| abstract |
This disclosure relates to a cleaning composition that contains 1) at least one redox agent; 2) at least one first chelating agent, the first chelating agent being a polyaminopolycarboxylic acid; 3) at least one second chelating agent different from the first chelating agent, the second chelating agent containing at least two nitrogen-containing groups; 4) at least one metal corrosion inhibitor, the metal corrosion inhibitor being a substituted or unsubstituted benzotriazole; 5) at least one organic solvent selected from the group consisting of water soluble alcohols, water soluble ketones, water soluble esters, and water soluble ethers; 6) water; and 7) optionally, at least one pH adjusting agent, the pH adjusting agent being a base free of a metal ion. This disclosure also relates to a method of using the above composition for cleaning a semiconductor substrate. |
