Description

  The present invention relates to a substrate (wafer) cleaning technique in manufacturing a semiconductor device or the like.

  In semiconductor devices for networks and digital home appliances, higher performance, higher functionality, and lower power consumption are required. For this reason, circuit patterns are being miniaturized, and accordingly, the particle size that causes a reduction in manufacturing yield is also miniaturized. As a result, a cleaning process intended to remove contaminants such as micronized particles is frequently used, and as a result, the cleaning process accounts for 30 to 40% of the entire semiconductor manufacturing process.

  On the other hand, in the conventional cleaning with the mixed ammonia cleaning agent, the damage to the wafer due to the basicity becomes a problem as the circuit pattern is miniaturized. For this reason, replacement with, for example, a dilute hydrofluoric acid-based cleaning agent with less damage is in progress.

  Thus, although the problem of damage to the wafer due to cleaning has been improved, the problem due to the increase in the aspect ratio of the pattern accompanying the miniaturization of the semiconductor device has become apparent. That is, after cleaning or rinsing, a phenomenon that the pattern collapses when the gas-liquid interface passes through the pattern causes a significant decrease in yield.

  Patent Document 1 discloses a technique for replacing the cleaning liquid from water to 2-propanol before the gas-liquid interface passes through the pattern as a technique for suppressing pattern collapse. However, it is said that there is a limit such that the aspect ratio of the pattern that can be handled is 5 or less.

  Further, Patent Document 2 discloses a technique for a resist pattern as a technique for suppressing pattern collapse. This technique is a technique for suppressing pattern collapse by reducing the capillary force to the limit. However, since the disclosed technique is intended for a resist pattern, it modifies the resist itself, and can be finally removed together with the resist. Therefore, it is necessary to assume a method for removing the treatment agent after drying. Is not applicable to this purpose.

  The present invention relates to a substrate (wafer) cleaning technique for the purpose of improving the manufacturing yield of a device having a circuit pattern that is fine and having a high aspect ratio, particularly in the manufacture of semiconductor devices. The present invention relates to a water-repellent chemical solution and the like intended to improve a cleaning process that easily induces a collapse of a concavo-convex pattern of a wafer having a surface. Patent Documents 4 and 5 describe that annealing treatment is performed to increase the liquid temperature to promote the reaction of the surface treatment agent, but the surface treatment agent is quickly spread over the surface of the object to be treated ( Is not considered at all, and the reaction of the surface treatment agent is accelerated enough to form a water-repellent film even in the middle of the substitution that is not completely substituted, There is room for improvement in reducing the time required for the surface treatment. In addition, Patent Documents 6 to 13 also have room for improvement in reducing the time required for the surface treatment for the same reason. The present invention is effective in preventing the collapse of the concave-convex pattern by forming a water-repellent coating on at least the concave surface of the wafer and reducing the interaction between the liquid held in the concave portion and the concave surface. It is an object of the present invention to provide a cleaning method capable of cleaning a wafer economically and more efficiently without impairing throughput.

The method for cleaning a wafer of the present invention is a method for cleaning a wafer having a concavo-convex pattern on the surface, and at least,
Cleaning the wafer with a cleaning liquid;
A step of replacing the cleaning liquid held in the recesses of the wafer with a water repellent chemical after the cleaning,
A step of drying the wafer;
The cleaning liquid contains 80% by mass or more of a solvent having a boiling point of 55 to 200 ° C.,
The temperature of the water-repellent chemical solution provided in the replacing step is set to 40 ° C. or higher and lower than the boiling point of the water-repellent chemical solution, so that at least the surface of the recess is water-repellent. In the present specification, the boiling point means a value in a state of 1 atm. Further, the boiling point of the water-repellent chemical liquid means the boiling point of the component having the largest amount by mass ratio among the components contained in the water-repellent chemical liquid.

  Pattern collapse occurs when the gas-liquid interface passes through the pattern during drying after the wafer is cleaned with the cleaning liquid. This is said to be caused by a difference in residual liquid height between the portion having a large aspect ratio of the pattern and a portion having a small aspect ratio, thereby causing a difference in capillary force acting on the pattern.

  For this reason, if the capillary force is reduced, it can be expected that the difference in capillary force due to the difference in the residual liquid height will be reduced and the pattern collapse will be eliminated. The magnitude of the capillary force is the absolute value of P obtained by the following formula. From this formula, it is expected that the capillary force can be reduced by reducing γ or cos θ.

P = 2 × γ × cos θ / S
(Wherein γ is the surface tension of the liquid held in the recess, θ is the contact angle between the recess surface and the liquid held in the recess, and S is the width of the recess.)

  The water-repellent chemical solution forms a water-repellent coating on at least the concave surface of the concave / convex pattern, thereby reducing the surface energy of the portion, and mutual (interface) between water or other liquid and the surface of the portion. Actions such as hydrogen bonds and intermolecular forces are reduced. In particular, the effect of reducing the interaction with water is great, but it has the effect of reducing the interaction with a mixed liquid of water and a liquid other than water or a liquid other than water. Thereby, the contact angle of the liquid with respect to the article | item surface can be enlarged.

