Abstract

The invention relates to a silicon nitride film etching solution, comprising first silicone compound, whose silicone atom is dependently combined with over three hydrophilic functional groups, and second silicone compound, whose silicone atom is dependently combined with one or two hydrophilic functional groups.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a silicon nitride film etching solution capable of suppressing generation of silicon-based particles when silicon nitride film etching occurs. Background technique [0002] Generally, a known wet etching method is an etching method through a silicon nitride film on a silicon wafer, using phosphoric acid as an etching solution. When only pure phosphoric acid is used for the etching of the silicon nitride film, there may be a problem that, with the miniaturization of devices, not only the silicon nitride film but also the silicon oxide film are etched, resulting in various defects and Since the pattern is abnormal, it is necessary to further reduce the etching rate of the silicon oxide film. [0003] On the other hand, in order to further increase the etching rate of the silicon nitride film, an attempt has been made to use a compound containing fluorine as an additive, but fluorine has the disadvantage of also increasin...
