本申請主張2013年11月4日提交的韓國專利申請KR 10-2013-0132820的權益,在此將其全文藉由引用的方式併入本申請中。 This application claims the benefit of Korean Patent Application KR 10-2013-0132820 filed on November 4, 2013, the entire contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference into this application.

本發明係關於一種液晶顯示器用陣列基板的製造方法。 The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing an array substrate for a liquid crystal display.

在半導體裝置中,在基板上形成金屬佈線的步驟通常包括:使用濺射等形成金屬膜、塗覆光刻膠、進行曝光和顯影以便在選擇性區域上形成光刻膠,以及進行蝕刻,其中,在其每個單獨的步驟之前或之後進行清洗步驟。蝕刻步驟是使用光刻膠作為掩模來使得金屬膜能夠留在選擇性區域的步驟,並且蝕刻步驟通常包括:使用等離子體等的乾法蝕刻或者使用蝕刻劑組合物的濕法蝕刻。 In a semiconductor device, the steps of forming a metal wiring on a substrate generally include forming a metal film using sputtering or the like, coating a photoresist, performing exposure and development to form a photoresist on a selective area, and performing etching, wherein , Before or after each of its individual steps. The etching step is a step of using a photoresist as a mask to enable the metal film to remain in a selective region, and the etching step generally includes: dry etching using plasma or the like or wet etching using an etchant composition.

通常,對於柵線和資料線的材料,所使用的是包括導電性良好且電阻低的銅的銅膜層或銅合金膜層或者與上述層的介面黏合性良好的金屬氧化物層。 Generally, as the material of the gate line and the data line, a copper film layer or a copper alloy film layer including copper having good conductivity and low resistance, or a metal oxide layer having good interface adhesion with the above-mentioned layers is used.

在這點上,韓國專利申請公開10-2007-0055259公開 了一種用於Cu基金屬膜的蝕刻劑組合物,該組合物包括用於蝕刻銅-鉬合金膜層的過氧化氫、有機酸、磷酸鹽化合物等。 In this regard, Korean Patent Application Publication No. 10-2007-0055259 is published An etchant composition for a Cu-based metal film is provided. The composition includes hydrogen peroxide, an organic acid, a phosphate compound, and the like for etching a copper-molybdenum alloy film layer.

然而,如果蝕刻劑組合物被應用於Cu基金屬膜的厚膜,那麼該組合物因由磷酸二氫鹽(phosphate monobasic)引起的高錐度而可能在隨後的步驟中出現缺陷問題。 However, if the etchant composition is applied to a thick film of a Cu-based metal film, the composition may cause a defect problem in a subsequent step due to a high taper caused by a phosphate monobasic salt.

同時,韓國專利申請公開10-2010-0090538公開了一種用於Cu基金屬膜的蝕刻劑組合物,包括:過氧化氫(H2O2)、有機酸、磷酸鹽化合物等。 Meanwhile, Korean Patent Application Publication No. 10-2010-0090538 discloses an etchant composition for a Cu-based metal film, including: hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ), an organic acid, a phosphate compound, and the like.

當使用蝕刻劑組合物對銅-鉬膜層進行蝕刻時,形成了線性良好的錐形剖面。然而,當進行鉬-鈮(Mo-Nb)的鉬基金屬膜和Cu基金屬膜的批量蝕刻時,蝕刻速率變得緩慢,鉬-鈮(Mo-Nb)的鉬基金屬膜未被蝕刻,或者產生了殘留物,因而蝕刻性能不好。 When the copper-molybdenum film layer is etched using the etchant composition, a tapered cross section with good linearity is formed. However, when batch etching of a molybdenum-based metal film of Mo-Nb and a Cu-based metal film is performed, the etching rate becomes slow, and the molybdenum-based metal film of Mo-Nb is not etched. Or, a residue is generated, and thus the etching performance is not good.

包括在本發明的用於Cu基金屬膜的蝕刻劑組合物內的亞磷酸藉由調節pH來增強蝕刻速率。如果亞磷酸未包括在本發明的用於Cu基金屬膜的蝕刻劑組合物內,那麼蝕刻速率非常緩慢並且蝕刻剖面因蝕刻速率非常緩慢而可能是差的。 Phosphorous acid included in the etchant composition for a Cu-based metal film of the present invention enhances the etching rate by adjusting the pH. If phosphorous acid is not included in the etchant composition for a Cu-based metal film of the present invention, the etching rate is very slow and the etching profile may be poor due to the very slow etching rate.

