Abstract
본 발명은 유기용매, 무기산 및 알킬암모늄 플루오라이드를 포함하는, 금속 산화막 박리액 조성물로서, 상기 무기산은, 조성물 총 중량에 대하여 0.05 내지 0.5 중량%로 포함되는, 금속 산화막 박리액 조성물을 제공한다.The present invention provides a metal oxide film stripper composition comprising an organic solvent, an inorganic acid and an alkylammonium fluoride, wherein the inorganic acid is included in an amount of 0.05 to 0.5% by weight based on the total weight of the composition.
Description
본 발명은 금속 산화막 제거에 효과적인 박리액 조성물에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a stripper composition effective for removing a metal oxide film.
일반적으로 반도체 소자를 제조하기 위해서는 여러 단계의 금속 배선 공정이 이루어져야 한다. 특히 반도체 소자의 집적도가 점점 증가되고 있는 추세에 따라서 금속 배선의 구조도 점점 다층화되어 가고 있는 추세이다.In general, in order to manufacture a semiconductor device, several stages of metal wiring processes must be performed. In particular, as the degree of integration of semiconductor devices is gradually increasing, the structure of metal wiring is also becoming increasingly multilayered.
다층화된 구조의 금속 배선을 형성하기 위해서는 컨택시키고자 하는 하부 금속막상에 절연막, 예컨대 실리콘 산화막을 형성시킨다. 그리고 실리콘 산화막을 식각하여 하부 금속막의 일정 표면을 노출시키는 컨택홀을 형성한 후에 상기 컨택 홀내에 얇은 두께의 장벽층을 형성시킨다. 이어서 장벽층상에 상부 금속막을 형성시키되, 상기 상부 금속막이 컨택 홀내에 완전히 채워지도록 한다. 그리고 마스크막 패턴, 예컨대 포토레지스트막 패턴을 사용하여 상부 금속막을 패터닝한다.In order to form a metal wiring having a multilayered structure, an insulating film, for example, a silicon oxide film is formed on a lower metal film to be contacted. Then, the silicon oxide layer is etched to form a contact hole exposing a predetermined surface of the lower metal layer, and then a thin barrier layer is formed in the contact hole. Then, an upper metal film is formed on the barrier layer so that the upper metal film completely fills the contact hole. Then, the upper metal film is patterned using a mask film pattern, for example, a photoresist film pattern.
통상적으로 상기 상부 금속막으로서 알루미늄막을 사용하는 경우, 알루미늄막을 패터닝하는 식각 공정은 고밀도 플라즈마를 이용한 식각 설비를 사용하여 이루어진다. 즉 상기 고밀도 플라즈마 식각 설비내에 알루미늄막이 도포된 반도체 웨이퍼를 로딩시킨 후에, 상부 및 하부 RF(Radio Frequency) 전력을 공급한다. 그리고 반응 가스를 공급하여 상기 반도체 웨이퍼 상부에 형성된 고밀도 플라즈마를 이용하여 알루미늄막을 식각한다. In general, when an aluminum layer is used as the upper metal layer, an etching process for patterning the aluminum layer is performed using an etching facility using high-density plasma. That is, after loading a semiconductor wafer coated with an aluminum film into the high-density plasma etching equipment, upper and lower radio frequency (RF) power is supplied. Then, the aluminum film is etched using high-density plasma formed on the semiconductor wafer by supplying a reaction gas.
그런데 상기와 같은 알루미늄막 식각 공정을 진행한 결과 알루미늄 산화막과 알루미늄 잔류물이 형성되며, 이로부터 여러 가지 문제점들이 나타나므로 이를 제거할 필요가 있다.However, as a result of the aluminum film etching process as described above, an aluminum oxide film and aluminum residue are formed, and various problems arise from them, so it is necessary to remove them.

상기 알킬암모늄 플루오라이드의 구체적인 예로는 테트라메틸암모늄 플루오라이드, 테트라에틸암모늄 플루오라이드, 테트라프로필암모늄 플루오라이드, 및 테트라부틸암모늄 플루오라이드로 이루어진 군으로부터 선택되는 1종 이상을 포함할 수 있다.Specific examples of the alkylammonium fluoride may include at least one selected from the group consisting of tetramethylammonium fluoride, tetraethylammonium fluoride, tetrapropylammonium fluoride, and tetrabutylammonium fluoride.

