Abstract: A cleaning composition including a polyamino carboxylic salt, an acid and water is provided. The content of the polyamino carboxylic salt is 0.01 wt % to 0.5 wt %. The content of the acid is 0.01 wt % to 0.5 wt %. The remaining portion of the cleaning composition is water.

Abstract: A chemical mechanical polishing composition, the polishing composition includes polishing abrasive, an oxidizing agent, an accelerating compound, an inhibitor, a co-inhibitor, and a solvent as the remaining. The composition can maintain a high removal rate through polishing, meantime it has a feature to inhibit static etch rate and lower the defect of polishing including metal dishing and erosion. Hence it needs no change of the composition for simultaneously removing a most part of a metal layer, particularly for a first stage of polishing bulk copper layer and for a second micro-polishing stage of removing the remaining less copper; the present invention has the advantage of simplifying processing and reducing waste.

Abstract: A slurry composition has an amount of 100% and includes abrasives, an acid-base pH adjustor, an oxidant and water. A content of the abrasives is 10 wt % to 40 wt %, and a polydisperse index of the abrasives sizes is greater than 1.8. A content of the acid-base pH adjustor is 0.01 wt % to 10 wt %. A content of the oxidant is 0.01 wt % to 10 wt %. A remaining portion of the slurry composition is water.

Abstract: An acidic post-CMP cleaning composition includes at least one polyamino-polycarboxylic acid, or salt thereof; at least one hydroxycarboxylic acid, or salt thereof; and the remainder being substantially water. The acidic cleaning composition also includes a surfactant. The acidic post-CMP cleaning composition has a pH of 1 to 5, and is useful for removing the contaminants from the wafer surface after a CMP process without making roughness worse.

Abstract: The sarcosine compounds used as a corrosion inhibitor according to the present invention include sarcosine and salt compounds thereof. The corrosion inhibitor is used in chemical mechanical polishing compositions or post CMP clean agents, which forms a protective film on the surface of a work piece to prevent the work piece from corrosion in chemical mechanical polishing, and thus common residue defect on the surface of a work piece due to the use of a conventional corrosion inhibitor (e.g. benzotriazole (BTA)) can be improved or the surface of a work piece can be protected from corrosion in post-CMP cleaning.
