초록

Chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) achieves surface planrity through combined mechanical and chemical means. The role of slurry is very important in metal CMP. Slurry used in metal CMP normally consists of oxidizers, complexing agents, corrosion inhibitors and abrasives. This paper investigates the effects of citric acid as a complexing agent for Cu CMP with $H_2O_2$. In order to study chemical effects of citric acid, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) was peformed on Cu sample after etching test. XPS results reveal that CuO, $Cu(OH)_2$ layer decrease but $CU/CU_2O$ layer increase on Cu sample surface. To investigate nanomechanical properties of Cu sample surface, nanoindentation was performed on Cu sample. Results of nanoindentation indicate wear resistance of Cu surface decrease. According to decrease of wear resistance on Cu surface removal rate increases from $285\;{\AA}/min\;to\;8645\;{\AA}/min$ in Cu CMP.
