以下に記載する構成要件の説明は、本発明の代表的な実施形態に基づいてなされる場合があるが、本発明はそのような実施形態に限定されるものではない。

また、本発明における「放射線」とは、例えば、遠紫外線、極紫外線(EUV;Extreme ultraviolet)、X線、又は、電子線等を意味する。また、本発明において光とは、活性光線又は放射線を意味する。本発明中における「露光」とは、特に断らない限り、遠紫外線、X線又はEUV等による露光のみならず、電子線又はイオンビーム等の粒子線による描画も露光に含める。
本発明の薬液(以下、「本薬液」ともいう。)は、有機溶剤と、有機不純物と、金属不純物と、を含有し、上記有機不純物が、リン酸エステルと、アジピン酸エステルと、を含み、上記アジピン酸エステルの含有量に対する上記リン酸エステルの含有量の質量割合が1以上である。
このような問題に対して検討を重ねたところ、本発明者らは、後述の実施例欄にも示すように、有機不純物であるアジピン酸エステルの含有量に対するリン酸エステルの含有量の質量割合が1以上であれば、金属不純物を含む欠陥の発生を抑制できることを見出した。
より具体的にいえば、アジピン酸エステルの含有量に対するリン酸エステルの含有量の質量割合を制御することで、これに起因する残渣を制御できることを見出した。そのメカニズムは推定になるが、次の理由によるものと考えられる。すなわち、アジピン酸エステルとリン酸エステルはいずれも金属に対して配位能を有する。しかしながら、この配位能はほぼ同等であるが、形成後の錯体の状態は異なる。アジピン酸エステルは、そのカルボキシル由来の骨格を経由しその他の元素(Si基板等)と作用しやすく、結果として残渣となってしまう。一方で、リン酸エステルはリン酸基がアルキル化されているために、その骨格に他元素と相互作用する能力は小さい。つまり、リン酸エステルは金属と作用した後に錯体として残りにくい性質がある。そのため、アジピン酸エステルの含有量に対するリン酸エステルの含有量の質量割合が1以上であれば、リン酸エステルの錯体量が相対的に多くなり、結果として残渣が少なくなったと推定される。
薬液は、有機溶剤を含有する。本明細書において、有機溶剤とは、薬液の全質量に対して、1成分あたり10,000質量ppmを超えた含有量で含有される液状の有機化合物を意図する。つまり、本明細書においては、薬液の全質量に対して10,000質量ppmを超えて含有される液状の有機化合物は、有機溶剤に該当するものとする。
なお、本明細書において液状とは、25℃、大気圧下において、液体であることを意味する。
また、有機溶剤としては、例えば、特開2016-057614号公報、特開2014-219664号公報、特開2016-138219号公報、及び、特開2015-135379号公報に記載のものを用いてもよい。

なお、薬液中における有機溶剤の種類及び含有量は、ガスクロマトグラフ質量分析計を用いて測定できる。
薬液は、有機不純物を含有する。有機不純物は、薬液中に添加されてもよいし、薬液の製造工程において意図せず混合されるものであってもよい。薬液の製造工程において意図せず混合される場合としては例えば、有機不純物が、薬液の製造に用いる原料(例えば、有機溶剤)に含有されている場合、及び、薬液の製造工程で混合する(例えば、コンタミネーション)等が挙げられるが、上記に制限されない。

また、リン酸エステルは、有機溶剤の製造装置を構成するOリングなどのゴム部材の可塑剤として用いられる場合があり、このような部材から有機溶剤に溶出して、有機溶剤とともに薬液中に含まれるものであってもよい。
また、アジピン酸エステルは、有機溶剤の製造時に生じる副生成物として、有機溶剤とともに薬液中に含まれるものであってもよい。
