[0051] organic acid The aforementioned organic acid plays a role in controlling the etching rate of a portion or more of the metal-containing film.
[0052] The aforementioned organic acid may include a monocarboxylic acid, a dicarboxylic acid, a tricarboxylic acid, or any combination thereof.
[0053] The number of carbon atoms in the monocarboxylic acid, dicarboxylic acid, and tricarboxylic acid, respectively, can be 1 to 31, 1 to 20, 1 to 10, 1 to 5, or 2 to 3.
[0054] According to one example, the organic acid is, HCOOH; Aliphatic compounds having 1 to 30 carbon atoms (e.g., 1 to 20 or 1 to 15 carbon atoms) or aromatic compounds having 6 to 30 carbon atoms (e.g., 6 to 15 or 6 to 10 carbon atoms); or any combination thereof; including, At least one hydrogen atom among the aliphatic compound and the aromatic compound is optionally a hydroxyl group, a thiol group, an amino group, or a C1-C group. 10 Alkyl groups (e.g., C1-C5 alkyl groups), C1-C 10 Alkoxy groups (e.g., C1-C5 alkoxy groups), C1-C 10 Alkylthio group (e.g., C1-C5 alkylthio group), mono(C1-C 10 Alkyl)amino group (e.g., mono(C1-C5 alkyl)amino group), di(C1-C 10 The alkyl)amino group (e.g., a di(C1-C5 alkyl)amino group), a phenyl group, or any combination thereof may be used as an additional substitute.
[0055] In one example, the aliphatic compound may be a saturated aliphatic compound (e.g., an alkane, a cycloalkane, etc.) or an unsaturated aliphatic compound (e.g., an alkene, an alkyne, a cycloalkene, etc.).
[0056] In other examples, the aliphatic compound may also be an acyclic aliphatic compound (e.g., alkanes, alkenes, alkynes, etc.) or a cyclic aliphatic compound (e.g., cycloalkanes, cycloalkenes, adamantanes, norbornanes, etc.).
[0057] Furthermore, according to other examples, the aliphatic compound may be a linear aliphatic compound (e.g., CH3-CH2-CH2-CH2-CH3, etc.) or a branched aliphatic compound (e.g., CH3-CH(CH3)-CH2-CH3, CH3-C(CH3)2-CH3, etc.).

[0061] Etching modifier The etching modifier, together with the organic acid, interacts with various metal atoms in the metal-containing film that is being treated, thereby playing a role in regulating the etching rate and other parameters.
[0062] The etching modifier includes a hydroxyl-free and nitrogen-containing compound. The "hydroxyl-free and nitrogen-containing compound" means a compound that does not contain a hydroxyl group and contains at least one nitrogen atom as a molecular constituent atom.
[0063] Although we do not intend to limit ourselves to a specific theory, when hydroxyl group-containing nitrogen-containing compounds (e.g., alkanolamines) are used together with the aforementioned oxidizing agents, the high hydrophilicity of the hydroxyl groups contained in the hydroxyl group-containing nitrogen-containing compounds prevents smooth interaction with various metal atoms in the metal-containing film, resulting in ineffective etching rate control.

[0096] Method for treating metal-containing films Using the composition described above, a metal-containing film comprising a first region and a second region, wherein the substances contained in the first region and the substances contained in the second region are different from each other, can be effectively treated. For descriptions relating to the metal-containing film, the first region, and the second region, please refer to the provisions of this specification.
[0097] In one embodiment, the first and second regions may independently contain titanium (Ti), indium (In), aluminum (Al), lanthanum (La), scandium (Sc), gallium (Ga), tungsten (W), molybdenum (Mo), ruthenium (Ru), zinc (Zn), hafnium (Hf), cobalt (Co), copper (Cu), or any combination thereof.

[0099] In further embodiments, the first region may include a metal nitride, a metal oxynitride, or a combination thereof, and the second region may include a conductive metal.
[0100] In further embodiments, the first region comprises titanium nitrides, titan oxynitrides, or combinations thereof, each of which may optionally further include indium (In), aluminum (Al), lanthanum (La), scandium (Sc), gallium (Ga), silicon (Si), or any combination thereof.
