Abstract

The invention discloses a low-etching photoresist cleaning agent, which is characterized in that the invention comprises (a) quaternary ammonium hydroxide, (b) dimethyl sulfoxide, (c) alkyl glycol aryl ether and derivation of the alkyl glycol aryl ether whose molecular formula is like the indication of formula I, (d) aminoethyl alcohol, (e) water, (f) inhibitor, in the formula I, R1 chooses arylamine which contains 6 to 18 carbon atoms, m=2 to 6, n-1 to 6. The invention also provides a cleaning method for using the cleaning agent, which is characterized in that indoor temperature is less than 85 DEG C, a semiconductor crystal with photo resist is cleaned by low-etching photoresist cleaning agent, and then which is cleaned by deionized water, and is dried in nitrogen. The cleaning agent of the invention can be used for removing photo resist (light blockage) or other residues on metals, metal alloy, or dielectric substrate. The cleaning agent has strong cleaning ability, which has an obvious effect of corrosion inhibition to metals such as earth silicon, copper, phosphorus, and stannum and low K dielectric material and the like, and no black dots can be guaranteed, and the invention has a good application prospect in the microelectron field such as the cleaning of semiconductor crystal and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a low-etching photoresist cleaning agent and a cleaning method thereof. Background technique [0002] In the usual semiconductor manufacturing process, a photoresist mask is formed on the surface of metals such as silicon dioxide, Cu (copper), and low-k materials, and pattern transfer is performed by wet or dry etching after exposure. Low temperature and fast cleaning process is an important direction for the development of semiconductor wafer manufacturing process. In addition, during the chemical cleaning process of the photoresist on the semiconductor wafer, the cleaning agent with a higher pH will cause corrosion of the wafer substrate. Especially in the process of using chemical cleaning agents to remove metal etching residues, metal corrosion is a common and very serious problem, which often leads to a significant decrease in wafer yield. [0003] The patent document WO04059700 utilizes an alkaline cleaning agent compos...
