Description

A kind of wire nano silicon dioxide sol and preparation method thereof
Technical field
The present invention relates to CMP technique polishing field, particularly relate to a kind of wire nano silicon dioxide sol and preparation method thereof.
Background technology
For meeting huge semi-conductor market demand and tackling the requirement that consumer is the highest to properties of product, semiconductor device is transported Line speed is increasingly faster, and memory capacity is more and more higher, and chip feature sizes and integrated level are created all along Intel The Moore's Law that beginning people G.Moore proposes develops rapidly.Order about processing technique towards higher electric current density, higher clock Frequency and the transfer of more interconnection layer.Due to reducing of device size, the reduction of optical lithography equipment depth of focus, it is desirable to wafer surface The flatness of acceptable resolution reaches nanoscale.For solving this problem, it is possible to the chemical machinery realizing global planarizartion is thrown Light (Chemical Mechanical Polishing, CMP) technology, becomes one of important critical process of semiconductor manufacturing at one stroke.CMP Technology is during carrying out, and polishing pad and wafer relatively rotate, and polishing fluid flows between, reaches the overall situation with this flat The purpose of smoothization.
Since 1980s IBM introduces CMP technique, CMP application in semiconductor fabrication is more and more extensive.? In many application of CMP, silicon oxide dielectric material polishes always in occupation of critically important position.Consult according to market in 2010 Inquiry company Linx investigates display, and silicon oxide dielectric material polishing about occupies the market share more than 20%.Because of oxidation siliceous hard, (only react with HF and highly basic) in chemical inertness, main based on machinery removal in polishing, semiconductor factory generally uses Silica membrane is polished by the silicon dioxide polishing solution of 20wt% even more high concentration, the high polish pressure of 4-6psi, but It is only capable of reaching the removal rate of about 100nm/min.Therefore, polishing fluid how is optimized to reduce polishing fluid concentration, machinery pressure Power, thus reduce polishing fluid cost and energy consumption while reaching to improve silicon oxide removal rate, it is constantly subjected to quasiconductor circle and is paid close attention to.
For accelerating silicon oxide removal rate, a lot of research worker are made that a lot of good try.As far back as nineteen ninety, L.M Cook His article (Lee M.Cook.J.Non-Cryst.Solids, 120,152-171,1990.) refer to use catechol to promote Enter agent, the coordination between product (orthosilicic acid) can be removed by catechol and silicon oxide and accelerate the polishing of silicon oxide;And In patent CN 101463226, An Ji Microtronics A/S Song Wei is red et al. claims the heterocyclic compound used containing 1-4 nitrogen-atoms Thing and derivant, silicon oxide removal rate can be brought up to about 90nm/min by 40nm/min.In An Ji Microtronics A/S Another patent (CN 101638557) in, Chen Guodong et al. is disclosed in polishing fluid and uses carbon atom number is the polynary carboxylic of 2-8 Acid (salt) and a replacement organic phospho acid (salt) increase auxiliary agent as speed, it is possible to promote the polishing of silicon oxide.With Soluble tartar. it is Example, their data display silicon oxide removal rate can be further increased to 310nm/min by 270nm/min.
Above patent all by adding various chelating agen in polishing fluid, accelerator improves polishing speed, the problem of do so exists Easily stick in chip die in these chemical substances, make troubles to follow-up cleaning.People begin look for additive relatively Few polishing fluid, wherein abrasive grains is that the polishing fluid of calcined silica (fumed silica) is remarkably improved polishing speed, Because silicon dioxide is after calcined crystallization, hardness significantly rises, and strengthens with the mechanism of wafer.But, its shortcoming is also Significant: exactly because calcined silica hardness is too big, easily leaving the scratch defects of unrepairable on wafer, this is can not Tolerance.
How high polishing speed is combined with low surface defect, low stain, be the main side of CMP planarization liquid research from now on To.