  As described above, the water-repellent coating is formed on at least the concave surface of the concavo-convex pattern while the cleaning liquid is replaced with the water-repellent chemical liquid and the chemical liquid is held in at least the concave portion of the concavo-convex pattern. For this reason, when the liquid is removed from the concave portion, that is, when dried, the water-repellent coating is formed on at least the concave surface of the concave / convex pattern, so that the capillary force acting on the concave portion is reduced and the pattern collapses. Is less likely to occur.

  Further, in order to form a water-repellent film in a short time on at least the concave surface of the concavo-convex pattern using the water-repellent chemical liquid, the film-forming ability of the chemical liquid is increased, and the cleaning liquid held in the concave section It is effective to replace water with a water-repellent chemical solution quickly.

  When the temperature of the water-repellent chemical solution provided in the replacing step is 40 ° C. or higher, the reaction and adsorption of the water-repellent chemical solution are promoted, and the film-forming ability is increased. As a result, the water-repellent film is formed in a short time. become able to. In addition, a water-repellent film can be sufficiently formed even in the middle of replacement that has not been completely replaced. However, it is not preferable that the temperature of the water-repellent chemical solution is the boiling point of the chemical solution because the chemical solution is likely to evaporate quickly and the wafer surface is easily dried. For this reason, the water-repellent chemical liquid is 40 ° C. or higher, less than the boiling point of the water-repellent chemical liquid, preferably 50 ° C. or higher, (less than (the boiling point of the water-repellent chemical liquid −10 ° C.)), more preferably 70 ° C. or higher. It is made to serve on the wafer surface at a temperature lower than the boiling point of the aqueous chemical solution (-10 ° C.).

  Further, if the cleaning liquid contains 80% by mass or more of a solvent having a boiling point of 55 to 200 ° C., when the water-repellent chemical liquid having a temperature of 40 ° C. or higher is supplied, the cleaning liquid easily evaporates. This cleaning solution is easily replaced with a water-repellent chemical solution in a short time. As a result, a water-repellent film is formed in a short time. Furthermore, when the temperature of the supplied chemical liquid is 40 ° C. or higher and lower than the boiling point of the chemical liquid, diffusion and convection easily occur between the cleaning liquid held in the concave portions of the concave-convex pattern, and as a result. The cleaning liquid can be replaced with a water-repellent chemical liquid in a short time. For this reason, the cleaning liquid particularly preferably contains 80% by mass or more of a solvent having a boiling point of 60 to 180 ° C., and further preferably contains 80% by mass or more of a solvent having a boiling point of 70 to 160 ° C. If the cleaning liquid contains 80% by mass or more of a solvent having a boiling point of less than 55 ° C., a chemical solution having a temperature of 40 ° C. or more and lower than the boiling point of the water repellent chemical solution is used in the step of replacing the cleaning liquid with the water repellent chemical solution. When supplied, the cleaning liquid may bump up or the evaporation speed of the cleaning liquid may become too fast. As a result, there is a risk of damage to the concavo-convex pattern due to generation of bubbles or bumping. Further, when the cleaning liquid contains 80% by mass or more of a solvent having a boiling point exceeding 200 ° C., in the step of replacing the cleaning liquid with a water repellent chemical liquid, a chemical liquid having a temperature of 40 ° C. or higher and lower than the boiling point of the water repellent chemical liquid is used. When supplied, the evaporation of the cleaning liquid is slow, so that the replacement tends to take a long time. As a result, the wafer surface tends to take a long time to develop water repellency. In addition, it is more preferable that the cleaning liquid is a solvent having a boiling point of 55 to 200 ° C., because it becomes easy to control the temperature of the water-repellent chemical liquid for avoiding rapid evaporation of the cleaning liquid, generation of bubbles, and bumping.

  The cleaning liquid is preferably at least one liquid selected from the group consisting of an organic solvent, water, and an aqueous solution in which at least one of an organic solvent, an acid, an alkali, and an oxidizing agent is mixed in water. In addition, an aqueous solution in which at least one of water, water, an organic solvent, an acid, an alkali, and an oxidizing agent is mixed may be hereinafter referred to as an aqueous liquid.

  The water-repellent chemical solution is used by substituting the chemical solution with a cleaning solution in the step of cleaning the wafer on which the uneven pattern is formed. Further, the substituted water repellent chemical liquid may be replaced with another cleaning liquid.

  The water-repellent coating does not necessarily have to be formed continuously, and does not necessarily have to be formed uniformly. However, since it can impart better water repellency, the water-repellent coating can be applied continuously and uniformly. More preferably, it is formed.

The wafer is a wafer containing a silicon element on the surface of the concave portion of the concave / convex pattern (hereinafter sometimes referred to as “silicon-based wafer”), and the water repellent chemical liquid is represented by the following general formula [1].

Moreover, when referring to both the water-repellent chemical liquid for silicon-based wafers and the water-repellent chemical liquid for metal-based wafers, it may be simply referred to as “water-repellent chemical liquid”.

