摘要:
A semiconductor device comprises a semiconductor substrate, an interlayer insulating film including a first insulating film formed above the substrate and having a relative dielectric constant smaller than 2.5 and a second insulating film formed to cover the first insulating film and having a relative dielectric constant larger than that of the first insulating film, and a buried wiring formed within the interlayer insulating film. A bottom portion of the second insulating film is buried in the first insulating film at a number of points.
摘要:
A polishing method comprises supplying a polishing liquid to an upper portion of a film to be polished to carry out first polishing, the film being provided on a layer having a groove with a predetermined pattern so as to be filled therewith, after the first polishing, polishing the film to carry out clean polishing while supplying one of distilled water and a cleaning liquid thereto, and after the clean polishing, polishing a residual portion of the film remaining outside of the groove by supplying a polishing liquid to carry out second polishing.

A CMP slurry for metallic film is provided, which includes water, 0.01 to 0.3 wt %, based on a total quantity of the slurry, of polyvinylpyrrolidone having a weight average molecular weight of not less than 20,000, an oxidizing agent, a protective film-forming agent containing a first complexing agent for forming a water-insoluble complex and a second complexing agent for forming a water-soluble complex, and colloidal silica having a primary particle diameter ranging from 5 to 50 nm.
摘要:
Disclosed is a method for manufacturing a semiconductor device comprising forming a hydrophobic interlayer insulating film having a relative dielectric constant of 3.5 or less above a semiconductor substrate, forming a recess in the interlayer insulating film, depositing a conductive material above the interlayer insulating film having the recess to form a conductive layer, selectively removing the conductive material deposited above the interlayer insulating film by polishing to expose a surface of the interlayer insulating film while leaving the conductive material in the recess, and subjecting the surface of the interlayer insulating film having the recess filled with the conductive material to pressure washing using a resin member and an alkaline washing liquid containing an inorganic alkali and exhibiting a pH of more than 9.
摘要:
CMP slurry contains a polishing component to polish a region to be polished, which includes at least one of a sub-region made of insulative material and a sub-region made of conductive material, and a restoring component to restore a scratch caused on the region to be polished. The scratch can be thus reduced during the polishing.
摘要:
Disclosed is a method for manufacturing a semiconductor device, comprising depositing an electrically conductive film on an insulating film formed above a semiconductor substrate and having a recessed portion, polishing the surface of the electrically conductive film constituting a processing surface with an alkaline slurry on a polishing cloth to expose the surface of the insulating film to the outside while leaving the electrically conductive film selectively within the recessed portion of the insulating film, treating the processing surface, in which the surface of the insulating film is exposed to the outside by the polishing treatment with the alkaline slurry, with a deionized water and, then, with an acidic washing solution so as to render the processing surface acidic, and transferring the semiconductor substrate from the position on the polishing cloth into a washing unit while keeping the processing surface acidic.
