Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of chemical mechanical polishing, in particular to a chemical mechanical polishing composition and a method for polishing a copper substrate. BACKGROUND

[0002] Chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) is currently the only practical and core technology that can achieve global planarization of wafers. On the one hand, in the traditional IC industry, in order to improve the integration, reduce the energy consumption and shorten the delay time, the line width is continuously narrowed, and low-k materials with low mechanical strength are applied to the dielectric layer, while the number of wiring layers is continuously increased. Under this background, in order to protect the performance and stability of integrated circuits, it is necessary to reduce the polishing pressure while ensuring the copper removal rate, further improve the surface planarization degree of copper lines, and effectively control the surface defects.

[0003] On the other hand, due to physical limitations, the line width cannot be infinitely narrowed, and the semiconductor industry gradually shifts to multi-chip packaging technology. Through-hole silicon technology (TSV) as a leading technology for chip interconnection, realizes interconnection by making vertical conduction between chips and wafers, maximizes the three-dimensional stacking density of chips, reduces the size, and significantly improves the speed and low-power performance of chips. At present, after filling copper in the opening, the TSV process uses CMP to remove the excess copper to achieve planarization. Unlike traditional IC processes, the thickness of the excess copper layer after filling in TSV can reach several to several tens of microns, which requires the polishing liquid to have extremely high copper removal rate while not damaging the surface quality to ensure the flatness of the polished surface. At the same time, due to the long time of the polishing liquid from production, storage to terminal use, the polishing liquid also needs a longer shelf life. SUMMARY

In addition, the polishing composition further comprises a polishing inhibitor and a polishing accelerator, the polishing accelerator preferentially dissolves the oxide film at the convex position to promote material removal, and the polishing inhibitor can be adsorbed at the concave or flat position to inhibit excessive corrosion and ensure the flatness of the surface, thereby realizing the combination of low surface defects and high polishing rate.

[0045] (3) Aging time: the prepared chemical mechanical polishing composition was divided into different sample bottles and aged at 55°C, and the basic physical properties were detected every 6 days.

[0053]

[0054] Table 1 provides the components of the chemical mechanical polishing compositions of Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 1-7, with the type and content of the surfactant adjusted. As can be seen from Table 2, by comparing Examples 1-5, it can be found that the polishing rate and aging time of Examples 1 and 2 are optimal. As can be seen from Comparative Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 1-3, when the weight ratio of the alkyl chain sulfonamide amine and the betaine compound is 1:2-3:1, and the content is within the appropriate range, the polishing rate of Cu is greater than 6500 A / min, and the aging time of the polishing composition is more than 36 days, the alkyl chain sulfonamide amine and the betaine compound can have a good synergistic effect. When the weight ratio of the alkyl chain sulfonamide amine and the betaine compound is too high or too low, the polishing performance of the polishing composition on Cu is general, the aging time is short, and the composite surfactant does not have a synergistic effect. As can be seen from Comparative Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 4-5, when a single component surfactant is used, the polishing performance of the polishing composition on Cu is general, and the aging time is short. In Comparative Example 6, the cationic surfactant polyquaternary ammonium salt-10 and the anionic surfactant dodecyl sulfonamide amine are added together into the polishing composition, and the resulting polishing composition flocculates, and cannot be polished. In Comparative Example 7, the cationic surfactant polyquaternary ammonium salt-10 and the zwitterionic surfactant cocamide propyl betaine are added together into the polishing composition, the polishing performance of the polishing composition on Cu is general, the aging time is short, and the composite surfactant does not have a synergistic effect.
