Abstract

The present invention is directed to resist and etching residue removing compositions containing at least one nucleophilic amine compound possessing reduction and oxidation potentials, a two-carbon atom linkage alkanolamine compound, and optionally water and/or one or more corrosion inhibitors. The compositions may be substantially free of hydroxylamine, polar organic solvents, water, corrosion inhibitors, or a combination thereof. The compositions are useful in processes for removing resists and etching residue from metal or metal alloy substrates or substrate layers used in micro-circuitry fabrication.
