본 발명은 반도체 소자 및 액정 표시소자를 비롯한 평판 표시소자의 제조에 사용되는 구리배선용 포토레지스트 스트리퍼 조성물에 관한 것으로, 더욱 상세하게는 다양한 조건의 사진 식각 공정을 거치면서 변질, 경화된 포토레지스트를 고온 및 저온에서도 짧은 시간 내에 용이하게 제거 가능하며 포토레지스트 하부의 도전성막 및 절연막의 부식을 일으키지 않는 구리 배선용 포토레지스트 스트리퍼 조성물에 관한 것이다.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a photoresist stripper composition for copper wiring used in the manufacture of flat panel display devices, including semiconductor devices and liquid crystal display devices. And a photoresist stripper composition for copper wiring that can be easily removed even at a low temperature within a short time and does not cause corrosion of the conductive film and the insulating film under the photoresist.
반도체 집적회로 또는 액정 표시소자의 미세 회로 제조 공정은 기판상에 형성된 구리, 구리 합금막 등의 도전성 금속막 또는 실리콘 산화막, 실리콘 질화막 등의 절연막에 포토레지스트를 균일하게 도포하고, 이것을 선택적으로 노광, 현상 처리하여 포토레지스트 패턴을 형성한 다음, 패턴화된 포토레지스트막을 마스크로 하여 상기 도전성 금속막이나 절연막을 습식 또는 건식으로 에칭하여 미세 회로 패턴을 포토레지스트 하부층에 전사한 후 불필요해진 포토레지스트층을 스트리퍼(박리액)로 제거하는 공정으로 진행된다.In the process of manufacturing a semiconductor integrated circuit or a fine circuit of a liquid crystal display device, a photoresist is uniformly applied to a conductive metal film such as copper or a copper alloy film formed on a substrate, or an insulating film such as a silicon oxide film or a silicon nitride film, which is selectively exposed to light, After the development process to form a photoresist pattern, the conductive metal film or the insulating film is wet or dry etched using the patterned photoresist film as a mask to transfer the fine circuit pattern to the lower photoresist layer, and then the unnecessary photoresist layer is removed. Proceeds to the step of removing with a stripper (peel).
상기 반도체 소자 및 액정 표시 소자 제조용 포토레지스트를 제거하기 위한 스트리퍼가 갖추어야 할 기본 특성은 다음과 같다.Basic characteristics of the stripper for removing the photoresist for manufacturing the semiconductor device and the liquid crystal display device are as follows.
먼저, 저온에서 단시간 내에 포토레지스트를 박리할 수 있어야 하고 세척(rinse)후 기판상에 포토레지스트 잔류물을 남기지 않아야 하는 우수한 박리 능력을 가져야 한다. 또한, 포토레지스트 하부층의 금속막이나 절연막을 손상시키지 않아야 하는 저부식성을 가져야 한다. 또한, 스트리퍼를 이루는 용제간에 상온반응이 일어나면 스트리퍼의 저장 안정성이 문제되고 스트리퍼 제조시의 혼합순서에 따라 다른 물성을 보일 수 있으므로, 혼합 용제간의 무반응성 및 고온 안정성이 있어야 한다. 또한, 작업자의 안전이나 폐기 처리시의 환경 문제를 고려하여 독성이 적도록 저독성이 있어야 한다. 또한, 고온 공정에서 포토레지스트 박리가 진행될 경우 휘발이 많이 일어나면 구성 성분비가 빨리 변하게 되고 스트리퍼의 공정 안정성과 작업 재현성이 저하되므로, 저휘발성이 있어야 한다. 또한 일정 스트리퍼 양으로 처리할 수 있는 기판수가 많아야 하고, 스트리퍼를 구성하는 성분의 수 급이 용이하고 저가이며 폐스트리퍼의 재처리를 통한 재활용이 가능하도록 경제성이 있어야 한다.First, it should be able to exfoliate the photoresist in a short time at low temperature and have an excellent exfoliation ability that should not leave photoresist residue on the substrate after rinse. In addition, it should have low corrosion resistance that should not damage the metal film or insulating film of the photoresist underlayer. In addition, if a room temperature reaction occurs between the solvents forming the stripper, the storage stability of the stripper may be a problem and different physical properties may be shown depending on the mixing sequence during the production of the stripper. Therefore, there should be non-reactivity and high temperature stability between the mixed solvents. In addition, it should be low toxicity in order to be less toxic in consideration of the safety of the worker or environmental problems during disposal. In addition, when the photoresist stripping proceeds at a high temperature process, if a lot of volatilization occurs, the component ratio changes rapidly and the process stability and work reproducibility of the stripper are lowered. In addition, the number of substrates that can be processed with a certain amount of stripper should be large, the supply of the components constituting the stripper should be easy, low-cost and economical to enable recycling through the reprocessing of the waste stripper.
