしまいデバイスの不良を生じることになりかねないので取り除かれなければならない。寸法の微細化に伴い、許容できないパーティクルサイズも小さくなってきている。 The miniaturization of Si semiconductor integrated circuits is remarkable, and accordingly, the pattern dimensions on a photomask or reticle used for transfer are also becoming finer. A photomask is an original of a lithography process, and if a soft defect such as particles is present on the photomask, it is transferred to the wafer as it is, which may cause a device failure and must be removed. As dimensions become smaller, unacceptable particle sizes are becoming smaller.
従来、パーティクル除去のために洗浄液を使った洗浄がなされていた。(例えば、非特許文献1参照)
従来の技術において、パーティクル除去のための洗浄が工夫されているが、パーティクルの種類により洗浄も異なり、洗浄回数を増やすと遮光膜の膜減り(膜べり)が生じたり、位相が変化するなどの副次的な問題も抱えている。ここで、膜減りとは遮光膜(ハーフトーンのものも含む)が洗浄(酸やアルカリ)により薄くなっていくことをいう。洗浄回数を重ねるとどんどん膜が薄くなっていき、最後には遮光膜としても機能を果たさなくなってしまう。Crマスクはかなり余裕度もあり、膜を厚くするということができる。しかし、MoSiONのようなハーフトーンマスクにおいては解像力を上げるために位相が180°になるような膜厚に調整されているため、余裕度をもって膜を厚くするというようなことはできないので、この膜減りが大きくなると、期待される機能そのものを果たさなくなってしまい問題となる。 In the conventional technology, cleaning for particle removal has been devised, but cleaning differs depending on the type of particle. If the number of cleanings is increased, the shading film will decrease (film slippage), the phase will change, etc. There are also secondary problems. Here, the film reduction means that the light-shielding film (including a halftone film) is thinned by cleaning (acid or alkali). If the number of washings is repeated, the film will become thinner and will eventually fail to function as a light-shielding film. The Cr mask has a considerable margin, and it can be said that the film becomes thicker. However, in a halftone mask such as MoSiON, the film thickness is adjusted so that the phase is 180 ° in order to increase the resolving power, so it is not possible to thicken the film with a margin. If the reduction increases, the expected function itself will not be fulfilled, causing a problem.
マスクの検査工程や欠陥修正工程でパーティクルが見つかることがあると、たとえ1個であってもいままで洗浄以外の方法で積極的にパーティクルを除去しようということはなされなかった。マスクの検査工程や欠陥修正工程で見つかったパーティクルはそのマスク上の位置もわかっており、数個のパーティクルならば、洗浄回数を増やすと遮光膜の膜減りが生じたり、位相が変化するなどの副次的な問題も抱えている洗浄よりも、座標をリンケージさせて他の装置で他のアプローチでクリーンかつ確実に取り除けるのならば、多少工程が増えてもフォトスク製造工程全体でみると高品質を達成する上で魅力的かつ必要な方法である。 If particles are found in the mask inspection process or defect correction process, even if only one particle has been found, no attempt has been made to actively remove the particles by means other than cleaning. Particles found in the mask inspection process and defect correction process also know the position on the mask, and if there are several particles, increasing the number of cleanings may cause a reduction in the thickness of the light-shielding film, change the phase, etc. If the coordinates can be linked and other devices can be removed cleanly and reliably by other approaches than cleaning that also has secondary problems, the quality of the entire photosk manufacturing process can be improved even if the number of processes increases. Is an attractive and necessary way to achieve.
本発明は、洗浄以外の方法で安全かつ確実にフォトマスク上に存在する数個以下のパーティクルの除去を行おうとするものである。 The present invention intends to remove several or less particles existing on a photomask safely and reliably by a method other than cleaning.
走査プローブ顕微鏡の探針とフォトマスク上のパーティクル間の力学的・電磁気学的な相互作用または化学反応を利用してパーティクルをフォトマスク上から除去する。 Particles are removed from the photomask using a mechanical / electromagnetic interaction or chemical reaction between the probe of the scanning probe microscope and the particles on the photomask.
以上説明したように、この発明では洗浄による遮光膜の膜減りが生じたり、位相が変化するなどの副次的な問題も起こすことなく、欠陥検査工程や欠陥修正工程で見つかったパーティクルをクリーンかつ確実にフォトマスク上から除去することができる。 As described above, in the present invention, particles found in the defect inspection process and the defect correction process are cleaned and cleaned without causing a secondary problem such as a reduction in the thickness of the light shielding film due to cleaning or a phase change. It can be reliably removed from the photomask.
走査プローブ顕微鏡は先鋭な探針に起因する強い局所性と高分解能顕微鏡特有の高い位置決め能力を持っており、欠陥検査装置や欠陥修正装置の位置情報を用いて正常なパターンに悪影響を与えずに狙ったパーティクルのみフォトマスク上から除去することができる。洗浄以外の方法でパーティクルを除去するので、洗浄による遮光膜の膜減りが生じたり、位相が変化するなどの副次的な問題も起こることはない。
以下に、本発明を用いた実施例について説明する。
Scanning probe microscopes have strong locality due to the sharp tip and high positioning ability unique to high-resolution microscopes, and do not adversely affect normal patterns using the position information of defect inspection equipment and defect correction equipment. Only targeted particles can be removed from the photomask. Since particles are removed by a method other than cleaning, there is no side problem such as reduction of the light-shielding film due to cleaning or phase change.
Examples using the present invention will be described below.

