Cleaning formulations
A composition and method for removing copper-containing post-etch and/or post-ash residue from patterned microelectronic devices is described. The removal composition includes water, a fluoride ion source, an alkanolamine, sulfuric acid, and an organic acid. The compositions effectively remove the copper and cobalt-containing post-etch residue from the microelectronic device without damaging exposed low-k dielectric and metal interconnect materials.