이러한 조건들을 충족시키기 위해 다양한 포토레지스트용 스트리퍼 조성물이 개발되고 있으며, 구체적 예를 들면 다음과 같다.In order to satisfy these conditions, various stripper compositions for photoresists have been developed, for example, as follows.
초기에 개발된 포토레지스트 스트리퍼 조성물의 예로는 일본특개소 51-72503호는 탄소수 10 내지 20개의 알킬 벤젠 설폰산과 비점이 150 ℃ 이상의 비할로겐화 방향족 탄화수소를 포함하는 스트리퍼 조성물을 개시하였다. 일본 특개소 57-84456호는 디메틸설폭사이드 또는 디에틸설폭사이드, 및 유기 설폰화합물로 구성된 스트리퍼 조성물을 기술하고 있다. 또한, 미국특허 제4,256,294호는 알킬아릴 설폰산과 탄소수 6 ∼ 9개의 친수성 방향족 설폰산과 비점이 150 ℃ 이상의 비할로겐화 방향족 탄화수소로 구성된 스트리퍼 조성물이 개시된 바 있지만, 상기의 조성물들은 구리, 구리 합금 등의 도전성 금속막에 대한 부식이 심하고 강한 독성 및 환경 오염문제 등으로 사용이 곤란하였다.As an example of an initially developed photoresist stripper composition, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 51-72503 discloses a stripper composition comprising an alkyl benzene sulfonic acid having 10 to 20 carbon atoms and a non-halogenated aromatic hydrocarbon having a boiling point of 150 ° C or more. Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 57-84456 describes a stripper composition composed of dimethyl sulfoxide or diethyl sulfoxide, and an organic sulfone compound. In addition, U.S. Patent No. 4,256,294 discloses a stripper composition composed of alkylaryl sulfonic acid, a hydrophilic aromatic sulfonic acid having 6 to 9 carbon atoms, and a non-halogenated aromatic hydrocarbon having a boiling point of 150 ° C. or higher. It is difficult to use due to severe corrosion on metal film and strong toxicity and environmental pollution.
이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해, 수용성 알칸올아민을 필수 성분으로 여러 유기용제를 혼합시켜 제조한 스트리퍼 조성물들이 제안되었고, 그 예를 들면 다음과 같다.In order to solve this problem, stripper compositions prepared by mixing various organic solvents with water-soluble alkanolamine as an essential component have been proposed.
