In addition, by using a solvent of any of the florin-based or hydroxylamine-based to remove the residues and oxides present on the SNC plug.
진술한 바와 같이, 본 발명은 선택적 화학기상증착법으로 텅스텐을 매립하여 SNC플러그를 형성한 것으로써, 에치백 및 화학적기계연마공정을 대신하여 부분화학적기계연마(Touch CMP)공정만을 진행함으로 기존의 SNC플러그분리공정을 단순화시키고, SNC홀을 매립하는 물질로 텅스텐을 사용하여 콘택저항을 감소시킬 수 있는 장점을 가지고 있다.As stated, the present invention is to form an SNC plug by embedding tungsten by selective chemical vapor deposition, and instead of the etch back and chemical mechanical polishing processes, only the partial chemical mechanical polishing (Touch CMP) process is performed. Simplify the plug separation process and use tungsten as a material to fill the SNC hole, which has the advantage of reducing the contact resistance.
