Abstract

PURPOSE:To quantitatively evaluate the bonding strength of a thin film with high accuracy by a simple means, by providing a process for forming a plurality of patterns and a process for evaluating the bonding strength of the pattern group. CONSTITUTION:The thin film 2 of the measuring region of an object to be measured having the thin film 2 bonded thereto is selectively etched to form a plurality of patterns 5 different in a dimension and, thereafter, for example, an adhesive tape is bonded to the pattern group and peeled off. In this case, from the effect of internal stress by selective etching, the pattern 5 having a smaller dimension has a tendency to easily release along with the tape. Therefore, the bonding strength of the thin film 2 can be evaluated from the pattern 5 released along with the tape in the pattern group by peeling off the tape. That is, when only the pattern 5 having a small area is released along with the tape, it can be evaluated that the bonding strength of the thin film 2 to a substrate 1 is high and, when the pattern 5 having a large area is also released along with the tape, it can be evaluated that the bonding strength of the thin film 2 to the substrate 1 is weak.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Object of the Invention] (Industrial Application Field) The present invention relates to a method for evaluating the adhesion of a thin film formed on a substrate or the like.

(Prior Art) When a thin film is formed on a substrate, the adhesion force of the thin film to the substrate greatly affects the durability and abrasion resistance of the thin film, so it is important to accurately evaluate the adhesion force.

For this reason, conventional methods for evaluating the adhesion of thin films include: 1. Sticking an adhesive tape onto the thin film, and when the tape is peeled off, the thin film remains on the substrate or is peeled off together with the tape. The peel-off method evaluates the adhesion strength by observing the The tensile method involves peeling off a thin film and measuring the force applied during the peeling to evaluate the adhesion force. ■ A small hard indenter is pressed against the thin film, the indenter is moved under various loads, and when the thin film peels off, A scratch method is known in which adhesion is evaluated by measuring load.

However, although the above-mentioned peeling method (2) is extremely simple and widely used, it is only possible to make a rough judgment of adhesion strength, and accurate evaluation is difficult.

Furthermore, in the tensile method (2), it is difficult to reliably bond the disc and the thin film, and the thin film often tears from the edge of the disc, resulting in variations in measured values. Furthermore, the scratching method (2) requires forming a large number of scratches on the thin film using loads of different magnitudes, which makes the operation complicated and makes it difficult to determine whether peeling has occurred.

(Function) The present invention selectively etches the thin film in the measurement area of the object to be measured to which the thin film is attached to form a plurality of patterns with different dimensions, and then affixes, for example, an adhesive tape to the group of patterns. Peel off the tape. In this case, the smaller the pattern, the easier it is to peel off together with the tape due to the influence of internal stress in the selective etching. For this reason,
The adhesive force of the thin film can be evaluated from the pattern (size of pattern area) that is peeled off together with the tape in the pattern group by peeling off the tape. In other words, if only a pattern with a small area in a group of patterns is peeled off together with the tape, it can be evaluated that the thin film has strong adhesion to the substrate, etc. On the other hand, if a pattern with a large area is also peeled off with the tape, the thin film can be evaluated as having strong adhesion to the substrate. It can be evaluated that the adhesion to the substrate etc. is weak.

Next, as shown in FIG. 4(d), the exposed thin film 2 portions are selectively etched using the resist pattern 4 as a mask to form a pattern group consisting of thin film patterns 5 with different dimensions and a number of traps. was removed (as shown in Figure (e)). Here, the pattern group is 100 μmXIo in each of the X and Y directions as shown in FIG. 2 showing the microscope field of view.

It is composed of 81 thin film patterns 5 that define a measurement area 8 of 00 μm×100 μm.

By the way, thin film patterns 5 with small dimensions in the pattern group (for example, patterns separated by grids of 61, Oj, 71.7j) are different from thin film patterns 5 with large dimensions (
For example, when the adhesive tape is peeled off, it tends to be peeled off together with the adhesive tape due to the influence of the internal stress caused by the etching, compared to a pattern separated by grids 8a, 8b, 7a, and 7b. Furthermore, when the adhesive tape is peeled off, a thin film with strong adhesion to the substrate will have a small area of the thin film pattern to be peeled off together with the tape, whereas a thin film with weak adhesion will have a large area of the thin film pattern to be peeled off together with the tape. . From these facts, peeling, which is the ratio of the area of the measurement area (So) shown in equation (1) below to the area of the thin film pattern (Sl) peeled off together with the tape, is calculated as follows: The degree of adhesion of the thin film can be evaluated from the 1iIt area ratio (A).

A=S1/So - (1) Therefore, in this example, the area (S) of the thin film pattern peeled off together with the tape in the pattern group is expressed by the above equation (1) (where S in the equation is 100 μm x 100 am - I
QOQOum), it was quantitatively evaluated that when the peeled area ratio (A) is small, the adhesion is strong, and on the other hand, when it is large, the adhesion is weak.

Therefore, according to the method of the present invention, the degree of adhesion of the thin film can be quantitatively evaluated from the area of the peeled pattern. In particular, if the thin film pattern is formed on a double-logarithmic scale, it is possible to easily distinguish between thin film patterns that have peeled off and thin film patterns that have not peeled off. can be evaluated with higher accuracy.

In the above embodiment, the pattern is formed by dividing it into grids with intervals on a logarithmic scale, but the invention is not limited to this, and patterns with different dimensions can be formed by changing the grid intervals from close to ↑■ in stages.

In the above examples, the adhesive force of the pattern group was evaluated by pasting and peeling off the adhesive tape, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the adhesion force V of the pattern group may be evaluated by applying an external force to the pattern group by mechanical means other than live tube tape, or by applying ultrasonic waves to the pattern group.
