Description

蝕刻劑組成物    Etchant composition   

以下揭露內容關於一種蝕刻劑組成物,且更具體地,關於一種用於TFT-LCD顯示器的電極中的蝕刻劑組成物。 The following disclosure relates to an etchant composition, and more specifically, to an etchant composition used in an electrode of a TFT-LCD display.

在半導體裝置中的基板上形成金屬佈線的製程一般包括用於形成金屬層的濺射製程、藉由光阻劑塗覆具有所欲圖案的光阻劑形成製程、曝光和顯影、以及在形成佈線後,去除不需要的光阻劑的剝離製程。 A process for forming a metal wiring on a substrate in a semiconductor device generally includes a sputtering process for forming a metal layer, a photoresist forming process with a photoresist coating having a desired pattern, exposure and development, and wiring formation After that, an unnecessary photoresist is removed by a peeling process.

為了製造半導體裝置和TFT-LCD的基板,通常使用鋁或鋁合金層作為用於TFT(薄膜電晶體)的柵極和資料線電極的佈線材料。然而,為了實現大型顯示器,減少用於電極的佈線的電阻是必要的。為此,已經有使用具有低電阻的金屬銅來形成佈線的嘗試。 In order to manufacture a semiconductor device and a substrate of a TFT-LCD, an aluminum or aluminum alloy layer is generally used as a wiring material for a gate and a data line electrode of a TFT (thin film transistor). However, in order to realize a large display, it is necessary to reduce the resistance of the wiring for the electrodes. For this reason, there have been attempts to form wiring using metallic copper having a low resistance.

然而,使用銅層進行佈線形成的製程具有與矽絕緣膜的黏著強度差的問題。為了彌補銅層的缺點,使用鈦、鉬、鈦/鉬合金等作為下層障壁金屬層。 However, the process of forming a wiring using a copper layer has a problem of poor adhesion strength with a silicon insulating film. In order to make up for the shortcomings of the copper layer, titanium, molybdenum, titanium / molybdenum alloy, etc. are used as the lower barrier metal layer.

在障壁金屬是鈦/鉬的合金的情況下,由於鈦的化學性質,只能使用某些離子或在一定條件下進行蝕刻。在障壁金屬是鉬的情況下,對於蝕刻製程是有利的, 但是與銅/鈦和銅/鉬合金層相比,銅層與鉬層之間的黏著強度差。特別是,由於蝕刻劑會滲透到銅層與鉬層之間的黏著強度差的部分而會加劇過度蝕刻。 In the case where the barrier metal is a titanium / molybdenum alloy, due to the chemical nature of titanium, only certain ions can be used or etching under certain conditions. In the case where the barrier metal is molybdenum, it is advantageous for the etching process, but compared with the copper / titanium and copper / molybdenum alloy layers, the adhesion strength between the copper layer and the molybdenum layer is poor. In particular, overetching is exacerbated because the etchant penetrates to the portion where the adhesive strength between the copper layer and the molybdenum layer is poor.

關於可用於銅層和鉬合金層的蝕刻劑組成物,韓國專利登記號10-1495619揭露一種過氧化氫-基底蝕刻劑。然而,該蝕刻劑係用於鉬合金層,且在銅/鉬合金層的情況下,不考慮銅與障壁層之間的黏著強度差的部分的界面保護,因此在銅/鉬層的界面上存在過蝕刻問題。另外,特別是環狀胺化合物與在銅層蝕刻期間產生的銅離子結合的情況下,在此情況下,當在蝕刻劑組成物中存在氯離子時,氯離子和結合到銅離子上的化合物會反應並產生微溶的沉澱。 Regarding an etchant composition that can be used for a copper layer and a molybdenum alloy layer, Korean Patent Registration No. 10-1495619 discloses a hydrogen peroxide-based etchant. However, this etchant is used for the molybdenum alloy layer, and in the case of the copper / molybdenum alloy layer, the interface protection of the portion where the adhesion strength between copper and the barrier layer is poor is not taken into account, and therefore, the There is an over-etching problem. In addition, particularly in the case where a cyclic amine compound is combined with copper ions generated during the etching of the copper layer, in this case, when chloride ions are present in the etchant composition, the chloride ions and the compounds bound to the copper ions Reacts and produces a slightly soluble precipitate.

因此,目前需要一種技術來改善由銅層和鉬層的低黏著強度引起的界面的過度蝕刻問題。 Therefore, a technology is currently needed to improve the problem of over-etching of the interface caused by the low adhesion strength of the copper layer and the molybdenum layer.

