Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve the wettability of an etchant composition by adding specific alcohol modified silicone oil as a surface active agent to an etchant in which ammonium fluoride is mixed with hydrogen fluoride, thereby reducing its surface tension. CONSTITUTION:0.001-1wt.% alcohol modified silicone oil represented by the formula I is contained as a surface active agent in an aqueous solution which contains hydrogen fluoride and ammonium fluoride. In the formula I, R<1> is 1-7C alkylene group, R<2>, R<3> are 1-8C alkyl group, and (n) is integer number of 5-80. Thus, there is no absorption of filter due to filtering to hold the etching velocity of a silicon oxide film which is not different from the conventional one, and its surface tension is reduced to largely improve its wettability.

<Conventional technology> In recent years, with the miniaturization of semiconductor integrated circuits, etching liquid has entered the gaps between fine patterns of 2 μm or less formed by a resist film, and etching with good drainage has been developed to achieve uniform etching. drugs have been sought. Therefore, a mixture of hydrofluoric acid and ammonium fluoride is used as a wet etching agent for various silicon oxide films.

For this reason, alcohol treatment or surfactant treatment has traditionally been performed as a pretreatment for wet etching to improve the wettability between the resist film and the etching solution. This is problematic because ammonium fluoride tends to precipitate in the gaps between fine patterns.

However, although these methods improve the wettability immediately after adding these hydrocarbon surfactants, it is common for semiconductor manufacturers to perform temporary purification before using the etching agent. If the filter is filtered, the surfactant will be adsorbed to the filter and the surface tension will increase.
Furthermore, there is a problem in that the alcohol added to prevent micellar precipitation of the surfactant tends to cause ammonium fluoride precipitation in the gaps between the fine patterns.゛On the other hand, an etching agent that is a mixture of hydrofluoric acid and ammonium fluoride, a fluorine-based surfactant made of a specific fluorine-containing monoamine, diamine, or a salt thereof, or a nonionic fluorine-based interface containing polyoxyethylene. Activator at 0.
A method has been proposed in which fluorine-based surfactants are added in an amount of 1 to 5% by weight to lower the surface tension and improve wettability. This is easily a problem.
