Silica abrasive plays an important role in chemical mechanical planarization (CMP) of copper. In this paper, effect of different silica abrasive concentrations on copper removal rate and planarization performance of copper was investigated. The results show that the copper removal rate was increased as the concentration of silica abrasive increase. However, excessive abrasive will lead to a decreased copper removal rate. The initial step height values of the multilayer copper wafers were all about 2500Å, and after being polished for 30s, the remaining values of step height of slurry A, B, C and D were 717 Å, 906 Å, 1222 Å and 1493 Å. It indicates that alkaline copper slurries with different abrasive concentrations all had a good planarization performance on copper patterned wafer CMP. As the abrasive concentration increased, the planarization capability was enhanced. |
