专利说明:
[0001] The present invention relates to chemical mechanical polishing felts and methods of making and using them. The present invention more particularly relates to a chemical-mechanical polishing felt comprising a polishing layer and a limit-point detection window incorporated in the polishing layer, wherein the polishing layer has a density greater than 0.6 g / cm 3 ; a Shore D hardness of 5 to 40; an elongation at break of 100 to 450%; and, a cutting speed of 25 to 150 pm / hr; and wherein the polishing layer has a polishing surface adapted to polish a substrate. In the manufacture of integrated circuits and other electronic devices, multiple layers of conductive, semiconductor and dielectric materials are deposited on and removed from a surface of a semiconductor wafer. Thin layers of conductive, semiconductor and dielectric materials can be deposited by many deposition techniques. Conventional deposition techniques in modern wafer processing include physical vapor deposition (PVD), also known as sputtering, chemical vapor deposition (CVD), plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) and electro-chemical plating, among others. Typical shrinkage techniques include wet and dry isotropic and anisotropic etching, among others. When the layers of materials are successively deposited and removed, the upper surface of the slab becomes non-planar. Since the subsequent processing of the semiconductor (eg metallization) requires the wafer to have a flat surface, the wafer must be planarized. Planarization is useful for removing unwanted surface topography and surface defects, such as rough surfaces, agglomerated materials, crystal lattice deterioration, scratches, and polluted layers or materials. [0002] Mechano-chemical planarization, or mechano-chemical polishing (CMP) is a conventional technique used to planarize or polish machined parts, such as semiconductor wafers. In a conventional CMP, a wafer carrier, or polishing head, is attached to a carrier assembly. The polishing head supports the wafer and positions the wafer in contact with a polishing layer of a polishing felt which is fixed on a table or cylinder in a CMP apparatus. The support assembly provides an adjustable pressure between the wafer and the polishing felt. A polishing medium (e.g. a suspension) is simultaneously dispensed onto the polishing felt and is drawn into the gap between the wafer and the polishing layer. The polishing felt and the wafer typically rotate relative to one another to effect polishing. When the polishing felt rotates below the wafer, the wafer scans a typically annular polishing path, or polishing region, in which the surface of the wafer is directly confronted with the polishing layer. The wafer surface is polished and made flat by the chemical and mechanical action of the polishing layer and the polishing medium on the surface. Felt surface "treatment" or "finishing" is critical to maintaining a consistent polishing surface for stable polishing performance. The polishing surface of the polishing felt wears over time, smoothing the microtexture of the polishing surface - a phenomenon called "glazing". The treatment of the polishing felt is typically accomplished by mechanical abrasion of the polishing surface with a treatment disk. The treatment disk has a rough treatment surface typically consisting of recessed diamond points. The treatment disk is brought into contact with the polishing surface either during intermittent interruptions in the CMP process when the polishing is quiescent ("ex situ"), or while the CMP process is in progress ("in situ" ). The treatment disk typically rotates in a position which is fixed relative to the axis of rotation of the polishing felt, and scans an annular treatment region as the polishing felt rotates. The treatment method, as described, cuts microscopic grooves into the polishing surface, abrading and planing both the felt material and renewing the polishing texture. [0003] Semiconductor devices are becoming more complex with thinner aspects and more layers of metallization. [0004] This trend requires improved performance for polishing consumables in order to maintain planarity and limit polishing defects. These can create breaks or short-circuits in the conductive lines that would render the semiconductor device non-functional. It is generally known that an approach to reduce polishing defects, such as micro-scratches or machining marks, is to use a softer polishing felt. A family of flexible polyurethane polishing layers is described by James et al. in U.S. Patent 7,074,115. James et al. Disclose a polishing felt comprising the reaction product of an isocyanate-terminated urethane prepolymer with an aromatic diamine or polyamine hardener, wherein the reaction product has a porosity of at least 0.1 volume percent , and a KEL energy loss factor at 40 ° C and 1 rad / s from 385 to 750 I / Pa, and an E 'module at 40 ° C and 1 rad / s from 100 to 400 MPa. As described above, it is necessary to diamond treat the surface of chemical-mechanical polishing felts to create an advantageous micro-texture for optimum polishing performance. However, it is difficult to create such a texture in conventional polishing layer materials, such as those described by James et al. since these materials have high ductility, as measured by tensile elongation values. As a result, when these materials are subjected to treatment with a diamond treatment disc, rather than cutting grooves in the surface of the felt, the diamonds in the