미국특허 제4,617,251호는 모노에탄올 아민(MEA), 2-(2-아미노에톡시)-1-에탄올(AEE) 등의 유기아민 화합물; 및 디메틸포름아미드(DMF), 디메틸아세트아미드(DMAc), N-메틸피롤리디논(NMP), 디메틸설폭사이드(DMSO), 카비톨 아세테이트, 프로필렌글리콜 모노메틸에테르 아세테이트(PGMEA) 등의 극성용제 로 이루어진 2성분계 스트리퍼 조성물을 개시하고 있다. 미국특허 제4,770,713호는 유기 아민 화합물; 및 N-메틸아세트아미드, 디메틸포름아미드(DMF), 디메틸아세트아미드(DMAc), N-메틸-N-에틸프로피온아미드, 디에틸아세트아미드(DEAc), 디프로필아세트아미드(DPAc), N,N-디메틸프로피온아미드, N,N-디메틸부틸아미드 등의 아미드 용제로 이루어진 2성분계 스트리퍼 조성물을 개시하고 있다. 일본 특개소 62-49355호는 알칸올 아민 및 에틸렌디아민에 에틸렌옥사이드를 도입한 알킬렌 폴리아민 설폰 화합물과 글리콜 모노알킬에테르로 구성된 스트리퍼 조성물을 개시하고 있으며, 일본 특개소 63-208043호는 수용성 알칸올 아민과 DMI를 함유한 스트리퍼 조성물을 개시하였다. 일본 특개소 63-231343호는 아민 화합물, 극성 용제류 및 계면활성제로 이루어진 포지형 포토레지스트용 스트리퍼 조성물을 개시하고 있다. 일본 특개소 64-42653호는 디메틸설폭사이드(DMSO) 50 중량% 이상, 디에틸렌글리콜 모노알킬에테르, 디에틸렌글리콜 디알킬에테르, 감마부티로락톤 및 1,3-디메틸-2-이미다졸리디논(DMI)으로부터 선택된 1 종 이상의 용제 1 내지 50 중량%, 및 모노에탄올아민(MEA) 등의 함질소 유기히드록시 화합물로 구성된 스트리퍼 조성물을 개시하고 있다. 일본 특개평 4-124668호는 유기 아민 20 내지 90 중량%, 인산에스테르 계면활성제 0.1 내지 20 중량%, 2-부틴-1,4-디올 0.1 내지 20 중량%, 디에틸렌글리콜 디알킬에테르와 비양자성 극성 용제류로 구성되는 스트리퍼 조성물을 개시하고 있다. 여기서 2-부틴-1,4-디올 및 인산에스테르 계면활성제는 박리특성을 감소시키지 않는 범위 내에서 금속층이 부식되는 것을 방지하기 위해 첨가되었다. 그러나 이러한 포토레지스트 스트리핑용 조성물은 구리 및 구리합금막에 대 한 부식방지력이 약하여, 스트립 공정 중에 심각한 부식을 유발하고, 후 공정인 게이트 절연막 증착시 불량을 발생시키는 문제가 있다.U.S. Patent 4,617,251 discloses organic amine compounds such as monoethanol amine (MEA) and 2- (2-aminoethoxy) -1-ethanol (AEE); And polar solvents such as dimethylformamide (DMF), dimethylacetamide (DMAc), N-methylpyrrolidinone (NMP), dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), carbitol acetate, and propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate (PGMEA). A two-component stripper composition is disclosed. US 4,770,713 discloses organic amine compounds; And N-methylacetamide, dimethylformamide (DMF), dimethylacetamide (DMAc), N-methyl-N-ethylpropionamide, diethylacetamide (DEAc), dipropylacetamide (DPAc), N, N A two-component stripper composition comprising an amide solvent such as -dimethylpropionamide and N, N-dimethylbutylamide is disclosed. Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 62-49355 discloses a stripper composition composed of an alkylene polyamine sulfone compound in which ethylene oxide is introduced into alkanol amine and ethylenediamine and a glycol monoalkyl ether, and Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 63-208043 discloses a water-soluble alkanol. A stripper composition containing amine and DMI is disclosed. Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 63-231343 discloses a stripper composition for a positive photoresist composed of an amine compound, a polar solvent and a surfactant. Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 64-42653 discloses at least 50% by weight of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), diethylene glycol monoalkyl ether, diethylene glycol dialkyl ether, gamma butyrolactone and 1,3-dimethyl-2-imidazolidinone A stripper composition composed of 1 to 50% by weight of one or more solvents selected from (DMI) and a nitrogen-containing organic hydroxy compound such as monoethanolamine (MEA) is disclosed. Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 4-124668 discloses 20 to 90% by weight of organic amine, 0.1 to 20% by weight of phosphate ester surfactant, 0.1 to 20% by weight of 2-butyne-1,4-diol, diethylene glycol dialkyl ether and aprotic A stripper composition composed of polar solvents is disclosed. 2-butyne-1,4-diol and phosphate ester surfactants were added here to prevent corrosion of the metal layer within a range that does not reduce the peeling properties. However, such a photoresist stripping composition has a weak corrosion protection against copper and copper alloy films, causing severe corrosion during the stripping process, and causing a problem during deposition of the gate insulating film, which is a later process.