アジピン酸エステルの具体例としては、アジピン酸ビス(2-エチルヘキシル)(DOA、別名:アジピン酸ジオクチル)およびアジピン酸モノメチル(MMAD)等が挙げられ、金属不純物を含む欠陥抑制により優れる点から、アジピン酸ビス(2-エチルヘキシル)(DOA)が好ましい。
リン酸エステル及びアジピン酸エステルはそれぞれ、本薬液中において、1種を単独で含まれていてもよく、2種以上含まれていてもよい。
本明細書において、本薬液中にリン酸エステルが2種以上含まれている場合、リン酸エステルの含有量は、本薬液中に含まれるリン酸エステルの合計量を意味する。アジピン酸エステルについても同様に、アジピン酸エステルの含有量は、本薬液中に含まれるアジピン酸エステルの合計量を意味する。
リン酸エステルがリン酸トリブチル(TBP)を含む場合、リン酸トリブチルの含有量は、本薬液の全質量に対して、0.005質量ppt~60質量ppmが好ましく、薬液の安定性に優れること、及び、金属不純物を含む欠陥抑制により優れること、の少なくとも一方を満たす点から、0.1質量ppt~40質量ppmがより好ましく、1質量ppt~20質量ppmが特に好ましい。
アジピン酸エステルの含有量は、本薬液の全質量に対して、0.003質量ppt~40質量ppmが好ましく、金属不純物を含む欠陥抑制により優れる点から、0.1質量ppt~10質量ppmがより好ましく、1質量ppt~10質量ppmが特に好ましい。
本発明における有機不純物は、さらに、フタル酸エステルを含有してもよい。フタル酸エステルは、薬液中に添加されたものであってもよい。また、フタル酸エステルは、有機溶剤の製造装置を構成するOリングなどのゴム部材の可塑剤として用いられる場合があり、このような部材から有機溶剤に溶出して、有機溶剤とともに薬液中に含まれるものであってもよい。
フタル酸エステルの具体例としては、フタル酸ジオクチル(DOP)、フタル酸ビス(2-エチルヘキシル)(DEHP)、フタル酸ビス(2-プロピルヘプチル)(DPHP)、フタル酸ジブチル(DBP)、フタル酸ベンジルブチル(BBzP)、フタル酸ジイソデシル(DIDP)、フタル酸ジイソオクチル(DIOP)、フタル酸ジエチル(DEP)、フタル酸ジイソブチル(DIBP)、フタル酸ジヘキシル及びフタル酸ジイソノニル(DINP)等が挙げられる。
本明細書において、本薬液中にフタル酸エステルが2種以上含まれている場合、フタル酸エステルの含有量は、本薬液中に含まれるフタル酸エステルの合計量を意味する。
フタル酸エステルの含有量に対する、アジピン酸エステルの含有量の質量割合(アジピン酸エステルの含有量/フタル酸エステルの含有量)は、10-4~102が好ましく、10-3~10がより好ましく、10-2~10が特に好ましい。上記質量割合が10-3~10の範囲内にあれば、金属不純物を含む欠陥(特に、有機不純物及び金属不純物の両方を含む欠陥、及び、金属原子の酸化物を含む欠陥)の抑制により優れる。
本発明における有機不純物は、さらに、アルコール及びアセトンからなる群より選択される少なくとも1種を含んでもよい。
ここで、上述した通り、本薬液に含まれる有機溶剤は、薬液の全質量に対して10,000質量ppmを超えて含有される液状の有機化合物のことをいう。したがって、有機不純物に分類されるアルコール及びアセトンとは、1成分当りの含有量が本薬液の全質量に対して10,000質量ppm以下であるものを意味する。
なお、本明細書において、有機不純物であるアルコール及びアセトンの含有量の合計とは、本薬液がアセトンを含有しない場合にはアルコールのみの含有量を意味し、本薬液がアルコールを含まない場合には、アセトンのみの含有量を意味する。
