- the surface of the semiconductor substrate is contaminated with these impurities, it may adversely affect the electrical characteristics of the semiconductor and reduce the reliability of the device. Therefore, it is desirable to introduce a cleaning process after the CMP process to remove these impurities from the surface of the semiconductor substrate.
- JP-A-2006-5246 As a cleaning agent (surface treatment composition) used in such a cleaning process, for example, JP-A-2006-5246 (corresponding to US Patent Application Publication No. 2005/282718) includes water-soluble polysaccharides and the like A rinsing composition containing a water-soluble polymer and water is disclosed.

- the cleaning process performed after the chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) process is to remove impurities (particles, metal contamination, organic residues, foreign matters such as pad scraps) remaining on the surface of the semiconductor substrate (polished polishing target). It is done for the purpose. At this time, these foreign substances can be removed by cleaning with a cleaning agent disclosed in, for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2006-5246 (corresponding to US Patent Application Publication No. 2005/282718).
- a cleaning agent disclosed in, for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2006-5246 (corresponding to US Patent Application Publication No. 2005/282718).
- the present inventors have intensively studied to achieve more efficient removal of foreign matters. As a result, it has been found that by using the surface treatment composition according to the present invention, foreign matters such as particles and organic residue can be removed very efficiently.

- the hydrophilicity / hydrophobicity of the surface of a polished polishing object such as a semiconductor substrate varies depending on the polishing object. Particularly, a polishing object with high water repellency is washed with water on the surface of the polished polishing object in this state. Since it becomes difficult for the agent to come into contact with the liquid, it is difficult for the foreign matter to be removed from the surface of the polished object, and the cleaning effect is reduced.
- the surface treatment composition of the present invention contains a water-soluble polymer. Therefore, the hydrophilicity (wetting property) of the surface of the polished object can be enhanced by the effect of the water-soluble polymer.
- the surface treatment composition of the present invention by performing the surface treatment of the polished polishing object using the surface treatment composition of the present invention, it is possible to promote the removal of foreign substances from the surface of the polished polishing object, and the adhered foreign substances Is prevented from drying and sticking to the surface of the polished object. Therefore, according to the surface treatment composition of the present invention, a good foreign matter removing effect can be obtained.
- the surface treatment composition of the present invention also contains a specific anionic surfactant.
- the anionic surfactant assists the water-soluble polymer when removing foreign substances, and particularly promotes the removal of organic residue. As a result, the foreign matter removal effect is further enhanced.
- the anionic surfactant according to the present invention can form micelles due to the affinity between a part other than the anionic group and a foreign substance (particularly a hydrophobic component). Therefore, it is considered that the foreign substances that are hydrophobic components are effectively removed by dissolving or dispersing the micelles in the surface treatment composition.
- the anionic surfactant according to the present invention includes a specific anionic group (sulfonic acid (salt) group, sulfate (salt) group, phosphonic acid (salt) group, phosphoric acid (salt) group, or phosphinic acid. (Salt) group).

- the specific anionic group is anionized so that it is easily adsorbed on the surface of the polished object to be polished. As a result, it is considered that the surface of the polished object to be polished is coated with the anionic surfactant.
- the anionic group of the anionic surfactant is easily adsorbed to the remaining foreign matters (particularly those that are easily cationic), the surface of the foreign matter becomes anionic. Accordingly, the foreign matter whose surface becomes anionic and the anionized anionic group of the anionic surfactant adsorbed on the surface of the polished object to be polished are electrostatically repelled. When the foreign matter is anionic, the foreign matter itself and the anionized anionic group present on the polished object are electrostatically repelled. Therefore, it is considered that foreign matters can be effectively removed by utilizing such electrostatic repulsion.
- the portion other than the anionic group (hydrophobic structure site) of the anionic surfactant is directed to the surface side of the polished polishing object due to its hydrophobicity, and is a hydrophilic structure site.
- the anionic group is directed to the side opposite to the polished polishing object surface side.
- the surface treatment composition containing an anionic surfactant together with the water-soluble polymer has an extremely improved foreign matter removal effect.
- the water-soluble polymer and the anionic surfactant adsorbed on the surface of the polished object to be polished can be easily removed by further washing with water.
