    摘要: A method and associated composition for chemical mechanical planarization of a chalcogenide-containing substrate (e.g., germanium/antimony/tellurium (GST)-containing substrate) are described. The composition and method afford low defect levels (e.g., scratches incurred during polishing) as well as low dishing and local erosion levels on the chalcogenide-containing substrate during CMP processing.

    摘要: A composition and an associated method for chemical mechanical planarization (or other polishing) are described. The composition includes a surface-modified abrasive modified with at least one stabilizer and at least one catalyst differing from the at least one stabilizer. The composition can further include a medium containing the abrasive and an oxidizing agent (e.g., hydrogen peroxide), wherein the at least one catalyst is adapted to catalyze oxidation of a substrate by the oxidizing agent. Preferably, the abrasive is alumina, titania, zirconia, germania, silica, ceria and/or mixtures thereof, the stabilizer is B, W and/or Al, and the catalyst is Cu, Fe, Mn, Ti, W and/or V. Both the stabilizer and the catalyst are immobilized on the abrasive surface. The method includes applying the composition to a substrate to be polished, such as substrates containing W, Cu and/or dielectrics.

    摘要: A composition and associated method for the chemical mechanical planarization (CMP) of metal substrates on semiconductor wafers are described. The composition contains a nonionic fluorocarbon surfactant and a per-type oxidizer (e.g., hydrogen peroxide). The composition and associated method are effective in controlling removal rates of low-k films during copper CMP and provide for tune-ability in removal rates of low-k films in relation to removal rates of copper, tantalum, and oxide films.

    摘要: A CMP composition having: a fluid comprising water and at least one oxidizing compound that produces free radicals when contacted with an activator; and a plurality of particles having a surface and comprising at least one activator selected from ions or compounds of Cu, Fe, Mn, Ti, or mixtures thereof disposed on said surface, wherein at least a portion of said surface comprises a stabilizer. Preferred activators are selected from inorganic oxygen-containing compounds of B, W, Al, and P, for example borate, tungstate, aluminate, and phosphate. The activators are preferably ions of Cu or Fe. Surprisingly, as little as 0.2 ppm and 12 ppm of activator is useful, if the activator-containing particles are suspended in the fluid as a slurry. Advantageously, certain organic acids, and especially dihydroxy enolic acids, are included in an amount less than about 4000 ppm. Advantageously, activator is coated onto abrasive particles after the particles have been coated with stabilizer.