  The cleaning method of the present invention is effective in preventing the collapse of the concavo-convex pattern by forming a water-repellent film on the concave surface of the wafer and reducing the interaction between the liquid held in the concave portion and the concave surface. The water-repellent coating can be formed in a short time. Therefore, the method for producing a wafer having a concavo-convex pattern on the surface, which is performed using the water repellent chemical solution of the present invention, has high productivity.

  When a wafer having a concavo-convex pattern on the surface is washed with various liquids and the liquid is removed by drying or the like, pattern collapse tends to occur when the width of the concave portion is small and the aspect ratio of the convex portion is large. The concavo-convex pattern is defined as shown in FIGS. FIG. 1 shows an example of a schematic view when a wafer 1 whose surface is a surface having a concavo-convex pattern 2 is viewed, and FIG. 2 shows a part of a cross section aa ′ in FIG. 1. .

  FIG. 4 shows a schematic view of a state in which the water repellent chemical liquid 9 is provided to the wafer in which the concave portion 4 holds the cleaning liquid 8. At this time, the recess is replaced with the water repellent chemical 9 from the cleaning liquid 8, but the cleaning liquid 8 contains 80% by mass or more of a solvent having a boiling point of 55 to 200 ° C. Since it is heated to above the boiling point of the water repellent chemical solution at a temperature of 0 ° C. or more, for example, the mixing of the cleaning liquid and the water repellent chemical solution easily proceeds by diffusion or convection as indicated by 10 in the figure. As shown, the evaporation of the cleaning liquid easily proceeds, and as a result, the replacement proceeds in a short time.

  FIG. 5 is a schematic view showing a state in which the concave portion 4 holds the water-repellent chemical liquid 9 and the water-repellent coating 12 is formed in the replacement step. By forming the water-repellent coating 12 on the surface of the recess 4, the surface is water-repellent.

  In the water-repellent chemical solution for a silicon-based wafer, the concentration of the silicon compound B is preferably 0.01 to 20% by mass with respect to 100% by mass of the total amount of the silicon compound A. If the concentration is low, the effect of the silicon compound B is low, which is not preferable. Even if the concentration is excessively high, the effect of the silicon compound B is not improved, and conversely, there is a concern that the surface of the silicon wafer is eroded. Therefore, the concentration of the silicon compound B is particularly preferably 0.05 to 15% by mass with respect to 100% by mass of the total amount of the silicon compound A.

  In the water-repellent chemical solution for a silicon-based wafer, the silicon compound A and the silicon compound B may be diluted with an organic solvent.

More preferably, it is 0.5-50 mass%, More preferably, it is 1-30 mass%. In addition, when the water-repellent chemical liquid for silicon-based wafers is diluted with an organic solvent, the organic solvent may contain a low boiling point, among the components contained in the water-repellent chemical liquid for silicon-based wafers It is important that the boiling point of the component having the largest amount by mass ratio exceeds 40 ° C.

  In addition, if a non-combustible solvent is used for a part or all of the solvent, the water-repellent chemical solution for silicon-based wafers becomes non-flammable or has a high flash point, so that the water-repellent chemical solution for silicon-based wafers is used. This is preferable because the risk of Many halogen-containing solvents are nonflammable, and the nonflammable halogen-containing solvent can be suitably used as a nonflammable organic solvent.

  In addition, it is preferable to use a solvent having a flash point exceeding 70 ° C. as the solvent from the viewpoint of safety in the fire service law.

  According to “International Harmonized System for Classification and Labeling of Chemicals; GHS”, a solvent having a flash point of 93 ° C. or lower is defined as “flammable liquid”. Therefore, even if it is not a nonflammable solvent, if a solvent having a flash point exceeding 93 ° C. is used as the solvent, the flash point of the water repellent chemical solution tends to exceed 93 ° C., and the chemical solution corresponds to “flammable liquid”. Since it becomes difficult, it is more preferable from the viewpoint of safety.

  Also, among lactone solvents, carbonate solvents, and polyhydric alcohol derivatives that do not have an OH group, many of them have high flash points, so the risk of water-repellent chemicals for silicon wafers can be reduced. preferable.

  In the water-repellent chemical solution for silicon-based wafer, the total amount of moisture in the starting material is preferably 5000 ppm by mass or less with respect to the total amount of the starting material. When the total amount of moisture exceeds 5000 ppm by mass, the effect of the silicon compound A is reduced, and it becomes difficult to form the water-repellent coating in a short time. For this reason, the moisture content in the starting material of the water-repellent chemical solution for silicon-based wafers is preferably as small as possible, and is particularly preferably 1000 ppm by mass or less, and more preferably 500 ppm by mass or less.

  Further, it is preferable to use a non-flammable solvent for a part or all of the solvent because the water-repellent chemical solution becomes non-flammable or the flash point becomes high and the risk of the chemical solution decreases. Many halogen-containing solvents are non-flammable, and non-flammable halogen-containing solvents can be suitably used as non-flammable solvents. Water can also be used as a non-flammable solvent.

  In addition, it is preferable to use a solvent having a flash point exceeding 70 ° C. as the solvent from the viewpoint of safety in the fire service law.