有機不純物であるアルコール及びアセトンの含有量の合計に対する、アジピン酸エステルの含有量の質量割合(アジピン酸エステルの含有量/アルコール及びアセトンの含有量の合計)は、10-5~1012が好ましく、10-1~105がより好ましく、10-1~104が特に好ましい。上記質量割合が10-1以上であれば、金属不純物を含む欠陥(特に、有機不純物及び金属不純物の両方を含む欠陥、及び、金属原子の酸化物を含む欠陥)の抑制により優れる。上記質量割合が105以下であれば、金属不純物を含む欠陥(特に、有機不純物及び金属不純物の両方を含む欠陥)の抑制により優れる。
有機不純物であるアルコール及びアセトンの含有量の合計に対する、フタル酸エステルの含有量の質量割合(フタル酸エステルの含有量/アルコール及びアセトンの含有量の合計)は、10-7~1013が好ましく、10-5~1011がより好ましく、10-4~109が特に好ましい。上記質量割合が10-5以上であれば、薬液の安定性に優れ、かつ、金属不純物を含む欠陥(特に、金属原子を含む欠陥)の抑制により優れる。上記質量割合が1011以下であれば、薬液の安定性に優れる。
本発明における有機不純物は、安定化剤を含んでいてもよい。安定化剤は、有機溶剤の経時分解等の抑制を目的として加えられる成分であり、例えば、酸化防止剤が挙げられる。
なお、上述したリン酸エステルが安定化剤(酸化防止剤)として機能する場合であっても、安定化剤には分類しないものとする。
安定化剤の沸点は、薬液の安定性がより向上する点から、150~500℃であるのが好ましく、200~480℃であるのが特に好ましい。なお、本明細書における沸点とは、特に断りのない場合、標準沸点を意味する。
本明細書において、本薬液中に安定化剤が2種以上含まれている場合、安定化剤の含有量は、本薬液中に含まれる安定化剤の合計量を意味する。
有機不純物は、リン酸エステル、アジピン酸エステル、アルコール及びアセトン、並びに、安定化剤以外の有機不純物を含んでいてもよい。
このような有機不純物は、有機溶剤の合成に伴い生成する副生成物、及び/又は、未反応の原料(以下、「副生成物等」ともいう。)等であってもよい。
上記副生成物等としては、例えば、下記の式I~Vで表される化合物等が挙げられる。
上記アルキル基は、鎖中にエーテル結合を有していてもよく、ヒドロキシ基等の置換基を有していてもよい。
なお、R8、R9及びLは、式Vで表される化合物の炭素数が8以上となる関係を満たす。
特に制限されないが、有機溶剤が、アミド化合物、イミド化合物及びスルホキシド化合物である場合は、一形態において、炭素数が6以上のアミド化合物、イミド化合物及びスルホキシド化合物が挙げられる。また、有機不純物としては、例えば、下記化合物も挙げられる。
これらの有機不純物は、精製工程で触れるフィルター、配管、タンク、O-ring、及び、容器等から被精製物又は薬液へと混入するものと推定される。特に、アルキルオレフィン以外の化合物は、ブリッジ欠陥の発生に関連する。
本薬液は、金属不純物(金属成分)を含有する。金属不純物としては、金属含有粒子及び金属イオンが挙げられ、例えば、金属不純物の含有量という場合、金属含有粒子及び金属イオンの合計量を意味する。
薬液の製造方法の好適形態は後述するが、一般に薬液は、既に説明した溶剤と、有機化合物とを含有する被精製物を精製して製造できる。金属不純物は、薬液の製造工程において意図的に添加されてもよいし、もともと被精製物に含有されていてもよいし、又は、薬液の製造過程において、薬液の製造装置等から移行(いわゆるコンタミネーション)したものであってもよい。
金属不純物の含有量は、後述のICP-MS法によって測定される。
本薬液は、金属原子を含む金属含有粒子を含有してもよい。