또한, 일본 특개평 4-350660호는 DMI, DMSO, 수용성 유기 아민으로 구성된 스트리퍼 조성물을 개시하였고, 일본 특개평 5-281753호는 알칸올 아민, 설폰 화합물 또는 설폭사이드 화합물, (C6H6)n(OH)n (이때, n은 1, 2 또는 3의 정수)의 히드록시 화합물을 포함하는 스트리퍼 조성물을 개시하고 있고, 일본 특개평 제8-87118호는 N-알킬알칸올아민 50 내지 90 중량%, DMSO 또는 DMF 50 내지 10 중량%를 포함하는 스트리퍼 조성물을 개시하였다. 그러나, 이러한 포토레지스트용 스트리퍼 조성물들은 박리력과 안정성 등에서 비교적 양호한 특성을 나타내고는 있으나, 최근의 액정표시소자 및 반도체 소자 제조공정에서는 유리기판과 실리콘 웨이퍼 기판을 120 ℃ 이상의 고온에서 처리하는 등, 공정 조건이 가혹해짐에 따라 포토레지스트가 고온에서 포스트베이크(postbake)되는 경우가 많아지고, 이로부터 변질 경화 정도가 심해져서 앞서 언급한 스트리퍼 조성물로는 제거가 완전히 되지 않는 문제가 있다.In addition, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 4-350660 discloses a stripper composition composed of DMI, DMSO, and water-soluble organic amine, and Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 5-281753 discloses an alkanol amine, a sulfone compound or a sulfoxide compound, (C 6 H 6 ). A stripper composition comprising a hydroxy compound of n (OH) n ( where n is an integer of 1, 2 or 3) is disclosed, and Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 8-87118 discloses N-alkylalkanolamines 50 to 90 A stripper composition comprising 50 wt%, DMSO or DMF 50 wt% is disclosed. However, these photoresist stripper compositions exhibit relatively good characteristics in terms of peeling force and stability. However, in recent liquid crystal display and semiconductor device manufacturing processes, glass substrates and silicon wafer substrates are processed at a high temperature of 120 ° C. or higher. As the conditions become severe, the photoresist is often postbaked at a high temperature, and the degree of deterioration hardening is increased therefrom, so that the stripper composition mentioned above is not completely removed.
상기 고온 공정을 거쳐 경화된 포토레지스트를 깨끗이 제거하기 위한 조성물로 물 및/또는 히드록실아민 화합물을 포함하는 포토레지스트 스트리퍼 조성물이 제안된 바 있다. 그 예를 소개하면, 일본 특개평 4-289866호는 히드록실 아민류, 알칸올 아민류, 및 물로 구성된 스트리퍼 조성물을 개시하였고, 일본 특개평 6-266119호는 히드록실 아민류, 알칸올 아민류, 물 및 방식제로 이루어진 스트리퍼 조성물을 개시한 바 있다. 또한, 일본 특개평 7-69618호는 감마부티로락톤(GBL), DMF, DMAc, NMP등의 극성 비양자성 용제, 2-메틸아미노 에탄올(N-MAE)을 포함하는 아미노알콜, 및 물을 일정비율로 함유하는 스트리퍼 조성물을 기술하고 있다. 또한, 일본 특개평 8-123043호는 아미노알콜, 물, 디에틸렌글리콜 모노부틸에테르(BDG) 등의 글리콜 알킬에테르로 구성된 스트리퍼 조성물을 개시하고 있다. 일본 특개평 8-262746호는 알칸올 아민류, 알콕시알킬아민류, 글리콜 모노알킬 에테르, 당화합물, 제 4급 암모늄 수산화물, 및 물로 구성된 스트리퍼 조성물을 개시하고 있고, 일본 특개평 9-152721호는 알칸올 아민, 히드록실 아민, 디에틸렌글리콜 모노알킬에테르, 방식제로서 솔비톨 등의 당화합물 및 물을 함유한 스트리퍼 조성물을 개시하고 있다. 일본 특개평 9-96911호는 히드록실 아민류, 물, 산해리 상수(pKa)가 7.5 내지 13인 아민류, 수용성 극성 유기용제 및 방식제로 이루어진 스트리퍼 조성물을 개시하고 있다. 그러나, 상기한 스트리퍼 조성물들은 가혹한 고온공정, 건식식각, 애슁, 및 이온 주입공정에 의해 변질되며, 가교 경화된 포토레지스트막과 식각 공정에서 금속성 부산물과 반응하여 생성되는 포토레지스트 식각잔류물에 대한 박리력 및 포토레지스트 도전성 하부막인 구리 및 구리합금막의 부식 방지 성능면에서 충분하지 못한 문제가 있다. 