  According to “International Harmonized System for Classification and Labeling of Chemicals; GHS”, a solvent having a flash point of 93 ° C. or lower is defined as “flammable liquid”. Therefore, even if it is not a nonflammable solvent, if a solvent having a flash point exceeding 93 ° C. is used as the solvent, the flash point of the water repellent chemical solution tends to exceed 93 ° C., and the chemical solution corresponds to “flammable liquid”. Since it becomes difficult, it is more preferable from the viewpoint of safety.

  In addition, lactone solvents, carbonate solvents, and polyhydric alcohol derivatives are preferred because many of them have a high flash point, so that the risk of the water-repellent chemical solution can be reduced.

  Further, the concentration of at least one compound selected from the group consisting of the compounds represented by the general formulas [6] to [12] and a salt compound thereof in the water-repellent chemical solution for metal wafers is the metal wafer. It is preferable that it is 0.0005-2 mass% with respect to 100 mass% of total amounts of a chemical | medical solution. If it is less than 0.0005% by mass, the effect of imparting water repellency tends to be insufficient, and if it exceeds 2% by mass, it tends to be difficult to dissolve in a solvent. More preferably, it is 0.001-1 mass%, Most preferably, it is 0.0015-0.8 mass%. The water-repellent chemical solution for metal-based wafers may contain an organic solvent having a low boiling point.

It is important that the boiling point is above 40 ° C. The boiling point is more preferably more than 60 ° C., and further preferably more than 80 ° C.

  In addition, as a solvent of the water-repellent chemical solution for metal-based wafers, an OH group is included among hydrocarbons, esters, ethers, ketones, and polyhydric alcohol derivatives, because it can provide more excellent water repellency. Those having no water, water, or a mixture thereof are preferred. Furthermore, in consideration of the displaceability with a cleaning liquid, particularly a cleaning liquid composed of an aqueous liquid, a derivative of a polyhydric alcohol having no OH group, water, or a mixture thereof is preferable.

  In the cleaning method of the present invention, the water-repellent chemical solution, that is, the water-repellent chemical solution for silicon-based wafers or the water-repellent chemical solution for metal-based wafers is set to 40 ° C. or higher. Is preferably 40 ° C. or higher. Although a solvent having a boiling point of less than 40 ° C. may be used, the other solvent having a boiling point of more than 40 ° C. is the component having the largest amount by mass ratio among the components contained in the water-repellent chemical liquid (hereinafter referred to as main component). It may be described as a solvent component). The main solvent component preferably has a boiling point of 50 ° C. or higher, more preferably 70 ° C. or higher.

  Moreover, the said water-repellent chemical | medical solution for silicon wafers may contain an additive etc. other than the silicon compound A represented by the said General formula [1], an acid or a base, and a solvent. Similarly, the water-repellent chemical solution for a metal-based wafer includes at least one compound selected from the group consisting of the compounds represented by the general formulas [6] to [12] and a salt compound thereof, and a solvent. , May contain additives and the like. Examples of the additive include oxidizing agents such as hydrogen peroxide and ozone, and surfactants. In addition, when a part of the concave / convex pattern of the wafer includes a material that does not form a water-repellent coating with the silicon compound A or the compounds represented by the general formulas [6] to [12], the material is repellent. You may add what can form an aqueous film. Further, in the water-repellent chemical solution for silicon-based wafer, other acid may be added for the purpose other than obtaining the silicon compound B.

  In the present invention, the cleaning method of the wafer is not particularly limited as long as the water-repellent chemical liquid or the cleaning liquid can be held in at least the concave portion of the concave / convex pattern of the wafer. As a wafer cleaning method, a wafer cleaning method represented by spin cleaning in which a wafer is cleaned one by one by supplying liquid to the vicinity of the rotation center while rotating the wafer while holding the wafer substantially horizontal, or a plurality of cleaning methods in the cleaning tank. One example is a batch system in which a single wafer is immersed and washed. The form of the water-repellent chemical liquid or cleaning liquid when supplying the water-repellent chemical liquid or cleaning liquid to at least the concave portion of the concave / convex pattern of the wafer is not particularly limited as long as it becomes a liquid when held in the concave portion. For example, there are liquid, vapor and the like.

  The wafer containing silicon element on the concave surface of the concave / convex pattern is formed, for example, by forming at least one component selected from silicon, silicon oxide, and silicon nitride on at least the concave surface of the wafer, or forming the concave / convex pattern. Sometimes, at least the surface of the recess is at least one component selected from silicon, silicon oxide, and silicon nitride. In addition, at least one component selected from silicon, silicon oxide, and silicon nitride is formed on at least a part of the concave surface of the wafer, or when the concave / convex pattern is formed, at least a part of the concave surface is silicon. , Silicon oxide, and silicon nitride may be used as at least one component. In this case, a water-repellent film is formed on at least one surface selected from silicon, silicon oxide, and silicon nitride present on at least a part of the concave surface by the water-repellent chemical solution for silicon-based wafers. Accordingly, the water repellent coating may be formed on at least a part of the concave surface of the wafer.

