Nanoindentation techniques were used to determine the hardness of Cu, Ta & W metal discs and thin films on silicon substrates as a function of load or indentation depth. Cu films exposed to oxidizing solutions containing H202 exhibited a higher hardness at the surface while no such change was observed for W exposed to ferric nitrate. The implication of these measurements and their relationship to chemical-mechanical polishing rates are discussed.

ABSTRACTThree chemical processes that occur during the chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) of copper are described in terms of their effect on surface planarity, polish rate, and corrosion resistance of the polished copper. These processes are surface layer formation, dissolution of mechanically abraded copper, and chemical acceleration of the polish rate. The role of these processes is demonstrated with two slurry formulations used in the CMP of copper at Rensselaer.