또한 고온 조건에서 히드록실 아민 화합물은 불안정하여 시간이 경과함에 따라 분해되는 문제점이 있다.A photoresist stripper composition comprising water and / or a hydroxylamine compound has been proposed as a composition for cleanly removing the photoresist cured through the high temperature process. For example, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 4-289866 discloses a stripper composition composed of hydroxyl amines, alkanol amines, and water, and Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 6-266119 discloses hydroxyl amines, alkanol amines, water, and anticorrosion. A stripper composition consisting of zero has been disclosed. In addition, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 7-69618 discloses a polar aprotic solvent such as gamma butyrolactone (GBL), DMF, DMAc, NMP, amino alcohols containing 2-methylamino ethanol (N-MAE), and water. Stripper compositions containing in proportions are described. In addition, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 8-123043 discloses a stripper composition composed of glycol alkyl ether such as amino alcohol, water, diethylene glycol monobutyl ether (BDG), and the like. Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 8-262746 discloses a stripper composition composed of alkanol amines, alkoxyalkylamines, glycol monoalkyl ethers, sugar compounds, quaternary ammonium hydroxides, and water. A stripper composition containing sugar compounds such as amines, hydroxyl amines, diethylene glycol monoalkyl ethers, sorbitol and the like as an anticorrosive and water is disclosed. Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 9-96911 discloses a stripper composition composed of hydroxyl amines, water, amines having an acid dissociation constant (pKa) of 7.5 to 13, a water-soluble polar organic solvent, and an anticorrosive agent. However, the stripper compositions are deteriorated by harsh high temperature processes, dry etching, ashing, and ion implantation processes, and are peeled off from photoresist etch residues generated by reaction with metallic by-products in the cross-cured photoresist film and etching process. In the corrosion protection performance of the copper and copper alloy film, which is a resist and a photoresist conductive underlayer, is not sufficient. In addition, the hydroxyl amine compound at high temperature conditions is unstable, there is a problem that decomposes over time.
상기와 같은 다양한 스트리퍼 조성물들은 구성 성분과 성분간의 함량비에 따라 포토레지스트 박리성, 금속 부식성, 박리 후의 세정공정의 다양성, 작업 재현성 및 보관 안정성, 경제성 면에서 현저히 차이가 나며 다양한 공정 조건에 대하여 최 적 성능을 갖는 경제적인 스트리퍼 조성물의 개발이 계속 요구되고 있다.Such various stripper compositions vary considerably in terms of photoresist peelability, metal corrosiveness, variety of cleaning processes after peeling, work reproducibility and storage stability, and economic efficiency, depending on the content ratio between components. There is a continuing need for the development of economical stripper compositions with low performance.
한편, 액정 표시 장치가 대형화되고 대량생산이 이루어짐에 따라 스트리퍼의 사용량이 많은 딥(dipping) 방식보다는 낱장식으로 처리하는 매엽식(single wafer treatment method) 설비를 이용한 포토레지스트의 박리가 일반화되고 있고 이 설비에 적합한 스트리퍼 조성물이 소개되고 있다.On the other hand, as liquid crystal displays become larger and mass-produced, photoresist stripping using a single wafer treatment method is more common than a dipping method, which uses a lot of strippers. Stripper compositions suitable for the installation are introduced.