[0101] Figures 1A and 12 are diagrams that briefly illustrate one example of a method for treating metal-containing films.
[0102] Referring to Figure 1A, a substrate 10 with a metal-containing film 20a is provided. Although not shown in Figure 1A, various circuit elements, for example, can be selectively placed between the substrate 10 and the metal-containing film 20a.
[0103] The metal-containing film 20a may include a first region 21 and a second region 22. The first region 21 and the second region 22 may be arranged spaced apart from each other or partially or more in contact with each other, and the metal-containing film 20a may have a variety of patterns. The metal-containing film 20a including the first region 21 and the second region 22 may be brought into contact with composition 30 to remove a portion of the metal-containing film 20a. For example, during etching, cleaning and / or polishing processes of the metal-containing film 20a, the metal-containing film 20a may be brought into contact with composition 30. The composition 30 includes oxidizing agents, phosphoric acid, organic acids and etching modifiers as described herein, for a detailed description thereof, refer to what is provided herein.
[0104] According to one example, the etching rate ratio obtained by dividing the first etching rate at which composition 30 etches the first region 21 by the second etching rate at which composition 30 etches the second region 22 is 0.04 or greater. For example, the etching rate ratio obtained by dividing the first etching rate at which composition 30 etches the first region 21 by the second etching rate at which composition 30 etches the second region 22 is 0.05 or more, 0.06 or more, 0.04 to 1.0, 0.05 to 1.0, 0.06 to 1.0, 0.04 to 0.5, 0.05 to 0.5, 0.06 to 0.5, 0.04 to 0.3, 0.05 to 0.3, 0.06 to 0.3, 0.04 to 0.2, 0.05 to 0.2, 0.06 to 0.2, 0.04 to 0.15, 0.05 to 0.15, 0.06 to 0.15, or 0.06 to 0.13.
[0105] Figure 1B is a schematic diagram showing the surface of a metal-containing film 20a that may come into contact with composition 30, wherein the etching area ratio, obtained by dividing the first area of the first region 21 exposed for contact with composition 30 by the second area of the second region 22 exposed for contact with composition 30, is 0.05 to 1.0, 0.05 to 0.9, 0.05 to 0.7, 0.05 to 0.5, 0.05 to 0.4, 0.05 to 0.3, or 0.05 to 0.2.
[0106] When the metal-containing film 20a comes into contact with the composition 30, the interaction of the oxidizing agent, phosphoric acid, organic acid, and etching modifier contained in the composition 30 controls the high reactivity of the metal contained in the metal-containing film 20a (for example, a metal such as molybdenum contained in the second region 22). As a result, the etching rate of the region containing the relatively highly reactive metal among the first region 21 and the second region 22 (for example, the etching rate of the second region 22) is appropriately controlled, and a portion of the first region 21 and a portion of the second region 22 are etched, forming a metal-containing film pattern 20 with a substantially flat surface (for example, with virtually no step difference between the first region 21 and the second region 22), as shown in Figure 2. After the contact step with the composition 30, virtually no by-products derived from the metal-containing film 20a (for example, metal oxides derived from the metal-containing film 20a, such as molybdenum oxide) remain on the surface of the metal-containing film pattern 20. For example, the presence or absence of residual by-products can be confirmed through TEM (Transmission Electron Microscope) analysis, SEM (Scanning Electron Microscope) analysis, etc.
[0107] Figures 3 and 4 are diagrams that briefly illustrate other concrete examples of the metal-containing film treatment method.
[0108] Referring to Figure 3, a substrate 10 is provided which, in addition to the metal-containing film 20a, has an additional material 40 positioned adjacent to the metal-containing film 20a. For explanations of the metal-containing film 20a and the substrate 10 in Figure 3, please refer to Figure 1A.
[0109] The additional substance 40 in Figure 3 is positioned at a distance from the metal-containing film 20a, or in partial or greater contact with it. In this specification, the additional substance 40 means a substance that is positioned adjacent to the metal-containing film 20a, in addition to the metal-containing film 20a, and is present in a region affected by composition 30 when the metal-containing film 20a is treated with composition 30.