A wafer having at least one element of titanium, tungsten, aluminum, copper, tin, tantalum, and ruthenium on the surface of the concave portion of the concave / convex pattern is a silicon wafer, silicon and / or silicon oxide (SiO ₂ ). The surface of wafers, silicon carbide wafers, sapphire wafers, various compound semiconductor wafers, plastic wafers, and the like composed of a plurality of components containing tantalum, materials containing titanium elements such as titanium, titanium nitride, and titanium oxide, or tungsten A substance containing a tungsten element such as tungsten oxide, a substance containing an aluminum element such as aluminum or aluminum oxide, a substance containing a copper element such as copper or copper oxide, a substance containing a tin element such as tin or tin oxide, tantalum nitride, Substances containing tantalum elements such as tantalum oxide Alternatively, a material coated with a layer containing a ruthenium element such as ruthenium or ruthenium oxide, or a multilayer film formed on a wafer, at least one of which is a layer containing a material containing the metal-based element, etc. For example, the concavo-convex pattern forming step is performed in a layer including a layer of a substance including the metal-based element. In addition, when the concavo-convex pattern is formed, at least a part of the surface of the concavo-convex pattern includes a material having at least one element among the metal-based elements.

  In addition, even on a wafer composed of a plurality of components including a substance having at least one element among the metal-based elements, the metal is formed on the surface of the substance having at least one element among the metal-based elements. A water-repellent coating can be formed with a water-repellent chemical solution for a wafer. The wafer composed of the plurality of components is a wafer in which a substance having at least one element among metal elements is formed on at least a part of the concave surface, or at least the concave surface when a concave / convex pattern is formed. A part of which becomes a substance having at least one element among metal-based elements is also included. In addition, it is the surface of the substance part which has at least 1 sort (s) of element in the said uneven | corrugated pattern that can form a water-repellent film with the water-repellent chemical solution for metal-based wafers of the present invention. Therefore, the water-repellent coating may be formed on at least a part of the concave surface of the metal wafer with the water-repellent chemical solution for metal wafer.

The cleaning method of the present invention is particularly preferably
(Step 1) A step of providing an aqueous liquid to the surface after making the wafer surface a surface having an uneven pattern, and holding the aqueous liquid in at least a recess of the uneven pattern;
(Step 2) A step of replacing the liquid held in at least the concave portion of the concave-convex pattern with a cleaning liquid containing 80% by mass or more of a solvent having a boiling point of 55 to 200 ° C.,
(Step 3) A step of replacing the cleaning liquid with a water-repellent chemical solution and holding the chemical solution in at least the concave portion of the concave-convex pattern,
(Step 4) A step of removing liquid from the surface of the concavo-convex pattern by drying,
(Step 5) A step of removing the water-repellent film is included.

  First, as described in the above (Step 1), the aqueous liquid is held in at least the concave portion of the concave-convex pattern. Examples of acids that can be mixed with the aqueous liquid include inorganic acids and organic acids. Examples of inorganic acids include hydrofluoric acid, buffered hydrofluoric acid, sulfuric acid, nitric acid, hydrochloric acid, phosphoric acid, etc. Examples of organic acids include methanesulfonic acid, benzenesulfonic acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid, trifluoromethanesulfonic acid , Acetic acid, trifluoroacetic acid, pentafluoropropionic acid and the like. Examples of the alkali that may be mixed in the cleaning liquid include ammonia and choline. Examples of the oxidizing agent that may be mixed with the cleaning liquid include ozone and hydrogen peroxide.

  Next, as described in the above (Step 2), the liquid held in the concave portion is replaced with a cleaning liquid containing 80% by mass or more of a solvent having a boiling point of 55 to 200 ° C. Note that the liquid held in the concave portion before the replacement may be the aqueous liquid or a rinsing liquid A described later.

  The cleaning liquid is preferably at least one liquid selected from the group consisting of an organic solvent, water, and an aqueous solution in which at least one of an organic solvent, an acid, an alkali, and an oxidizing agent is mixed in water.

  In addition, when preparing the said washing | cleaning liquid containing the organic solvent whose boiling point is less than 55 degreeC, the organic solvent whose boiling point is less than 55 degreeC, and the organic solvent whose boiling point is 55-200 degreeC are mixed, and the obtained mixture The cleaning liquid is prepared such that the liquid contains 80% by mass or more of a solvent having a boiling point of 55 to 200 ° C. Moreover, when preparing the said washing | cleaning liquid containing the organic solvent whose boiling point exceeds 200 degreeC, the organic solvent whose boiling point exceeds 200 degreeC, and the organic solvent whose boiling point is 55-200 degreeC are mixed, and the mixture obtained The cleaning liquid is prepared such that the liquid contains 80% by mass or more of a solvent having a boiling point of 55 to 200 ° C.

  The cleaning liquid is preferably an organic solvent, water, or a mixture of water and an organic solvent from the viewpoint of cleanliness. Furthermore, it is preferable that the cleaning liquid is an organic solvent because the water-repellent chemical liquid can be provided to the recess without being brought into contact with water. In particular, it is preferable that the organic solvent contains a water-soluble organic solvent (solubility with respect to 100 parts by mass of water is 5 parts by mass or more) because it can be easily replaced from an aqueous liquid.