그 예를 들면, 대한민국 특허공개 제 2000-8103호는 5 내지 15 중량%의 알칸올 아민, 35 내지 55 중량%의 설폭사이드 또는 설폰 화합물, 35 내지 55 중량%의 글리콜 에테르를 포함하는 스트리퍼 조성물을 개시하였고, 대한민국 특허공개 제 2000-8553호는 10 내지 30 중량%의 수용성 아민 화합물, 디에틸렌글리콜 모노알킬에테르와 N-알킬 피롤리디논, 또는 히드록시알킬 피롤리디논의 총함량이 70 내지 90 중량%인 것을 특징으로 하는 스트리퍼 조성물을 제시하였다. 그러나, 상기 조성물들은 금속 부식성은 양호하나 저온 박리력이 다소 약한 단점이 있다.For example, Korean Patent Publication No. 2000-8103 discloses a stripper composition comprising 5 to 15% by weight of alkanol amine, 35 to 55% by weight of sulfoxide or sulfone compound, and 35 to 55% by weight of glycol ether. Korean Patent Publication No. 2000-8553 discloses a total content of 10 to 30% by weight of a water-soluble amine compound, diethylene glycol monoalkyl ether and N-alkyl pyrrolidinone, or hydroxyalkyl pyrrolidinone. A stripper composition is presented, characterized in that weight percent. However, the compositions have a disadvantage in that the metal corrosiveness is good but the low temperature peel strength is rather weak.

If the amount of the water-soluble organic amine compound is less than 5 parts by weight, the peeling force on the modified photoresist is insufficient. If the amount of the water-soluble organic amine compound is greater than 50 parts by weight, the corrosion resistance of the conductive metal film of the lower layer of the photoresist is increased.

In addition, the organic solvent of the present invention, in addition to functioning as a solvent, lowers the surface tension of the stripper to improve the wetting property of the photoresist film.
이러한 유기용매의 예를 들면 알킬렌 글리콜류, 알킬렌글리콜 모노알킬에테르류 및 극성 비양자성 용제류로 이루어진 군으로부터 1 종 이상 선택되는 화합물을 사용하는 것이 바람직하다. 상기 알킬렌 글리콜류의 구체적인 예로는 모노에틸렌글리콜, 디에틸렌글리콜, 트리에틸렌글리콜, 테트라에틸렌글리콜, 프로필렌글리콜, 디프로필렌글리콜, 트리프로필렌글리콜, 테트라프로필렌글리콜이 있다. 상기 알킬렌글리콜 모노알킬에테르류의 구체적인 예로는 디에틸렌글리콜 모노메틸에테르(메틸 카비톨, MDG), 디에틸렌글리콜 모노에틸에테르(에틸 카비톨, EDG), 디에틸렌글리콜 모노부틸에테르(부틸 카비톨, BDG), 디프로필렌글리콜 모노메틸에테르(DPM), 및 디프로필렌글리콜 모노에틸에테르(DPE)가 있다. 상기 극성 비양자성 용제류의 구체적인 예로는 N-메틸피롤리돈(NMP), 감마부티로락톤(GBL), 1,3-디메틸-2-이미다졸리디논(DMI), 디메틸설폭사이드(DMSO), 디메틸아세트아마이드(DMAc), 디메틸포름아마이드(DMF) 및 테트라메틸렌설폰 등이 있다. 본 발명의 조성물에 있어서, 상기 유기용매는 디에틸렌글리콜, 테트라에틸렌글리콜, 디에틸렌글리콜 모노부틸에테르, 또는 N-메틸피롤리돈을 사용하는 것이 더욱 바람직하다.For example, it is preferable to use a compound selected from the group consisting of alkylene glycols, alkylene glycol monoalkyl ethers and polar aprotic solvents. Specific examples of the alkylene glycols include monoethylene glycol, diethylene glycol, triethylene glycol, tetraethylene glycol, propylene glycol, dipropylene glycol, tripropylene glycol, tetrapropylene glycol. Specific examples of the alkylene glycol monoalkyl ethers include diethylene glycol monomethyl ether (methyl carbitol, MDG), diethylene glycol monoethyl ether (ethyl carbitol, EDG), diethylene glycol monobutyl ether (butyl carbitol). , BDG), dipropylene glycol monomethyl ether (DPM), and dipropylene glycol monoethyl ether (DPE). Specific examples of the polar aprotic solvents include N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP), gamma butyrolactone (GBL), 1,3-dimethyl-2-imidazolidinone (DMI), and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). , Dimethylacetamide (DMAc), dimethylformamide (DMF) and tetramethylenesulfone. In the composition of the present invention, the organic solvent is more preferably used diethylene glycol, tetraethylene glycol, diethylene glycol monobutyl ether, or N-methylpyrrolidone.
