Abstract The paper focuses on the pad contamination defect removal technique. The defect is detected at the outgoing inspection step. The failure analysis results showed that the defect is Fluorine type contamination. The failure analysis indicated many source contributors mainly from Fluorine based processes. The focus is in the present work is in the rework method for the removal of this defect. The combination of wet and dry etch processing in the rework routine is utilized for the removal of the defect and preventive action plans for in-line were introduced and implemented to avoid this event in the future. The reliability of the wafer is verified using various tests including full map electrical, electrical sort, gate oxide breakdown (GOI) and wafer reliability level, passivation quick kill to ensure the integrity of the wafer after undergoing the rework routine. The wafer is monitored closely over a period of time to ensure it has no mushroom defect.

This is the first demonstration of sidewall slope control of InP via holes with an etch depth of more than 10 μm for 3D integration. The process for the InP via holes utilizes a common SiO2 layer as an InP etch mask and conventional inductively coupled plasma (ICP) etcher operated at room temperature and simple gas mixtures of Cl2/Ar for InP dry etch. Sidewall slope of InP via holes is controlled within the range of 80 to 90 degrees by changing the ICP power in the ICP etcher and adopting a dry-etched SiO2 layer with a sidewall slope of 70 degrees. Furthermore, the sidewall slope control of the InP via holes in a wide range of 36 to 69 degrees is possible by changing the RF power in the etcher and introducing a wet-etched SiO2 layer with a small sidewall slope of 2 degrees; this wide slope control is due to the change of InP-to-SiO2 selectivity with RF power.

Titanium nitride (TiN) is widely used as a hard mask film protecting the inter-level dielectric (ILD) before metal or plating seed layer deposition steps. It is common practice to use a wet etch in order to remove residues formed during the ILD dry-etch step, and at the same time to remove some or all of the exposed TiN. From its thermochemical properties, it might be predicted that wet etching of TiN should be easy, since it is quite unstable with respect to both plain and oxidative hydrolysis. For example, in acidic solutions at 25°C [1, :
