As above-mentioned mineral acid, can enumerate sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid, nitric acid, phosphoric acid etc.As above-mentioned organic acid, can enumerate formic acid, acetate, oxalic acid, toxilic acid, phenylformic acid, oxyacetic acid etc.As wherein particularly preferred acid, from the viewpoint of the stability of etching speed and the steady dissolution of copper (the high situation of ability that cuprous ion and cupric ion are kept etching solution), preferred hydrochloric acid.
As the concentration of acid, preferred 7~180g/L, more preferably 18~110g/L, further preferred 18~80g/L.As long as the concentration of acid is more than the 7g/L, just can obtains stable etching speed, and can prevent the decline of the steady dissolution of copper.On the other hand, as long as the concentration of acid just can prevent that etching solution from corroding between resist and the copper, and can prevent reoxidizing of copper surface below 180g/L.
(only having nitrogen-atoms) as being present in the heteroatomic azoles of intra-annular
In order to suppress undercutting, in etching solution of the present invention, add and only have nitrogen-atoms as being present in the heteroatomic azoles of intra-annular (below, also abbreviate " azoles " as).
It is also indeterminate that azoles suppresses the mechanism of undercutting, and consideration is following cause: combine by the cuprous ion near the liquid the top of conductive pattern and the side, form the protection epithelium in the side from the top of conductive pattern, thus the inhibition undercutting.
As the kind of the azoles that uses, can be the monocyclic compound, also can be the compound that cyclic condensation forms.Particularly preferred glyoxaline compound, triazole class compounds and tetrazole compound also can be used in combination more than 2 kinds of these azoles.
Example as above-mentioned glyoxaline compound, can exemplify out the imidazoles of imidazoles, glyoxal ethyline, 2-undecyl-4-methylimidazole, 2-phenylimidazole etc., the benzimidazoles of benzoglyoxaline, 2-tolimidazole, 2-undecyl benzoglyoxaline, 2-Phenylbenzimidazole, 2-mercaptobenzimidazole etc. etc.

In above-mentioned illustrative azoles, preferred especially tetrazole compound.This is because not only suppress the performance height of undercutting, and can form pattern brightly.
And then, in tetrazole compound, preferred 1H-tetrazolium, 5-phenyl-1H-tetrazolium, 5-amino-1H-tetrazolium, 5,5 '-two-1H-tetrazolium, and their ammonium salt or metal-salt etc., preferred especially 1H-tetrazolium, 5-amino-1H-tetrazolium, and their ammonium salt or metal-salt.Infer these tetrazole compounds and can approach and be formed uniformly the protection epithelium in the side from the top of conductive pattern.
5-amino-1H-tetrazolium and ammonium salt or metal-salt, especially easily by hydrogen peroxide decomposition, when cuprous ion is regenerated as cupric ion, under the situation that excessive hydrogen peroxide exists, concentration through the time change the tendency that becomes greatly arranged.Therefore, by adding the effect of keeping concentration that aromatics described later obtains, compare with the situation of not adding, effect is remarkable, thereby is suitable for the present invention.
As the concentration of azoles, preferred 0.1~50g/L, more preferably 0.1~15g/L, further preferred 0.2~10g/L.As long as the concentration of azoles just can suppress undercutting definitely more than 0.1g/L.On the other hand, the concentration of azoles is 50g/L when following, can prevent the decline of etching speed, and etching should etched part definitely, thereby can prevent the generation of short circuit (defective insulation).
(being selected from least a aromatics in phenols and the aromatic amine)
In order to prevent the decomposition of the azoles due to the oxygenant such as hydrogen peroxide, in etching solution of the present invention, add at least a aromatics that is selected from phenols and the aromatic amine (below, also abbreviate " aromatics " as).Do not comprise azoles in above-mentioned " aromatics ".
The mechanism of the decomposition of the azoles due to the agent of above-mentioned aromatics inhibited oxidation is also indeterminate, but consider it is following cause: above-mentioned aromatics has the effect of seizure material with strong oxidation that generate, that be called as hydroxyl radical free radical when adding oxygenant such as hydrogen peroxide.Azoles is decomposed by this hydroxyl radical free radical, but by the good above-mentioned aromatics of interpolation in advance, and hydroxyl radical free radical is caught by aromatics, thereby, even add oxygenant, also can suppress azoles and be decomposed by hydroxyl radical free radical.
In the above-mentioned aromatics, particularly phenols suppresses the effect excellence of the decomposition of azoles, thereby preferred.Below, the particular instantiation aromatics.