[0110] The additional material 40 may include at least one of insulating materials and semiconductor materials. The insulating materials and semiconductor materials may include a variety of known materials.
[0111] The insulating material may include various oxides, nitrides, oxynitrides, high dielectric materials, or combinations thereof. For example, the insulating material may include silicon oxide, silicon nitride, silicon oxynitride, aluminum oxide, hafnium oxide, hafnium oxynitride, zirconium oxide, or combinations thereof. The hafnium oxide and hafnium oxynitride may further optionally include Si, Ta, Ti, Zr, or any combination thereof. Further examples of insulating materials may include TEOS (tetraethyl orthosilicate), HSQ (hydrogen silsesquioxane), MSQ (methyl silsesquioxane), etc.
[0112] The semiconductor material may include, for example, as a material contained in a channel, a group IV semiconductor material such as silicon, germanium (Ge), silicon germanium (SiGe), silicon carbide (SiC), a group III-V semiconductor material such as gallium arsenide (GaAs), indium arsenide (InAs), indium phosphide (InP), an oxide semiconductor, a nitride semiconductor, an oxynitride semiconductor, and so on. The oxide semiconductor may include, for example, IGZO (Indium Gallium Zinc Oxide), ITZO (Indium Tin Zinc Oxide), ITGO (Indium Tin Gallium Oxide), IWO (Indium Tungsten Oxide), ITO (Indium Tin Oxide), ZnO, Cu2O, or any combination thereof.
[0113] As shown in Figure 3, the metal-containing film 20a, including the first region 21 and the second region 22, and the additional substance 40 may be brought into contact with composition 30, thereby removing a portion of the metal-containing film 20a. For example, during etching, cleaning, and / or polishing processes of the metal-containing film 20a, including the first region 21 and the second region 22, the metal-containing film 20a may be brought into contact with composition 30. The composition 30 includes oxidizing agents, phosphoric acid, organic acids, and etching modifiers as described herein, for a detailed description thereof, refer to the foregoing.
[0114] When the metal-containing film 20a comes into contact with the composition 30, a portion of the metal-containing film 20a may be removed. Specifically, when the metal-containing film 20a comes into contact with the composition 30, the interaction of the oxidizing agent, phosphoric acid, organic acid, and etching modifier contained in the composition 30 controls the high reactivity of the metal contained in the metal-containing film 20a (for example, a metal such as molybdenum contained in the second region 22). As a result, the etching rate of the region containing the relatively highly reactive metal among the first region 21 and the second region 22 (for example, the etching rate of the second region 22) is appropriately controlled, and a portion of the first region 21 and a portion of the second region 22 are etched, forming a metal-containing film pattern 20 with a substantially flat surface (for example, with virtually no step difference between the first region 21 and the second region 22), as shown in Figure 4. After the contact step with the composition 30, virtually no by-products derived from the metal-containing film 20a (for example, metal oxides derived from the metal-containing film 20a along with molybdenum oxide) remain on the surface of the metal-containing film pattern 20. Furthermore, for example, an additional material 40 comprising at least one of an insulating material and a semiconductor material is not substantially damaged by composition 30.

The oxide semiconductor may include, for example, IGZO (Indium Gallium Zinc Oxide), ITZO (Indium Tin Zinc Oxide), ITGO (Indium Tin Gallium Oxide), IWO (Indium Tungsten Oxide), ITO (Indium Tin Oxide), ZnO, Cu2O, or any combination thereof.
[0118] The gate insulating film may include an insulating material capable of electrically insulating the gate electrode from the channel. For example, the gate insulating film may include various oxides, nitrides, oxynitrides, high dielectric materials, or combinations thereof. For example, the gate insulating film may include silicon oxide, silicon nitride, silicon oxynitride, aluminum oxide, hafnium oxide, hafnium oxynitride, zirconium oxide, or combinations thereof. The hafnium oxide and hafnium oxynitride may further optionally include Si, Ta, Ti, Zr, or any combination thereof.
