Embodiment 1-8

[0057] Prepare a solution of hydrogen peroxide and nitric acid according to the ratio in Table 1 below, and add water to 100 grams to prepare an etching solution with the following concentration. A silicon substrate with a silver alloy thin film is coated with a photoresist layer by spin coating; wherein the silver alloy thin film is formed on the silicon substrate by sputtering, and contains more than 98% silver, 0.9% Palladium and more than 1.0% copper. Subsequently, the silicon substrate was exposed to form a patterned photoresist layer; the silicon substrate was then coated or immersed in the etching solution configured according to Table 1, and the etching rate was measured. The results are shown in Table 1 below.

[0058] Example

[0059] After the etching was completed, the silicon substrate was inspected to find that the silicon substrate and the patterned photoresist were not damaged. Therefore, the etchant only selectively etches the silver alloy.

[0061] Prepare a solution of hydrogen peroxide and sulfuric acid according to the ratio in Table 2 below, and add water to 100 grams to prepare an etching solution with the following concentration. A silicon substrate with a silver alloy film is coated with a photoresist layer by spin coating; wherein the silver alloy film is formed on the silicon substrate by sputtering, and contains more than 98% silver, 0.9 % palladium and more than 1.0% copper. Subsequently, the silicon substrate was exposed to form a patterned photoresist layer; the silicon substrate was then coated or immersed in the etching solution configured according to Table 2, and the etching rate was measured. The results are shown in Table 2 below.

[0062] Example

[0063] After the etching was completed, the silicon substrate was inspected to find that the silicon substrate and the patterned photoresist were not damaged. Therefore, the etchant only selectively etches the silver alloy.

[0065] Prepare a solution of hydrogen peroxide, sulfuric acid, and ammonium acetate according to the ratio in Table 3 below, and add water to 100 grams to prepare an etching solution with the following concentration. A silicon substrate with a silver alloy thin film is coated with a photoresist layer by spin coating; wherein the silver alloy thin film is formed on the silicon substrate by sputtering, and contains more than 98% silver, 0.9% Palladium and more than 1.0% copper. Subsequently, the silicon substrate was exposed to form a patterned photoresist layer; the silicon substrate was then coated or immersed in the etching solution configured according to Table 3, and the etching rate was measured. The results are shown in Table 3 below.

Description

[0001] This application is a divisional application of 03147828.X (silver alloy etching solution) [0002] The filing date of the earlier application is: 2003.6.25 [0003] The applicant of this earlier application is Rhenium Technology Co., Ltd. technical field [0004] The invention relates to an etching solution, especially an etching solution suitable for silver alloys. Background technique [0005] Current flat panel display devices, especially organic electroluminescence displays, mostly use chromium metal as the material of wires. But because of the high resistance of chromium metal, researchers have been seeking to use metals with lower resistance as wire materials. In the past, it was proposed to use silver as the wire material of flat-panel display devices, but it has not been widely used because there is no suitable and stable etchant composition. [0006] In recent years, in order to improve the performance of the flat panel display device, researchers still f...