processing disc simply push the felt material onto the side without cutting. A very small texture is thus created in the surface of these conventional materials as a result of treatment with a diamond treatment disk. Another problem with these conventional chemical mechanical polishing felts materials occurs during the machining process to form patterns of macro-grooves in the felt surface. Conventional chemical mechanical polishing felts are typically provided with groove pattern cutting in their polishing surfaces to promote slurry flow and to remove polishing debris from the felt-wafer interface. Such grooves are frequently cut into the polishing surface of the polishing felt either by using a lathe or by a CNC grinding machine. With soft felting materials, however, a problem similar to that of a diamond treatment appears, such that after the cutting end is passed, the felt material simply connects and the formed grooves are closed again. herself. The quality of the grooves is thus poor and it is more difficult to successfully manufacture commercially acceptable felts with such flexible materials. This problem becomes worse when the hardness of the felt material decreases. [0005] Another challenge presented by chemical mechanical polishing is the determination of when the substrate has been polished to the desired extent. In situ processes for determining the polishing endpoints have been developed. In situ limiting point optical techniques can be classified into two basic categories: (1) control of the reflected optical signal at a single wavelength or (2) control of the reflected optical signal from lengths of d multiple waves. Typical wavelengths used for the optical determination of the limiting point include those of the visible spectrum (for example from 400 to 700 nm), the ultraviolet spectrum (315 to 400 nm), and the infrared spectrum (for example 700 at 1000 nm). In U.S. Patent 5,433,651, Lustig et al. have described a single-wavelength polymer end point detection method in which light from a laser source is transmitted on a wafer surface and the reflected signal is monitored. When the composition on the wafer surface changes from one metal to another, the reflection coefficient varies. This variation of the reflection coefficient is then used to detect the polishing end point. In U.S. Patent 6,106,662, Bibby et al. described the use of a spectrometer to obtain a spectrum of intensity of light reflected in the visible light range of the optical spectrum. In metal CMP applications, Bibby et al. cite the use of the entire spectrum to detect the polishing end point. Mechano-chemical polishing felts with windows have been developed to adapt these optical endpoint determination techniques. Roberts describes, for example, in U.S. Patent 5,605,760 a polishing felt in which at least a portion of the felt is transparent to laser light over a wavelength range. Roberts cites in some of the disclosed embodiments a polishing felt that includes a transparent window piece in an otherwise opaque felt. The window piece may be a bar or a clear polymer plug in a molded polishing felt. The bar or plug may be inserted in the molded state into the polishing felt (ie, an "integral window"), or may be installed in a blank in the polishing felt after the molding (ie a "plug-in-place window" or "plug10 in-place window"). Aliphatic isocyanate-based polyurethane materials, such as those disclosed in U.S. Patent 6,984,163, have provided improved light transmission over a broad spectrum of light. The necessary durability required for demanding polishing applications is unfortunately lacking in these aliphatic polyurethane windows, inter alla. Conventional polymer-based endpoint detection windows often have disadvantageous degradation when exposed to light having a length of 330 to 425 nm. However, increasing pressure is being used to utilize light with shorter wavelengths for endpoint detection purposes in semiconductor polishing applications to facilitate thinner material layers and sizes. smaller devices. In addition, semiconductor devices are becoming increasingly complex with finer aspects and more metallization layers. This trend requires improved performance for polishing consumables in order to maintain planarity and limit polishing defects. These may create breaks or short circuits in the conductive lines that would render the semiconductor device non-functional. It is generally known that one approach to reduce polishing defects, such as micro scratches or machining marks, is to use a softer polishing layer material. There is therefore a trend towards using softer polishing layer materials to facilitate improved defectivity performance. Nevertheless, conventional window formulations do not adapt well to such softer polishing layer materials, tending to increase polishing defectivity. There is therefore a continuing need for chemical mechanical polishing felts that provide a physical property profile that correlates well with that associated with low-defect formulations, but that also imparts improved processability to the polishing layer ( i.e., has a cutting speed of 25 to 150 pm / hr) and polymer formulations of end point detection windows for use in such chemical mechanical polishing felts. In particular, there is a continuing need for polymeric end point detection polymer formulations having a Shore D hardness of 50, coupled with an elongation at break of 5. 400%; wherein the window formulations have the durability required for demanding polishing applications.