相對於蝕刻劑組成物,根據本發明之示例性實施例的過氧化氫可以10重量%至30重量%被包括在內,且更佳是以15重量%至25重量%被包括在內。當過氧化氫以少於10重量%被包括在內時,則銅和鉬的氧化力不足,使得不能進行蝕刻,且當過氧化氫以超過30重量%被包括在內時,則蝕刻速率太快,使得製程控制困難。在該範圍內,過氧化氫可以實施較佳的蝕刻速率以防止蝕刻殘留物和蝕刻缺陷。此外,它可以降低CD損失,並允許簡單的製程調整。 With respect to the etchant composition, hydrogen peroxide according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention may be included in an amount of 10% to 30% by weight, and more preferably included in an amount of 15% to 25% by weight. When hydrogen peroxide is included at less than 10% by weight, the oxidizing power of copper and molybdenum is insufficient so that etching cannot be performed, and when hydrogen peroxide is included at more than 30% by weight, the etching rate is too high. Fast, making process control difficult. Within this range, hydrogen peroxide may implement a better etch rate to prevent etch residues and etch defects. In addition, it reduces CD losses and allows simple process adjustments.

b)含有選自由分子中的氧、硫及氮所組成之群組中之任一種或二種或更多種的環狀化合物或芳香族化合物。 b) A cyclic compound or an aromatic compound containing any one or two or more members selected from the group consisting of oxygen, sulfur, and nitrogen in a molecule.

根據本發明之示例性實施例,該含有選自由分子中的氧、硫及氮所組成之群組中之任一種或二種或更 多種的環狀化合物或芳香族化合物可以調整銅和鉬的蝕刻速率,從而降低CD損失的模式。此外,該含有選自由分子中的氧、硫及氮所組成之群組中之任一種或二種或更多種的環狀化合物或芳香族化合物可以增加製程幅度(margin),並且允許獲得具有適當錐角的蝕刻輪廓。 According to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the cyclic compound or aromatic compound containing any one or two or more members selected from the group consisting of oxygen, sulfur, and nitrogen in a molecule can adjust copper and molybdenum Etching rate, which reduces the mode of CD loss. In addition, the cyclic compound or aromatic compound containing any one or two or more members selected from the group consisting of oxygen, sulfur, and nitrogen in the molecule can increase the margin of the process and allow obtaining Etched contour with proper cone angle.

作為具體實例,該含有選自由分子中的氧、硫及氮所組成之群組中之任一種或二種或更多種的環狀化合物或芳香族化合物可以是選自由噁唑、咪唑、吡唑、***、四唑、5-胺基四唑、甲基四唑、哌嗪、甲基哌嗪、羥乙基哌嗪、苯并咪唑、苯并吡唑、甲基苯并***、氫甲基苯并***及羥甲基苯并***所組成之群組中的任一種或兩種或更多種的混合物,但不限於此。 As a specific example, the cyclic compound or aromatic compound containing any one or two or more members selected from the group consisting of oxygen, sulfur, and nitrogen in the molecule may be selected from the group consisting of oxazole, imidazole, and pyridine Azole, triazole, tetrazole, 5-aminotetrazole, methyltetrazole, piperazine, methylpiperazine, hydroxyethylpiperazine, benzimidazole, benzopyrazole, methylbenzotriazole, Any one or a mixture of two or more of the group consisting of hydromethylbenzotriazole and hydroxymethylbenzotriazole, but is not limited thereto.

較佳是,基於100重量份的該過氧化氫,本發明之含有選自由分子中的氧、硫及氮所組成之群組中之任一種或二種或更多種的環狀化合物或芳香族化合物係以0.1重量份至50重量份被包括在內,且更佳是以1重量份至20重量份被包括在內,又更佳是以2重量份至10重量份被包括在內。在該範圍內,該含有選自由氧、硫及氮所組成之群組中之任一種或二種或更多種的環狀化合物或芳香族化合物可保持適當的蝕刻速率。 Preferably, based on 100 parts by weight of the hydrogen peroxide, the present invention contains any one or two or more cyclic compounds or aromatic compounds selected from the group consisting of oxygen, sulfur and nitrogen in a molecule. The family compound is included in an amount of 0.1 to 50 parts by weight, more preferably 1 to 20 parts by weight, and even more preferably 2 to 10 parts by weight. Within this range, the cyclic compound or aromatic compound containing any one or two or more members selected from the group consisting of oxygen, sulfur, and nitrogen can maintain an appropriate etching rate.

