従来のエッチング液を用いると、例えば、バンプ構造を有する半導体基板の銅、銅合金などを含む層の主として端部などが過剰にエッチングされ、アンダーカットが生じるといった問題が生じ得る。そこで、銅を含む層を選択的にエッチング可能であり、なおかつアンダーカットを抑制する性能に優れたエッチング用の水性組成物の提供が求められている。

水性組成物は、優れたアンダーカット抑制効果を奏する。具体的には、銅よりもイオン化傾向の大きい金属、例えばニッケル、またはニッケル合金を含むめっき層の下側、すなわち基板側に形成された銅または銅合金を含み、例えば実質的には銅合金によって形成されたシード層に対して、主として端部が過剰にエッチングされてしまうアンダーカットを効率的に防止できる。具体的には、後述する測定方法において、アンダーカットを1.5μm以下に抑えることができ、より好ましくは1.0μm以下に抑えることができ、さらに好ましくは、0.7μm以下に抑えることが可能である。
The aqueous composition has an excellent effect of suppressing undercut. Specifically, it can efficiently prevent undercut, which is mainly caused by excessive etching of the ends of a seed layer that contains copper or a copper alloy and is formed on the underside of a plating layer containing a metal with a greater ionization tendency than copper, such as nickel or a nickel alloy, i.e., on the substrate side, and is essentially made of a copper alloy.

<2.エッチング方法>
本発明のエッチング方法は、主として半導体基板を対象とする方法であり、上述の水性組成物を用いて、銅を含む半導体基板のシード層を有する中間製品のシード層をエッチングする工程を含む。エッチング方法の対象とされる半導体基板は、上述のシード層に接するように積層されていて、銅よりもイオン化傾向の大きい金属を含む層をシード層よりも上方側に有することが好ましい。 2. Etching method
The etching method of the present invention is a method mainly for semiconductor substrates, and includes a step of etching a seed layer of an intermediate product having a copper-containing seed layer of a semiconductor substrate using the above-mentioned aqueous composition. The semiconductor substrate to be etched by the etching method is preferably laminated in contact with the above-mentioned seed layer and has a layer containing a metal having a higher ionization tendency than copper above the seed layer.

The etching method of the present invention is a method mainly for semiconductor substrates, and includes a step of etching a seed layer of an intermediate product having a copper-containing seed layer of a semiconductor substrate using the above-mentioned aqueous composition. The semiconductor substrate to be etched by the etching method is preferably laminated in contact with the above-mentioned seed layer and has a layer containing a metal having a higher ionization tendency than copper above the seed layer.
エッチング工程における水性組成物の使用温度に特に制限はないが、10~50℃の温度が好ましく、より好ましくは20~45℃であり、さらに好ましくは25~40℃である。水性組成物の温度が10℃以上であれば、エッチング速度が良好となるため、優れた生産効率が得られる。一方、水性組成物の温度が50℃以下であれば、液組成変化を抑制し、エッチング条件を一定に保つことができる。水性組成物の温度を高くすることで、エッチング速度は上昇するが、水性組成物の組成変化(過酸化水素の分解)を小さく抑えることなども考慮した上で、適宜最適な処理温度を決定すればよい。
There are no particular limitations on the temperature at which the aqueous composition is used in the etching process, but a temperature of 10 to 50°C is preferred, more preferably 20 to 45°C, and even more preferably 25 to 40°C. If the temperature of the aqueous composition is 10°C or higher, the etching rate is good, resulting in excellent production efficiency. On the other hand, if the temperature of the aqueous composition is 50°C or lower, changes in the liquid composition can be suppressed and the etching conditions can be kept constant. Increasing the temperature of the aqueous composition increases the etching rate, but the optimal processing temperature can be determined appropriately, taking into consideration factors such as minimizing changes in the composition of the aqueous composition (decomposition of hydrogen peroxide).
また、エッチング処理時間に特に制限はないが、10~600秒が好ましく、30~120秒がより好ましい。処理時間は、エッチング対象物の表面の状態、水性組成物の濃度、温度および処理方法等の種々の条件により適宜選択すればよい。例えば、ニッケルなどの銅よりもイオン化傾向の大きい金属を主成分とするめっき層のすぐ下に積層されている、銅合金などによって形成されたシード層に対するエッチング処理においては、シード層の色が消失してめっき層と重なる領域のみが残存していると判断できる瞬間(ジャストエッチングタイム(J.E.T.ともいう))までを処理時間とすることができる。
There is no particular limit to the etching time, but 10 to 600 seconds is preferable, and 30 to 120 seconds is more preferable. The processing time may be appropriately selected depending on various conditions such as the surface condition of the object to be etched, the concentration of the aqueous composition, the temperature, and the processing method. For example, in the case of an etching process for a seed layer made of a copper alloy or the like that is laminated immediately below a plating layer whose main component is a metal such as nickel that has a higher ionization tendency than copper, the processing time can be the moment when the color of the seed layer disappears and it can be determined that only the area overlapping with the plating layer remains (just etching time (JET)).
エッチング対象物に水性組成物を接触させる方法は特に制限されない。例えば水性組成物の滴下(枚葉スピン処理)またはスプレーなどの形式によりエッチング対象物に接触させる方法、またはエッチング対象物を水性組成物に浸漬させる方法などの湿式法(ウェット)エッチング方法を採用することができる。本発明においては、いずれの方法を採用してもよい。
The method of contacting the aqueous composition with the etching target is not particularly limited. For example, a wet etching method such as a method of contacting the aqueous composition with the etching target by dropping (single-wafer spin processing) or spraying, or a method of immersing the etching target in the aqueous composition, can be used. Either method may be used in the present invention.