When the alkylammonium fluoride content satisfies the above content range, an appropriate etching rate can be exhibited for a metal oxide film such as an aluminum oxide film, and damage to a lower metal or silicon oxide film can be prevented, which is preferable.
물water
본 발명의 박리액 조성물에 포함되는 물은 반도체 공정용 탈이온수일 수 있으며, 바람직하게는 18㏁/㎝ 이상의 상기 탈이온수를 사용할 수 있다.The water included in the stripper composition of the present invention may be deionized water for semiconductor processing, and preferably, the deionized water having a concentration of 18 MΩ/cm or more may be used.
본 발명에서 물은 조성물 총 중량에 대하여, 0.1 내지 1 중량%로 포함될 수 있다. 물이 상기 함량범위를 만족하는 경우, 하부 금속 및 실리콘 산화막에 대한 손상을 방지하고, 알루미늄 산화막 등의 금속 산화막 식각에 용이하므로 바람직하다.

상기 표 2를 참조하면, 실시예 1 내지 15의 금속 산화막 박리액 조성물은, 조성물 총 중량에 대하여 0.05 내지 0.5 중량%의 무기산 및 알킬암모늄 플루오라이드를 포함함으로써 알루미늄 산화막에 대해 우수한 식각 속도 및 균일한 표면 조도를 확보할 수 있을 뿐만 아니라, 보호막질인 실리콘 산화막 및 텅스텐의 손상을 방지할 수 있음을 확인할 수 있다. 특히, 알킬암모늄 플루오라이드를 0.1 내지 1 중량%의 함량으로 포함하는 실시예 1 내지 5 및 8 내지 15의 경우, 알루미늄 산화막에 대한 식각 속도 및 표면 조도 특성이 더욱 우수한 점을 확인할 수 있었다.Referring to Table 2, the metal oxide film stripper compositions of Examples 1 to 15 contain 0.05 to 0.5% by weight of an inorganic acid and alkylammonium fluoride based on the total weight of the composition, thereby providing excellent etching rate and uniformity for aluminum oxide film. It can be confirmed that not only the surface roughness can be secured, but also the damage to the silicon oxide film and tungsten, which are protective films, can be prevented. In particular, in the case of Examples 1 to 5 and 8 to 15 containing alkylammonium fluoride in an amount of 0.1 to 1% by weight, it was confirmed that the etching rate and surface roughness characteristics of the aluminum oxide film were more excellent.
반면, 무기산을 0.05 중량% 미만의 함량으로 포함하는 비교예 1, 비교예 3 및 경우, 알루미늄 산화막에 대한 식각 속도가 너무 느려 금속 산화막이 충분히 제거되지 않았다. 무기산을 포함하지 않는 비교예 5의 경우, 실리콘 산화막의 손상을 방지할 수 없었다. 또한, 무기산의 함량이 0.5 중량%를 초과하는 비교예 2 및 비교예 4의 경우, 알루미늄 산화막에 대한 식각 속도가 너무 빨라지고, 특히 보호막질인 실리콘 산화막 및 텅스텐의 손상을 전혀 방지할 수 없으며, 알루미늄 산화막의 식각 속도가 빨라지면서, 이에 대한 표면조도 특성도 현저히 저하되는 결과를 보였다. 또한, 알킬암모늄 플루오라이드를 포함하지 않는 비교예 6의 경우, 알루미늄 산화막에 대한 식각 속도가 너무 느려 금속 산화막이 충분히 제거되지 않았다. 또한, 알킬암모늄 플루오라이드 화합물을 대체하여 알킬암모늄을 포함하지 않는 다른 불화물을 사용하는 비교예 7 및 비교예 8의 경우, 실리콘 산화막 및 텅스텐의 손상을 일으키며, 알루미늄 산화막에 대한 표면조도 특성 역시 저하되는 점을 확인할 수 있다.On the other hand, in Comparative Example 1 and Comparative Example 3 containing an inorganic acid in an amount of less than 0.05% by weight, the etching rate of the aluminum oxide film was too slow and the metal oxide film was not sufficiently removed. In the case of Comparative Example 5 not containing an inorganic acid, damage to the silicon oxide film could not be prevented. In addition, in Comparative Example 2 and Comparative Example 4 in which the content of the inorganic acid exceeds 0.5% by weight, the etching rate for the aluminum oxide film is too fast, and damage to the silicon oxide film and tungsten, which are protective films, cannot be prevented at all. As the etching rate of the oxide film increased, the surface roughness characteristics thereof were also remarkably deteriorated. In addition, in the case of Comparative Example 6 not containing alkylammonium fluoride, the etching rate of the aluminum oxide film was too slow and the metal oxide film was not sufficiently removed. In addition, in the case of Comparative Examples 7 and 8 using other fluorides that do not contain alkylammonium by replacing the alkylammonium fluoride compound, the silicon oxide film and tungsten are damaged, and the surface roughness characteristics of the aluminum oxide film are also deteriorated. point can be checked.