[0119] The gate electrode may include a barrier layer and a conductive layer. The barrier layer may be disposed, for example, between the gate insulating film and the conductive layer.
[0120] To provide the aforementioned gate electrode, a barrier layer and a conductive layer can be provided. For example, a conductive layer can be provided on the surface of the barrier layer after the barrier layer has been formed, but various modifications are possible, such as forming the barrier layer on the surface of the conductive layer after the conductive layer has been formed, depending on the structure of the channel and / or gate electrode.
[0121] The barrier layer may be provided to prevent peripheral diffusion of conductive metals (e.g., metal ions) contained in the conductive layer and / or to facilitate the smooth deposition of the conductive layer.

[0126] Next, the barrier layer and the conductive layer may be brought into contact with a composition as described herein, and a portion of the barrier layer and a portion of the conductive layer may be etched to form a gate electrode.
[0127] When the barrier layer and conductive layer come into contact with a composition as described herein, the interaction of the oxidizing agent, phosphoric acid, organic acid, and etching modifier contained in the composition controls the high reactivity of the conductive metal contained in the conductive layer. This appropriately controls the etching rate of the conductive layer, while a portion of the barrier layer and a portion of the conductive layer are etched, forming a gate electrode with a substantially flat surface (for example, with virtually no step difference between the barrier layer and the conductive layer). Furthermore, after the contact step with the composition, virtually no by-products (e.g., oxides of conductive metals) originating from the conductive layer remain on the gate electrode surface. Moreover, at least one of the channels and gate insulating films located adjacent to the gate electrode is not substantially damaged by the composition, and a high-quality electronic device including a gate electrode with a precise pattern can be fabricated without damaging the region adjacent to the gate electrode.

[0135] In the transistor structure 100, multiple gate electrodes (or word lines 150 and multiple bit lines 160) are provided so as to intersect each other. Each gate electrode 150 extends in a first direction (e.g., the x-axis direction), and each bit line 160 may extend in a second direction (e.g., the y-axis direction) intersecting the first direction.

Each channel 140 may contain the same semiconductor material as the semiconductor substrate 110 by being formed integrally with the substrate 110. In Figure 7, the channels 140 are formed integrally with the substrate 110, but various modifications are possible, such as the channels 140 being formed separately from the substrate 110.
[0140] A source (S) and a drain (D) are provided at the bottom and top of each channel 140, respectively. The source (S) is provided to be electrically connected to the bottom of channel 140, and the drain (D) is provided to be connected to the top of channel 140. For example, the source (S) and drain (D) may be formed through doping region formation. The capacitor 3500 shown in Figure 5 may be connected to the drain (D) located at the top of channel 140.
[0141] On the upper surface of the substrate 110, sources (S) are provided in an array corresponding to the channels 140. Below these sources (S), a plurality of bit lines 160 extend along a second direction (e.g., the y-axis direction). Here, each bit line 160 can electrically connect the sources (S) arranged along the second direction. The plurality of bit lines 160 are formed inside the substrate 110 and may contain the same semiconductor material as the substrate 110. The bit lines 160 in Figure 7 can be formed separately using a material other than the substrate 110, and various modifications are possible.
[0142] Multiple insulating materials 170 may be provided in the substrate 110 between the multiple bit lines 160. The multiple insulating materials 170 can separate the multiple bit lines 160 into the interior of the substrate 110 by extending along a second direction aligned with the multiple bit lines 160. These insulating materials 170 may include, for example, silicon oxide, silicon nitride, silicon oxynitride, aluminum oxide, hafnium oxide, hafnium oxynitride, zirconium oxide, or combinations thereof.
[0143] A gate insulating film 130 is provided on the surface of the channel 140. The gate insulating film 130 may include insulating materials as described herein, such as silicon oxide, silicon nitride, silicon oxynitride, aluminum oxide, hafnium oxide, hafnium oxynitride, zirconium oxide, or combinations thereof.
