【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は半導体の微細加工などを行う際に用いるフォトレジスト用の高分子化合物と、この高分子化合物を含有するフォトレジスト用樹脂組成物、及び半導体の製造方法に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
半導体製造工程で用いられるポジ型フォトレジスト用樹脂は、基板密着性を示す機能と、露光によって光酸発生剤から発生する酸により脱離してアルカリ現像液に対して可溶になる機能が必要である。また、フォトレジスト用樹脂は、ドライエッチング耐性をも具備している必要がある。特に、露光工程での光源として、現在エキシマレーザーのArFを使用し、ギガオーダーの半導体への期待は高まっている。しかし、ArFは遠紫外で193nmの波長であることから、レジスト材料も紫外線領域での透明性が要求され,新規なモノマーが提案されている。
【0003】
その中において、ラクトン骨格を含む多環脂環式化合物は、基盤密着性の機能を持ち、さらにエッチング耐性が期待され最近注目をあびている。その中で、ノルボルナン骨格を応用したものとして、特開2000−26446や、特開2000−159758があるが、前者には極性基はラクトン骨格のみで、レジスト材としての有機溶媒への溶解性に難があり、後者はモノマー合成に際して、アルキル基を含んだシクロペンタジエンを必要とし、経済性に問題を残す。いずれにしても、いまだ十分なる機能を有し、しかも経済性あるラクトン骨格を含むモノマーは開発されていない。
【0004】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
従って、本発明の目的は、基板に対する密着性、及び有機溶媒への溶解性とエッチング耐性とをバランスよく兼ね備えた新規なフォトレジスト用高分子化合物を提供することにある。
【0005】
本発明の他の目的は、微細なパターンを高い精度で形成できるフォトレジスト用樹脂組成物、及び半導体の製造方法を提供することにある。
【0006】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明者らは、上記目的を達成するため鋭意検討した結果、ラクトン環が縮合した特定構造の脂環式骨格を有するモノマー単位を含むポリマーをフォトレジスト用樹脂として用いると、基板に対する密着性及び有機溶媒への溶解性とエッチング耐性とをバランスよく具備したフォトレジスト用高分子化合物が得られることを見出し、本発明を完成した。

【0021】
【発明の実施の形態】
本発明のフォトレジスト用高分子化合物は、ポリマー分子を構成する構造単位として、前記式(I)から選択された少なくとも1種のモノマー単位(繰り返し単位)(以下、「モノマーユニットI」と称することがある)を含んでいる。このモノマーユニットIは、親水性の高いラクトン環及びカルボキシル基を有しているため、基板への密着性を高める密着性付与ユニットとして機能する。また、脂環式炭素環(シクロヘキサン環)をも有しているため、エッチング耐性を高める機能をも有する。更に、ノルボルネン環に置換したカルボキシル基(COOR1)のエステル基であるR1に、酸により分解しアルカリ可溶となる基を導入すれば、酸による脱離性機能も有することになる。
【0022】
モノマーユニットIである式(I)に示したR1としては、メチル、エチル、プロピル、ブチル、ペンチル、ヘキシル基などや置換基を含んだヒドロキシエチル、ヒドロキシブチル基などの置換基を含んでもよい直鎖状炭化水素基や、i−プロピル、s−ブチル、t−ブチル基などの分岐状炭化水素基や、シクロペンチル、シクロヘキシル基などの脂環式炭化水素や、アダマンチル、ノルボニル、トリシクロデカニル、デカヒドロナフチル基などの有橋脂環式炭化水素基や、2−テトラヒドロフラニル、2−テトラヒドロピラニル、2−オキセパニル基などの複素環基などが好適である。また、R1が水素原子であると、アルカリ現像に対し、ぬれ性が改善され、またR1が酸により脱離する基、例えばt−ブチル、2−テトラヒドロフラニル、2−テトラヒドロピラニル、2−オキセパニル基などは好ましい。

本発明のフォトレジスト用樹脂組成物は、前記本発明のフォトレジスト用高分子化合物と光酸発生剤とを含んでいる。
【0049】
光酸発生剤としては、露光により効率よく酸を生成する慣用乃至公知の化合物、例えば、ジアゾニウム塩、ヨードニウム塩(例えば、ジフェニルヨードヘキサフルオロホスフェートなど)、スルホニウム塩(例えば、トリフェニルスルホニウムヘキサフルオロアンチモネート、トリフェニルスルホニウムヘキサフルオロホスフェート、トリフェニルスルホニウムメタンスルホネートなど)、スルホン酸エステル[例えば、1−フェニル−1−(4−メチルフェニル)スルホニルオキシ−1−ベンゾイルメタン、1,2,3−トリスルホニルオキシメチルベンゼン、1,3−ジニトロ−2−(4−フェニルスルホニルオキシメチル)ベンゼン、1−フェニル−1−(4−メチルフェニルスルホニルオキシメチル)−1−ヒドロキシ−1−ベンゾイルメタンなど]、オキサチアゾール誘導体、s−トリアジン誘導体、ジスルホン誘導体(ジフェニルジスルホンなど)、イミド化合物、オキシムスルホネート、ジアゾナフトキノン、ベンゾイントシレートなどを使用できる。これらの光酸発生剤は単独で又は2種以上組み合わせて使用できる。
