摘要:
A novel copper damascene method for making metal interconnections on semiconductor integrated circuits was achieved. This method avoids overpolishing into a low-k dielectric fluorine-doped glass which would cause copper-flake defects resulting in intralevel electrical shorts. The method utilizes a stacked hard-mask layer on the doped glass layer consisting of a first polish-stop layer, a sacrificial insulating layer and an upper second polish-stop layer. After etching trenches in the stacked hard-mask layer and the doped glass, a copper layer is deposited to fill the trenches and is polished back to the second polish-stop layer. The high polish-back selectivity of the copper to the second polish-stop layer results in improved polish-back uniformity across the substrate. The relatively thin second polish-stop layer can then be polished back and partially into the sacrificial layer without overpolishing and damaging the underlying first polish-stop layer. The sacrificial layer is then removed to complete a level of metal interconnections. The method can be repeated to complete the multilevel of interconnections.

A process for manufacturing damascene wiring in integrated circuits is described. Trenches in the top most layer are first over-filled with a soft metal (such as copper) and then a relatively thin layer of a hard material such as tantalum, tantalum nitride, titanium, titanium nitride etc is deposited on the copper surface Under a first set of control conditions CMP is then applied for just long enough to selectively remove this hard material layer from peaks in the copper surface while leaving it intact in the valleys. The control conditions for CMP are then adjusted so that CMP can proceed with material at the peaks being removed at a significantly faster rate than in the valleys. Thus, when the point is reached that all copper outside the trenches has been removed, the trenches are found to be just filled with a flat layer that has no dishing.

摘要:
A method for the cleaning of wafers typically during a chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) process. The method includes polishing a material layer on a wafer in sequential polishing steps, rinsing the wafer using a novel surfactant composition solution after at least one of the polishing steps and rinsing of the wafer using deionized water, respectively. The surfactant composition solution imparts a generally hydrophilic character to a hydrophobic material layer such as a high-k dielectric layer on the wafer. Consequently, the layer is rendered amenable to cleaning by deionized water, thereby significantly enhancing the removal of particles from the layer and reducing the number of defects related to the CMP process.
摘要:
A polishing assembly for use in a linear chemical mechanical polishing apparatus and a method for forming such assembly are described. In the polishing assembly, a plurality of polishing pads are adhesively joined to a top surface of a continuous belt. Each of the plurality of polishing pads is provided with a leading edge which has a lower lip and a trailing edge which has an upper lip. The upper lip of the trailing edge of a first polishing pad covers the lower lip of the leading edge of a second polishing pad when the pads are adhesively bonded to the continuous belt such that the first pad leads the second pad in the direction of rotation for the continuous belt such that the upper lip protects the lower lip to prevent delamination of the pads. The tight seam made possible by the present invention novel tapered joint further prevents water absorption or penetration and therefore prolongs the lifetime of the polishing pads.

An apparatus and a method for chemical mechanical polishing a metal on a semiconductor wafer capable of achieving improved pad life are disclosed. In the apparatus, in addition to a first spray nozzle used for spraying a slurry solution onto the top of a polishing pad, a second spray nozzle is provided for mounting juxtaposed to a conditioning pad for dispensing a cleaning solution capable of dissolving polishing debris formed on the polishing pad surface. The apparatus may further include at least one cleaning solution reservoir for storing and delivering a cleaning solution to the second spray nozzle. The method can be advantageously carried out in two-steps during which a first cleaning solution is sprayed onto the pad surface for dissolving the polishing debris, and then a second cleaning solution is sprayed onto the pad surface for removing or flushing away the dissolved debris. In one illustration for the removal of oxides of copper, an acid-containing or ammonium hydroxide-containing cleaning solution is used advantageously to dissolve the oxides, and then deionized water is used to remove the dissolved debris from the pad surface.