In the compositions for etching semiconductor substrates produced in Examples 1 to 13, Comparative Example 1, and Reference Example 1, the evaluation samples were immersed at 25°C for 1.5 times the time of Cu JET while stirring with a stirrer at 350 rpm. The evaluation samples after the treatment were processed in a FIB (focused ion beam) device (Helios G4 UX (manufactured by Thermo Scientific) so that the bumps would change from circular to semicircular when observed from above. Next, an SEM image of the evaluation sample processed using Helios G4 UX (manufactured by Thermo Scientific) was obtained. In the SEM image, the horizontal distance from the Ni end face to the Cu end face was defined as the Cu undercut amount and measured.
表1に示すとおり、実施例1~13の水性組成物を用いた場合にはいずれも、ニッケル、および錫-銀合金の腐食を抑制しつつ、銅を選択的にエッチングすることが確認できた。
一方、成分組成が本発明に規定する範囲を外れた実施例以外の比較例1などにおいては、ニッケルのメッキ層16(図2及び図3参照)にてガルバニック腐食が生じたことに起因するものと考えられるCu層12のアンダーカット量が大きくなった。
すなわち、概略的な図3(a)に示されるように、実施例の半導体基板の中間体10aにおいては、下側金属層(めっき層)16aの下面の端部領域におけるガルバニック腐食が防止され、Cuのシード層である12aの端部におけるアンダーカットが抑制されたのに対し、図3(b)にて示されるように、比較例の半導体基板の中間体10bにおいては、下側金属層(めっき層)16bの下面の端部領域におけるガルバニック腐食が進行してしまい、ガルバニック腐食の進行に伴って、Cuのシード層である12bの端部におけるアンダーカットも拡大してしまったものと考えられる。 As shown in Table 1, it was confirmed that when the aqueous compositions of Examples 1 to 13 were used, copper was selectively etched while suppressing the corrosion of nickel and tin-silver alloy.
On the other hand, in Comparative Example 1 and other examples other than the examples in which the component composition was outside the range specified in the present invention, the amount of undercut in theCu layer 12 increased, which is thought to be due to galvanic corrosion occurring in the nickel plating layer 16 (see Figures 2 and 3).
That is, as shown in the schematic diagram of FIG. 3(a), in the semiconductor substrate intermediate 10a of the embodiment, galvanic corrosion was prevented in the edge region of the underside of the lower metal layer (plated layer) 16a, and undercut at the edge of the Cu seed layer 12a was suppressed, whereas in the semiconductor substrate intermediate 10b of the comparative example, as shown in FIG. 3(b), galvanic corrosion progressed in the edge region of the underside of the lower metal layer (plated layer) 16b, and it is believed that as the galvanic corrosion progressed, the undercut at the edge of the Cu seed layer 12b also expanded.