含氟化合物是指在水中解離時可產生氟化物離子的化合物。含氟化合物是對鉬合金膜的蝕刻速率具有影響的輔助氧化劑,並且它調節鉬合金膜的蝕刻速率。 A fluorine-containing compound refers to a compound that can generate fluoride ions when dissociated in water. The fluorine-containing compound is an auxiliary oxidant having an influence on the etching rate of the molybdenum alloy film, and it regulates the etching rate of the molybdenum alloy film.

含氟化合物並不沒有特別限制,只要它被用於相關領域,但是較佳選自HF、NaF、NH4F、NH4BF4、NH4FHF、NH4F2、KF、KHF2、AlF3和HBF4中的至少一種,並且更佳為NH4F2The fluorine-containing compound is not particularly limited as long as it is used in related fields, but is preferably selected from HF, NaF, NH 4 F, NH 4 BF 4 , NH 4 FHF, NH 4 F 2 , KF, KHF 2 , AlF At least one of 3 and HBF 4 and more preferably NH 4 F 2 .

包括在本發明的用於Cu基金屬膜的蝕刻劑組合物內 的唑化合物用於調節Cu基金屬膜的蝕刻速率、降低圖案的CD損失並且藉由減少蝕刻剖面變化來提高步驟餘量。 Included in the etchant composition for a Cu-based metal film of the present invention The azole compound is used to adjust the etching rate of the Cu-based metal film, reduce the CD loss of the pattern, and increase the step margin by reducing the variation of the etching profile.

上述唑化合物可包括,例如,吡咯、吡唑(pyrazol)、咪唑、三唑、四唑、五唑、噁唑(oxazole)、異噁唑(isoxazole)、噻唑、異噻唑等,並且它可單獨使用或以兩種或更多種的組合使用。在該唑化合物中,較佳為三唑或四唑化合物,並且更佳是選自3-胺基三唑、4-胺基三唑、5-甲基四唑和5-胺基四唑中的至少一種。 The above-mentioned azole compound may include, for example, pyrrole, pyrazol, imidazole, triazole, tetrazole, pentaazole, oxazole, isoxazole, thiazole, isothiazole, and the like, and it may be alone Used or in combination of two or more. Among the azole compounds, triazole or tetrazole compounds are preferred, and more preferably selected from the group consisting of 3-aminotriazole, 4-aminotriazole, 5-methyltetrazole, and 5-aminotetrazole. At least one.

如果在本發明中可以混合並使用3-胺基三唑、4-胺基三唑、5-甲基四唑和5-胺基四唑,那麼較佳根據步驟條件進行計算和應用混合比,因為根據待處理的片材數調節蝕刻速率並減少蝕刻剖面變化的能力隨著化合物不同而不同。 If 3-aminotriazole, 4-aminotriazole, 5-methyltetrazole, and 5-aminotetrazole can be mixed and used in the present invention, it is preferable to calculate and apply the mixing ratio according to the step conditions, This is because the ability to adjust the etch rate and reduce changes in the etch profile according to the number of sheets to be processed varies from compound to compound.

基於用於Cu基金屬膜的蝕刻劑組合物的總重量,唑化合物被設定為0.1~5重量%,較佳為0.5~1.5重量%。 The azole compound is set to 0.1 to 5% by weight, and preferably 0.5 to 1.5% by weight based on the total weight of the etchant composition used for the Cu-based metal film.

在低於0.1重量%的上述量的範圍中,CD損失可能過大。 In the range of the above amount less than 0.1% by weight, the CD loss may be excessive.

另外,在高於5重量%的上述量的範圍中,用於Cu基金屬膜的蝕刻速率太慢並且步驟時間因而延長,並且因金屬氧化物層的蝕刻速率的相對加速而可能產生下切。 In addition, in the range of the above amount of more than 5% by weight, the etching rate for the Cu-based metal film is too slow and the step time is thus prolonged, and undercut may occur due to the relative acceleration of the etching rate of the metal oxide layer.

(E)在分子中具有N原子和羧基的水溶性化合物 (E) Water-soluble compound having N atom and carboxyl group in the molecule

包括在本發明的用於Cu基金屬膜的蝕刻劑組合物內的在分子中具有N原子和羧基的水溶性化合物防止在貯存蝕刻劑組合物時可能出現的過氧化氫的自分解,並且也防 止當蝕刻大量的基板時蝕刻特性的變化。 The water-soluble compound having N atoms and carboxyl groups in the molecule included in the etchant composition for a Cu-based metal film of the present invention prevents the self-decomposition of hydrogen peroxide that may occur when the etchant composition is stored, and also Prevent Stop changes in etching characteristics when a large number of substrates are etched.

