- a tantalum metal, a titanium metal, or the like is used.
- these barrier metals have low adhesion to copper-based metals. Therefore, instead of directly forming the wiring part on the barrier metal, in order to maintain the adhesion between the copper-based metal and the barrier metal, a copper-based metal thin film (copper seed layer) called a seed layer is provided after the copper-based metal is provided. It is common to deposit metal. That is, as shown in FIG.
- the insulating material 1 having a recess on the surface
- the barrier metal 4 provided on the insulating material 1 so as to follow the surface shape of the insulating material 1

That is, a method using a ruthenium metal as a seed layer replacing a copper metal, or a method of providing a ruthenium metal between a seed layer using a copper metal and a barrier metal has been proposed.

- Examples 3, 5, and 6 show the evaluation results when the pH is different. From these evaluation results, it is understood that the dishing amount can be reduced while maintaining the ruthenium polishing rate high by adjusting the pH to 3.0 or more and less than 7.0.
- the content of the quaternary phosphonium salt is different.
- the Cu etching rate is reduced, and the Cu etching rate is further reduced when the content of the quaternary phosphonium salt is 0.005 mass%.
- Examples 3 and 8 show the evaluation results when phosphoric acid and nitric acid are used as acid components, respectively. In either case, the ruthenium polishing rate is good.
- Examples 9 to 18 show the evaluation results when various acid components specified in the present application are used. In either case, the ruthenium polishing rate is good.
- Comparative Example 1 From the results of Comparative Example 1, it can be seen that when the pH is 2.5, the Cu polishing rate, Cu etching rate, and dishing amount are large. From the results of Comparative Example 2, it can be seen that if the polishing liquid does not contain a triazole compound, the Cu polishing rate, the Cu etching rate, and the dishing amount are large. From the results of Comparative Example 3, it can be seen that when the pH is 7.0, the ruthenium polishing rate is low. From the results of Comparative Examples 4, 6, and 7, it can be seen that the ruthenium polishing rate is low when the predetermined acid component of the present application is not used. From the results of Comparative Example 5, it can be seen that if the polishing liquid does not contain a quaternary phosphonium salt, the Cu polishing rate, the Cu etching rate, and the dishing amount are large.
- the ruthenium-based metal polishing rate can be improved and the wiring metal dishing can be suppressed as compared with the case where a conventional CMP polishing liquid is used.

Abstract
Description
本実施形態に係るCMP用研磨液は、ルテニウム系金属を研磨するためのCMP用研磨液である。本実施形態に係るCMP用研磨液は、(a)CMP用研磨液中において負のゼータ電位を有する研磨粒子(砥粒)と、(b)無機酸、モノカルボン酸、複数のカルボキシル基を有し且つ水酸基を有さないカルボン酸、及び、これらの塩からなる群より選ばれる少なくとも一種を含む酸成分と、(c)酸化剤と、(d)トリアゾール系化合物と、(e)第四級ホスホニウム塩と、(f)水と、を含有する。本実施形態に係るCMP用研磨液のpHは3.0以上7.0未満である。
一般に、研磨粒子は所定の硬度を有するため、その硬度に起因する機械的作用が研磨の進行に寄与する。本実施形態に係るCMP用研磨液において使用される研磨粒子は、pHが3.0以上7.0未満であるCMP用研磨液中において負(マイナス)のゼータ電位を有している(すなわち、ゼータ電位が0mVより小さい)。これにより、ルテニウム系金属の研磨速度が向上する。この理由は明確ではないが、研磨粒子が負のゼータ電位を有することで、研磨粒子とルテニウム系金属とが静電的に吸引しあう相互作用が発現し、ルテニウム系金属の研磨速度が向上すると考えられる。
本実施形態に係るCMP用研磨液は、ルテニウム系金属の研磨速度を向上させる目的で、無機酸成分(無機酸、無機酸塩等)及び有機酸成分(有機酸、有機酸塩等)からなる群より選ばれる少なくとも一種を含む酸成分を含有し、具体的には、無機酸、モノカルボン酸(一つのカルボキシル基を有するカルボン酸)、複数のカルボキシル基を有し且つ水酸基を有さないカルボン酸、及び、これらの塩からなる群より選ばれる少なくとも一種を含む酸成分を含有する。前記特定の酸成分がルテニウム系金属と反応し錯体を形成することで、ルテニウム系金属に対する高い研磨速度が得られると考えられる。研磨対象の基体がルテニウム系金属以外のバリア金属等を有する場合、前記特定の酸成分は、このような金属の研磨速度を高めることもできる。
本実施形態に係るCMP用研磨液は、金属の酸化剤(以下、単に「酸化剤」という)を含有する。酸化剤としては、前記酸成分に該当する化合物を除く。
本実施形態に係るCMP用研磨液は、ルテニウム系金属の研磨速度を向上させると共に配線金属のディッシングを抑制する目的で、防食剤としてトリアゾール系化合物を含有する。トリアゾール系化合物としては、防食剤又は保護膜形成剤として公知の化合物を特に制限なく使用できる。
本実施形態に係るCMP用研磨液は、配線金属のエッチング速度及び研磨速度を抑制することにより配線金属のディッシングを抑制する目的で、第四級ホスホニウム塩を含有する。第四級ホスホニウム塩が配線金属に対する防食効果(ディッシングの抑制効果)を有する理由は確かではないが、第四級ホスホニウム塩のリン原子が配線金属に配位し、第四級ホスホニウム塩の疎水基が配線金属の表面を覆うためと考えられる。
本実施形態に係るCMP用研磨液は、ルテニウム系金属以外のバリア金属等の金属材料の研磨速度を高める目的で、金属溶解剤を更に含有できる。このような金属溶解剤としては、金属材料と反応し錯体を形成する化合物であれば特に制限はないが、前記酸成分に該当する化合物を除く。金属溶解剤としては、リンゴ酸、酒石酸、クエン酸等の有機酸、これらの有機酸の有機酸エステル、及び、これら有機酸のアンモニウム塩などが挙げられる。
本実施形態に係るCMP用研磨液は、ルテニウム系金属以外のバリア金属又は配線金属等の金属材料が過度に研磨されることを抑制するために、金属防食剤(前記トリアゾール系化合物を除く)を更に含有できる。
本実施形態に係るCMP用研磨液は、水溶性ポリマーを更に含有できる。CMP用研磨液が水溶性ポリマーを含有することにより、荷重下での交換電流密度を向上させることができると共に、非荷重下での交換電流密度を低下させることができる。この原理に関しては現在明確にはなっていない。
