Invention Description (/ ) The present invention relates to a method for eliminating photoresist residue after development, and in particular to an image sensor (Image sensor) A method of eliminating the residual photoresist after development using a color photoresist. Digital color image devices are typically constructed by stacking color filter arrays (CFA) on a charge coupled device (CCD) or a complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) image sensor. Generally, the CFA is formed by staggering three or more color filter channels, each of which allows only a specific frequency of visible light to pass through the channel to the corresponding image sensor. Therefore, the color content of the captured image is interpreted by the CFA to each corresponding sensing element. Generally, the colors commonly used by CFA are, for example, red, green, blue (RGB) or cyan, magenta, yellow (CMY), or more. Referring to FIG. 1 , in the process of forming an RGB color photoresist 12 on a substrate 10 having a CMOS transistor, in the process of fabricating a CFA, it is often found that the photoresist is exposed after the exposure due to the contour of the surface. Irradiation or improper baking causes a photoresist residue 14 to remain in the non-pattern area 20 after development. This problem cannot be cleaned by the conventional static development method, which may cause subsequent processes to be affected or lowered. Product effect or appearance. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, the present invention provides a method of eliminating photoresist residue after development which can effectively carry away photoresist residues without affecting the color resist pattern on the pattern area. The invention provides a method for eliminating residual photoresist after development, which is suitable for forming a color photoresist on a wafer substrate. Color resists are developed.

Preferred Embodiments of the present invention for eliminating photoresist residue after development will be described in two preferred embodiments. In a first preferred embodiment, the substrate is subjected to high pressure spray washing with deionized water added with a surfactant. In a second preferred embodiment, a polarization step is first performed with oxygen to polarize the photoresist residue to impart a polarity to the photoresist residue, followed by rinsing with deionized water. Embodiment 1 Referring to FIG. 2A, a wafer substrate 1A is provided. The substrate 1 has undergone a number of process steps to form a CMOS transistor (not shown) on the substrate 100. A layer of color photoresist 102 is then formed on substrate 100. The material of the color resist 102 includes, for example, colored pigmented acrylate or dyed photoresist such as Novolac resin or dyed dyed polyimide, but It is not limited to this. These materials used are often used as negative photoresists. Next, the color resist 102 is exposed, developed, and the like by conventional lithography techniques to form a desired pattern in the pattern region 202. When the exposure is performed, since the surface profile is undulating (not shown in the figure) when the CMOS transistor is previously fabricated, local scattering is caused to cause glare. The color resist 102 in the unpatterned area 204 is exposed to the faint light, 5 paper size is applicable to the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210 X 297 mm) " (Please read the back note and fill out this page) •Installation--------Book---------.

Invention description (w) or hot roast When the control is improper, it is easy to cause the photoresist residue 110 to be formed in the non-pattern area 204 after the lithography. Since the color resist 102 is mostly a high molecular polymer, the photoresist residue 110 is also a high molecular polymer. Like the general high molecular polymer, the photoresist residue 110 is mostly non-polar, and its surface is mostly an alkyl group, so that the surface of the photoresist residue 110 has a functional group on the surface of -CH3R. Referring to Figure 2B, the substrate 100 is subjected to high pressure spray washing with DI water added with a surfactant. Surfactants used include sulfonates such as Tergital or Teryitox®, represented by R-S03NH4. By the interfacial action of the non-polar terminal-R of the surfactant R-S03NH4 on the residual non-polar photoresist residue 110, the force is surrounded and dissolved, and then subjected to high-pressure spray washing, and the polar deionized water is used to pull The polar end of the surfactant is introduced to effectively carry away the photoresist residue 110 coated with the surfactant. Referring to FIG. 2C, the photoresist residue 110 remaining on the non-pattern area 204 can be effectively removed by the surfactant and deionized water plus the high-pressure spray power, leaving only in the pattern area 202.

Invention Description (€ ) For the color resist 102, please refer to the first embodiment for the material. The color resist 102 is then exposed, developed, and the like in a conventional lithography technique. The photoresist residue 110 is formed in the non-pattern area 204 after development due to fogging or improper baking. Since the photoresist residue 110 is mostly a high molecular polymer, the photoresist residue 110 is like a polymer, mostly non-polar, and its surface is mostly an alkyl group. Therefore, the surface of the photoresist residue 110 is -CH3R. The functional groups on the surface. Referring to FIG. 3B, a photo-resisting residue 110 on the substrate 1 is subjected to a polarization step using an oxygen plasma (〇2 Plasma) to change the surface of the photoresist residue 110 in a short time of several seconds. The surface of the photoresist residue 110 is slightly oxidized by the oxygen plasma to cause a C-OH bond on the surface to replace the original -CH3 bond, thereby achieving surface polarization of the photoresist residue 110. Acting to form a photoresist residue having a polarity ll 〇 a. Thus, the hydrophobic residue 110 which is originally hydrophobic becomes hydrophilic. In addition, since the time for the polarization using the oxygen plasma is extremely short, only the effect of surface polarization is achieved, so that the thickness of the normal color resist 102 is not damaged. Referring to Figure 3C, the substrate 1 is rinsed with deionized water (H20) to remove the polarized photoresist residue 110a. Since the water molecules of the deionized water have polarity, the polarized photoresist residue 110a has an attracting effect, so that the polarized photoresist residue 110a is attracted by the deionized water and carried away, thereby effectively removing the photoresist residue. The purpose of the object. Referring to FIG. 3D, the photoresist residue 110 remaining on the non-pattern area 204 can be effectively removed by the polarization of the oxygen plasma and the rinse of the deionized water, leaving the pattern area 202 A color photoresist 102 is required. 7 This paper size is applicable to China National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210 X 297 mm) (please read the note on the back side and then fill out this page) · Install tT---------- 1282914 A7 5705twf.doc/008 B7, V.