當該含有選自由分子中的氧、硫及氮所組成之群組中之任一種或二種或更多種的環狀化合物或芳香族化合物以少於0.1重量份被包括在內時,難以調整蝕刻速率,調整錐角的能力可能會降低,並且製程幅度很小,從 而降低大量生產率。此外,當該含有選自由分子中的氧、硫及氮所組成之群組中之任一種或二種或更多種的環狀化合物或芳香族化合物以超過50重量份被包括在內時,蝕刻速率降低,因此無效率(inefficient)。 When the cyclic compound or aromatic compound containing any one or two or more members selected from the group consisting of oxygen, sulfur, and nitrogen in a molecule is included in less than 0.1 parts by weight, it is difficult Adjusting the etch rate, the ability to adjust the cone angle may be reduced, and the process width is small, which reduces a lot of productivity. In addition, when the cyclic compound or aromatic compound containing any one or two or more members selected from the group consisting of oxygen, sulfur, and nitrogen in a molecule is included in more than 50 parts by weight, The etching rate is reduced and therefore inefficient.

c)胺基羧酸系化合物或胺基磷酸系化合物。 c) Aminocarboxylic acid-based compound or aminophosphoric acid-based compound.

特別地,在銅層的情況下,當銅離子大量存在於蝕刻劑組成物中時,它們形成被氧化的鈍化層,從而防止蝕刻。然而,藉由添加胺基羧酸系化合物或胺基磷酸系化合物,可以防止由銅離子形成鈍化層。此外,胺基羧酸系化合物或胺基磷酸系化合物可以防止過氧化氫本身的分解反應,從而增加蝕刻劑的穩定性。 Particularly, in the case of a copper layer, when copper ions are present in a large amount in the etchant composition, they form an oxidized passivation layer, thereby preventing etching. However, by adding an aminocarboxylic acid-based compound or an aminophosphoric acid-based compound, the formation of a passivation layer by copper ions can be prevented. In addition, the aminocarboxylic acid-based compound or aminophosphoric acid-based compound can prevent the decomposition reaction of hydrogen peroxide itself, thereby increasing the stability of the etchant.

在沒有將胺基羧酸系化合物或胺基磷酸系化合物添加到蝕刻劑組成物中的情況下,在蝕刻製程期間中氧化的金屬離子被活化,使得蝕刻劑的蝕刻特性容易變化,且會促進過氧化氫的分解反應引起著火和***。 Without the addition of an aminocarboxylic acid-based compound or an aminophosphoric acid-based compound to the etchant composition, the oxidized metal ions are activated during the etching process, so that the etching characteristics of the etchant are easily changed and promoted. The decomposition reaction of hydrogen peroxide causes fire and explosion.

因此,本發明之胺基羧酸系化合物或胺基磷酸系化合物可以與在蝕刻製程中產生的金屬離子螯合以抑制過氧化氫的分解,並且用於在儲存蝕刻劑組成物時增加穩定性。 Therefore, the aminocarboxylic acid-based compound or aminophosphoric acid-based compound of the present invention can chelate with metal ions generated in the etching process to suppress the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide, and is used to increase the stability when the etchant composition is stored. .

根據本發明之示例性實施例的胺基羧酸系化合物或胺基磷酸系化合物可以包括在分子中具有胺基的羧酸基或膦酸基。 The aminocarboxylic acid-based compound or the aminophosphoric acid-based compound according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention may include a carboxylic acid group or a phosphonic acid group having an amine group in a molecule.

較佳是,基於100重量份的該過氧化氫,該胺基羧酸系化合物或胺基磷酸系化合物係以0.1重量份至50重量份被包括在內,且更佳是以1重量份至20重量份被包括在內,又更佳是以5重量份至15重量份被包括在內。在該範圍內,金屬離子可以優異的效率去活性,並且可以抑制與金屬離子的副反應。 Preferably, based on 100 parts by weight of the hydrogen peroxide, the aminocarboxylic acid-based compound or aminophosphoric acid-based compound is included in an amount of 0.1 to 50 parts by weight, and more preferably 1 to 50 parts by weight. 20 parts by weight is included, and even more preferably 5 to 15 parts by weight is included. Within this range, metal ions can be deactivated with excellent efficiency, and side reactions with metal ions can be suppressed.

當該胺基羧酸系化合物或胺基磷酸系化合物以少於0.1重量份被包括在內時,待去活性的金屬離子的量過小,使得控制過氧化氫的分解反應的能力可能下降,並且當以超過50重量份被包括在內時,可能不期望會藉由形成另外的螯合物使金屬去活性,因此無效率。 When the aminocarboxylic acid-based compound or aminophosphoric acid-based compound is included in less than 0.1 parts by weight, the amount of metal ions to be deactivated is too small, so that the ability to control the decomposition reaction of hydrogen peroxide may be reduced, and When included in more than 50 parts by weight, it may not be desirable to deactivate the metal by forming another chelate, and thus is inefficient.

