Embodiment 1

[0102] The covered PVD copper wafer was immersed in a solution consisting of a base solution containing TMAH, 1-amino-2-propanol and different antioxidants, and the corrosion rate of copper was determined using a potentiostat, where PVD Cu was the working electrode , the Pt sieve is the counter electrode, and the Ag / AgCl electrode is the reference electrode. The anodic corrosion rate of copper was calculated at an anodic voltage bias of 0.1 to 1.0 V compared to the open circuit potential. The results are summarized in Table 1 below.

[0103]

[0104] It can be seen that adenosine significantly reduces the corrosion rate of copper. Other advantages include, but are not limited to, minimized copper roughness, and stabilization of the copper(I) oxide surface after residue removal.

Abstract

An cleaning composition and process for cleaning post-chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) residue and contaminants from a microelectronic device having said residue and contaminants thereon. The cleaning compositions include novel corrosion inhibitors. The composition achieves highly efficacious cleaning of the post-CMP residue and contaminant material from the surface of the microelectronic device without compromising the low-k dielectric material or the copper interconnect material.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention generally relates to compositions containing antioxidants for removing residues and / or contaminants from microelectronic devices having residues and / or contaminants thereon. Background technique [0002] Microelectronic device wafers are used to form integrated circuits. A microelectronic device wafer comprises a substrate, such as silicon, in which are patterned regions for depositing different materials, which have insulating, conducting, or semiconducting properties. [0003] In order to obtain correct patterning, excess material used in forming the layers on the substrate must be removed. Furthermore, in order to fabricate functional and reliable circuits, it is important to prepare flat or planar microelectronic wafer surfaces prior to subsequent processing. Thus, it is necessary to remove and / or polish certain surfaces of the microelectronic device wafer. [0004] Chemical mechanical polishing or planarization ("CMP") is ...