[0144] As described above, in the substrate 110 provided with the channel 140 and gate insulating film 130, a barrier layer 151 containing a metal nitride, metal oxynitride, or a combination thereof and a conductive layer 152 containing a conductive metal are provided within the trench defined by the gate insulating film 130, as shown in Figure 7. For example, the conductive layer 152 can be provided on the surface of the barrier layer 151 after the barrier layer 151 has been formed, but various modifications are possible, such as forming the barrier layer 151 on the surface of the conductive layer 152 after the conductive layer 152 has been formed, depending on the structure of the channel 140 and / or gate electrode 150. For explanations of the metal nitride and / or metal oxynitride contained in the barrier layer 151 and the conductive metal contained in the conductive layer 152, please refer to the provisions herein.
[0145] Next, as shown in Figure 7, an embedded insulating layer 180 is provided within the trench defined in part or more by the conductive layer 152. The embedded insulating layer 180 serves to protect the gate electrode 150 in Figure 8 from penetration by oxygen and other elements. After the formation of the embedded insulating layer 180, a planarization process may be further performed as needed to expose the upper surfaces of the barrier layer 151 and the conductive layer 152.
[0146] Next, the exposed upper surfaces of the barrier layer 151 and the conductive layer 152 are brought into contact with composition 30, and a portion of the barrier layer 151 and a portion of the conductive layer 152 are etched to form a gate electrode 150 having a pattern as shown in Figure 8. In Figure 7, composition 30 comprises an oxidizing agent, phosphoric acid, organic acid, and etching modifier as described herein, for a detailed description thereof, refer to the foregoing.
[0147] The etching rate ratio obtained by dividing the first etching rate at which composition 30 etches the barrier layer 151 by the second etching rate at which composition 30 etches the conductive layer 152 is 0.04 or higher. For example, the etching rate ratio obtained by dividing the first etching rate at which composition 30 etches the barrier layer 151 by the second etching rate at which composition 30 etches the conductive layer 152 is 0.05 or more, 0.06 or more, 0.04 to 1.0, 0.05 to 1.0, 0.06 to 1.0, 0.04 to 0.5, 0.05 to 0.5, 0.06 to 0.5, 0.04 to 0.3, 0.05 to 0.3, 0.06 to 0.3, 0.04 to 0.2, 0.05 to 0.2, 0.06 to 0.2, 0.04 to 0.15, 0.05 to 0.15, 0.06 to 0.15, or 0.06 to 0.13.
[0148] On the other hand, the etching area ratio obtained by dividing the first area of the barrier layer 151 exposed for contact with composition 30 by the second area of the conductive layer 152 exposed for contact with composition 30 is also 0.05~1.0, 0.05~0.9, 0.05~0.7, 0.05~0.5, 0.05~0.4, 0.05~0.3, or 0.05~0.2.
[0149] When the barrier layer 151 and the conductive layer 152 come into contact with the composition 30, the interaction of the oxidizing agent, phosphoric acid, organic acid, and etching modifier contained in the composition 30 controls the high reactivity of the conductive metal contained in the conductive layer 152. As a result, the etching rate of the conductive layer 152 is appropriately controlled, and a portion of the barrier layer 151 and a portion of the conductive layer 152 are etched, forming a gate electrode 150 with a substantially flat upper surface (for example, there is substantially no step difference between the barrier layer 151 and the conductive layer 152), as shown in Figure 8. After the contact step with the composition 30, virtually no by-products (for example, oxides of conductive metals) originating from the conductive layer 152 remain on the surface of the gate electrode 150. Furthermore, the channel 140, gate insulating film 130, and embedded insulating layer 180, which are positioned adjacent to the gate electrode 150, are not substantially damaged by the composition 30, and a high-quality electronic device 3000 including a gate electrode 150 with a precise pattern can be fabricated without damaging the regions adjacent to the gate electrode 150, such as the channel 140, gate insulating film 130, and embedded insulating layer 180.
[0150] In Figure 8, the multiple gate electrodes 150 on the substrate 110 may be arranged to extend along a first direction (for example, the x-axis direction). The first direction may intersect with the second direction described above. For example, the first direction may be perpendicular to the second direction. However, it is not necessarily limited to these.
[0151] Each gate electrode 150 is provided to correspond to channels 140 arranged along a first direction. Specifically, each gate electrode 150 may be provided to surround channels 140 arranged along a first direction. Such gate electrodes 150 serve as word lines.
