[0082] pair on glass substrate thick Cu alloy (Cu-Mg-Al), After forming a thick Cu film, a protective layer pattern was formed and dipped in the etching solution shown in Tables 1 to 4 at a liquid temperature of 30° C. for 1.5 times the appropriate etching time. Then, it was washed with water, dried, and the residue was evaluated. Moreover, the persulfuric acid solution uses LD100 produced by DuPont (referred to as KHSO 5 solution as the main component).

Abstract

The invention aims to provide an etching solution composition and an etching method for copper and copper alloy. A metal laminated film containing a copper layer and a copper oxide layer and / or a copper alloy layer is etched by the etching solution composition with good precision, thereby forming an excellent sectional shape, realizing excellent practicability and stability and achieving long service lifetime. The etching solution composition is used to etch the metal laminated film containing the copper layer and the copper oxide layer and / or the copper alloy layer. In addition, the etching solution composition contains 0.1-80 wt% of persulfate solution and / or persulfuric acid solution, 0.1-80 wt% of phosphoric acid and 0.1-50 wt% of nitric acid and / or sulfuric acid and is further added with chloride ions and ammonium ions, thereby making it easy to control the etching rate and the sectional shape.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an etchant composition for etching a metal laminate film of copper and a copper alloy containing copper as a main component, which is used in the manufacture of flat panel displays and the like, and an etching method using the etchant. Background technique [0002] In the past, aluminum thin films have been used as fine wiring materials for liquid crystal display devices. However, copper or copper have not been used until recently in order to form line widths of several micrometers or less for driving transistor electrodes (move transistor electrodes) and fine patterns of flat panel displays. Copper alloy with copper as the main component. For this reason, the etching technology for copper thin films with a line width of several micrometers or less, which is suitable for flat plate manufacturing, has been limited until now. [0003] In the case of using a copper thin film as an electrode, copper is not used as a single...
