    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 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 method for processing semiconductor wafers is disclosed. A solution is applied to a semiconductor wafer to prevent dendrites and electrolytic reactions at the surface of metal interconnects. The solution can be applied during a CMP process or during a post CMP cleaning process. The solution may include a surfactant and a corrosion inhibitor. In one embodiment, the concentration of the surfactant in the solution is less than approximately one percent by weight and the concentration of the corrosion inhibitor in the solution is less than approximately one percent by weight. The solution may also include a solvent and a cosolvent. In an alternate embodiment, the solution includes a solvent and a cosolvent without the surfactant and corrosion inhibitor. In one embodiment, the CMP process and post CMP cleaning process can be performed in the presence of light having a wavelength of less than approximately one micron.