[0152] Multiple gate electrodes 150 may be provided such that multiple insulating materials 170 provided below them intersect. The upper surface of the insulating material 170 may be provided adjacent to the lower surface of the gate electrode 150. Here, the upper part of the insulating material 170 may, but is not limited to, be provided so as to protrude from the bottom of the gate electrode 150.
[0153] Next, as shown in Figure 9, an insulating layer 190 may be further provided on the surface of the etched barrier layer 151 and the surface of the etched conductive layer 152. The insulating layer 190 serves to further insulate the gate electrode 150 from the channel 140 and may include, for example, an insulating material as described herein.
[0154] Electronic device manufacturing method Referring to Figure 10, one embodiment of an electronic device manufacturing method may include the steps of: preparing a substrate provided with a metal-containing film (S100); contacting the metal-containing film with a composition as described herein (S110); and fabricating an electronic element using subsequent steps 120. The subsequent steps may include a variety of known steps for fabricating an electronic element, such as a capacitor formation step.
[0155] Example 1 and Comparative Examples C1, C2, and C21 The substances weighed according to the content listed in Table 1 were mixed to prepare the compositions of Example 1 and Comparative Examples C1, C2, and C21, respectively. The remainder of each composition is water (deionized water).
[0156] Evaluation Example 1 The composition of Example 1 was placed in three separate beakers and heated to 60°C. Then, 1cm x 1cm specimens of titanium nitride-containing film, molybdenum film, and silicon oxide film were immersed in each beaker for 1 minute. The thicknesses of the titanium nitride-containing film, molybdenum film, and silicon oxide film were measured using an ellipsometer (M-2000, JAWoolam), a four-point resistance meter, and XRF (X-Ray Fluorescence Spectroscopy). The etching rate of the titanium nitride-containing film by the composition of Example 1 (also referred to as the "titanium nitride-containing film etching rate"), the etching rate of the molybdenum film by the composition of Example 1 (also referred to as the "molybdenum film etching rate"), the etching rate ratio R obtained by dividing the titanium nitride-containing film etching rate by the molybdenum film etching rate, and the etching rate of the silicon oxide film by the composition of Example 1 (also referred to as the "silicon oxide film etching rate") were evaluated, and the results, along with the pH of Example 1, are summarized in Table 1. The unit for each etching rate is "A / min".
[0157] The above tests were repeated using compositions C1 and C2 respectively, and the results are summarized in Table 1.
[0158] For the composition of Comparative Example C21, in order to proceed with the evaluation in the same manner as in Evaluation Example 1, the compositions of Comparative Example C21 were placed in beakers and heated to 60°C. However, brown gas was generated from the beakers during heating, making it impossible to evaluate the etching rate of the titanium nitride-containing film, the molybdenum film, and the silicon oxide film of Comparative Example C21.
[0159] In Tables 1 through 5, "-" indicates "no evaluation value." Specifically, in Tables 1 through 5, "-" for etching rate indicates that the etching rate was too small to measure, meaning that almost no etching occurred.
[0160] [Table 1]
[0161] From Table 1, it can be seen that i) the composition of Comparative Example C1, which does not contain an oxidizing agent, was substantially unable to etch the titanium nitride-containing film and the molybdenum film, and ii) the composition of Comparative Example C2, which contains HF (hydrofluoric acid) as an oxidizing agent, was substantially unable to etch the titanium nitride-containing film and the molybdenum film and damaged the silicon oxide film. However, the composition of Example 1 was able to etch both the titanium nitride-containing film and the molybdenum film simultaneously at an appropriate etching ratio without substantially damaging the silicon oxide film, thus confirming that it can be usefully used for uniform etching of metal-containing films with diverse compositions.
[0162] On the other hand, it can be confirmed that the composition of Comparative Example C21 does not have sufficient stability to be effectively used for processing metal-containing films with diverse compositions.
[0163] Comparative Examples C3 to C5 and C31 The substances weighed according to the content listed in Table 2 were mixed to produce compositions C3, C5, and C31, respectively. The remainder of each composition is water (deionized water).
