Book Applications of Raman Spectroscopy in Cu CMP and in BEOL Cleaning Chemistries

This book was released on 2007 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In copper chemical mechanical planarization (CMP), in situ detection of barrier to dielectric layer transition is typically done using an optical reflectance technique. The introduction of carbon doped oxides (CDOs) as low-dielectric constant (k) materials for dielectric layers has opened up the possibility of using spectroscopic techniques for detecting such transitions more efficiently. The vibrational frequencies of the bonds between C, H, O, and Si in these low-k materials may be readily detected by spectroscopic techniques such as Raman and infrared (IR) spectroscopies. Since CMP is carried out in aqueous media, IR spectroscopy is not very desirable due to strong absorption of water in the same region as C-H vibrations (2800 cm-1 to 3300 cm-1). In contrast, Raman spectroscopy shows minimal water interference and can be used to efficiently monitor the signal from CDO films even in aqueous environments that prevail under CMP conditions. The research reported in this dissertation concerns the use of Raman spectroscopy in detecting the transition from tantalum (Ta) barrier layer to CDO dielectric layer, in-situ. Intensities of Raman peaks characteristic of Si-Si vibrations from silicon substrates and C-H vibrations from low-k materials were used for monitoring CDO thickness and detecting removal of Ta layer. An abrasion cell was integrated with a Raman spectrometer to demonstrate the feasibility of Raman monitoring in-situ. Additionally, an alternative method was investigated for monitoring transitions in highly fluorescent low-k materials where Raman can not be used. The fluorescence intensity was used to effectively monitor Ta to low-k transitions. As a secondary objective, the Raman technique was used to monitor the composition of polishing slurries, which in the case of copper CMP, have a rich chemistry, which may change during the course of polishing due to consumption and decomposition of certain constituents. Various aspects, such as small layer thickness (50μm), continuous flow of the slurry, and dynamics of the film removal process pose a great challenge to the monitoring of slurry components between the pad and the wafer. The slurry constituents such as oxidants and corrosion inhibitors have unique signatures that can be detected using spectroscopic techniques. In this study Raman spectroscopy was used to detect and quantify chemical species such as hydroxylamine, benzotriazole and hydrogen peroxide in-situ. A more detailed study pertaining to the protonation of hydroxylamine with respect to the pH was also performed. Finally, surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) was also investigated to improve the detection of pyridine and benzotriazole at low concentrations (100ppm).

Book Electrochemical and Optical Techniques for the Study and Monitoring of Metallic Corrosion

Download or read book Electrochemical and Optical Techniques for the Study and Monitoring of Metallic Corrosion written by M.G.S Ferreira and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 714 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In spite of considerable efforts over the years to understand and combat materials degradation via corrosion processes, many challenges still remain both in the theoretical understanding of the phenomena and in seeking pratical solutions to the perennial problem. Progress has been slow due to the complexity of the processes and the systems involved. Fortunately, in recent years there has been a renaissance in the development of new electrochemical and optical techniques, as well as advances in instrumentation, which have greatly aided our quest to gain insight into the complex mechanisms involved in metallic corrosion and passivation. Numerous scientific meetings, symposia, and workshops have been held allover the world which attest to the frenzy of activities in corrosion science and technology. However, most of these conferences have dealt mainly with recent research results. There appeared to be a need to assess and disseminate our present state of knowledge in the field as regards measurement techniques, theory, and instrumentation. The present NATO Advanced Study Institute was therefore held in Viana do Castelo, Portugal from July 9 to 21, 1989. The Institute consisted of a series of tutorial lectures, poster sessions, and round-table discussions interspersed evenly over the two-week period. It was attended by 75 participants from several countries representing industry, government and university laboratories.