  In addition, after the step (step 1) of holding the aqueous liquid in the concave portion, the aqueous liquid held in at least the concave portion of the concave / convex pattern may be referred to as a liquid different from the liquid (hereinafter referred to as rinse liquid A). ), The process may be shifted to the step of replacing with the cleaning liquid (step 2).

  A plurality of liquids may be substituted for the rinse liquid A. For example, the rinsing liquid A can be used after being substituted with water and further substituted with an organic solvent (preferably containing a water-soluble organic solvent).

  Next, as described in the above (Step 3), the water-repellent chemical solution is held in at least the concave portion of the concavo-convex pattern, and the water-repellent coating film is formed on the concave surface of the concave-convex pattern of the wafer by the water-repellent chemical solution. The temperature of the water-repellent chemical solution provided in the replacing step is 40 ° C. or higher and lower than the boiling point of the water-repellent chemical solution.

When the water-repellent film is formed on the concave surface of the concave / convex pattern of the wafer by a water-repellent chemical solution, the pattern collapse occurs when the contact angle is 50 to 130 ° when water is assumed to be retained on the surface. It is preferable because it is difficult. Further, the closer the contact angle is to 90 °, the smaller the capillary force acting on the recess and the more difficult the pattern collapse occurs. The capillary force is preferably 2.1 MN / m ² or less. It is preferable that the capillary force is 2.1 MN / m ² or less because pattern collapse hardly occurs. Also, when the capillary force is small, the collapse is further difficult to occur pattern, capillary force is particularly preferably 1.5Mn / ^{m 2} or less, more preferably 1.0 MN / ^{m 2} or less. Furthermore, it is ideal to adjust the contact angle with the liquid to around 90 ° so that the capillary force is as close as possible to 0.0 MN / m ² .

  Next, as described in the above (Step 4), a step of removing the liquid from the surface of the concavo-convex pattern by drying is performed. In this step, the liquid held on the uneven pattern surface is removed by drying. The drying is preferably performed by a known drying method such as a spin drying method, IPA (2-propanol) vapor drying, Marangoni drying, heat drying, air blowing drying, hot air drying, or vacuum drying.

  In addition, after the step (Step 3) of holding the water-repellent chemical liquid in at least the concave portion of the concavo-convex pattern, the water-repellent chemical liquid held in at least the concave portion of the concavo-convex pattern is a liquid different from the chemical liquid (hereinafter referred to as the rinse liquid B). After substituting (which may be described), the process may be transferred to a step of removing the liquid from the surface of the concavo-convex pattern by drying (step 4).

  Further, as the rinsing liquid B, a plurality of cleaning liquids may be substituted and used. For example, the rinsing liquid B can be used after being replaced with an organic solvent (preferably containing a water-soluble organic solvent) and then with an aqueous liquid.

  Examples of the rinsing liquid A and the rinsing liquid B include water, an organic solvent, a mixture of water and an organic solvent, a mixture of at least one of an acid, an alkali, and a surfactant, or a combination thereof. From the group consisting of the silicon compound A, the silicon compound A and an acid or base, and the compounds represented by the general formulas [6] to [12] and salts thereof, which may be used in the water-repellent chemical liquid. Examples include those in which at least one selected compound is added so as to have a concentration lower than that of the water-repellent chemical solution.

  Examples of the organic solvent that is one of the preferred examples of the cleaning liquid, the rinsing liquid A, and the rinsing liquid B include hydrocarbons, esters, ethers, ketones, halogen-containing solvents, sulfoxide solvents, Examples include alcohols, polyhydric alcohol derivatives, nitrogen element-containing solvents, and the like.

  Specific examples of the organic solvent include organic solvents that may be used for dilution in the water-repellent chemical solution for silicon-based wafers, and organic solvents that are used in the water-repellent chemical solution for metal-based wafers.

  When the liquid is removed from the surface of the concavo-convex pattern, the liquid held on the surface may be the water repellent chemical liquid, the rinse liquid B, and a mixture thereof. The liquid mixture containing the water-repellent chemical liquid may be a liquid in the middle of replacing the water-repellent chemical liquid with the rinse liquid B, or the water-repellent chemical liquid is mixed in advance with the rinse liquid B different from the water-repellent chemical liquid. A mixed solution obtained in this manner may be used. Further, after the liquid is once removed from the surface of the concave / convex pattern, the rinse liquid B or the mixed liquid may be held on the surface of the concave / convex pattern and then dried. When the liquid is removed from the surface of the concavo-convex pattern, the water-repellent coating is present on the surface of the concave portion, so that the capillary force applied to the concave portion is reduced and the pattern collapse hardly occurs.

  In addition, in the process (process 4) of removing a liquid from the uneven | corrugated pattern surface by drying, the liquid removed from the uneven | corrugated pattern surface is water, the said organic solvent, or those mixtures among the said rinse liquid B. It is preferable because the surface of the wafer hardly remains after drying. Further, an aqueous liquid, particularly water, is preferable because the contact angle θ with the liquid on the concave surface of the concave-convex pattern made water-repellent by the water-repellent chemical liquid is increased, and the capillary force P acting on the concave is reduced. .

