More specifically, the present invention relates to a silicon nitride film etching composition capable of increasing the etching rate for the silicon nitride film, improving the etching selectivity for the silicon nitride film and the silicon oxide film, and suppressing the deposition of by-products generated during the etching process. .

(1) 실리콘 질화막 에칭 속도(Å/min): 비커에 식각용 조성물을 넣고 가열하여 온도가 165℃가 되었을 때 SiN 막질을 넣고 30분간 식각한 후, 전후 두께 차이를 측정하여 에칭 속도를 계산하였다.(1) Silicon nitride film etching rate (Å / min): When the etching composition was placed in a beaker and heated to a temperature of 165 ° C., a silicon nitride film was added and etched for 30 minutes. .
(2) 실리콘 산화막 에칭 속도(Å/min): SiN 막질 대신에 SiO 막질을 사용한 것을 제외하고 실리콘 질화막 에칭 속도와 동일한 방법으로 평가하였다.(2) Silicon oxide film etching rate (Å / min): The evaluation was performed in the same manner as the silicon nitride film etching rate except that the SiO film quality was used instead of the SiN film quality.
(3) 선택비: 상기 실리콘 산화막 에칭속도에 대한 실리콘 질화막 에칭속도 선택비를 계산하여 하기 표 2에 나타내었다.(3) Selectivity: The silicon nitride film etching rate selectivity to the silicon oxide film etching rate was calculated and shown in Table 2 below.
(4) 부산물 측정 방법: 실리콘 질화막과 산화막을 포함하는 웨이퍼를 165℃의 식각액을 이용하여 4매 연속 에칭한 후 5매째 웨이퍼에 대해 부산물을 측정하였다. 실리콘 산화막의 에칭 속도가 음의 값을 가질 경우 실리콘 산화막 표면에 부산물이 생성된 것으로 판단하였으며, 추가적으로 주사전자 현미경을 통하여 실리콘 산화막의 표면을 분석하여 부산물 생성 여부를 확인하였다.(4) By-product measuring method: Four wafers including silicon nitride and oxide films were continuously etched using an etching solution at 165 ° C., and then by-products were measured for the fifth wafer. When the etching rate of the silicon oxide film had a negative value, it was determined that the by-products were formed on the surface of the silicon oxide film, and additionally, by analyzing the surface of the silicon oxide film by scanning electron microscope, it was confirmed whether the by-products were formed.
상기 표 2에서와 같이, 본 발명의 실리콘 질화막 에칭 조성물은 실리콘 질화막에 대한 에칭 속도가 높고, 실리콘 질화막과 실리콘 산화막에 대한 에칭 선택비가 향상되며, 에칭 과정에서 생성되는 부산물의 석출을 억제할 수 있는 것을 알 수 있다.As shown in Table 2, the silicon nitride film etching composition of the present invention has a high etching rate for the silicon nitride film, an improved etching selectivity for the silicon nitride film and the silicon oxide film, and can suppress precipitation of by-products generated during the etching process. It can be seen that.