The particles firmly adhered (fixed) on the photomask are removed by scratching with an atomic force microscope probe. The atomic force microscope stage having a probe made of a material harder than the particle is moved to a position where the particle is present in accordance with the position information of the defect inspection apparatus or defect correction apparatus that has found the particle. The region including the

When the particles are small and the adhesion force to the substrate is not so strong, the particles can be removed by using nanotweezer technology. In accordance with the position information of the defect inspection apparatus or defect correction apparatus that has found the particle, the stage of the atomic force microscope having both the probe having the tweezers function and the ordinary probe is moved to the position where the particle is present. A region including particles is observed in an observation mode of an atomic force microscope with a normal probe, and the position of the particle is recognized. As shown in FIG. 4, fine tweezers 6 made of carbon nanotubes as shown in Non-Patent Document 2, for example, are moved to the position of the particles as nanotweezers, and the
集束イオンビーム装置で行われている透過電子顕微鏡用サンプル作製技術を応用した手法もパーティクル除去に利用することができる。パーティクルを見つけた欠陥検査装置や欠陥修正装置の位置情報に従い、デポジション機能やエッチング機能を有する電子ビーム装置またはイオンビーム装置と真空内で複合した原子間力顕微鏡のステージをパーティクルのある位置に移動する。原子間力顕微鏡の観察モードでパーティクルを含む領域を観察し、パーティクルの位置を認識する。図5(a)に示すようにまず走査プローブ顕微鏡探針2をフォトマスク上に付着したパーティクルに接触させた状態でデポジション用ガス供給系8からデポジション原料ガスを流しながら電子ビームまたはイオンビーム7でデポジション膜9を形成し接着する。パーティクルが探針に接着した状態で強い力でパーティクル1をガラス基板から引き離し、パーティクル1を移動させる。図5(b)に示すようにパーティクル移動先でエッチング用ガス供給系10からエッチングガスを流しながら電子ビームまたはイオンビーム7のエッチングで接着部分のデポジション膜9をエッチングし、パーティクル1を引き離す。
A technique applying a transmission electron microscope sample preparation technique performed in a focused ion beam apparatus can also be used for particle removal. Move the atomic force microscope stage combined with an electron beam device or ion beam device with a deposition function and an etching function in vacuum according to the position information of the defect inspection device or defect correction device that found the particle to the position where the particle is located To do. In the observation mode of the atomic force microscope, the region including the particles is observed to recognize the position of the particles. As shown in FIG. 5 (a), an electron beam or an ion beam is first introduced while flowing the deposition source gas from the deposition gas supply system 8 with the scanning probe microscope probe 2 in contact with the particles adhering to the photomask. In step 7, a deposition film 9 is formed and bonded. With the particles adhering to the probe, the

The stage of the electrochemical scanning tunneling microscope filled with the acidic or alkaline solution 11 having an appropriate pH is moved to the position where the particles are located in accordance with the position information of the defect inspection apparatus or defect correction apparatus where the particles are found. The region including the
磁性金属でできたパーティクルに対しては、その磁気的な性質をパーティクル除去に利用する。パーティクルを見つけた欠陥検査装置や欠陥修正装置の位置情報に従い、非磁性の原子間力顕微鏡探針と走査磁気力顕微鏡探針を備えた装置のステージをパーティクルのある位置に移動する。非磁性の原子間力顕微鏡探針でパーティクルを含む領域を観察し、パーティクルの位置を認識する。次に図7(a)に示すように強磁性探針13を磁性体でできたパーティクル1に近づけ磁気的な引力を利用してフォトマスク上に付着したパーティクル1を移動除去する。図7(b)に示すように強磁性探針13と磁性体でできたパーティクル1の磁気的な斥力を利用しても同様にパーティクルを除去できる。