상기 유기 용매의 사용량은 전체 조성물에 대하여 20 내지 95 중량부가 바람직하며, 그 사용량이 20 중량부 미만이면 스트리퍼의 표면장력이 상승하여 습윤성(wetting)이 저하되며, 95 중량부를 초과하면 스트리퍼의 박리력이 저하된다.The amount of the organic solvent is preferably 20 to 95 parts by weight based on the total composition. When the amount of the organic solvent is less than 20 parts by weight, the surface tension of the stripper is increased, so that wetting is lowered. Is lowered.
본 발명의 포토레지스트용 스트리퍼 조성물에 있어서, (c)의 부식 방지제는 포토레지스트 하부층의 도전성 금속막과 절연막이 손상되지 않도록 하는 화합물을 사용하는 것이 바람직하다. 상기 부식 방지제의 구체적인 예를 들면 상기 화학식 1 및 화학식 2로 이루어진 군으로부터 1종 이상 선택되는 화합물을 사용하는 것이 바람직하다. 더욱 바람직하게는, 5-카르복시벤조트리아졸 부틸 에스테르, 5-카르복시벤조트리아졸 옥틸 에스테르, 5-카르복시벤조트리아졸 도데실 에스테르, 2-머캅토-1-메틸이미다졸, 1-메틸이미다졸 등이 있다.In the stripper composition for photoresists of the present invention, it is preferable that the corrosion inhibitor of (c) uses a compound such that the conductive metal film and the insulating film of the photoresist underlayer are not damaged. Specific examples of the corrosion inhibitor, for example, it is preferable to use a compound selected from the group consisting of the formula (1) and (2). More preferably, 5-carboxybenzotriazole butyl ester, 5-carboxybenzotriazole octyl ester, 5-carboxybenzotriazole dodecyl ester, 2-mercapto-1-methylimidazole, 1-methylimida Sol.
상기 부식 방지제는 기존에 구리막의 부식 방지제로 널리 사용되어온 벤조트리아졸, 톨릴트리아졸 등에 비해 부식 방지 성능이 획기적으로 개선되어, 소량 첨 가시에도 포토레지스트 하부층의 구리 또는 구리합금막의 부식을 일으키지 않을 뿐만 아니라 경화된 포토레지스트의 잔류물을 제거하는 데에도 매우 효과적으로 작용한다.The anti-corrosion agent is significantly improved in anti-corrosion performance compared to benzotriazole, tolyl triazole, etc., which has been widely used as an anti-corrosion agent of copper films, and does not cause corrosion of the copper or copper alloy film of the photoresist underlayer even in a small amount of visible light. It also works very effectively to remove residues of the cured photoresist.
따라서, 상기 부식 방지제의 사용량은 전체 조성물에 대하여 0.01 내지 5 중량부로 사용하는 것이 바람직하다. 상기 부식 방지제의 사용량이 0.01 중량부 미만이면 박리하고자 하는 기판이 장시간 박리액과 접촉할 때 금속배선에서 부분적인 부식현상이 일어날 수 있으며, 5 중량부를 초과하여 사용될 경우에는 박리력을 감소시킬 수 있고, 추가적인 부식방지 성능 향상을 기대할 수 없으며, 조성물 가격이 상승하여 가격대비 성능면에서 비효율적인 문제가 있다.Therefore, the amount of the corrosion inhibitor is preferably used in 0.01 to 5 parts by weight based on the total composition. When the amount of the corrosion inhibitor is less than 0.01 part by weight, partial corrosion may occur in the metal wiring when the substrate to be peeled is in contact with the stripping solution for a long time, and when used in excess of 5 parts by weight, the peeling force may be reduced. In addition, the additional anti-corrosion performance can not be expected, there is a problem that the cost of the composition is inefficient in terms of price-performance ratio.
