Composition for wet etching of silicon dioxide

摘要

Provided is an etching composition for electively removing silicon dioxide at a high etch rate, more particularly, a composition for wet etching of silicon dioxide, including 1 to 40 wt % of hydrogen fluoride (HF); 5 to 40 wt % of ammonium hydrogen fluoride (NH₄HF₂); and water, and further including a surfactant to improve selectivity of the silicon dioxide and a silicon nitride film. Since the composition for wet etching of silicon dioxide has the high etch selectivity of the silicon dioxide to the silicon nitride film, it is useful for selectively removing silicon dioxide.
