摘要:
A corrosion-inhibiting cleaning composition for semiconductor wafer processing includes hydrogen peroxide at a concentration in a range from about 0.5 wt % to about 5 wt %, sulfuric acid at a concentration in a range from about 1 wt % to about 10 wt %, hydrogen fluoride at a concentration in a range from about 0.01 wt % to about 1 wt %; an azole at a concentration in a range from about 0.1 wt % to about 5 wt % and deionized water. The azole operates to inhibit corrosion of a metal layer being cleaned by chelating with a surface of the metal layer during a cleaning process.

Provided herein are methods for using corrosion-inhibiting cleaning compositions for semiconductor wafer processing that include an aqueous admixture of at least water, a surfactant and a corrosion-inhibiting compound selected from a group consisting of amino phosphonates, polyamines and polycarboxylic acids. The quantity of the corrosion-inhibiting compound in the admixture is preferably in a range from about 0.0001 wt % to about 0.1 wt % and the quantity of the surfactant is preferably in a range from about 0.001 wt % to about 1.0 wt %. The aqueous admixture may also include sulfuric acid and a fluoride, which act as oxide etchants, and a peroxide, which acts as a metal etchant.

An instantaneous pressure reducing heating and drying apparatus for an object, such as a wafer, includes a pressure reducing chamber; a vacuum pump for reducing a pressure in the pressure reducing chamber to below atmospheric pressure; a drying chamber installed within the pressure reducing chamber for drying the object that is loaded in the drying chamber; a pressure regulating valve installed in a wall of the drying chamber, wherein when the pressure regulating valve is opened a pressure in the drying chamber is instantaneously reduced to the pressure of the pressure reducing chamber; and a heating means for heating the drying chamber. In operation, the vacuum pump reduces a pressure of the pressure reducing chamber to below atmospheric pressure, and the pressure regulating valve installed in a wall of the drying chamber opens thereby instantaneously reducing the pressure the drying chamber to the reduced pressure of the pressure reducing chamber.

In a cleaning solution and a method of cleaning a semiconductor substrate, the cleaning solution includes about 1 to about 10 percent by weight of sulfuric acid, about 0.5 to about 5 percent by weight of aqueous hydrogen peroxide solution, and about 85 to about 98.5 percent by weight of hydrogen fluoric acid solution. Various polymers attached to a metal wiring formed on a substrate are removed by immersing the substrate into the cleaning solution. The substrate is rinsed to remove the cleaning solution remaining on the substrate. Thus, the polymers can be completely removed without damage to the metal wiring and an underlying oxide film.

摘要:
A wafer having a dielectric layer and an electrode partially protruding from the top surface of the dielectric layer is provided. The dielectric layer is etched with a chemical solution such as LAL. Prior to etching, the protruding portion of the electrode is removed or reduced to prevent any bubbles included in the chemical solution from adhering to the electrode. Thus, the chemical solution can etch the dielectric layers without being blocked by any bubbles included in a chemical solution.
