Description

Slurry, multi-liquid slurry, and polishing method

[0001] This disclosure relates to slurry, multi-liquid slurry, polishing methods, etc.

[0002] In the field of semiconductor manufacturing, as ultra-large-scale integrated circuits (ULSIs) become more powerful, it is becoming increasingly difficult to achieve both high integration and high speed through miniaturization techniques that are merely extensions of conventional technologies. Therefore, technologies are being developed that allow for both miniaturization of semiconductor elements and high integration in the vertical direction (i.e., technologies for multi-layer wiring).

[0003] One of the most important technologies in the process of manufacturing devices with multilayer wiring is CMP (chemical mechanical polishing) technology. CMP technology is a technique for planarizing the surface of a substrate obtained by forming a thin film on a substrate using chemical vapor deposition (CVD), etc. For example, planarization by CMP is essential to ensure the depth of focus in lithography. If there are irregularities on the surface of the substrate, problems such as the inability to focus during the exposure process or the inability to sufficiently form fine wiring structures will occur. Furthermore, CMP technology is used in the device manufacturing process to form plasma oxide films (BPSG, HDP-SiO 2 This process is also applicable to steps such as forming element isolation (inter-element isolation; STI: shallow trench isolation) regions by polishing p-TEOS, etc.; forming ILD films (interlayer insulating films; insulating films that electrically insulate metal components (wiring, etc.) from each other in the same layer); and planarizing plugs (e.g., Al-Cu plugs) after embedding a silicon oxide-containing film in metal wiring.

[0004] CMP is typically performed using a device that can supply polishing fluid onto a polishing pad. The surface of the substrate is polished by pressing the substrate against the polishing pad while supplying polishing fluid between the substrate surface and the polishing pad. Thus, in CMP technology, the polishing fluid is one of the key technologies, and various polishing fluids have been developed to obtain high-performance polishing fluids (see, for example, Patent Document 1 below).

A polishing slurry was prepared by mixing this additive solution with an aqueous dispersion of colloidal silica (abrasive grains) in a mass ratio of 95:5. Based on the total mass of the polishing slurry, the respective contents of amino acid component A and organic amine compound B were 0.950% by mass, and the abrasive grain content was 1.000% by mass.

[0067] (Example B21) A polishing slurry was prepared by mixing glycine, bis(aminomethyl)norbornane, colloidal silica (abrasive grains), and water. Based on the total mass of the polishing slurry, the content of glycine and bis(aminomethyl)norbornane was 0.100% by mass, and the content of abrasive grains was 1.000% by mass.

[0068] (Comparative Example B1) A polishing slurry was prepared by mixing glycine with an aqueous dispersion of colloidal silica (abrasive grains). Based on the total mass of the polishing slurry, the glycine content was 0.950% by mass and the abrasive grain content was 1.000% by mass.

[0069] <Measurement of Abrasive Grain Size> The average particle size (D50) of abrasive grains in the polishing slurries of Examples B1 to B21 and Comparative Example B1 was measured under the following conditions. The average particle size of abrasive grains in each of Examples B1 to B21 and Comparative Example B1 was 70 nm. Measurement temperature: 25°C Measurement device: Wyatt Technology Co., Ltd., product name "Mobius" Measurement method: A laser beam was irradiated onto an appropriate amount of polishing slurry, and the particle size distribution was obtained by calculating the particle size information obtained based on the scattered light. The value of D50 obtained based on this particle size distribution was obtained as the average particle size.

[0070] <Zeta Potential Measurement> Using the product name "DT-1202" manufactured by Dispersion Technology, the zeta potential of the abrasive grains in the polishing slurries of Examples B1 to B21 and Comparative Example B1 was measured three times at 25°C. The average value of the displayed zeta potential was obtained as the zeta potential measurement result. In each of Examples B1 to B21 and Comparative Example B1, the zeta potential of the abrasive grains was negative.

[0071] <pH Measurement> The pH of each polishing slurry in the above-described examples and comparative examples was measured under the following conditions. The results are shown in Tables 1 to 4. Measurement temperature: 25°C Measuring device: Model (D-71), manufactured by Horiba, Ltd. Measurement method: A pH meter was calibrated at three points using phthalate pH standard solution (pH: 4.01), neutral phosphate pH standard solution (pH: 6.86), and borate pH standard solution (pH: 9.18) as pH standard solutions. After that, the electrode of the pH meter was placed in the polishing slurry, and the pH was measured using the above-described measuring device after it had stabilized for more than two minutes.

[0072] <Evaluation of polishing speed> Blanket wafer A with a diameter of 300 mm and a polysilicon film (p-Si) on its surface was prepared. A silicon wafer (single crystal silicon) with a diameter of 300 mm was prepared as blanket wafer B.

[0073] Blanket wafer A was polished using a commercially available polishing solution containing silica abrasive particles (pH = approximately 10) to remove the native oxide film. After that, blanket wafer A was polished using the polishing slurries of the above-mentioned examples and comparative examples under the following polishing conditions. Blanket wafer B was polished using the polishing slurries of Examples B1, B2, and B4-B16 under the following polishing conditions. Polishing apparatus: FREX 300X (manufactured by Ebara Corporation) Slurry flow rate: 250 mL / min Polishing pad: Polyurethane pad (manufactured by DuPont, model number: IK4250H) Polishing pressure: 14.7 kPa (2 psi) Plate rotation speed: 90 min -1 (Blanket wafer A), 120 min -1(Blanket wafer B) Polishing time: 30 seconds (Blanket wafer A: does not include time for removing the native oxide film), 90 seconds (Blanket wafer B) Cleaning: After polishing, the blanket wafers were washed with water and then dried with a spin dryer.

[0074] Using an optical interferometry film thickness measuring device (Nova Ltd., product name: nova i500), the film thickness change at multiple measurement points in the inner region of the polysilicon film on blanket wafer A was measured, excluding the outermost 5 mm region. The polishing rate at each measurement point was obtained. The measurement points were located in the diametrical direction passing through the center point of the inner region, at -145 mm, -140 mm, -135 mm, ... (5 mm intervals) ..., -10 mm and -5 mm from the center point, the center point itself, and at +5 mm, +10 mm, ... (5 mm intervals) ..., +135 mm, +140 mm and +145 mm from the center point. The average value of the polishing rate at each measurement point was obtained as the polysilicon polishing rate (unit: Å / min). The results are shown in Tables 1 to 4.

[0075] The polishing rate of single-crystal silicon was determined by weighing. Specifically, after determining the mass difference of blanket wafer B before and after polishing, the polishing rate of single-crystal silicon (unit: Å / min) was obtained based on the density of the single-crystal silicon and the area of ​​the polished surface of blanket wafer B. The results are shown in Table 4.
