Abstract: Provided are a silicon nitride film etching composition, a method of etching a silicon nitride film using the same, and a manufacturing method of a semiconductor device. Specifically, a silicon nitride film may be stably etched with a high selection ratio relative to a silicon oxide film, and when the composition is applied to an etching process at a high temperature and a semiconductor manufacturing process, not only no precipitate occurs but also anomalous growth in which the thickness of the silicon oxide film is rather increased does not occur, thereby minimizing defects and reliability reduction.

Abstract: A cleaning composition for removing post-etch or post-ash residues from a semiconductor substrate, and a cleaning method using the same are disclosed. The cleaning composition can comprise water; a fluorine compound; an alkanolamine compound; and a corrosion inhibitor. The corrosion inhibitor is a mixture of a first corrosion inhibitor and a second corrosion inhibitor. When using the cleaning composition, it is possible to efficiently remove the residues of various aspects existing on a surface of the substrate or the semiconductor device without damage to a substrate or a semiconductor device including various metal layers, insulating layers, etc. Accordingly, when a highly integrated and miniaturized semiconductor device is manufactured, it may be advantageously applied to the removal of residues generated on the surface of the substrate or the semiconductor device.

Specifically, the present invention relates to a cleaner composition that can be used to remove metal oxides and metal abrasive particles arising during metal polishing, such as chemical mechanical planarization (CMP). The cleaner composition has an improved ability to complex with metal abrasive particles. In addition, the cleaner composition maintains its ability to reduce metal abrasive particles, achieving improved stability. Therefore, the cleaner composition can be used for cleaning the surface of a metal with an increased ability to prevent corrosion of the metal surface.

Thus, the photoresist pattern can be easily removed from a substrate, thereby improving the removing ability of the composition. In addition, a residual amount of the photoresist pattern may be minimized, thereby improving the reliability of removing the photoresist pattern.