[0025] Some embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail in the following Examples. Polishing Layer: Comparative Examples AB and Examples 1-19 Polishing layers were prepared according to the details of the formulations provided in TABLE 3. Polyurethane cakes were specifically prepared by the controlled mixture of the polishing prepolymer at 50.degree. ° C (ie, Adiprene® LF667 for Comparative Example A and Examples 1-9, and Adiprene® LFG963A for Comparative Example B and Examples 10-19, both available from Chemtura Corporation) with the constituents of the polishing layer hardener system. The amine-initiated polyol curing agent (i.e., Voranol® 800 available from The Dow Chemical Company) and the high molecular weight polyol curing agent (i.e., Voralux® HF505 available from The Dow Chemical Company) were premixed before combination in the other raw materials. All raw materials, except MBOCA, were maintained at a pre-mix temperature of 51 ° C. MBOCA was maintained at a pre-mixing temperature of 116 ° C. [0026] The ratio of the polishing layer hardener system to the polishing layer prepolymer has been set so that stoichiometry, defined by the ratio of reactive hydrogen groups (i.e., the sum of -OH groups and -NH2) in the unreacted isocyanate group (NCO) hardener system in the polishing layer prepolymer, was that shown in TABLE 3. Porosity was introduced into the polishing layers by adding microspheres Expancel® to the polishing layer prepolymer prior to combination with the polishing layer hardener system to achieve the desired porosity and density. [0027] The polishing layer prepolymer with the incorporated Expancel® microspheres and the polishing layer hardener system were mixed together using a high shear mixing head. After the release of the mixing head, the combination was dispensed over a period of 5 minutes in a circular mold with a diameter of 86.4 cm (34 inches) to provide a total pouring thickness of approximately 10 cm (4 inches). . The dispensed combination was allowed to gel for 15 minutes before placing the mold in a curing oven. The mold was then cured in the curing oven using the following cycle: ramp 30 minutes from room temperature to a set point of 104 ° C, then hold for 15.5 hours at 104 ° C, and then 2 hour ramp from 104 ° C to 21 ° C. The cured polyurethane cakes were then removed from the mold and sliced (cut using a moving blade) at a temperature of 30 to 80 ° C in approximately forty separate sheets of thickness 2.0 mm (80 thousandths of an inch). Slicing was initiated from the top of each cake. Incomplete leaves were discarded.

It is noted that the density data cited were determined according to ASTM D1622; quoted Shore D hardness data were determined according to ASTM D2240; the quoted Shore A hardness data were determined according to ASTM D2240; and, the cited elongation data were determined according to ASTM D412. The cutting speed data cited in TABLE 4 was measured using a Mirra® 200 mm polishing tool from Applied Materials. This polishing tool is developed to house a circular chemical mechanical polishing felt having a nominal diameter of 51 cm (20 inches). The polishing layers having a circular cross section were prepared as described herein in the Examples. These polishing layers were then grooved by machining to provide a pattern of grooves in the polishing surface comprising a plurality of concentric circular grooves having pitch dimensions of 120 mils (3.05 mm), width of 20 mils (0.51 mm) and 30 mil (0.76 mm) deep. The polishing layers were then laminated to form an expanded underlayment layer (SP2310 available from Rohm and Haas Electronic Materials CMP Inc.). A diamond treatment disc (DiaGrid® AD3CL-150840-3 felt treatment agent manufactured by Kinik Company) was used to abrade the polishing surface of the grooved polishing layers using the following processing conditions: the polishing surface polishing layers were continuously abraded from the diamond treatment disc over a period of 2 hours, with a cylinder speed of 100 rpm, a deionized water flow rate of 150 cm 3 / min and a downward force of the 48.3 kPa (7 psi) treatment disk. The cutting speed was determined by measuring the change in the average groove depth over time. The groove depth was measured (in pm / hour) using a Microtrack II Laser Triangulation Sensor MTI attached to a Zaber Technologies Motorized Slide to profile the polishing surface of each polishing layer from the center to the outer edge. The scanning speed of the sensor on the slide was 0.732 mm / s and the sampling rate (measurements / mm scan) for the sensor was 6.34 dots / mm. The cutting speed quoted in TABLE 4 is the average arithmetic reduction of the groove depth over time, based on the collected thickness measurements taken for> 2,000 points across the polishing surface of the polishing layer. .

Specifically, the window prepolymer with constituents of the hardener system using a vortex mixer at 1000 rpm for 30 seconds. All of the raw materials with the exception of the difunctional aromatic hardener (i.e., MBOCA and MCDEA) were maintained at a pre-mixing temperature of 60 ° C. MBOCA and MCDEA were maintained, when used, at a premix temperature of 120 ° C.