  Note that the cleaning liquid, the rinsing liquid A, and the rinsing liquid B may also be held at a temperature of 10 ° C. or higher and lower than the boiling point of the liquid. For example, as the rinsing liquid A, a solution containing an acidic aqueous solution, particularly preferably an acidic aqueous solution and an organic solvent having a boiling point of 100 ° C. or higher is used, and when the temperature of the rinsing liquid A is increased near the boiling point of the rinsing liquid A, The water repellent coating is preferable because it can be easily formed in a short time.

  Next, as described in the above (Step 5), a step of removing the water-repellent coating is performed. When removing the water-repellent coating, it is effective to cut the C—C bond and C—F bond in the water-repellent coating. The method is not particularly limited as long as it can cut the bond, for example, irradiating the wafer surface with light, heating the wafer, exposing the wafer to ozone, irradiating the wafer surface with plasma, For example, corona discharge on the wafer surface may be mentioned.

When the water-repellent coating is removed by light irradiation, the energy is equivalent to 340 nm and 240 nm which are energy equivalent to 83 kcal / mol and 116 kcal / mol which are binding energy of C—C bond and C—F bond in the water-repellent coating. It is preferable to irradiate ultraviolet rays including a short wavelength. As this light source, a metal halide lamp, a low-pressure mercury lamp, a high-pressure mercury lamp, an excimer lamp, a carbon arc, or the like is used. If the ultraviolet irradiation intensity is a metal halide lamp, for example, measurement with an illuminometer (irradiance intensity meter UM-10 manufactured by Konica Minolta Sensing, light receiving unit UM-360 [peak sensitivity wavelength: 365 nm, measurement wavelength range: 310 to 400 nm]) 100 mW / cm ² or more is preferable in value, 200 mW / cm ² or more is particularly preferable. When the irradiation intensity is less than 100 mW / cm ² , it takes a long time to remove the water-repellent coating. In addition, a low-pressure mercury lamp is preferable because it can irradiate ultraviolet rays having a shorter wavelength, so that the water-repellent coating can be removed in a short time even if the irradiation intensity is low.

  Further, when the water-repellent coating is removed by light irradiation, ozone is generated at the same time as the components of the water-repellent coating are decomposed by ultraviolet rays, and the components of the water-repellent coating are oxidized and volatilized by the ozone. Is particularly preferable. As this light source, a low-pressure mercury lamp or an excimer lamp is used. Further, the wafer may be heated while irradiating light.

  When the wafer is heated, the wafer is heated at 400 to 700 ° C, preferably 500 to 700 ° C. This heating time is preferably 0.5 to 60 minutes, preferably 1 to 30 minutes. In this process, ozone exposure, plasma irradiation, corona discharge, etc. may be used in combination. Further, light irradiation may be performed while heating the wafer.

  When the wafer is exposed to ozone, it is preferable that ozone generated by ultraviolet irradiation with a low-pressure mercury lamp or the like or low-temperature discharge with a high voltage is provided on the wafer surface. The wafer may be irradiated with light while being exposed to ozone, or may be heated.

  In the step of removing the water-repellent film on the wafer surface, the water-repellent film on the wafer surface can be efficiently removed by combining the light irradiation, heating, ozone exposure, plasma irradiation, corona discharge, and the like. .

Making the surface of the wafer a surface having a concavo-convex pattern is a technique that has been variously studied in other literatures and has already been established. Therefore, in the present invention, surface treatment of a wafer using the water-repellent chemical solution The evaluation was conducted mainly. Also, the following formula
P = 2 × γ × cos θ / S
(Where γ is the surface tension of the liquid held in the recess, θ is the contact angle between the surface of the recess and the liquid held in the recess, and S is the width of the recess). Greatly depends on the contact angle of the liquid held on the wafer surface, that is, the contact angle of the liquid droplet and the surface tension of the liquid. In the case of a liquid held in the concave portion 4 of the concave / convex pattern 2, the contact angle of the liquid droplet and the capillary force acting on the concave portion, which can be considered as equivalent to pattern collapse, have a correlation. The capillary force may be derived from the evaluation of the contact angle of the droplet of the water repellent coating 12. In the examples, water, which is a typical aqueous liquid, was used as the liquid.

  However, in the case of a wafer having a concavo-convex pattern on the surface, the contact angle of the water-repellent coating 12 itself formed on the concavo-convex pattern surface cannot be accurately evaluated.

  The contact angle of water droplets is evaluated by dropping several μl of water droplets on the sample (base material) surface as in JIS R 3257 “Test method for wettability of substrate glass surface”, and the angle between the water droplet and the substrate surface. It is made by measuring. However, in the case of a wafer having a pattern, the contact angle becomes very large. This is because a Wenzel effect and a Cassie effect occur, and the contact angle is affected by the surface shape (roughness) of the substrate, and the apparent contact angle of water droplets increases.

