    • The various embodiments described in the specification provide improved mechanisms of removal of unwanted deposits on the bevel edge to improve process yield. The embodiments provide apparatus and methods of treating the bevel edge of a copper plated substrate to convert the copper at the bevel edge to a copper compound that can be wet etched with a fluid at a high etch selectivity in comparison to copper. In one embodiment, the wet etch of the copper compound at high selectivity to copper allows the removal of the non-volatile copper at substrate bevel edge in a wet etch processing chamber. The plasma treatment at bevel edge allows the copper at bevel edge to be removed at precise spatial control to about 2 mm or below, such as about 1 mm, about 0.5 mm or about 0.25 mm, to the very edge of substrate. In addition, the apparatus and methods described above for bevel edge copper removal do not have the problems of copper etching fluid being splashed on the device regions to cause defects and thinning of copper films. Therefore, device yield can be greatly improved.
    • 在说明书中描述的各种实施例提供了改进的机理,去除斜边上的不需要的沉积物以提高工艺产量。 实施例提供了处理镀铜衬底的斜边缘以将斜面边缘处的铜转化为铜化合物的设备和方法,铜化合物可以与铜相比以高蚀刻选择性用流体进行湿蚀刻。 在一个实施方案中,铜化合物对铜的高选择性的湿法蚀刻允许在湿蚀刻处理室中在衬底斜面边缘处去除非挥发性铜。 在斜边缘处的等离子体处理允许在精确的空间控制下将斜角边缘处的铜去除到衬底的最边缘约2mm或更小,例如约1mm,约0.5mm或约0.25mm。 此外,上述用于斜边铜剥离的装置和方法不存在铜蚀刻流体溅射在器件区域上以引起铜膜缺陷和变薄的问题。 因此,可以大大提高器件产量。
