Embodiment Construction

[0017] The present invention is a further improvement to the existing cleaning method, that is, after the Cu CMP process of the wafer, first use the CTS-100 solution to clean the wafer, and check the wafer before entering the next process, if If the wafer is not oxidized and has no impurities on the surface, it will directly enter the next process. If there are abnormal residual impurities on the surface of the wafer, the wafer needs to be further processed, that is, to be cleaned again before entering the next process. And the present invention just makes great improvement to the cleaning liquid in this process, and what this cleaning liquid uses is a kind of new alkaline cleaning liquid, and its pH value is in the scope of 7~9 about, like this again to crystal When cleaning the circle, because the cleaning solution is weakly alkaline, it is difficult for the cleaning solution to react with metal oxides, let alone corrode the metal, and it is easy to clean away other impuritie...

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for cleaning abnormal residue on the surface of a wafer after Cu CMP processing procedure. The method comprises the steps as follows: the wafer after the Cu CMP processing procedure is put into CTS-100 solution to be cleaned for removing impurity; the wafer is checked further before the next procedure, if the surface of the wafer has no the abnormal residue, the next procedure starts directly; if the surface of the wafer also has the abnormal residue, the wafer is put into cleaning solution with the pH value between 7 and 9 to be cleaned; and the cleaned wafer is processed for next procedure. The method can reduce the cleaning time of the wafer and improve the yield of the wafer.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a cleaning method, in particular to a method for cleaning abnormal particles on the surface of wafers in the field of photolithography after the Cu CMP process. Background technique [0002] During the Cu manufacturing process of the wafer, after the wafer undergoes CMP (Chemical Mechanical Polishing, chemical mechanical polishing), many impurities, such as abrasives, abnormally small particles, etc., remain on the surface of the wafer, which requires cleaning fluid to remove Impurities. The current general practice is to clean the wafer in CTS-100 solution after grinding. Before the wafer enters the next process, the wafer needs to be inspected. If the wafer surface is clean and free of impurities, it can be directly entered In the next process, if there are particles on the surface of the wafer due to abnormal conditions, the product will be scrapped, and the next process cannot be entered immediately. At this time, the wafe...