또한, 본 발명의 포토레지스트용 스트리퍼 조성물은 (d) 물, 및 (e) 수용성 비이온성 계면 활성제를 추가로 더욱 포함하여 수계 스트리퍼 조성물을 제공할 수도 있다.In addition, the stripper composition for photoresists of the present invention may further comprise (d) water, and (e) a water-soluble nonionic surfactant to provide an aqueous stripper composition.
상기 (d) 물의 사용량은 전체 조성물에 대하여 최대 30 중량부로 사용하는 것이 바람직하고, 더욱 바람직하게는 10 내지 25 중량부가 좋다. 이때, 물을 일정량 이상 함유하면 50 ℃ 이하의 저온 박리 공정에서 더욱 우수한 박리력을 나타내게 되지만, 물의 함량이 30 중량부를 초과하면 포토레지스트 하부의 금속배선을 부식시킬 수 있으며, 스트리퍼 조성물의 유기물에 대한 용해력 및 포토레지스트 박리력이 저하된다.The amount of the water (d) is preferably used at most 30 parts by weight based on the total composition, more preferably 10 to 25 parts by weight. At this time, if a certain amount of water is contained more excellent peeling force in the low temperature peeling process below 50 ℃, but if the content of water exceeds 30 parts by weight may corrode the metal wiring of the lower portion of the photoresist, Solving power and photoresist peeling force are lowered.
상기 (e) 수용성 비이온성 계면활성제는 물의 함량이 증가할 때 스트리퍼의 표면장력을 저하시키기 위해 필수적으로 사용되고, 또한 변질된 포토레지스트의 기 판으로부터의 박리 후, 재침착(redeposition) 현상을 방지하는 측면에서 효과가 있다.The (e) water-soluble nonionic surfactant is essentially used to lower the surface tension of the stripper when the water content is increased, and also prevents redeposition after peeling from the substrate of the deteriorated photoresist. In terms of effectiveness.
상기 수용성 비이온성 계면활성제는 하기 화학식 3으로 표시되는 수용성 비이온성 계면 활성제를 사용하는 것이 바람직하다. 특히 하기 화학식 3으로 표시되는 계면활성제는 염기성이 강한 스트리퍼 조성물에서도 화학적 변화를 일으키지 않고, 물과 상기한 스트리퍼 조성물에 사용 가능한 유기 용제와의 상용성이 우수하며, 스트리퍼의 박리성을 향상시킬 수 있다.As the water-soluble nonionic surfactant, it is preferable to use a water-soluble nonionic surfactant represented by the following formula (3). In particular, the surfactant represented by the following formula (3) is excellent in compatibility with water and the organic solvent used in the stripper composition described above, without causing chemical changes even in the highly basic stripper composition, it is possible to improve the stripper peeling properties .
[화학식 3][Formula 3]
(상기 화학식 3에서,(In Chemical Formula 3,
R4는 수소 또는 메틸기이고; T는 수소, 메틸기 또는 에틸기이며; m은 1 내지 4의 정수이고; n은 1 내지 50의 정수이다.)R 4 is hydrogen or a methyl group; T is hydrogen, methyl group or ethyl group; m is an integer from 1 to 4; n is an integer from 1 to 50.)
상기 수용성 비이온성 계면활성제의 사용량은 상기 스트리퍼 성분들의 종류와 성분비에 따라 달라지며 물이 포함되지 않을 경우 사용치 않아도 무방하다. 물의 함량이 많아지면 최대 1 중량부 까지 사용 가능하며, 보다 바람직하게는 0.01 내지 0.3 중량부의 양이 효과적이다. 상기 수용성 계면 활성제의 함량이 1 중량%를 초과하면 특별한 개선점이 없고 점도가 상승할 뿐만 아니라 조성물 가격이 올라 경제성이 없다. 일반적으로 점도가 낮을수록 저온 박리력은 우수하다.The amount of the water-soluble nonionic surfactant depends on the type and ratio of the stripper components and may not be used when water is not included. If the amount of water increases, up to 1 part by weight can be used, more preferably 0.01 to 0.3 parts by weight is effective. If the content of the water-soluble surfactant exceeds 1% by weight, there is no special improvement and the viscosity is increased, and the composition price is high and there is no economy. In general, the lower the viscosity, the better the low temperature peel force.
