摘要:
A method is provided for achieving an enhanced finish on a sputter target surface that results in good film uniformity, low particle counts, and little to no burn-in time. The method involves chemically etching the surface of the sputter target by immersing the surface one or more times in an etching solution, with intermediate rinsing steps. The result is a surface substantially free of mechanical deformation that exhibits a surface similar to a sputtered target with a surface roughness of 10-30 µin.
摘要:
The present invention provides a composition for chemical-mechanical polishing which comprises at least one abrasive particle having a surface at least partially coated by a activator. The activator comprises a metal other than a metal of Group 4(b), Group 5(b) or Group 6(b). The composition further comprises at least one oxidizing agent. The composition is believed to be effective by virtue of the interaction between the activator coated on the surface of the abrasive particles and the oxidizing agent, at the activator surface, to form free radicals. The invention further provides a method that employs the composition in the polishing of a feature or layer, such as a metal film, on a substrate surface. The invention additionally provides a substrate produced this method.
摘要:
Transmissivity is restored to a gallium stained substrate by directing an electron beam to the substrate in the presence of an etching gas. For higher concentration of implanted gallium, the transparency can be substantially restored without reducing the thickness of the substrate. For lower doses of implanted gallium, the transmission is restored to 100% although the thickness of the substrate is reduced. The invention is suitable for use in the repair of photolitography masks.
摘要:
The present invention provides methods of wet processing electronic components having surfaces containing copper. In the methods of the present invention, copper containing electronic components are contacted with a copper oxidizing solution containing an oxidizing agent, and subsequently contacted with an etching solution. The methods of the present invention are particularly useful for cleaning copper containing components.
摘要:
A granular abrasive substance for the surface treatment of products in general, which comprises a mixture of polyester and abrasive in powder form with a hardening catalyst. The particularity of the invention is constituted by the fact that it comprises, in the mixture, aluminum in the metallic state and its salts, and a pH regulator.
摘要:
An aqueous slurry is provided which is useful for the chemical-mechanical polishing of substrates containing titanium comprising: water, submicron abrasive particles, an oxidizing agent, and a combination of complexing agents comprising a phthalate compound and a compound which is a di- or tri-carboxylic acid with at least one hydroxyl group in an alpha position relative to one of the carboxyl groups.