金属原子としては特に制限されないが、Pb(鉛)原子、Na(ナトリウム)原子、K(カリウム)原子、Ca(カルシウム)原子、Fe(鉄)原子、Cu(銅)原子、Mg(マグネシウム)原子、Mn(マンガン)原子、Li(リチウム)原子、Al(アルミニウム)原子、Cr(クロム)原子、Ni(ニッケル)原子、Ti(チタン)原子、Zn(亜鉛)原子、及び、Zr(ジルコニウム)原子が挙げられる。なかでも、Fe原子、Al原子、Cr原子、Ni原子、Pb原子、及び、Ti原子等が好ましい。
特に、Fe原子、Al原子及びTi原子を含む金属含有粒子の薬液中の含有量を厳密に制御すると、より優れた欠陥抑制性能が得られやすく、Fe原子を含む金属含有粒子の薬液中における含有量を厳密に制御すると、更に優れた欠陥抑制性能が得られやすい。
すなわち、金属原子としては、Fe原子、Al原子、Cr原子、Ni原子、Pb原子、及び、Ti原子等からなる群より選択される少なくとも1種が好ましく、Fe原子、Al原子、及び、Ti原子からなる群より選択される少なくとも1種がより好ましい。
なお、金属含有粒子は、上記金属原子を、1種を単独で含んでいてもよく、2種以上を併せて含んでいてもよい。
なかでも本発明者らの検討によれば、特にEUV(極紫外線)露光のフォトレジストプロセスに適用される薬液においては、その粒子径が、0.5~17nmの金属含有粒子(以下、「金属ナノ粒子」ともいう。)の薬液中における含有量を制御することにより、優れた欠陥抑制性能を有する薬液が得られやすいことがわかった。EUV露光のフォトレジストプロセスにおいては、微細なレジスト間隔、レジスト幅、及び、レジストピッチが求められる場合が多い。このような場合、従来のプロセスではあまり問題とならなかった、より微細な粒子をその個数単位で制御することが求められるのである。
言い換えれば、粒子径が5~17nmの範囲には極大値を有しないのが好ましい。粒子径が5~17nmの範囲には極大値を有さないことにより、薬液はより優れた欠陥抑制性能、特に、より優れたブリッジ欠陥抑制性能を有する。ここで、ブリッジ欠陥とは、配線パターン同士の架橋様の不良を意味する。
また、更に優れた本発明の効果を有する薬液が得られる点で、個数基準の粒子径分布において、粒子径が0.5nm以上、5nm未満の範囲に極大値を有するのが特に好ましい。上記により、薬液は更に優れたブリッジ欠陥抑制性能を有する。
ここで、SP-ICP-MS法とは、通常のICP-MS法(誘導結合プラズマ質量分析法)と同様の装置を使用し、データ分析のみが異なる。SP-ICP-MS法のデータ分析は、市販のソフトウェアにより実施できる。
一方、SP-ICP-MS法では、金属含有粒子の含有量が測定できる。したがって、試料中の金属不純物の含有量から、金属含有粒子の含有量を引くと、試料中の金属イオンの含有量が算出できる。
SP-ICP-MS法の装置としては、例えば、アジレントテクノロジー社製、Agilent 8800 トリプル四重極ICP-MS(inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry、半導体分析用、オプション#200)が挙げられ、実施例に記載した方法により測定できる。上記以外の他の装置としては、PerkinElmer社製 NexION350Sのほか、アジレントテクノロジー社製、Agilent 8900も使用できる。

なお、薬液中における金属ナノ粒子の含有量は、実施例に記載した方法により測定でき、金属ナノ粒子の薬液の単位体積あたりの粒子数(個数)は、有効数字が2桁となるように四捨五入して求める。
ここで、金属ナノ粒子は、複数の原子を含んでいてもよい。例えば、Fe原子、Al原子及びTi原子を含むとは、典型的には、薬液が、Fe原子を含む金属ナノ粒子と、Al原子を含む金属ナノ粒子、及び、Ti原子を含む金属ナノ粒子を全て含む形態が挙げられる。