[0164] Evaluation Example 2 The pH, molybdenum film etching rate, and silicon oxide film etching rate of the composition of Comparative Example C3 were evaluated using the method described in Evaluation Example 1, and the results are summarized in Table 2. For comparison, the pH, molybdenum film etching rate, and silicon oxide film etching rate of the composition of Example 1 are also listed in Table 2.
[0165] The above tests were repeated using the composition of Comparative Example C31, and the results are summarized in Table 2.
[0166] On the other hand, in order to proceed with the evaluation of each of the compositions of Comparative Examples C4 and C5 in the same manner as in Evaluation Example 1, each of the compositions of Comparative Examples C4 and C5 was placed in a beaker and heated to 60°C. However, gas was generated in the beaker during heating, making it impossible to evaluate the etching rate of the molybdenum film and silicon oxide film of Comparative Examples C4 and C5.
[0167] [Table 2]
[0168] Table 2 confirms that the molybdenum film etching rates of the compositions of Comparative Examples C3 and C31, which do not contain phosphoric acid, are greater than those of the composition of Example 1. This confirms that the composition of Example 1 can etch the molybdenum film at an appropriate etching rate without substantially damaging the silicon oxide film, compared to the compositions of Comparative Examples C3 and C31, and can be usefully used for uniform etching of metal-containing films with diverse compositions.
[0169] On the other hand, it was confirmed that the compositions of Comparative Examples C4 and C5 did not possess sufficient stability to be effectively used for treating metal-containing films with diverse compositions.
[0170] Comparative example C6 The substances weighed according to the content listed in Table 3 as an oxidizing agent, inorganic acid, organic acid, and etching modifier were mixed to prepare the compositions of Comparative Example C6. The remainder of each composition corresponds to water (deionized water).
[0171] Evaluation Example 3 The pH, molybdenum film etching rate, and silicon oxide film etching rate of the composition of Comparative Example C6 were evaluated using the method described in Evaluation Example 1, and the results are summarized in Table 3. For comparison, the pH, molybdenum film etching rate, and silicon oxide film etching rate of the composition of Example 1 are also listed in Table 3.
[0172] [Table 3]
[0173] Table 3 confirms that the molybdenum film etching rate of the composition of Comparative Example C6, which does not contain acetic acid, is greater than that of the composition of Example 1. This confirms that the composition of Example 1 can etch the molybdenum film at an appropriate etching rate compared to the composition of Comparative Example C6, and can be usefully used for uniform etching of metal-containing films with diverse compositions.
[0174] Comparative examples C7~C12 The substances weighed according to the content listed in Table 4 as an oxidizing agent, inorganic acid, organic acid, and etching modifier were mixed to prepare the compositions of Comparative Examples C7 to C12. The remainder of each composition corresponds to water (deionized water).
[0175] Evaluation Example 4 For each of the compositions of Comparative Examples C7 to C12, the pH, molybdenum film etching rate, and silicon oxide film etching rate were evaluated using the method described in Evaluation Example 1, and the results are summarized in Table 4. For comparison, the pH, molybdenum film etching rate, and silicon oxide film etching rate of the composition of Example 1 are also listed in Table 4.
[0176] [Table 4]
[0177] From Table 4, it was confirmed that the molybdenum film etching rates of the composition of Comparative Example C7 that does not contain an etching regulator, the compositions of Comparative Examples C8 to C11 that contain a nitrogen-containing compound containing a hydroxy group as an etching regulator, and the composition of Comparative Example C12 that contains a nitrogen-free compound as an etching regulator are all higher than the molybdenum film etching rate of the composition of Example 1. Thus, it was confirmed that the composition of Example 1 can etch a molybdenum film at an appropriate etching rate, and can be usefully used for the uniform etching of metal-containing films having various compositions, as compared with each of the compositions of Comparative Examples C7 to C12.
[0178] Examples 2 to 4 An oxidizing agent, an inorganic acid, an organic acid, and substances weighed according to the contents described in Table 5 as an etching regulator were mixed to produce the compositions of Examples 2 to 4, respectively. The remainder of each composition corresponds to water (deionized water).
