摘要:
An aqueous-based composition and process for removing hardened photoresist and/or bottom anti-reflective coating (BARC) material from a microelectronic device having same thereon. The aqueous-based composition includes at least one chaotropic solute, at least one alkaline base, and deionized water. The composition achieves high-efficiency removal of hardened photoresist and/or BARC material in the manufacture of integrated circuitry without adverse effect to metal species on the substrate, such as copper, and without damage to low-k dielectric materials employed in the microelectronic device architecture.

Disclosed herein is a composition and method for semiconductor processing. In one embodiment, a wet-cleaning composition for removal of photoresist is provided. The composition comprises a strong base; an oxidant; and a polar solvent. In another embodiment, a method for removing photoresist is provided. The method comprises the steps of applying a wet-cleaning composition comprising about 0.1 to about 30 weight percent strong base; about one to about 30 weight percent oxidant; about 20 to about 95 weight percent polar solvent; and removing the photoresist.

摘要:
Chemical formulations and methods for removing unwanted material, such as unexposed photoresist, metal oxides, CMP residue, and the like, from semiconductor wafers or other substrates. The formulations utilize a supercritical fluid-based cleaning composition, which may further include (I) co-solvent(s), (II) surfactant(s), (III) chelating agent(s), and/or (IV) chemical reactant(s).

摘要:
A method and composition for removing hardened photoresist, post-etch photoresist, and/or bottom anti-reflective coating from a microelectronic device is described. The composition may include a dense fluid, e.g., a supercritical fluid, and a dense fluid concentrate including a co-solvent, optionally a fluoride source, and optionally an acid. The dense fluid compositions substantially remove the contaminating residue and/or layers from the microelectronic device prior to subsequent processing, thus improving the morphology, performance, reliability and yield of the microelectronic device.
