Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method of recycling an abrasive slurry for recycling a used slurry having been used in polishing semiconductor wafer(s).
  • Polishing of semiconductor wafer(s) is generally classified into two major categories of rough polishing and finish polishing according to surface roughness to be made on the semiconductor wafer(s).
  • the semiconductor wafer(s) is usually polished with an ammonia-base colloidal silica slurry having been added with a water-soluble polymer such as ethylcellulose.
  • the colloidal silica slurry having been used in finish polishing has conventionally been discarded because the slurry may contain metal contamination originating from components of a polishing apparatus, a giant silica solid formed by aggregation of silica in the slurry, and the like.
  • a Document 1 JP-A-2002-170793 proposes a method of reproducing a slurry, according to which coarse particles in a CMP (chemical mechanical polishing) slurry are filtrated by a filter and the filtrated slurry is condensed by such a method as centrifugation.
  • CMP chemical mechanical polishing
  • JP-A-2004-63858 proposes a method of retrieving a slurry, according to which aggregated abrasive grains contained in a used slurry are crushed by ultrasound, a temperature of the slurry is adjusted and the aggregated abrasive grains are separated from non-aggregated abrasive grains.
  • a pH value of the colloidal silica slurry may be varied by the time when the slurry is retrieved, so that the retrieved slurry may not be directly recycled.
  • the water-soluble polymer contained in the slurry tends to be aggregated to form a gel.
  • gel-like aggregation can easily clog the filter.
  • finish polishing which is the last process in manufacturing processes of semiconductor wafer(s)
  • greater cautions are required to be paid to metal contamination.
  • An object of the invention is to provide a method of recycling an abrasive slurry, by which a used slurry having been used in polishing semiconductor wafer(s), particularly a slurry having been used in finish polishing, can be recycled, so that considerable reduction in slurry usage can contribute to reduction in manufacturing cost of the semiconductor wafer(s).
  • a method of recycling an abrasive slurry according to an aspect of the invention is for recycling a slurry containing colloidal silica, the slurry being a used slurry having been used in polishing semiconductor wafer(s), the method including:
  • the dispersant may be any one of (1) salt, (2) polarizable molecule and (3) pH stabilizer.
  • the gelled portion of the slurry and the aggregated silica are dispersed by the irradiation of ultrasound, and foreign substance(s) contained therein is removed by the filter.
  • foreign substance(s) can be efficiently removed by the filter while an amount of silica contained in the slurry can be prevented from being reduced due to a capture of gelled and aggregated silica by the filter.
  • the used slurry can be favorably recycled.
  • a pH value of the used slurry is measured and the pH value is adjusted by adding an alkali solution before the dispersant is added to the used slurry.
  • An example of the alkali solution for adjusting the pH value is ammonia water.
  • the slurry and silica can be further prevented from being aggregated.
  • viscosity of the used slurry is preferably measured and adjusted with a supplement of a water-soluble polymer before the dispersant is added to the used slurry.

  • gelled substance(s) contained in the used slurry can be dispersed therein at the optimal temperature condition.
  • metal ion contained in the used slurry is preferably removed after the ultrasound is irradiated to the used slurry.
  • An exemplary method of removing the metal ion is to add a chelate agent to the used slurry.
  • the chelate agent may be an organic-base agent formed of aminocarboxylate.
  • examples of the chelate agent are EDTA (ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid), DTPA (diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid) and NTA (nitrilotriacetic acid).
  • the metal ion having been mixed into the slurry during polishing can be removed.
  • semiconductor wafer is polished with the used slurry, it is possible to prevent the semiconductor wafer(s) from being contaminated by metal ion.

  • the plural shuttering boards 31 are arranged such that the plural shuttering boards 31 as a whole reduces its height as extending to a lateral lace 32 (i.e., where an outlet is provided) from a side to which the collected slurry is supplied. Then, when the used slurry is supplied in a first processing tank and subsequently overflows therein, an amount of the overflowing slurry flows into a processing tank contiguous to the first processing tank. This operation is sequentially repeated, and then the used slurry is finally ejected from the outlet.

In contrast, the slurry according to the experiment example 1 (slurry irradiated with ultrasound) has been found to have restored a value of the zeta potential up to a zeta potential level of the slurry according to the experiment example 4. From the above, slurry dispersivity thereof has been found considerably enhanced.

In addition, the slurry reproduced by the method of the experiment example 3 exhibited a smaller value of the average particle diameter than the slurries according to the other experiment examples. In this respect as well, it has been found that the slurry according to the experiment example 3 is favorably applicable to polishing.
