Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) We evaluated the impact of process damage caused by dry or sputtering on chemical mechanical planarization (CMP) with Cu/low-k structures. We revealed that dry process drastically decreased C-H/C-C bonding in low-k films, and CMP mechanism of the low-k film was completely different between with and without dry processing. Although CMP slurry for low-k films usually contains surfactant to promote CMP removal rate of hydrophobic low-k surface, the C-H/C-C decrease of the low-k film significantly changes the absorption model of the surfactant. Moreover, during fabrication of Cu wiring, carbon missing inhomogeneously occurs within the low-k film. Thus, slurry design considering C-H/C-C missing in low-k films is a clue for successful fabrication.