この場合、薬液の単位体積あたりにおいて、第1酸化鉄ナノ粒子の含有粒子数に対する、第2酸化鉄ナノ粒子の含有粒子数の比(第2酸化鉄ナノ粒子の含有粒子数/第1酸化鉄ナノ粒子の含有粒子数)は、1~109が好ましく、10~108がより好ましく、10~107が特に好ましい。上記比が10~108の範囲にあれば、金属不純物を含む欠陥(特に、金属原子の酸化物を含む欠陥)の抑制により優れる。
この場合、薬液の単位体積あたりの、Feナノ粒子、Alナノ粒子およびTiナノ粒子の含有粒子数の合計は、1~1.0×1015個/cm3が好ましく、1~1.0×1013個/cm3がより好ましい。上記含有粒子数が上記範囲内にあれば、残渣抑制性能がより優れる。

フィルターの細孔径としては特に制限されず、被精製物のろ過用として通常使用される細孔径のフィルターが使用できる。中でも、フィルターの細孔径は、本薬液が含有する粒子(金属含有粒子等)の数を所望の範囲により制御しやすい点で、200nm以下が好ましく、20nm以下がより好ましく、10nm以下が更に好ましく、5nm以下が特に好ましく、3nm以下が最も好ましい。下限値としては特に制限されないが、一般に1nm以上が、生産性の観点から好ましい。
なお、本明細書において、フィルターの細孔径、及び、細孔径分布とは、イソプロパノール(IPA)又は、HFE-7200(「ノベック7200」、3M社製、ハイドロフロオロエーテル、C4F9OC2H5)のバブルポイントによって決定される細孔径及び細孔径分布を意味する。
なお、微小孔径フィルターは単独で用いてもよいし、他の細孔径を有するフィルターと使用してもよい。中でも、生産性により優れる観点から、より大きな細孔径を有するフィルターと使用するのが好ましい。この場合、予めより大きな細孔径を有するフィルターによってろ過した被精製物を、微小孔径フィルターに通液させれば、微小孔径フィルターの目詰まりを防げる。
すなわち、フィルターの細孔径としては、フィルターを1つ用いる場合には、細孔径は5.0nm以下が好ましく、フィルターを2つ以上用いる場合、最小の細孔径を有するフィルターの細孔径が5.0nm以下が好ましい。
フィルターの材料としては特に制限されず、フィルターの材料として公知の材料が使用できる。具体的には、樹脂である場合、ナイロン(例えば、6-ナイロン及び6,6-ナイロン)等のポリアミド;ポリエチレン、及び、ポリプロピレン等のポリオレフィン;ポリスチレン;ポリイミド;ポリアミドイミド;ポリ(メタ)アクリレート;ポリテトラフルオロエチレン、パーフルオロアルコキシアルカン、パーフルオロエチレンプロペンコポリマー、エチレン・テトラフルオロエチレンコポリマー、エチレン-クロロトリフロオロエチレンコポリマー、ポリクロロトリフルオロエチレン、ポリフッ化ビニリデン、及び、ポリフッ化ビニル等のポリフルオロカーボン;ポリビニルアルコール;ポリエステル;セルロース;セルロースアセテート等が挙げられる。中でも、より優れた耐溶剤性を有し、得られる本薬液がより優れた欠陥抑制性能を有する点で、ナイロン(中でも、6,6-ナイロンが好ましい)、ポリオレフィン(中でも、ポリエチレンが好ましい)、ポリ(メタ)アクリレート、及び、ポリフルオロカーボン(中でも、ポリテトラフルオロエチレン(PTFE)、パーフルオロアルコキシアルカン(PFA)が好ましい。)からなる群から選択される少なくとも1種が好ましい。これらの重合体は単独で又は二種以上を組み合わせて使用できる。

また、非対称多孔質膜としては、例えば、細孔の大きさが膜の厚さ内のある位置においてで最小となる膜(これを「砂時計形状」ともいう。)が挙げられる。
中でも、多孔質膜の材料としては、超高分子量ポリエチレンが好ましい。超高分子量ポリエチレンは、極めて長い鎖を有する熱可塑性ポリエチレンを意味し、分子量が百万以上、典型的には、200~600万が好ましい。
