    摘要: A method and cleaning solution that removes contaminants from a dielectric material and polished surfaces of copper interconnect structures prior to an electroless deposition of a capping layer without substantially adversely affecting the interconnect formed therefrom are disclosed. The cleaning solution includes combinations of a core mixture and sulfuric acid or sulfonic compounds such as sulfonic acids that include methanesulfonic acid. In one embodiment, the core mixture includes a citric acid solution and a pH adjuster such as tetra-methyl ammonium hydroxide or ammonia. One embodiment of the method includes providing a planarized substrate, applying the cleaning solution to the substrate to simultaneously clean at least one metal feature and a dielectric material of the substrate, and depositing the metal capping layer selectively on the at least one metal feature using electroless deposition.

    摘要: An inventive brush and scrubbing device is provided for simultaneously scrubbing both planar and profiled (e.g., edge) surfaces of a thin disk such as a semiconductor wafer. The inventive brush has a contact surface having two portions, a planar portion for contacting a planar surface of a wafer, and a profiled portion for contacting an edge surface of a wafer. The profile of the profiled portion preferably follows the edge profile of a wafer to be cleaned by the brush. The profiled portion may have a higher modulus of elasticity than does the planar portion. Preferably the brushes are roller type PVA brushes having a plurality of nodules formed thereon.
