Abstract:
A post chemical-mechanical-polishing (post-CMP) cleaning composition comprising: (A) at least one compound comprising at least one thiol (?SH), thioether (?SR1 )or thiocarbonyl (>C=S) group, wherein R1 is alkyl, aryl, alkylaryl or arylalkyl, (B) at least one sugar alcohol which contains at least three hydroxyl (?OH) groups and does not comprise any carboxylic acid (?COOH) or carboxylate (?COO -) groups, and (C)an aqueous medium.

Abstract:
A post chemical-mechanical-polishing (post-CMP) cleaning composition comprising: (A) is cysteine, glutathione, N-acetylcysteine, thiourea, (L) at least one oligomeric or polymeric polycarboxylic acid, and (C) water, wherein the post-CMP cleaning composition has a pH-value in the range of from 4 to not more than 7. The use of the composition for removing residues and contaminants from the surface of semiconductor substrates useful for manufacturing microelectronic devices. A process for manufacturing microelectronic devices from semiconductor substrates comprising the step of removing residues and contaminants from the surface of the semiconductor substrates by contacting them at least once with the post-CMP cleaning composition.
