所述刻蚀液中的过氧化氢在紫外线的辐照过程中能够产生羟基自由基,而羟基自由基是一种重要的活性氧,具有极强的电子能力即氧化能力,是自然界中仅次于氟的氧化剂,通过电子束和过氧化氢的协同氧化反应,氧化铜钼,简单来说,紫外线可以增强过氧化氢氧化铜钼的能力,加快反应速率,进而提高刻蚀效率。
臭氧是强氧化剂,与过氧化氢协同对铜钼进行氧化,也可提高刻蚀效率,另一方面,在增加过氧化氢氧化能力的同时,可减少刻蚀液中各组分的用量,降低刻蚀液的成本,也有利于提高刻蚀液在生产、储存以及运输当面的安全性。
本实施例中的有机酸为2-羟基丙烷-1,2,3-三羧酸,调节剂为二异丙醇胺,螯合剂为8-羟基喹啉,无机盐为氯化钠,抑制剂为苯骈三氮唑。
各组分占刻蚀液的总体质量分数为:过氧化氢6%、2-羟基丙烷-1,2,3-三羧酸7%、二异丙醇胺3.5%、8-羟基喹啉1.5%、氯化钠0.1%、苯骈三氮唑0.01%、去离子水81.89%。
在刻蚀过程中,通过调节紫外线的光照强度、光照时间、以及臭氧的浓度来控制铜钼膜层的刻蚀速度,在本实施中,刻蚀温度为30摄氏度,用波长为253.7纳米的紫外灯照射,照射强度为1.0毫瓦每立方厘米,向所述刻蚀装置内充注臭氧,使得装置内的臭氧浓度为0.4毫克每升。
如图2所示,利用扫描电子显微镜对刻蚀过程中的膜层进行观察,得到刻蚀后的铜钼膜层的端部的锥角(铜钼膜层的侧面与基板所在的平面形成的夹角)为51.9度,CD Loss(金属线的条宽损失,光刻胶正投影下的被刻蚀掉的铜钼膜层的长度)为1.048微米,且没有钼残留的痕迹,一般刻蚀后的锥角范围为30~60度,CD Loss为1.2微米以下,刻蚀效果较好。
如图3所示,基于上述的用于铜钼的刻蚀方法,本发明还提供一种铜钼的刻蚀装置10,包括:密封的腔体11;载物台12;刻蚀液喷头15;紫外灯13;臭氧充注口14。
所述载物台12设置于所述腔体的底部,用以承载待刻蚀的基板17,所述基板为沉积有铜钼膜层的玻璃基板,且铜钼膜层表面形成有预定图案的光刻胶,用以保护设定区域的铜钼膜层不被刻蚀。
所述紫外灯13设置于所述腔体11上,较佳地设置于所述腔体11的上部,所述紫外灯13可间隔设置多个,具体数量以实际刻蚀装置大小来确定,所述紫外灯13可对所述腔体内部进行均匀的紫外线的辐射。
所述刻蚀液喷头15设置于所述腔体11的顶部,较佳地设置于所述基板17的正上方,使得喷射出的刻蚀液均匀的分布在所述基板17上。
所述臭氧充注口14设置于所述腔体11上,较佳地设置于所述腔体的侧壁上,所述臭氧充注口14所在的高度处于所述刻蚀液喷头15与所述基板17之间,使得所述臭氧充注口14注入的臭氧充分的作用在所述刻蚀液中的过氧化氢上。
所述紫外灯13辐射出的紫外线波长为200~390纳米,照射强度为0.5~2毫瓦每立方厘米,所述腔体11内部的所述臭氧的浓度为0.05~10毫克每升。
在进行铜钼膜层刻蚀时,所述刻蚀液作用在所述基板17表面的温度为25~35摄氏度,所述紫外线的辐照时间至少在5分钟以上。
通过控制所述刻蚀装置在铜钼刻蚀过程中的紫外线的强度和辐照时间、以及臭氧的浓度来控制,铜钼刻蚀的速度,使得铜钼膜层具有合适的刻蚀轮廓,并且控制在相应的CD Loss下,没有钼残留。
有益效果:本发明提供的用于铜钼膜层的刻蚀方法和刻蚀装置,能够提高刻蚀效率和产能,另外,也能够减少刻蚀液的用量,进而降低刻蚀液的成本。
综上所述,虽然本发明已以优选实施例揭露如上,但上述优选实施例并非用以限制本发明,本领域的普通技术人员,在不脱离本发明的精神和范围内,均可作各种更动与润饰,因此本发明的保护范围以权利要求界定的范围为准。
