随着集成电路制程节点不断微缩, 光刻系统对氟化钙(CaF2)光学材料的表面质量提出了原子级光滑度的苛刻要求。针对传统碱性二氧化硅抛光液去除速率低、易腐蚀等问题, 本研究开发了一种用于CaF2化学机械抛光的高效、稳定且环境友好的近中性二氧化铈(CeO2)抛光液。采用尿素沉淀法合成了三种不同粒径的单分散球形CeO2磨料, 并以聚丙烯酸钠(PAAS)为分散剂、脂肪醇聚氧乙烯醚(AEO-9)为表面活性剂配制抛光液, 系统研究了煅烧温度、磨料粒径及添加剂含量对抛光性能的影响。研究结果表明, 以500 ℃煅烧的CeO2为磨料, 添加0.2% PAAS和0.2% AEO-9 (质量分数)对CaF2的抛光性能最佳。其中, 粒径140 nm的磨料可实现109 nm/min的材料去除速率, 抛光后表面粗糙度(Ra)为0.12 nm; 而粒径110 nm的磨料可获得Ra低至0.09 nm的超光滑表面, 两者均优于传统碱性二氧化硅抛光液。激光损伤阈值测试表明, 经优化的CeO2抛光液处理的CaF2损伤阈值达6.4 J/cm2, 较二氧化硅抛光液(4.9 J/cm2)提升了约31%。电子顺磁共振(EPR)光谱和傅里叶变换红外(FT-IR)光谱分析证实, CeO2表面的Ce3+是提升化学活性的关键。接触角测试表明, PAAS和AEO-9可显著降低接触角, 明显改善抛光液在CaF2表面的润湿性。本研究为CaF2的超精密加工提供了一种高效、环境友好的新策略。
