구리와 티타늄을 포함하는 금속막용 식각액 조성물{AN ETCHING SOLUTION COMPOSITION FOR METAL LAYER COMPRISING COPPER AND TITANIUM}TECHNICAL FIELD [0001] The present invention relates to an etchant composition for a metal film containing copper and titanium,

본 발명은 반도체 장치 및 평판표시장치, 특히 TFT의 게이트, 소스/드레인 배선 및 전극으로 사용되는 구리와 티타늄을 포함하는 금속막용 식각액 조성물에 관한 것이다. The present invention relates to a semiconductor device and a flat panel display, and more particularly, to an etchant composition for a metal film containing copper and titanium, which is used for gate, source / drain wiring and electrodes of a TFT.

반도체 장치 및 평판표시장치에서 기판 위에 금속 배선을 형성하는 과정은 통상적으로 스퍼터링에 의한 금속막 형성공정, 포토레지스트 도포, 노광 및 현상에 의한 선택적인 영역에서의 포토레지스트 형성공정, 및 식각공정에 의한 단계로 구성된다. 또한, 개별적인 단위 공정 전후의 세정공정 등을 포함한다. 이러한 식각공정은 포토레지스트를 마스크로 사용하여 선택적인 영역에 금속막을 남기는 공정을 의미하며, 통상적으로 플라즈마 등을 이용한 건식 식각 또는 식각액을 사용하는 습식 식각이 사용된다.The process of forming a metal wiring on a substrate in a semiconductor device and a flat panel display device is usually performed by a metal film forming process by sputtering, a photoresist coating process, a photoresist forming process in an optional region by exposure and development, . It also includes cleaning processes before and after individual unit processes. This etching process refers to a process of leaving a metal film in a selective region by using a photoresist as a mask. Typically, dry etching using plasma or wet etching using an etching solution is used.

분사식 식각 방식의 실험장비(제조사: SEMES사, 모델명: ETCHER(TFT)) 내에 실시예1 및 비교예1의 식각액 조성물을 넣고 온도를 25℃로 세팅하여 가온하였다. 그 후, 온도가 30±0.1℃에 도달한 후, 식각 공정을 수행하였다. 총 식각 시간을 EPD를 기준으로 하여 40%를 주어 실시하였다. 시편을 넣고 분사를 시작하여 식각이 다 되면 꺼내어 탈이온수로 세정한 후, 열풍(熱風) 건조장치를 이용하여 건조하고, 포토레지스트(PR) 박리기(stripper)를 이용하여 포토 레지스트를 제거하였다. 세정 및 건조 후 전자주사현미경(SEM; 제조사: HITACHI사, 모델명: S-4700)을 이용하여 식각 특성을 평가하여, 그 결과를 표 2에 나타내었다.The etchant compositions of Example 1 and Comparative Example 1 were placed in an experimental apparatus of a spray-type etching method (manufacturer: SEMES, model name: ETCHER (TFT)) and heated at 25 캜. Thereafter, after the temperature reached 30 +/- 0.1 DEG C, the etching process was performed. Total etch time was 40% based on EPD. When the etching was completed, the specimen was injected. After the etching was completed, the substrate was rinsed with deionized water, dried using a hot air drying apparatus, and photoresist was removed using a photoresist (PR) stripper. After cleaning and drying, etching characteristics were evaluated using an electron microscope (SEM; manufacturer: HITACHI, model: S-4700). The results are shown in Table 2.

Next, the etching test was carried out again, and it was evaluated as defective when the difference in the side etching with respect to the reference exceeded 0.2 탆.

표 2를 참조하면, 본 발명을 따른 실시예1의 조성물을 이용하면 식각특성 및 매수경시특성이 모두 우수한 것을 알 수 있다. 반면에, 암모늄염과 유기산을 포함하지 않는 비교예1의 조성물의 경우 처리매수특성이 불량인 것을 알 수 있다.Referring to Table 2, when the composition of Example 1 according to the present invention is used, it can be seen that both the etching property and the number-of-second-time characteristics are excellent. On the other hand, in the case of the composition of Comparative Example 1 which does not contain an ammonium salt and an organic acid, it is found that the treatment number property is poor.
