Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Adhesion of an underlying diffusion barrier metal film and an electroless copper plating film with respect to an insulating film can be improved. A method for manufacturing a wiring structure includes a process of forming the underlying diffusion barrier metal film 5 , including a base metal with respect to copper, on the insulating film 1 ; and a process of forming the electroless copper plating film 6 on the underlying diffusion barrier metal film 5 by performing an electroless copper displacement plating process with a copper displacement plating solution. The copper displacement plating solution is an acidic copper displacement plating solution of pH1 to pH4, in which copper ions are contained but a reducing agent for reducing the copper ions is not contained.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

We claim: 1. A method for manufacturing a wiring structure, comprising: providing an object to be processed on which an insulating film is formed; forming an underlying diffusion barrier metal film, including a base metal with respect to copper, on the insulating film; and forming an electroless copper plating film on the underlying diffusion barrier metal film by performing an electroless copper displacement plating process with a copper displacement plating solution, wherein the copper displacement plating solution is an acidic copper displacement plating solution of pH1 to pH4, in which copper ions are contained but a reducing agent for reducing the copper ions is not contained. 2. The method for manufacturing a wiring structure of claim 1 , wherein the copper displacement plating solution includes TMAH or KOH as a pH adjuster. 3. The method for manufacturing a wiring structure of claim 1 , wherein the copper displacement plating solution includes EDTA as a pH stabilizer. 4. The method for manufacturing a wiring structure of claim 1 , wherein the copper displacement plating solution includes polyethylene glycol as a surfactant.