Concrete example as phenols, but illustration has: 2,4,6-three (dimethylamino methyl) phenol (monobasic), sulfocarbolic acid or its salt (monobasic), cresol sulfonic acid or its salt (monobasic), Whitfield's ointment or its salt (monobasic), lignin sulfonic acid or its salt (monobasic), phenol (monobasic), catechol (binary, hydroxyl is asymmetric), xylenol (monobasic), gallic acid (ternary), phenylphenol (monobasic), Phloroglucinol monomethyl ether (ternary), pyrogallol (ternary), Resorcinol (binary, the hydroxyl symmetry), 2,6-two-tertiary butyl-p-cresol (monobasic), 2,6-two-tertiary butyl-4-ethylphenol (monobasic), 3-tertiary butyl-4-hydroxy phenylmethylether (monobasic) etc.In above-mentioned, first number is corresponding to the number of hydroxyl.
In these phenols, the material of comparing monobasic with the material more than the binary produces effect especially.In addition, under the situation (situation) of binary, asymmetricly have the phenol of hydroxyl, have than symmetry ground and have the higher tendency of phenol effect of hydroxyl for the center of aromatic nucleus with phenol of 2 hydroxyls.And then the effect of the phenol that solvability is high in water is higher.
In each above-mentioned phenols, because the effect height of the decomposition of the azoles due to the inhibited oxidation agent, and preferred especially sulfocarbolic acid or its salt, cresol sulfonic acid or its salt, Whitfield's ointment or its salt, lignin sulfonic acid or its salt, 2,4,6-three (dimethylamino methyl) phenol etc.
As the concrete example of aromatic amine, can naphthylene diamine, aniline, ALPHA-NAPHTHYL AMINE, monomethylaniline, xylidine, phenyl ethyl amine, benzylamine, dibenzylamine, phenylenediamine, trichloroaniline, tolylene diamine, diphenylamine, triphenylamine, adjacent nitro-p-Chlorobenzoic acid amide, Tolylamine etc. be shown example.
In these aromatic amines, because the effect height of decomposition of the azoles due to the inhibited oxidation agent, and preferred especially naphthylene diamine, aniline, ALPHA-NAPHTHYL AMINE etc.
As the concentration of above-mentioned aromatics, preferred 0.01~20g/L, more preferably 0.1~10g/L.So long as in this scope, just can prevent the decomposition of azoles definitely, and can prevent the reduction of etching speed.
(hydrogen peroxide)
If carry out the etching of copper with etching solution of the present invention, then in the etching progression, cupric ion, metallic copper change and the cuprous ion increase of generation in etching solution.Therefore, can add hydrogen peroxide as the oxygenant that is used for this cuprous ion oxidation is regenerated as cupric ion.
Hydrogen peroxide can add in the etching solution in advance, also can add etched midway.Perhaps, also can use the etching solution that is added with hydrogen peroxide in advance, at the etched hydrogen peroxide that further adds midway.Usually, more in etched situation of adding hydrogen peroxide midway.
The preferred addition of hydrogen peroxide, amount according to the cuprous ion that produces changes, thereby can not stipulate entirely with numerical value, for example, if the concentration range in etching solution is the scope of 0.01~20g/L, then can easily the cuprous ion that produces be regenerated as cupric ion.The addition of hydrogen peroxide changes according to the amount of cuprous ion and to get final product as mentioned above, for example, consider the ratio etc. of the amount of the amount of etching solution and etch target thing, and to carry out time etc. be benchmark with etched, so long as those skilled in the art just can suitably adjust.Certainly, can measure the variation of cuprous ion concentration on one side, cuprous ion concentration increased when add hydrogen peroxide on one side, perhaps, also can measure cuprous ion concentration in advance and what kind of takes place change, add hydrogen peroxide as benchmark along with etched.
Cuprous ion does not work as the etched oxygenant of copper, by there being small quantity, just has the function that auxiliary described azoles suppresses the effect of undercutting.
The preferred 5g/L of the concentration range of cuprous ion is following, more preferably 2.5g/L following, more preferably 2.0g/L following, further more preferably below the 0.7g/L.As long as cuprous ion concentration is below 5g/L, just can prevent the decline of etching speed, and etching should etched part definitely, thereby can prevent the generation of short circuit (defective insulation).The lower limit of the concentration of cuprous ion is not particularly limited, and as mentioned above, by there being small quantity, just has the function that auxiliary described azoles suppresses the effect of undercutting.
Be used for cuprous ion concentration is maintained the addition of the hydrogen peroxide of above-mentioned scope, as mentioned above, can suitably adjust, for example, for the 10g cuprous ion is regenerated as cupric ion, must the 2.7g hydrogen peroxide, thereby can add hydrogen peroxide according to the concentration of the cuprous ion that produces.But, if the hydrogen peroxide in the etching solution is excessive, then produce chlorine or heating etc., be dangerous, thereby, preferably add in the scope that cuprous ion concentration can be maintained above-mentioned scope.
As the management process that is used for cuprous ion concentration is maintained the etching solution of above-mentioned scope, can directly measure the concentration of cuprous ion, perhaps, also can measure the redox potential of etching solution, it is converted into the concentration of cuprous ion.
