Definitions
- the present invention relates to a polishing liquid for copper polishing and a polishing method using the same.
- CMP Chemical mechanical polishing
- a pad also called polishing pad or polishing cloth
- platen a circular polishing surface plate
- polishing pressure a predetermined pressure
- the metal polishing liquid used in CMP generally contains an oxidizer and solid abrasive grains (hereinafter simply referred to as “abrasive grains”), and further contains a metal oxide solubilizer and a protective film forming agent as necessary. .
- the basic mechanism of CMP using a polishing liquid containing an oxidizing agent is that the surface of the metal film is first oxidized by the oxidizing agent to form an oxide layer, and the oxidized layer is scraped off by the abrasive grains. It is thought to be polished. In such a polishing method, the oxide layer on the surface of the metal film embedded in the groove portion of the insulating film does not touch the pad so much and the effect of scraping off by the abrasive grains is not exerted. By removing the substrate surface, the surface of the substrate is planarized (for example, see Non-Patent Document 1 below).
- a copper alloy thin film to be polished has a film thickness of about 1 ⁇ m and a polishing liquid with a polishing rate of about 5000 ⁇ / min is used (for example, see Patent Document 2 below).
- the CMP process for copper alloys has also been applied to the production of high-performance, fine wiring boards such as package substrates, and the formation of through silicon vias (TSVs) that are attracting attention as a new mounting method. It is going to be done.
- TSVs through silicon vias
- the conventional LSI polishing liquid has a problem that the polishing rate is low and the productivity is lowered.
- a metal film having a film thickness of 4 ⁇ m or more needs to be polished. Therefore, a polishing liquid capable of polishing with excellent polishing rate and flatness after polishing is required.
- the flatness after polishing is expressed by the degree of depression of the surface of the embedded wiring with respect to the area around the embedded wiring. As the surface of the wiring is recessed from the peripheral region, the flatness is lowered, which causes deterioration of wiring resistance and undulation of the upper layer laminated on the wiring. As a cause of lowering the flatness, the rate at which copper is eluted from the wiring by the polishing liquid (etching rate) is high. Therefore, the etching rate can be handled as one index for evaluating the flatness. In order to improve the flatness, it is necessary to suppress elution of copper from the wiring, that is, to reduce the etching rate.
- the amount of copper complex generated when polishing a metal film containing copper is more frequently polished at a higher speed than when polished at a relatively low speed. Therefore, when a metal film containing copper is polished at a high speed, a phenomenon (pad stain) in which the copper complex remains on the pad and the characteristics of the pad are deteriorated is a problem.
- the copper complex adhering to the pad causes clogging of the pad and reduces productivity by reducing the polishing rate.

本実施形態に係る研磨液は、(A)成分とは異なる有機酸成分として(H)成分を含有してもよい。(H)成分としては、水酸基を有しない有機酸、当該有機酸の塩及び当該有機酸の酸無水物から選択される少なくとも一種である第2の有機酸成分を使用する。このような(H)成分を(A)成分と併用せずに単独で用いた場合には、研磨速度が向上する場合があるものの、パッドステインの発生を抑制する効果が充分でない傾向にある。一方、本実施形態に係る研磨液では、このような(H)成分を(A)成分と併用することで、パッドステイン抑制効果及び研磨速度の向上効果を更に高度に両立することができる。なお、ここでいう水酸基とは、カルボキシル基に含まれる-OH基を含まないものであり、(H)成分は、カルボキシル基を有する有機酸であってもよい。
(B)成分としては、公知の2価以上の無機酸及び当該無機酸の塩を特に制限なく使用することが可能であり、2価の無機酸及び当該無機酸の塩が好ましい。2価以上の無機酸としては、例えば、硫酸、亜硫酸、ホスホン酸等の2価の無機酸や、リン酸等の3価の無機酸などが挙げられる。これらの無機酸の塩としては、上記無機酸のアンモニウム塩等が挙げられる。これらの(B)成分の中でも、CMPによる研磨速度を更に大きくできると共に、銅膜の平坦性を更に向上できる点で、硫酸と、リン酸と、硫酸及びリン酸の混合物とから選択される少なくとも一種が好ましい。上記(B)成分は、単独で又は二種類以上を組み合わせて使用することができる。なお、1価の無機酸は、研磨速度の向上効果が小さいが、(B)成分と共に併用されてもよい。
(C)成分は、pHを調整し、かつ銅を溶解させる目的で使用されるアミノ酸である。このようなアミノ酸としては、わずかでも水に溶解するものであれば特に制限はなく、例えば、グリシン、アラニン、バリン、ロイシン、イソロイシン、セリン、トレオニン、システイン、シスチン、メチオニン、アスパラギン酸、グルタミン酸、リシン、アルギニン、フェニルアラニン、チロシン、ヒスチジン、トリプトファン、プロリン、オキシプロリン、アスパラギン、グルタミン等が挙げられる。これらは単独で又は二種類以上を組み合わせて使用することができる。
(D)成分である保護膜形成剤とは、銅表面に対して保護膜を形成する作用を有する物質をいい、防食剤やインヒビターとも呼ばれる物質である。ただし、上述のように保護膜形成剤は、研磨進行時に除去される「反応層」を構成していると考えられ、必ずしも銅が研磨されるのを防ぐための「保護膜」を形成する必要はない。

(E)成分としては、特に制限はなく、例えば、シリカ、アルミナ、ジルコニア、セリア、チタニア又は炭化珪素等を含む無機物砥粒、ポリスチレン、ポリアクリル又はポリ塩化ビニル等を含む有機物砥粒を挙げることができる。これらの中でも、研磨液中での分散安定性が良く、CMPにより発生する研磨傷(スクラッチ)の発生数が少ない点で、シリカ及びアルミナが好ましく、平均粒径の制御が容易であり、研磨特性に更に優れる点で、コロイダルシリカ、コロイダルアルミナがより好ましく、コロイダルシリカが更に好ましい。コロイダルシリカの製造方法としては、シリコンアルコキシドの加水分解又は珪酸ナトリウムのイオン交換による方法が知られている。コロイダルアルミナの製造方法としては、硝酸アルミニウムの加水分解による方法が知られている。これらの(E)成分は、単独で又は二種類以上を組み合わせて使用することができる。

研磨液の媒体である(G)成分としては、特に制限されないが、脱イオン水、イオン交換水、超純水等が好ましい。研磨液における(G)成分の含有量は、上記含有成分の含有量の残部でよく、研磨液中に含有されていれば特に限定されない。なお、研磨液は、必要に応じて水以外の溶媒、例えばエタノール、アセトン等の極性溶媒などを更に含有してもよい。