【0050】
光酸発生剤の使用量は、光照射により生成する酸の強度や前記高分子化合物における各モノマー単位の比率などに応じて適宜選択でき、例えば、前記高分子化合物100重量部に対して0.1〜30重量部、好ましくは1〜25重量部、さらに好ましくは2〜20重量部程度の範囲から選択できる。
【0051】
フォトレジスト用樹脂組成物は、アルカリ可溶性樹脂(例えば、ノボラック樹脂、フェノール樹脂、イミド樹脂、カルボキシル基含有樹脂など)などのアルカリ可溶成分、着色剤(例えば、染料など)、有機溶媒(例えば、炭化水素類、ハロゲン化炭化水素類、アルコール類、エステル類、アミド類、ケトン類、エーテル類、セロソルブ類、カルビトール類、グリコールエーテルエステル類、これらの混合溶媒など)などを含んでいてもよい。
【0052】
このフォトレジスト用樹脂組成物を基材又は基板上に塗布し、乾燥した後、所定のマスクを介して、塗膜(レジスト膜)に光線を露光して(又は、さらに露光後ベークを行い)潜像パターンを形成し、次いで現像することにより、微細なパターンを高い精度で形成できる。
【0053】

Resin for positive photoresist used in the semiconductor manufacturing process needs to have a function of exhibiting substrate adhesion and a function of being desorbed by an acid generated from a photoacid generator upon exposure to be soluble in an alkali developer. is there. Further, the photoresist resin needs to have dry etching resistance. In particular, the excimer laser ArF is currently used as a light source in the exposure process, and expectations for giga-order semiconductors are increasing. However, since ArF has a wavelength of 193 nm in the far ultraviolet, the resist material is also required to be transparent in the ultraviolet region, and a new monomer has been proposed.
[0003]
Among them, polycyclic alicyclic compounds containing a lactone skeleton have recently attracted attention because they have a substrate adhesion function and are expected to have etching resistance. Among them, there are JP-A-2000-26446 and JP-A-2000-159758 as applications of the norbornane skeleton. In the former, the polar group is only a lactone skeleton, and the solubility in an organic solvent as a resist material is improved. In the latter case, the latter requires cyclopentadiene containing an alkyl group, which causes a problem in economy. In any case, no monomer having a sufficient lactone function and having an economical lactone skeleton has been developed.
[0004]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a novel polymer compound for photoresists having a good balance between adhesion to a substrate, solubility in an organic solvent and etching resistance.

However, it is not particularly limited to these.