[0179] Evaluation Example 5 For each of the compositions of Examples 2 to 4, the pH, titanium nitride-containing film etching rate, molybdenum film etching rate, R, and silicon oxide film etching rate were evaluated by the method described in Evaluation Example 1, and the results are summarized in Table 5. The pH, titanium nitride-containing film etching rate, molybdenum film etching rate, R, and silicon oxide film etching rate of the composition of Example 1 are also described in Table 5.
[0180]
Table 5
[0181] From Table 5, it was confirmed that the compositions of Examples 2 to 4, like the composition of Example 1, can simultaneously etch a titanium nitride-containing film and a molybdenum film at an appropriate etching ratio without substantially damaging the silicon oxide film, and can be usefully used for the uniform etching of metal-containing films having various compositions.
[0182] Example 5 and Comparative Example C41 The substances weighed according to the content listed in Table 6 were mixed to prepare the compositions of Example 5 and Comparative Example C41, respectively. The remainder of each composition is water (deionized water). The weight-average molecular weight of PEI (polyethyleneimine) used as the etching modifier in Comparative Example C41 was 800 g / mol (n is an integer satisfying the weight-average molecular weight), and the PEI content in Table 6 indicates the solid content of PEI.
[0183] Evaluation Example 6 The compositions of Example 5 and Comparative Example C41 were placed in two separate beakers and heated to 60°C. ¹H NMR analysis was then performed on the compositions in each beaker. The structural changes of compounds A1 and PEI after mixing with high-concentration (70 wt%) phosphoric acid and high-temperature (60°C) heating were evaluated, and the results are summarized in Table 6. Furthermore, the ¹H NMR data of compound A1 after mixing with high-concentration (70 wt%) phosphoric acid and high-temperature (60°C) heating is shown in Figure 11A, and the ¹H NMR data of PEI after mixing with high-concentration (70 wt%) phosphoric acid and high-temperature (60°C) heating is shown in Figure 11B.
[0184] [Table 6]
[0185] Figures 6, 11A, and 11B show that after mixing with high-concentration (70 wt%) phosphoric acid and heating at high temperature (60°C), the structure of compound A1 remained substantially unchanged, while the structure of PEI was modified. This confirms that compound A1 can be used stably even under high-concentration (70 wt%) phosphoric acid and high-temperature (60°C) heating conditions, but PEI cannot be used stably under high-concentration (70 wt%) phosphoric acid and high-temperature (60°C) heating conditions.
[0186] Evaluation Example 7 Two 1cm × 1cm samples of Sample 1 were prepared, each containing a molybdenum film (see "M region" in Figure 12) and a titanium nitride-containing film (see "T region" in Figure 12) placed between two silicon oxide films (see "S1 region" and "S2 region" in Figure 12). Figure 12 shows the TEM (Transmission Electron Microscope) image of Sample 1.
[0187] Next, the compositions of Example 1 (using hydrogen peroxide as the oxidizing agent) and Comparative Example C2 (using HF as the oxidizing agent) were placed in two separate beakers and heated to 60°C. After that, Sample 1 was immersed in each beaker for 10 minutes, then rinsed with deionized water and dried to obtain Sample 1 immersed in each respective composition. The TEM image of Sample 1 immersed in the composition of Example 1 is shown in Figure 13A, and the TEM image of Sample 1 immersed in the composition of Comparative Example C2 is shown in Figure 13b.
[0188] In Figure 13A, a TEM image of Sample 1 immersed in the composition of Example 1, both the S1 and S2 regions, which are silicon oxide films, are observed. However, in Figure 13B, a TEM image of Sample 1 immersed in the composition of Comparative Example C2, the S1 region, which is the silicon oxide film on the left, is not observed, and it was confirmed that a considerable amount of the S2 region, which is the silicon oxide film on the right, has also disappeared.
[0189] This confirms that, unlike the composition of Comparative Example C2, the composition of Example 1 can be usefully used to treat various metal-containing films without substantially damaging the silicon oxide film adjacent to the metal-containing film. [Explanation of Symbols]
