Abstract:
An aqueous polishing composition having a pH of 3 to 11 and comprising (A) abrasive particles which are positively charged when dispersed in an aqueous medium free from component (B) and of a pH of 3 to 9 as evidenced by the electrophoretic mobility; (B) anionic phosphate dispersing agents; and (C) a polyhydric alcohol component selected from the group consisting of (c1) water-soluble and water-dispersible, aliphatic and cycloaliphatic, monomeric, dimeric and oligomeric polyols having at least 4 hydroxy groups; (c2) a mixture consisting of (c21) water-soluble and water-dispersible, aliphatic and cycloaliphatic polyols having at least 2 hydroxy groups; and (c22) water-soluble or water-dispersible polymers selected from linear and branched alkylene oxide homopolymers and copolymers (c221); and linear and branched, aliphatic and cycloaliphatic poly(N-vinylamide) homopolymers and copolymers (c222); and (c3) mixtures of (c1) and (c2); and a process for polishing substrates for electrical, mechanical and optical devices.
Abstract:
A chemical-mechanical polishing (CMP) composition is provided comprising (A) one or more compounds selected from the group of benzotriazole derivatives which act as corrosion inhibitors and (B) inorganic particles, organic particles, or a composite or mixture thereof. The invention also relates to the use of certain compounds selected from the group of benzotriazole derivatives as corrosion inhibitors, especially for increasing the selectivity of a chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) composition for the removal of tantalum or tantalum nitride from a substrate for the manufacture of a semiconductor device in the presence of copper on said substrate.
