过氧化氢抛光液体系中钌的化学机械抛光研究

Chemical Mechanical Planarization of Ruthenium in Hydrogen Peroxide-Based Slurry

  • 摘要: 本文研究了过氧化氢(H2O2)抛光液体系中金属钌的化学机械抛光行为,采用电化学分析方法和X射线光电子能谱仪(XPS)分析了氧化剂和络合剂对腐蚀效果的影响,利用原子力显微镜(AFM)观察抛光表面的微观形貌.结果表明:在过氧化氢抛光液体系中,金属钌表面钝化膜的致密度和厚度与醋酸(CH3COOH)和H2O2的浓度有关.抛光液中醋酸主要通过促进阳极反应的进行从而增强抛光液对金属钌的化学作用,CH3COOH作为络合剂比三乙醇胺(TEA)或酒石酸(C4H6O6)得到的抛光速率更高.低浓度H2O2通过增强抛光液对金属钌的化学腐蚀,抛光速率增大,较高浓度H2O2可能通过在金属表面形成较厚的氧化膜,抛光速率下降.XPS图谱说明钌片浸泡在含醋酸介质过氧化氢体系抛光液后,钌、氧原子相对含量之比约为2∶3,而且金属钌被氧化到四价和八价,这可能是因为金属钌表面生成RuO2和RuO4.抛光后的金属钌表面在5 μm×5 μm范围内平均粗糙度Sa由抛光前的33 nm降至6.99 nm.

     

    Abstract: In this paper, chemical mechanical polishing behaviors of Ruthenium(Ru) in hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-based slurry are investigated. The effect of the oxidizing agent and complexing agents on the corrosion behaviors are investigated by using electrochemical measurement and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. And the polished Ru surface is characterized by atomic force microscopy. Results show that the tightness and thickness of the passive film on the surface of Ru are related to the concentrations of CH3COOH and H2O2. CH3COOH can accelerate the anode reaction and enhance the chemical action of the slurry on the surface of Ru. The material removal rate (MRR) of Ru in slurries with CH3COOH as complexing agent is higher than that of TEA or C4H6O6. H2O2 at low concentration promotes the chemical corrosion ability to corrode Ru surface and increases MRR, the increasing of H2O2 concentration may promote the formation of a thick oxide film on Ru surface, which reduces the corrosion rate and the MRR at higher concentration of H2O2. The XPS results suggest that the atomic ratio of Ru to oxide is about 2: 3 and Ru is oxidized to Ru4+ and Ru8+ just after the immersion of Ru into the H2O2-based slurry with CH3COOH because of the formation of RuO2 and RuO4 on the Ru surface. The roughness average (Sa) of Ru surface can be reduced from 33 nm to 6.99 nm after polished within 5 μm×5 μm area.
