The present invention relates to an etchant composition of a triple-layer film made of an indium-based metal film, an aluminum-lanthanum alloy film and a titanium-based metal film.
The process of forming a metal wiring on a substrate in a flat panel display typically includes a process of forming a metal film by sputtering, a process of applying a photoresist on a metal film, exposing and developing it to form a photoresist in a selective region, And etching the film. It also includes cleaning processes before and after individual unit processes. This etch process refers to a process that uses a photoresist as a mask to leave a metal film in a selective region. As the etching process, dry etching using plasma or wet etching using an etching solution is usually used.
On the other hand, a transparent conductive film which is an indium based metal film is mainly used as a pixel electrode in a flat panel display. As the source / drain electrode, an aluminum lanthanum alloy film such as Al-La-X (X = Mg, Zn, In, Ca, Te, Sr, Cr, Co, Mo, Nb, Ta, , Sn, Fe, Si, Mo, Pt, and C). A metal film containing titanium as an adhesive film is mainly used for bonding the source / drain electrode and the insulating film to the lower portion of the source / drain electrode.
Conventionally, in order to etch the pixel electrode, the source / drain electrode, and the adhesive film of the flat panel display device, it has been necessary to use different etchant compositions for each electrode. This complicates the etching process and is uneconomical.
It is an object of the present invention to provide an etchant composition capable of efficient batch etching of a triple-layer film made of an indium-based metal film, an aluminum-lanthanum alloy film and a titanium-based metal film.

In addition, since the etchant composition of the present invention has excellent etching properties of an aluminum-lanthanum alloy film and does not cause curling of the upper portion of the Al-La based alloy film, the aluminum-lanthanum alloy film and the titanium- Can be effectively etched in a batch. Further, when the etching solution composition of the present invention is used, the etching process can be significantly simplified and the production amount can be greatly increased.

When the above-mentioned range is satisfied, the surfaces of the indium-based metal film, the aluminum-lanthanum alloy film and the titanium-based metal film can be easily oxidized.
In the present invention, the inorganic acid serves as a supplementary oxidizing agent. The inorganic acid is preferably contained in an amount of 0.1 to 10% by weight, more preferably 1 to 7% by weight based on the total weight of the composition. When the above-mentioned range is satisfied, the surface of the indium-based metal film, the aluminum-lanthanum alloy film, and the titanium-based metal film can be oxidized more easily with the hydrogen peroxide. It is also easy to adjust the etching rate, side etch and taper angle.
The inorganic acid is preferably one selected from the group consisting of nitric acid, sulfuric acid, and a mixture thereof, though not limited thereto.

The content of the fluorinated compound is preferably 0.01 wt% to 5 wt%, more preferably 0.1 wt% to 2 wt% with respect to the total weight of the composition. When included in the above range, the surfaces of the oxidized indium based metal film, the aluminum-lanthanum alloy film and the titanium based metal film can be easily and adequately etched.
At this time, the fluorinated compound is preferably a compound capable of dissociating into a fluorine ion or a polyatomic fluorine ion in a dissolved state. For example, the fluorinated compound may be one or more selected from the group consisting of ammonium fluoride, sodium fluoride, potassium fluoride, ammonium fluoride, sodium fluoride, and potassium fluoride.

The other metal (X) is composed of Mg, Zn, In, Ca, Te, Sr, Cr, Co, Mo, Nb, Ta, W, Ni, Nd, Sn, Fe, Si, Or a combination of two or more species selected from the group consisting of In addition, the titanium-based metal film is a titanium film or a titanium alloy film containing titanium as a main component.
Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail by way of Examples and Test Examples. However, the scope of the present invention is not limited by the following examples and test examples.
Examples 1 to 7 and Comparative Examples 1 to 6 Preparation of Etchant Composition
The composition of the etchant was prepared to be 180 kg according to the ingredients and composition ratio shown in Table 1 below.
Test Example: Characteristic Evaluation of Etchant Composition
<Evaluation of etching characteristics>
As a test substrate, a tri-layer of a-ITO / Al-La-Ni / Ti was deposited on a SiNx layer and a photoresist patterned in a certain shape was used.
The etchant compositions of Examples 1 to 7 and Comparative Examples 1 to 6 were placed in an experimental apparatus (SEMES, model name: ETCHER (TFT)) of a spray-type etching system, and the temperature was set at 30 ° C. Thereafter, after the temperature reached 30 +/- 0.1 DEG C, the etching process was performed. The total etch time was 30% based on EPD. When the etching was completed, the test piece was injected. After the etching was completed, the substrate was washed with deionized water, dried using a hot air drying apparatus, and photoresist was removed using a photoresist (PR) stripper. After cleaning and drying, the inclination angle of the etching profile, critical dimension (CD) loss, etch residue and underlying film damage were evaluated using a scanning electron microscope (SEM: model name: S-4700, manufactured by Hitachi). The results are shown in Table 2 below.
a-ITO / Al-La-Ni / Ti
[Evaluation Criteria of Etching Profile]
⊚: very good (CD Skew: ≤1 μm, Taper Angle: 40 ° to 80 °)
?: Excellent (CD Skew:? 1.5 m, Taper Angle: 40 to 80)
?: Good (CD Skew:? 2 mu m, Taper Angle: 40 to 80)
X: Bad (metal film disappearance and residue formation)
Referring to Table 2, the etchant compositions of Examples 1 to 7 exhibited excellent etching properties for the a-ITO / Al-La-Ni / Ti triple layer, .
However, in the case of the etching solution composition of Comparative Example 1 in which hydrogen peroxide was excessively contained, the etching profile was extremely poor due to the overexcitation angle of the Al-La-Ni thin film. Further, in the case of the etching solution composition of Comparative Example 2 in which nitric acid was contained in an excess amount, the etching profile defects and the damage of the lower film due to the overexposure angle were observed. In the case of the etching solution composition of Comparative Example 3 in which no fluorine compound was contained, an etch of the upper a-ITO occurred. In the case of the etching solution composition of Comparative Example 4, the damage of the lower film was remarkably increased by the excessive fluorinated compound. In the case of the etching solution compositions of Comparative Example 5 and Comparative Example 6 which did not contain hydrogen peroxide or nitric acid, the etching rate was very slow and the residue and the poor etching profile were observed.