通常地,在使用過氧化氫的蝕刻劑組合物的情況中,貯藏期因過氧化氫在貯存時的自分解並且它具有容器可能爆炸的危險因素而不長。 Generally, in the case of an etchant composition using hydrogen peroxide, the storage period is not long due to the self-decomposition of hydrogen peroxide during storage and it has a risk factor that a container may explode.

然而,如果包含了在分子中具有N原子和羧基的水溶性化合物,那麼長的貯存期和穩定性因過氧化氫的分解率下降接近10倍而可以得到保證。 However, if a water-soluble compound having an N atom and a carboxyl group in the molecule is included, a long storage period and stability can be ensured because the decomposition rate of hydrogen peroxide is reduced by nearly 10 times.

具體地,在銅層的情況中,如果銅離子被大量地保留在蝕刻劑組合物中,那麼形成鈍化,並且在如燒焦的氧化後而不能進一步蝕刻。然而,這可藉由添加上述化合物進行防止。 Specifically, in the case of a copper layer, if copper ions are largely retained in the etchant composition, passivation is formed, and cannot be further etched after oxidation such as charring. However, this can be prevented by adding the aforementioned compounds.

在低於0.1重量%的上述量的範圍中,因在蝕刻大量的基板(約500片)之後形成鈍化而難以得到足夠的步驟餘量。 In the range of less than 0.1% by weight, it is difficult to obtain a sufficient step margin because passivation is formed after etching a large number of substrates (about 500 pieces).

另外,在高於5重量%的上述量的範圍中,在銅-鉬膜或銅-鉬合金膜的情況中,因鉬膜或鉬合金膜的蝕刻速率緩慢而可能出現對鉬膜或鉬合金膜產生殘留物的問題。 In addition, in the range of the above amount of more than 5% by weight, in the case of a copper-molybdenum film or a copper-molybdenum alloy film, the molybdenum film or molybdenum alloy film may appear due to the slow etching rate of the molybdenum film or molybdenum alloy film.

如果硫酸鹽化合物未包括在用於Cu基金屬膜的蝕刻劑組合物內,那麼因蝕刻速率緩慢而可能出現製造性能變差的問題。 If the sulfate compound is not included in the etchant composition for a Cu-based metal film, a problem that the manufacturing performance may deteriorate due to the slow etching rate may occur.

另外,多元醇表面活性劑藉由在蝕刻Cu膜之後包封溶解在蝕刻劑組合物中的銅離子來抑制過氧化氫的分解反應,並且因而抑制銅離子的活性。 In addition, the polyol surfactant suppresses the decomposition reaction of hydrogen peroxide by encapsulating the copper ions dissolved in the etchant composition after etching the Cu film, and thus suppresses the activity of the copper ions.

當如上抑制銅離子的活性時,能夠在使用蝕刻劑組合物期間穩定地繼續進行步驟。 When the activity of the copper ion is suppressed as described above, it is possible to continue the step stably during the use of the etchant composition.

藉由使用實施例1至4和比較例1至4的用於Cu基金屬膜的各個蝕刻劑組合物來進行蝕刻步驟。使用噴霧型蝕刻機(ETCHER(TFT),購自SEMES),並且將蝕刻步驟中的用於Cu基金屬膜的蝕刻劑組合物的溫度設定為大約33℃。蝕刻的時間可隨著蝕刻的溫度不同而不同,並且LCD蝕刻步驟通常進行約30~80秒。使用SEM(S-4700,購自HITACHI)觀察蝕刻步驟中蝕刻的Cu基金屬膜的切割側和剖面。結果在下面的表2中給出。 The etching step is performed by using each of the etchant compositions for Cu-based metal films of Examples 1 to 4 and Comparative Examples 1 to 4.

(○:良好,△:普通,X:不好,未蝕刻(Unetch):不能蝕刻) (○: Good, △: Normal, X: Not good, Unetch: Unetchable)

實施例1至4中的用於Cu基金屬膜的蝕刻劑組合物都具有良好的蝕刻剖面和平直度,並且不產生鉬(Mo)和鈮(Nb)的殘留物。另外,待處理的片材數的變化量(側蝕的變化量)滿足±0.1μm的條件,並因而可以證實上述組合物具有優異的蝕刻性能。在實施例1至4中,實施例3的用於Cu基金屬膜的蝕刻劑組合物具有最好的蝕刻性能。 The etchant compositions for Cu-based metal films in Examples 1 to 4 all had good etching cross sections and flatness, and did not generate residues of molybdenum (Mo) and niobium (Nb). In addition, the amount of change in the number of sheets to be processed (amount of change in side etching) satisfies the condition of ± 0.1 μm, and thus it can be confirmed that the above composition has excellent etching performance. Among Examples 1 to 4, the etchant composition for a Cu-based metal film of Example 3 has the best etching performance.

