고성능 전자부품 개발이 진행되면서 나노크기의 분말에 대한 합성연구가 활발히 진행되고 있는 추세이다. 실제 나노크기의 입자는 그 기능이 기존 fm크기의 입자에 비해 뛰어나 많은 연구자들의 관심이 되어 있음에도 불구하고 제품으로 응용된 예는 거의 없는 실정인데 이는 나노크기의 입자라 할지라도 응집이 되어 있거나 작업하기 어렵기 때문이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 응집된 BaTiO$_3$분말에 분산제와 함께 고속볼밀을 하여 이에 따른 분산 효과와 tape casting을 위한 최적 분산 안정성에 대하여 연구하였다. 분산제의 종류와 볼밀시간에 따른 분산효과를 확인하기 위하여 zeta potential 값을 비교하였으며 이러한 분산제의 종류와 볼밀시간에 따라 분산효과가 변하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 분산된 분말에 대해 다른 분자량을 가지는 PVB와 상용바인더를 사용하여 tape casting하였다. 결합제의 종류에 따라 슬러리의 특성이 변화하였으며 분자량이 다른 PVB를 사용하여 성형한 시편을 소결하여 미세구조에 미치는 영향을 확인하였다.

Chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) is one of the most important processes in recent ULSI (Ultra Large Scale Integrated Circuit) manufacturing technology. Recently, ceria slurries with surfactant have recently been used in STI-CMP,[1] became they have high oxide-to-nitride removal selectivity and widen the processing margin The role of the abrasives, however, on the effect of planarization on STI-CMP is not yet clear. In this study, we investigated how the crystal characteristic affects the planarization efficiency of wafer surface with controlling crystallite size and poly crystalline abrasive size independently.

The primary aim of this study is to investigate new semi-abrasive free slurry including acid colloidal silica and hydrogen peroxide for copper chemical-mechanical planarization (CMP). In general, slurry for copper CMP consists of colloidal silica as an abrasive, organic acid as a complex-forming agent, hydrogen peroxide as an oxidizing agent, a film forming agent, a pH control agent and several additives. We developed new semi-abrasive free slurry (SAFS) including below 0.5％ acid colloidal silica. We evaluated additives as stabilizers for hydrogen peroxide as well as accelerators in tantalum nitride CMP process. We also estimated dispersion stability and Zeta potential of the acid colloidal silica with additives. The extent of enhancement in tantalum nitride CMP was verified through anelectrochemical test. This approach may be useful for the application of single and first step copper CMP slurry with one package system.

The slurry stability and removal rate during recycling of slurry in silicon wafer polishing was studied. Average abrasive size of slurry was not changed with recycling time, however, large particles appeared as recycling time increased. Large particles were related foreign substances from pad or abraded silicon flakes during polishing. The removal rate as well as pH of slurry was decreased as recycling time increased. It suggests that the consumption of OH ions during recycling is the main cause of decrease of removal rate. Therefore, it is important to control pH of slurry to obtain optimum removal rate during polishing.

CMP(chemical mechanical polishing) process has been attracted as an essential technology of multi~level interconnection. However, the COO(cost of ownership) is very high, because of high consumable cost. Especially, among the consumables, slurry dominates more than 40%. So, we focused how to reduce the consumption of raw slurry In this paper, we presented the pH changes of diluted slurry and pH control as a function of KOH contents. Also, the removal rates of slurry with different dilution ratio were investigated. Finally, the CMP characteristics were discussed as a function of silica (SiO$_2$) abrasive contents.

In this work, we have studied the CMP characteristics by mixing of original slurry and used slurry in order to investigated the possibility of recycle of used silica slurry. The removal rate and within-wafer non-uniformity (WIWNU) were measured as a function of different slurry composition. Also, we compared the CMP characteristics between self-developed KOH-based silica abrasive slurry and the original slurry. Our experimental results revealed comparable removal rate and good planarity with commercial products.

Recently advancing mobile communication tools and I.T industry, semiconductor device is requested more integrated, faster operation time and more scaled-down. Because of these reasons semiconductor device is requested multilayer interconnection. For the multilayer interconnection chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) becomes one of the most useful process in semiconductor manufacturing process. In this experiment, we focus on understand the characterize and improve the CMP technology by control of slurry flow rate. Consequently, we obtain that optimal flow rate of slurry is 170ml/min, since optimal conditions are less chemical flow and performance high with good selectivity to Ta. If we apply this results to copper CMP process. it is thought that we will be able to obtain better yield.

The effect of organic solvent mixture ratio on the rheology property of slurry and thickness control of ceramic green sheet was investigated. For selecting a suitable dispersant multiple light scattering method was used to evaluate the particle migration velocity and variation of clarification layer thickness. Using the selected dispersant the dispersion property of solution according to solvent mixture ratio was investigated. Binder and plasticizers were added to formulate slurries and their viscosity was evaluated according to solvent mixture ratio. Ceramic green sheets with average thickness of 30, 50 urn were fabricated via tape casting and their thickness tolerances measured. As a result according to solvent mixture ratio the solution and slurry properties varied and for the mixture ratio of ethanol/toluene of 80/20 the ceramic green sheet with the lowest thickness tolerance was obtained.

Replacement of aluminum by copper for interconnections in the semiconductor industry has raised a number of important issues. The integration of copper interconnection can be carried out by CMP(chemical mechanical polishing) is used to planarize the surface topography. In this experiments, we evaluated the optimization of several conditions for chemical additives during Cu CMP process. It was presented that the main cause of grown particle size is tartaric acid. The particle size was in inverse propotion to a quantity of bead and the time of milling process. The slurry stabilizer and oxidizer have been shown to have very good effect by addition in later milling process.