[0048]
The resin composition for photoresists of the present invention contains the above-mentioned polymer compound for photoresists of the present invention and a photoacid generator.
[0049]
Examples of the photoacid generator include conventional or known compounds that efficiently generate acid upon exposure, such as diazonium salts, iodonium salts (for example, diphenyliodohexafluorophosphate), sulfonium salts (for example, triphenylsulfonium hexafluoroantimony). Nates, triphenylsulfonium hexafluorophosphate, triphenylsulfonium methanesulfonate, etc.), sulfonate esters [eg 1-phenyl-1- (4-methylphenyl) sulfonyloxy-1-benzoylmethane, 1,2,3-tri Sulfonyloxymethylbenzene, 1,3-dinitro-2- (4-phenylsulfonyloxymethyl) benzene, 1-phenyl-1- (4-methylphenylsulfonyloxymethyl) -1-hydroxy-1-benzo Rumetan etc.], oxathiazole derivatives, s- triazine derivatives, disulfone derivatives (diphenyl sulfone) imide compound, an oxime sulfonate, a diazonaphthoquinone, and benzoin tosylate. These photoacid generators can be used alone or in combination of two or more.
[0050]
The amount of the photoacid generator used can be appropriately selected according to the strength of the acid generated by light irradiation, the ratio of each monomer unit in the polymer compound, and the like. It can be selected from a range of about 1 to 30 parts by weight, preferably 1 to 25 parts by weight, and more preferably about 2 to 20 parts by weight.
[0051]
The resin composition for photoresist includes alkali-soluble components such as alkali-soluble resins (for example, novolak resins, phenol resins, imide resins, carboxyl group-containing resins), colorants (for example, dyes), organic solvents (for example, Hydrocarbons, halogenated hydrocarbons, alcohols, esters, amides, ketones, ethers, cellosolves, carbitols, glycol ether esters, mixed solvents thereof, etc.) .
[0052]
This photoresist resin composition is applied onto a substrate or substrate, dried, and then exposed to light on a coating film (resist film) through a predetermined mask (or further subjected to post-exposure baking). By forming the latent image pattern and then developing it, a fine pattern can be formed with high accuracy.
[0053]
Examples of the base material or the substrate include a silicon wafer, metal, plastic, glass, and ceramic. The application of the photoresist resin composition can be performed using a conventional application means such as a spin coater, a dip coater, or a roller coater. The thickness of the coating film is, for example, about 0.1 to 20 μm, preferably about 0.3 to 2 μm.
[0054]
For exposure, light of various wavelengths such as ultraviolet rays and X-rays can be used. For semiconductor resists, g-rays, i-rays, and excimer lasers (eg, XeCl, KrF, KrCl, ArF, ArCl, etc.) are usually used. Etc. are used. The exposure energy is, for example, 1 to 1000 mJ / cm.2, Preferably 10 to 500 mJ / cm2Degree.
[0055]
An acid is generated from the photoacid generator by light irradiation, and this acid quickly removes a protective group (leaving group) such as a carboxyl group of the alkali-soluble unit of the polymer compound, thereby contributing to solubilization. Carboxyl groups and the like are generated. Therefore, a predetermined pattern can be accurately formed by development with water or an alkali developer.
[0056]
【The invention's effect】
The polymer compound for photoresist of the present invention includes a monomer unit having a specific structure of an alicyclic skeleton condensed with a lactone ring, and has a solubility, acid detachment property, etc. due to substitution with a carboxylic acid. Since functions are also added, high etching resistance is expected, and the functions required for photoresists such as adhesion to substrates, solubility in solvents as resists, and affinity with alkaline developers are also provided. It is well-balanced. Moreover, each function can be further improved by combining with other monomers.
[0057]
According to the photoresist resin composition and the semiconductor manufacturing method of the present invention, since the polymer compound having the excellent characteristics as described above is used as a resist, a fine pattern can be formed with high accuracy.