  Therefore, in this embodiment, the water-repellent chemical solution is applied to a wafer having a smooth surface, a water-repellent film is formed on the wafer surface, and the water-repellent film is formed on the surface of the wafer 1 on which the uneven pattern 2 is formed. Various evaluations were made considering the formed water-repellent coating 12. In this example, as a silicon wafer having a smooth surface, a “wafer with a thermal oxide film” having a smooth thermal oxide film layer on a smooth silicon wafer, a smooth wafer on a silicon wafer having a smooth surface. A “wafer with a silicon nitride film” having a silicon nitride layer was used. In addition, as a metal wafer with a smooth surface, a “wafer with a titanium nitride film” having a titanium nitride layer on a silicon wafer with a smooth surface, and a “wafer with a tungsten film” having a tungsten layer on a silicon wafer with a smooth surface. In addition, a “wafer with a ruthenium film” having a ruthenium layer on a silicon wafer having a smooth surface was used.

  In the cleaning method in which the liquid is supplied to the wafer while rotating the wafer, it is extremely difficult to strictly reproduce the replacement state from the cleaning liquid to the water-repellent chemical liquid.In this embodiment, the wafer immersed in the cleaning liquid is The substitution state was accurately reproduced by immersing in a water repellent chemical solution while the cleaning solution was held on the wafer surface. Moreover, the water-repellent state (water-repellent coating state) of the wafer when the degree of progress of substitution was changed was evaluated by changing the immersion time in the water-repellent chemical solution.

  Details are described below. In the following, a method for evaluating a wafer provided with a water-repellent chemical solution, preparation of the water-repellent chemical solution, and an evaluation result after providing the water-repellent chemical solution to a wafer will be described.

[Evaluation method of wafer provided with water repellent chemical]
The following evaluations (1) to (2) were performed as methods for evaluating a wafer provided with a water-repellent chemical solution.

(1) Contact angle evaluation of the water-repellent coating formed on the wafer surface About 2 μl of pure water is placed on the wafer surface on which the water-repellent coating is formed, and the angle (contact angle) between the water droplet and the wafer surface is measured as a contact angle meter. (Measured by Kyowa Interface Science: CA-X type). This measurement was performed at five locations on the wafer surface, and the average value was calculated.

(2) Evaluation of capillary force P was calculated using the following equation, and the capillary force (absolute value of P) was determined.
P = 2 × γ × cos θ / S
(Wherein γ is the surface tension of the liquid held in the recess, θ is the contact angle between the recess surface and the liquid held in the recess, and S is the width of the recess.)

In the present embodiment, as an example of the pattern shape, a line-and-space pattern wafer having a line width (recessed portion width) of 45 nm is assumed. In a pattern with a recess width of 45 nm, the pattern tends to collapse when the cleaning liquid is water when the gas-liquid interface passes through the irregular pattern, and the pattern tends not to collapse when 2-propanol is used. When the width of the recess is 45 nm and the wafer surface is silicon oxide, the capillary force is 0.98 MN / m ² when the cleaning liquid is 2-propanol (surface tension: 22 mN / m, contact angle with respect to the silicon oxide surface: 1 °). . On the other hand, the capillary force is 3.2 MN / m ^{2 in} water (surface tension: 72 mN / m, contact angle with silicon oxide: 2.5 °) having the largest surface tension among liquids excluding mercury. When the wafer surface is, for example, titanium nitride, tungsten, or ruthenium, the contact angle of 2-propanol with respect to the surface is 0.5 °, and the contact angle of water is also 2 °. The same is true for substances containing other titanium elements, tungsten elements, and ruthenium elements (eg, titanium, titanium oxide, tungsten oxide, ruthenium oxide, etc.). In the case of a wafer with a titanium nitride film, a wafer with a tungsten film, or a wafer with a ruthenium film having a recess width of 45 nm, the capillary force is 0.98 MN / m ² when the cleaning liquid is 2-propanol (surface tension: 22 mN / m). It becomes. On the other hand, the capillary force is 3.2 MN / m ^{2 in} water (surface tension: 72 mN / m) having the largest surface tension among liquids excluding mercury.

(3) Replacing wafer surface cleaning liquid with water-repellent chemical liquid The water-repellent chemical liquid prepared in “(2) Preparation of water-repellent chemical liquid” was heated to 40 ° C. and prepared in “(1) Cleaning of wafer” above. The wafer with the thermal oxide film was immersed in the chemical solution for various times (5, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60 sec), and the cleaning solution was replaced to form a water repellent coating. Thereafter, the wafer with the thermal oxide film was pulled up from the chemical solution and immersed in iPA for 60 seconds as a rinse solution, and then immersed in pure water for 60 seconds.
(4) Drying of wafer Finally, the wafer with the thermal oxide film was taken out from the pure water, air was blown and blown dry to remove the pure water on the surface.

The obtained wafer with a thermal oxide film was evaluated in the manner described in the above-mentioned “Evaluation method of wafer provided with water-repellent chemical solution”, and the contact angle of the wafer with the thermal oxide film after the surface treatment was 75 ° or more and 80 °. The surface treatment time required for the above and 85 ° or more (that is, the capillary force is 0.8 MN / m ² or less, 0.6 MN / m ² or less, and 0.3 MN / m ² or less, respectively) (Replacement time) was examined.
