[0122] 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.
[0123] 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 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, acids, and etching modifiers as described herein, for a detailed description thereof, refer to the foregoing.
[0124] According to one embodiment, 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.

[0126] When the metal-containing film 20A comes into contact with the composition 30, the interaction of the oxidizing agent, 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 having 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.
[0127] Figures 3 and 4 are diagrams that briefly illustrate other embodiments of the method for processing the metal-containing film.
[0128] 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 the description in Figure 1A.
[0129] The additional substance 40 in Figure 3 may be 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.
[0130] 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.

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, acids, and etching modifiers as described herein, for a detailed description thereof, refer to the provisions of this specification.
[0134] 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, 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 more 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 having 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. Moreover, the additional material 40, which includes at least one of an insulating material and a semiconductor material, is not substantially damaged by the composition 30.

[0145] A detailed explanation of the conductive metal contained in the conductive layer can be found in the explanation of the conductive metal contained in the second region of the metal-containing film as described herein.
[0146] According to one embodiment, the conductive layer may include tungsten (W), molybdenum (Mo), ruthenium (Ru), or any combination thereof.
[0147] 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.
[0148] When the barrier layer and conductive layer come into contact with a composition as described herein, the interaction of the oxidizing agent, acid, and etching modifier contained in the composition controls the high reactivity of the conductive metal contained in the conductive layer. This allows for appropriate control of the etching rate of the conductive layer, while a portion of the barrier layer and a portion of the conductive layer are etched, thereby forming a gate electrode with a substantially flat surface (for example, with virtually no step between the barrier layer and the conductive layer). Moreover, at least one of the channels and gate insulating films located adjacent to the gate electrode is substantially undamaged 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.
[0149] The aforementioned electronic element is also a semiconductor memory element.
[0150] For example, the electronic elements may include volatile memory elements such as DRAM (Dynamic Random Access Memory) elements or SRAM (static random access memory) elements, resistive random access memory (ReRAM) elements, electrically erasable programmable read-only memory (EEPROM) elements, flash memory (which can also be considered a subset of EEPROM) elements, ferroelectric random access memory (FRAM®) elements and magnetoresistive random access memory (MRAM) elements, and non-volatile memory elements such as other semiconductor elements capable of storing information.
[0151] According to one embodiment, the electronic element is also a DRAM element.
[0152] The manufacturing method of the electronic element will be described in more detail below with reference to Figures 5, 6A, 6B, 7, 8, and 9.
[0153] Figure 5 is a schematic plan view of an electronic element 3000 according to an exemplary embodiment, and Figure 6 is a perspective view of the electronic element 3000 shown in Figure 5. The electronic element 3000 in Figure 5 is also a DRAM element.
[0154] Referring to Figures 5, 6A, and 6B, the electronic element 3000 includes a plurality of unit elements 3100 arranged in an array. Here, each unit element 3100 has a 1T1C structure consisting of one transistor and one capacitor.
[0155] The electronic element 3000 includes a transistor structure 100 and a plurality of capacitors 3500 provided to the transistor structure 100. The transistor structure 100 may also be a vertical channel array transistor structure (see Figure 6A) including channels arranged perpendicular to the substrate, or a channel array transistor structure (see Figure 6B) including channels arranged and stacked horizontally to the substrate.
[0156] 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. A transistor is positioned at the point where the multiple gate electrodes 150 and the multiple bit lines 160 intersect.
[0157] Figures 7 to 9 are diagrams that briefly illustrate part of the manufacturing process of the transistor structure 100 shown in Figure 6A.
[0158] The transistor structure 100 in Figure 7 includes a substrate 110 and a plurality of channels 140 arranged in an array on the substrate 110. Here, the plurality of channels 140 may be arranged in a two-dimensional array on the plane of the substrate 110 (for example, the xy-plane).
[0159] The substrate 110 may, for example, contain silicon (Si). Specifically, the substrate 110 may consist of a silicon substrate doped with N-type impurities. However, this is merely illustrative, and the substrate 110 may also contain, for example, Group IV semiconductor materials such as germanium (Ge), silicon germanium (SiGe), and silicon carbide (SiC), Group III-V semiconductor materials such as gallium arsenide (GaAs), indium arsenide (InAs), and indium phosphide (InP), oxide semiconductors, nitride semiconductors, and oxynitride semiconductors.
[0160] Each of the multiple channels 140 may be provided extending vertically from the substrate 110. Here, each channel 140 may be provided projecting vertically from the upper surface of the substrate 110. 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.
