Chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) of Cu pattern wafer based alkaline slurry in GLSI with R(NH2)n as complexing agent was investigated. In Cu CMP procedure, it is necessary to minimize the surface dishing and erosion while maintaining good planarity. This requirements are met through the complexing agents. Based on the reaction mechanism analysis of Cu in alkaline slurry with R(NH2)n as complexing agent in CMP, the performance of Cu dishing and erosion were discussed. The results showed that the slurry stability can be improved obviously by the addition of R(NH2)n as complexing agent, both Cu1 and Cu2 have good dishing and erosion performance. Furthermore, the dishing condition of Cu2 (180-230nm) is better than that of Cu1 (280-370nm), and the erosion condition of Cu2 (230-260nm) is also better than that of Cu1 (450-500nm).

In this paper, experiments are designed and conducted to investigate the effects of abrasive size for Chemical-Mechanical Polishing (CMP) of copper film under different additives in HNO3-based polishing slurries. Alumina modified colloidal silica 100S (φ26nm), 200S (φ40nm) and Al2O3 (φ90nm), are used as polishing abrasives in this study. Experiments showed the following results. (1) With citric acid as an additive to slurry, the removal rate (RR) of the CMP process increases with abrasive size. Surface quality, however, becomes worse at the same time. (2) With benzotriazole (BTA) as an additive, RR of the slurry with Al2O3 powder is slightly higher but it does not increase with the abrasive size in general. Surface quality tends to be worse at the same time though it is not as strong as that in the slurry with citric acid as the additive. (3) The size effect of abrasive on RR with citric acid as additive is stronger than that with BTA.

AbstractEthylenediamine with two −NH2 functional groups was used as a critical complexing agent in chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) slurries for a high carbon chromium GCr15 bearing steel (equivalent to AISI 52100). The polishing performance and corresponding mechanism of −NH2 functional groups were thoroughly investigated as a function of pH. It is revealed that, when polished with ethylenediamine and H2O2-based slurries, the material removal rate (MRR) and surface roughness Ra of GCr15 steel gradually decrease as pH increases. Compared with acidic pH of 4.0, at alkaline pH of 10.0, the surface film of GCr15 steel has much higher corrosion resistance and wear resistance, and thus the material removal caused by the pure corrosion and corrosion-enhanced wear are greatly inhibited, resulting in much lower MRR and Ra. Moreover, it is confirmed that a more protective composite film, consisting of more Fe3+ hydroxides/oxyhydroxides and complex compounds with −NH2 functional groups of ethylenediamine, can be formed at pH of 10.0. Additionally, the polishing performance of pure iron and a medium carbon 45 steel exhibits a similar trend as GCr15 steel. The findings suggest that acidic pH could be feasible for amine groups-based complexing agents to achieve efficient CMP of iron-based metals.