Book In situ Surface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy Investigation of the Surface Films on Alloy 600 and Alloy 690 in Pressurized Water Reactor Primary Water

Download or read book In situ Surface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy Investigation of the Surface Films on Alloy 600 and Alloy 690 in Pressurized Water Reactor Primary Water written by Feng Wang and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alloy 600 is found to be susceptible to stress corrosion cracking (SCC) in Pressurized Water Reactor (PWR) primary water environment. In this study, in-situ Surface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS) is used to characterize surface films formed on Alloy 600 and Alloy 690 in PWR PW at 320oC. A simulated PWR PW system is constructed. In addition, a titanium autoclave is designed for high-temperature electrochemical tests. In this study, we have also measured SERS spectra of surface films formed on unalloyed nickel, unalloyed chromium, Ni-5Cr-8Fe, Ni-10Cr-8Fe, Ni-10Cr and Ni-20Cr. The surface films were formed at different potentials, from -0.9V to -0.5V vs SHE. A formation of NiO film is observed on the surface of nickel at -0.65V, which shows a Raman peak at 540 cm-1 due to crystal defects. For pure chromium, Cr2O3 passive film is formed on its surface. The Raman peaks are located at 540 cm-1 and 610 cm-1. The thickness of Cr2O3 passive film is about several nanometers, depending on the growth time in PWR PW. A peak at 610 cm-1 would likely indicate Cr2O3 and the absence of this peak, in conjunction with a peak at 540 cm-1, would indicate NiO. It is found that the surface films on Ni-5Cr-8Fe and Ni-10Cr-8Fe alloys are composed of Cr2O3 and FeCr2O4 spinel. No spinel oxide peak is observed in the SERS spectra for Ni-10Cr and Ni-20Cr binary alloys, and the surface film on both alloys is Cr2O3. An analysis of SERS spectra indicate that, as alloy's chromium concentration increases, the amount of Cr2O3 included in the alloy's surface film would increase. The surface film of Alloy 600 is composed of Cr2O3 inner layer (IL) and FeCr2O4 outer layer (OL). For short-time growth (10 min), the inner Cr2O3 layer is about 2 - 4 nm thick, and the average size of FeCr2O4 crystallites is about 10 nm. The actual film thickness depends on the growth time and aqueous environment. The surface film formed on Alloy 600 in PWR PW has a minor change if the sample is removed from the autoclave and exposed to air. The surface film of Alloy 690 is entirely a single layer of Cr2O3 (~ 2 nm thick). According to Diffusion Path Analysis, the difference on surface films formed on Alloy 600 and Alloy 690 is a consequence of a change in the relative diffusivity of O and Cr. Our in-situ SERS spectra measured for surface films on Alloy 600 and Alloy 690 are different with most of other people's findings. Three aspects have been considered and discussed. The first, there might be a difference between in-situ and ex-situ characterization techniques. The second, the film growth time in PWR PW is significantly different. The third, different autoclaves are used. The recirculating titanium autoclave is used in this study, while stainless steel autoclave is used in most of other studies, which might cause a change of the concentration of cations in the vicinity of metal surface and a precipitation of cations on the surface of oxides. It is found that the exposure time and testing autoclave might be responsible for the discrepancies between this study and the earlier studies. By using in-situ Surface Enhance Raman Spectroscopy (SERS), we have investigated the surface oxides formed on Alloy 600, Alloy 690, Ni-Cr, and Ni-Cr-Fe alloys in PWR primary water at 320oC. Our in-situ SERS spectra results suggest that SCC susceptibility of Ni-based alloys might be correlating with a formation of surface films formed in PWR primary water.

Book The Application of SERS  Surface Enhanced Raman Scattering  to Study Surface Oxidation Reactions of Phosphonates

Download or read book The Application of SERS Surface Enhanced Raman Scattering to Study Surface Oxidation Reactions of Phosphonates written by Paul B. Dorain and published by . This book was released on 1988 with total page 9 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Surface enhanced Raman scattering has developed into an important spectroscopic tool in the identification of adsorbates on silver, copper, or gold under in situ conditions. This paper describes the first use of this technique to study the kinetics of surface enhanced catalyzed chemical reactions. The reaction of NO2 gas with Ag powder is shown to proceed through the formation of AgNO2 which autocatalytically decomposes into AgNO3, NO, and free Ag which forms Ag microstructures. Recent experiments to elucidate the reactions of DMMP at these catalytically active sites show that H2PO4 and HPO4 are formed on the surface at room temperature. The use of dynamically produced active Ag sites as active filters for phosphonates is discussed. Keywords: Surface Enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS), Phosphonates, Kinetics, Catalysis.