However, when the content of the fluorine compound is small, a molybdenum residue may be generated, and when it contains any one or two or more cyclic compounds selected from the group consisting of oxygen, sulfur, and nitrogen in the molecule When the content of the aromatic compound is increased, the etching rate of copper is significantly reduced, and it is difficult to perform the etching treatment.

[實驗例:蝕刻性能評估] [Experimental example: Evaluation of etching performance]

在玻璃基板上,分別依次沉積具有5500Å的厚度的銅層和鉬層以製造試樣。對該試樣進行光蝕刻製程以形成圖案化的光阻膜,並分別使用實例1至實例29和比較例1至比較例13的蝕刻劑組成物對銅層和鉬層進行蝕刻。此處,使用可噴射設備(小型蝕刻機ME-001)在32℃下進行120秒的蝕刻製程。 On the glass substrate, a copper layer and a molybdenum layer each having a thickness of 5500Å were sequentially deposited to produce a sample. The sample is subjected to a photo-etching process to form a patterned photoresist film, and the copper and molybdenum layers are etched using the etchant compositions of Examples 1 to 29 and Comparative Examples 1 to 13, respectively. Here, an etching process was performed using a sprayable device (small etching machine ME-001) at 32 ° C for 120 seconds.

在完成蝕刻之後,測量蝕刻終點。此外,使用掃描型電子顯微鏡(Hitachi,S-4800),觀察蝕刻的銅層和鉬層的蝕刻特性,諸如CD損失、錐角、或銅層和鉬層的界面的過度蝕刻的存在或不存在等。該銅層和鉬層的界面的過度蝕刻的存在或不存在可以藉由傾斜該試樣使用掃描型電子顯微鏡來確認。結果顯示在下表2。 After the etching is completed, the etching end point is measured. In addition, using a scanning electron microscope (Hitachi, S-4800), the etching characteristics of the etched copper layer and the molybdenum layer were observed, such as the CD loss, the taper angle, or the presence or absence of over-etching of the interface between the copper layer and the molybdenum layer. Wait. The presence or absence of excessive etching at the interface between the copper layer and the molybdenum layer can be confirmed by using a scanning electron microscope by tilting the sample. The results are shown in Table 2 below.

上表2表示蝕刻性能評估。如上表2所示,與比較例1至比較例13的蝕刻劑組成物相比,根據本發明之實例1至實例29的蝕刻劑組成物含有C4或更多碳數的烷基胺,因而在所有蝕刻偏差、CD損失、錐角方面均表現優異的結果。 Table 2 above shows the evaluation of the etching performance. As shown in Table 2 above, the etchant compositions according to Examples 1 to 29 of the present invention contain C 4 or more alkylamines, as compared with the etchant compositions of Comparative Examples 1 to 13, and therefore, Excellent results in all etching deviations, CD losses, and taper angles.

特別地,當將實例4、實例6、實例11、實例 17和實例25與未添加氟化合物的實例5、實例7、實例12、實例19和實例23進行比較時,實例4、實例6、實例11、實例17和實例25具有改善的鉬層的蝕刻速率且沒有惡化過度蝕刻控制效果,因此具有降低的尾部長度,且能有效地從其中移除鉬殘餘物。 Specifically, when comparing Example 4, Example 6, Example 11, Example 17 and Example 25 with Examples 5, Example 7, Example 12, Example 19 and Example 23 without the addition of a fluorine compound, Example 4, Example 6, Example 23 11. Examples 17 and 25 have an improved etch rate of the molybdenum layer without deteriorating the effect of the over-etch control, and thus have a reduced tail length and can effectively remove molybdenum residues therefrom.

比較例1至比較例7包括C3丙胺,因而不能抑制蝕刻劑滲透到銅層和鉬層界面,結果存在過度蝕刻。此外,比較例8包括C2乙胺,因而引起過度蝕刻。 Since Comparative Examples 1 to 7 included C 3 propylamine, it was impossible to suppress the etchant from penetrating to the interface between the copper layer and the molybdenum layer, and as a result, there was excessive etching. In addition, Comparative Example 8 included C 2 ethylamine, and thus caused excessive etching.

