Abstract
The invention discloses a method for forming a conductive layer with an inclination angle, which utilizes an etching solution with a lower etching temperature of about 25-40 ℃ or two etching solutions with different temperatures (for example, the temperatures are respectively 35-30 ℃ and 30-25 ℃), and carries out wet etching on a single conductive layer or a conductive layer with a multilayer structure on a substrate so as to obtain a proper inclination angle of the conductive layer.
Description
Technical field
The invention relates to that a kind of formation has the method for inclined conductive layer, and particularly relevant for the low etching solution temperature of a kind of application, and formation has the method for the conductive layer at suitable inclination angle.
Background technology
Being applied to the etching technique of display processes (as LCD) and semiconductor related industry at present, mainly is to be divided into wet etching and two kinds of technology of dry etching.The advantage of dry etch technique be for micro-structural control better, make the technique component electrical performance good, but the solid byproducts ability of particulate and reaction generation is relatively poor in its vacuum board opposing environment itself.The advantage of wet etch technique is to be that its technology is simple, with low cost, have outstanding etching selectivity, and output speed (Throughput) is fast.Because the chemical reaction that wet etching carries out there is no the certain party tropism, be to belong to a kind of isotropism (Isotropic) etching, so the control of wet etching process just seems quite important.The major parameter of control wet etching process has: etchant concentration, etching period, reaction temperature etc.Wherein, etchant concentration increases, but the accelerated reaction material arrives and leave the speed on etched thing surface, and reaction temperature has then been controlled the speed that chemical reaction carries out.In addition, reactant in the etching solution carries out the quality transmission toward film surface except relying on diffusion, if suitably stir etching solution, also can promote the ability that reactant is transported to film surface, so the alr mode of etching solution also can influence wet etching process so that flow of solution to be provided.
Applicable conductor material is a lot of in thin-film transistor, for example be metal molybdenum (Mo)/neodymium aluminium (AlNd), crome metal (Cr)/neodymium aluminium (AlNd) or titanium (Ti)/aluminium (Al)/titanium (Ti) etc., select suitable wet etching solution according to different conductor materials for use.With the metal molybdenum is example, in the past with hydrogen peroxide (H
2O
2) as molybdenum etching liquid, to obtain the section at the suitable inclination angle of tool (Taper), yet hydrogen peroxide is a strong oxidizer, for present most technology board, can cause improper oxidation, if use hydrogen peroxide and change all technology boards, then cost certainly will significantly improve, and does not meet economic benefit.Therefore, carry out the plain conductor wet etching of (comprising molybdenum) with the aluminium etching solution for about 45 ℃ in temperature at present.The aluminium etching solution is mainly by nitric acid (HNO
3), phosphoric acid (H
3PO
4), acetic acid (CH
3COOH) and water form because its etch-rate is the most stable, be widely used in the semiconductor technology at present.Main etching principle is to utilize nitric acid with the metal level oxidation, comes the decomposing oxidation thing by phosphoric acid and water again; Acetic acid to suppress dissociating of nitric acid, is kept the service time of the stable of etching solution and prolongation etching solution then as buffer (BufferAgent).The correlated response formula is as follows:

Yet when about 45 ℃ of temperature were carried out wet etching, the speed that metal is removed was too fast, and too fast rate of etch can make metal level can't form predetermined inclination angle (Taper).
