Definitions
- the present invention generally provides an etching solution that is a mixture of anhydrous HF, a carboxylic acid and water.
- the solution is useful for the etching of oxides used in the fabrication of MEMS devices such as, for example, micro-sensors and micro- machines.
- An important advantage of the etching solution of the present invention is that it has a high etch selectivity for silicon oxide relative to other materials including metals, nitrides and polysilicon that form the structural components of MEMS and electronic devices.
- the etching solution of the present invention can remove sacrificial oxides with only relatively minor etching of these other non-oxide materials.
- the etching solution of the present invention improves the fabrication process of MEMS and electronic devices.
- the etching solution is described further below in one embodiment of the present invention with an example of its use PhosphoSilicate Glass (PSG) created by chemical vapor deposition.
- PSG PhosphoSilicate Glass
- Thermally grown Si0 2 and PSG are two examples of oxide films used as a sacrificial oxide layer in the formation of a micro-machined structure.
- the sacrificial oxide layer is in contact with portions of the micro-structure prior to sacrificial oxide etching.
- the etching solution is also generally applicable to the removal of other types of oxides that may be used in MEMS and electronic devices where metals, nitrides and/or polysilicon materials that form the micro- structure or electronic components could be exposed to the etching solution during oxide removal.
- the carboxylic acid used can be selected generally as any acid having one or more carboxyl groups and more specifically including, for example, oxalic acid, formic acid, lactic acid, tartaric acid, malic acid, succinic acid, citric acid and acetic acid. It has been found that acetic acid, combined with the above identified ingredients, is particularly useful for selectively etching thermally grown Si0 2 and PSG.
- the mixing ratio of anhydrous HF to carboxylic acid is not considered to be critical, but it has been found that a preferred range is approximately 0.1% anhydrous HF, up to the solubility limit of the particular carboxylic acid.
- One preferred mixture, which has shown superior experimental results is approximately 10% anhydrous HF relative to the carboxylic acid. Dilution of the solution with respect to the amount of HF, will result in slower etch rates. It should be understood that the mixing ratio of anhydrous HF to carboxylic acid is not a limitation of the present invention.
- the preferred range of water introduced to one embodiment of the present etching solution is in the range of approximately 0.5% to 5.0% by weight.
- use of an anhydrous carboxylic acid, e.g., glacial acetic acid, is preferred in order to more precisely control the amount of water in the etching solution.
- the etching solution is created by injecting anhydrous HF into an aqueous solution of a carboxylic acid, such as glacial acetic acid, having a precisely controlled minimal amount of water.
- a carboxylic acid such as glacial acetic acid
- the temperature required for use of the etching solution according to the present invention is not considered to be critical. In general, during etching it is preferred to use a cooler temperature of below approximately 30 degrees Celsius (°C), e.g., in the range of approximately 15°C-30°C. An advantage of such a cooler temperature is a reduction in the evaporative loss of the etching solution. Also, it is preferable that the etching solution is in the liquid phase during etching.
- the etching was performed at 18 °C. and the sample etch rates measured as follows:
- Etch selectivities of sacrificial oxides relative to metals, polysilicons, and nitrides are derived from the associated etch rates.
- an etching solution of HF, carboxylic acid, and a minimal controlled amount of water approximately in the ratio of 10:89:1
- the etch selectivity for thermally grown SiO? relative to aluminum or copper is in the range of approximately 9 to 80; whereas, the etch selectivity for thermally grown Si0 2 relative to polysilicon is in the range of approximately 65 to 320.
- the etch selectivity for thermally grown Si0 2 relative to silicon nitride is in the range of approximately 9-40.
- the etch selectivity for PSG relative to aluminum or copper is in the range of approximately 666 to 50,000.
- the etch selectivity for PSG relative to polysilicon is in the range of approximately 5,000 to 200,000.
- the etch selectivity for PSG relative to silicon nitride is in the range of approximately 714 to 25,000.
- the wide range of etch selectivities for PSG is dependent on certain process parameters which include, but are not limited to whether the PSG film is annealed, the phosphorous doping level and the deposition temperature .