比較例9不包括作為含有選自由分子中的氧、硫及氮所組成之群組中之任一種或二種或更多種的環狀化合物或芳香族化合物的5-胺基四唑,使得難以控制蝕刻速率,且錐形的形式差。比較例10不包括作為胺基羧酸系化合物或胺基磷酸系化合物的亞胺基二乙酸(IDA),因此導致過度蝕刻的過氧化氫分解反應的控制能力差。比較例11不包括作為選自由有機酸、無機酸及其鹽之任一種或二種或更多種的化合物的磷酸氫銨(AHP),因而具有高錐角值。比較例12不包括作為底切抑制劑的鳥糞嘌呤,因而產生鉬殘餘物,具具有高錐角。比較例13包括作為環狀胺化合物的環己胺,因而不能控制導致過度蝕刻的過度蝕刻抑制。 Comparative Example 9 does not include 5-aminotetrazole as a cyclic compound or an aromatic compound containing any one or two or more members selected from the group consisting of oxygen, sulfur, and nitrogen in a molecule such that It is difficult to control the etching rate and the form of the cone is poor. Comparative Example 10 did not include imino diacetic acid (IDA) as an amino carboxylic acid-based compound or an amino phosphoric acid-based compound, and therefore the control ability of the hydrogen peroxide decomposition reaction that caused excessive etching was poor. Comparative Example 11 does not include ammonium hydrogen phosphate (AHP) as a compound selected from any one or two or more of an organic acid, an inorganic acid, and a salt thereof, and thus has a high cone angle value. Comparative Example 12 did not include guanopurine as an undercut inhibitor, and thus produced a molybdenum residue with a high cone angle. Comparative Example 13 includes cyclohexylamine, which is a cyclic amine compound, and thus cannot suppress excessive etching suppression that causes excessive etching.

The results are shown in Figures 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.

圖1、圖2和圖3示出分別使用根據實例1、實例6和實例11的蝕刻劑組成物蝕刻銅層和鉬層,然後使用掃描型電子顯微鏡傾斜從側面觀察的試樣的剖面所獲得的照片。 FIG. 1, FIG. 2 and FIG. 3 show obtained by etching a copper layer and a molybdenum layer using an etchant composition according to Example 1, Example 6, and Example 11, respectively, and then obliquely cutting a cross section of a sample viewed from the side using a scanning electron microscope Photo.

然而,當使用比較例1和比較例6的蝕刻劑組成物時,可證實不佳的視覺輪廓,這是因在銅和鉬層界面上發生過度蝕刻以擴大界面間隙,如圖4和圖5所示。 However, when the etchant compositions of Comparative Examples 1 and 6 were used, poor visual contours could be confirmed due to excessive etching at the interface of the copper and molybdenum layers to expand the interfacial gap, as shown in FIGS. 4 and 5 As shown.

此外,藉由掃描型電子顯微鏡觀察被蝕刻以確認蝕刻特性的銅層和鉬層的試樣的部面。結果顯示在圖6和圖7。 In addition, a scanning electron microscope was used to observe the surface of a sample of a copper layer and a molybdenum layer that had been etched to confirm the etching characteristics. The results are shown in Figures 6 and 7.

圖6示出使用根據實例1的蝕刻劑組成物蝕刻銅層和鉬層之後,藉由掃描型電子顯微鏡觀察到試樣的剖面的照片,而圖7示出使用根據比較例6的蝕刻劑組成物蝕刻銅/鉬層之後,藉由掃描型電子顯微鏡觀察到試樣的剖面的照片。 FIG. 6 shows a photograph of a cross section of a sample observed by a scanning electron microscope after etching a copper layer and a molybdenum layer using the etchant composition according to Example 1, and FIG. 7 shows a composition using the etchant according to Comparative Example 6 After the copper / molybdenum layer was etched, a photograph of a cross section of the sample was observed with a scanning electron microscope.

如圖6所示,當使用實例1的蝕刻劑組成物時,蝕刻特性優異。 As shown in FIG. 6, when the etchant composition of Example 1 is used, the etching characteristics are excellent.

如圖7所示,當使用比較例6的蝕刻劑組成物 時,藉由銅和鉬層界面的過度蝕刻顯示出倒錐形的形式的不佳蝕刻特性。 As shown in Fig. 7, when the etchant composition of Comparative Example 6 was used, excessive etching by the copper and molybdenum layer interface showed poor etching characteristics in the form of an inverted cone.

如上所述,當蝕刻銅層和鉬層時,根據本發明之蝕刻劑組成物藉由控制銅和鉬層界面的過度蝕刻允許穩定的蝕刻製程。此外,如結果,證實了改善蝕刻特性諸如錐角、CD損失和視覺線性度。 As described above, when the copper layer and the molybdenum layer are etched, the etchant composition according to the present invention allows a stable etching process by controlling excessive etching at the interface of the copper and molybdenum layers. Further, as a result, it was confirmed that the etching characteristics such as taper angle, CD loss, and visual linearity were improved.