[0161] 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. 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. 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. 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. 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. 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. 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 includes an oxidizing agent, an acid, and an etching modifier as described herein, for a detailed description thereof, refer to the foregoing. 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. 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. When the barrier layer 151 and the conductive layer 152 come into contact with the composition 30, the interaction of the oxidizing agent, acid, and etching modifier contained in the composition 30 controls the high reactivity of the conductive metal contained in the conductive layer 152. This appropriately controls the etching rate of the conductive layer 152, while etching a portion of the barrier layer 151 and a portion of the conductive layer 152, thereby forming a gate electrode 150 having a substantially flat upper surface (for example, with virtually no step difference between the barrier layer 151 and the conductive layer 152), as shown in Figure 8. Moreover, the channel 140, gate insulating film 130, and embedded insulating layer 180, which are located adjacent to the gate electrode 150, are not substantially damaged by the composition 30. This makes it possible to fabricate a high-quality electronic device 3000, including a gate electrode 150 with a precise pattern, without damaging the regions adjacent to the gate electrode 150, such as the channel 140, gate insulating film 130, and embedded insulating layer 180. 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. 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. 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. 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. 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 device using subsequent steps 120. The subsequent steps may include a variety of known steps for fabricating an electronic device, such as a capacitor formation step.
[0162] Examples 1-4, Comparative Example C1 and Comparative Example C2 The substances weighed according to the content listed in Table 1 were mixed to prepare the compositions of Examples 1-4, Comparative Example C1, and Comparative Example C2, respectively. The remainder of each composition is water (deionized water). The number average molecular weight (M) of polymer P1 is... nThe ratio is 432, and the content of polymer P1 listed in Table 1 refers to the solid content of polymer P1. The compositions of Examples 1-3 and Comparative Example C2 contain one compound as an etching modifier, the composition of Example 4 contains two compounds as etching modifiers, the composition of Comparative Example C1 does not contain an etching modifier, and the composition of Comparative Example C2 does not contain an oxidizing agent.
[0163] 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 rates of the titanium nitride-containing film (also called the "titanium nitride-containing film etching rate"), the molybdenum film (also called the "molybdenum film etching rate"), and the silicon oxide film (also called the "silicon oxide film etching rate") were measured. The unit of each measured etching rate is "Å / min". Next, the etching rate of the molybdenum film, "A," was divided by the etching rate of the titanium nitride-containing film, "B," to evaluate the ratio of the molybdenum film etching rate to the titanium nitride-containing film etching rate, "A / B."
[0164] The above tests were repeated using the compositions of Examples 2-4, Comparative Example C1, and Comparative Example C2. The molybdenum film etching rates of each composition of Examples 1-4 and Comparative Example C2 were summarized in Table 1 as relative values (%) to the molybdenum film etching rate of the composition of Comparative Example C1. The A / B ratios of each composition of Examples 1-4 and Comparative Example C2 were also summarized in Table 1 as relative values (%) to the A / B ratio of the composition of Comparative Example C1. The pH of each composition of Examples 1-4, Comparative Example C1, and Comparative Example C2, as evaluated with a pH meter, are also summarized in Table 1.
[0165] [Table 1]
[0166] Table 1 shows that when a molybdenum film and a titanium nitride-containing film are etched simultaneously, i) the composition of Comparative Example C1, which does not contain an etching modifier, excessively etches the molybdenum film compared to the compositions of Examples 1 to 4, and ii) the composition of Comparative Example C2, which does not contain an oxidizing agent, does not etch the molybdenum film. On the other hand, the compositions of Examples 1 to 4 can etch both the titanium nitride-containing film and the molybdenum film simultaneously with an appropriate etching ratio without substantially damaging the silicon oxide film, and can be usefully used for uniform etching of metal-containing films with diverse compositions.
[0167] Example 5 and Comparative Example C3 The compositions of Example 5 and Comparative Example C3 were prepared by mixing substances weighed according to the content listed in Table 2 as an oxidizing agent, acid, and etching modifier. The compositions of Example 5 and Comparative Example C3 contain two compounds as acids.
[0168] Evaluation Example 2 For the compositions of Example 5 and Comparative Example C3, the pH and the molybdenum film etching rate were evaluated by the method described in Evaluation Example 1, and the results are summarized in Table 2. In Table 2, the molybdenum film etching rate of the composition of Example 5 was summarized as the relative value (%) with respect to the molybdenum film etching rate of the composition of Comparative Example C3.
[0169]
Table 2
[0170] From Table 2, it can be confirmed that the composition of Comparative Example C3 without an etching regulator excessively etches the molybdenum film, while the composition of Example 5 does not excessively etch the molybdenum film without substantially damaging the silicon oxide film, and can simultaneously etch both the titanium nitride-containing film and the molybdenum film at an appropriate etching ratio, and can be usefully used for uniform etching of metal-containing films having various compositions.