然而,不包含亞磷酸的比較例1具有非常低的蝕刻速率,並因而引起未蝕刻。 However, Comparative Example 1 not containing phosphorous acid had a very low etching rate, and thus caused non-etching.

另外,在包含低於0.1重量%的亞磷酸的比較例3的情況中,待處理的片材的數量的變化量滿足0.1μm的條件,但蝕刻剖面和平直度因蝕刻速率非常緩慢而是正常的。 In addition, in the case of Comparative Example 3 containing less than 0.1% by weight of phosphorous acid, the amount of change in the number of sheets to be processed satisfies the condition of 0.1 μm, but the etching profile and flatness are normal because the etching rate is very slow. of.

在包含大於5重量%的亞磷酸的比較例4中,因過度的蝕刻速率而引起圖案出界。 In Comparative Example 4 containing more than 5% by weight of phosphorous acid, the pattern was out of boundary due to an excessive etching rate.

另外,在不包含硫酸鉀的比較例2的情況中,待處理的片材的數量的變化量滿足0.1μm的條件,但蝕刻剖面和平直度都正常,並因而比較例2的組合物不具有優異的蝕 刻性能。 In addition, in the case of Comparative Example 2 not containing potassium sulfate, the amount of change in the number of sheets to be treated satisfies the condition of 0.1 μm, but the etching profile and flatness are normal, and therefore the composition of Comparative Example 2 does not have Excellent eclipse Carved performance.

試驗例2:評價實施例3和比較例1至2的用於Cu基金屬膜的蝕刻劑組合物根據Cu濃度變化的蝕刻特性 Test Example 2: Evaluation of the etching characteristics of the etchant composition for a Cu-based metal film of Example 3 and Comparative Examples 1 to 2 according to a change in Cu concentration

使用實施例3和比較例1至2的用於Cu基金屬膜的蝕刻劑組合物評價根據Cu濃度的蝕刻特性。 The etchant composition for a Cu-based metal film of Example 3 and Comparative Examples 1 to 2 was used to evaluate the etching characteristics according to the Cu concentration.

將Cu/Mo-Nb 3000/300Å的薄膜基板用作蝕刻步驟中的Cu基金屬膜。 A thin film substrate of Cu / Mo-Nb 3000 / 300Å was used as the Cu-based metal film in the etching step.

測得根據Cu濃度變化的側蝕(μm)的變化量。側蝕是指蝕刻後測得的光刻膠的端部和下面金屬的端部之間的距離。如果側蝕的量變化,那麼因為當驅動TFT時信號傳輸速率變化而可能出現污點。因而,較佳最小化側蝕的變化量。 The amount of change in the side etch (μm) according to the change in Cu concentration was measured. Side etching is the distance between the end of the photoresist and the end of the underlying metal measured after etching. If the amount of side etching is changed, stains may occur because a signal transmission rate is changed when the TFT is driven. Therefore, it is preferable to minimize the amount of change in the side etch.

在此評價中,進行實驗以使得:具有±0.1μm的側蝕的變化量的蝕刻劑組合物能夠在蝕刻步驟中連續使用。 In this evaluation, an experiment was performed so that an etchant composition having a change amount of a side etch of ± 0.1 μm can be continuously used in the etching step.

結果在下面的表3中給出。 The results are given in Table 3 below.

Figure TWI615508BD00005

實施例3,本發明的用於Cu基金屬膜的蝕刻劑組合物,即使在高的Cu濃度下也滿足±0.1μm的條件,因而具有優異的蝕刻性能。 In Example 3, the etchant composition for a Cu-based metal film of the present invention satisfies the condition of ± 0.1 μm even at a high Cu concentration, and thus has excellent etching performance.

然而,不包含亞磷酸的比較例1不能蝕刻。 However, Comparative Example 1 which does not contain phosphorous acid cannot be etched.

不包含硫酸鉀的比較例2能夠蝕刻,但是它隨著Cu濃度的增加而變得超過0.1μm的條件的範圍。 Comparative Example 2 not containing potassium sulfate was able to etch, but it became out of the range of the condition of 0.1 μm as the Cu concentration increased.
