Abstract

The invention relates to a low temperature heat-treatment process for eliminating water mist on a silicon chip surface, which comprises the following steps when treating a single chip: loading a single silicon chip into a furnace chamber, vacuumizing and replacing with nitrogen gas; heating to 100-300 DEG C at a heating rate of 10-30 DEG C/s, keeping at constant temperature, and introducing ozone gas in the constant temperature stage; and cooling to 80 DEG C at a cooling rate of 10-30 DEG C/s, and then taking out the silicon chip. When a plurality of chips are treated, the heating rate and the time of constant temperature are different from that of single chip treatment. The invention has the advantages that the purpose of adding ozone is to oxidize the residual organic substances and soluble ions on the surface with the ozone to obtain a better silicon chip surface; because the concentration of ozone added to the gas atmosphere and the heat treatment temperature are relatively low, the ozone can not affect and oxidize the silicon chip surface, or cause the oxidation film on the silicon chip surface to increase in thickness; and the ozone also can not affect the distribution of thermal donors in the silicon chip, nor affect the change of micro-roughness of the silicon chip surface, thus the silicon chip after the low temperature heat-treatment can be directly used.

Description

A kind of low temperature heat-treatment process of eliminating water mist on silicon chip surface
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of integrated circuit with silicon polished low temperature heat-treatment process, avoid silicon chip to be cleaned again even polishing once more to eliminate silicon chip surface " water smoke ".
Background technology
Along with the development of microelectric technique, the characteristic line breadth of photoetching is more and more littler, and people are also more and more stricter to the control of the particle of silicon chip surface minor diameter.Surface particles is important Control Parameter in the silicon chip manufacture process, is to guarantee silicon chip surface particle, and silicon chip will clean under super-clean environment, detect after through polishing, packs then.But in the storage of silicon chip, transportation, the leakage of external packing or encapsulation are preceding because ambient humidity is excessive, cause the steam in the silicon chip surface absorbed air, and condense at silicon chip surface, be shown as particle and mist defective at the laser particle calculating instrument, the diameter of particle is at 0.1-0.3um, and quantity reaches several ten thousand.But analyze the signal to noise ratio of these defectives, find these defectives make an uproar lowlyer frequently, belong to the rub-out signal of system.
The water smoke of silicon chip surface is caused by several factors, but the encapsulation of silicon chip plays main effect, and the standard packaging of silicon chip comprises three parts: drier, inner packing, external packing.Discover same silicon chip, if through well packing, silicon chip can preserve for 18 each months, if but " pinprick " arranged or breaking on the packing, the steam in the environment is just at silicon chip surface generation water smoke.Discover the silicon chip through strict packaging quality control, it is very stable that surface metal, particle, oxidated layer thickness keep.But find that also if use wrong packing method, a certain amount of organic substance and ion can appear at silicon chip surface, and the surface can produce the particle of 100,000 diameters at the 0.1-0.3 mu m range.
A kind of being interpreted as that water smoke forms: under higher levels of humidity, the surface of hydrophilic silicon chip has condensing of the small globule.These globules can cause the charged ion in water-soluble contamination of silicon chip surface (organic volatile and the residual water soluble ion of cleaning) and the environment to assemble the formation particle in the relevant position at silicon chip.The particle that the silicon chip surface water-solubility impurity causes mainly is subjected to the influence of charged ion in concentration, ambient humidity and the environment of impurities on surface of silicon chip.
The another kind that water smoke forms is interpreted as: hydrogen atom or hydrogen molecule are diffused in the wafer bulk in silicon wafer polishing and cleaning, and and foreign atom formation complex.Between the storage life, the hydrogen-dopant complex that is diffused into silicon chip inside decomposes, and is discharged into silicon chip surface at silicon chip.Be discharged into hydrogen meeting and the oxygen in the environment or the steam reaction of silicon chip, cause the silicide of silicon chip surface growth projection.When using the laser particle calculating instrument to scan these particles, the silicide meeting reflector laser of these protrusions is defaulted as particle by the laser particle calculating instrument.So the silicon chip behind scanning growth water smoke under the laser particle calculating instrument finds that several ten thousand granules appear in silicon chip surface.
Particle and water smoke that silicon chip surface is caused by the air humidity increase can clean by rinsing+normal SC1 and the SC2 of HF, and drying can effectively be removed then.But repeatedly clean the microroughness that generally all increases silicon chip surface.The invention provides the problem that a kind of low temperature heat-treatment process is eliminated to be increased by surface particles that ambient humidity causes.Not only eliminate surperficial water smoke, and can not increase the roughness and the metal contamination of silicon chip surface.
Summary of the invention
The purpose of this invention is to provide a kind of low temperature heat-treatment process of eliminating water mist on silicon chip surface, eliminate the water smoke defective of silicon chip surface, improve the utilance of silicon chip.
For reaching the purpose of foregoing invention, the present invention by the following technical solutions:
The present invention is a kind of low temperature heat-treatment process, and heat treatment can be carried out in the monolithic furnace chamber, also can be in horizontal chamber furnace (oven) batch process.The quantity of heat treated silicon chip and physical condition can be selected different heat treatment modes as required.Silicon chip for a small amount of can use monolithic to handle, and can reach like this to save time and purpose of energy saving.And, can in the heat treatment furnace chamber, adopt batch process technology for a large amount of silicon chips, i.e. the silicon chip of some (as 50,100 or more, the treating capacity of silicon chip is by the capacity decision of equipment) single treatment reaches fast and purpose of energy saving.
The low temperature heat-treatment process of this elimination water mist on silicon chip surface, when monolithic was handled, it may further comprise the steps:
(1), single silicon chip is written into furnace chamber, vacuumize, and with nitrogen replacement;
(2), be warmed up to 100~300 ℃ with 10~30 ℃/s programming rate, and constant temperature, the constant temperature stage feeds ozone gas;
(3), with 10~30 ℃/s cooling rate, cool to 80 ℃, take out silicon chip then.
The low temperature heat-treatment process of this elimination water mist on silicon chip surface, when multi-disc was handled, it may further comprise the steps:
(1), the air in the furnace chamber is discharged after the multi-disc silicon chip being written into furnace chamber;
(2), under the nitrogen protection state, with 10~20 ℃/s programming rate, be warmed up between 100~300 ℃, constant temperature then, the constant temperature stage feeds ozone gas;
(3), with the cooling of the cooling rate of 10~20 ℃/s, begin to cool to the time interval that silicon chip comes out of the stove and be decided to be 3 minutes.
Concrete process:
For monolithic heat treatment furnace chamber, furnace chamber is cold wall, and adopts the Halogen lamp LED heating, and energy is directly absorbed by silicon chip.Utilize the monolithic stove can well control temperature, programming rate and the thermostat temperature of silicon chip heating.After silicon chip is written into furnace chamber, the air displacement in the furnace chamber is become nitrogen environment by vacuumizing with nitrogen replacement.Be warmed up to 100-300 ℃ of constant temperature with 10-30 ℃/s programming rate then, cool to 80 ℃ with 10-30 ℃/s cooling rate behind the constant temperature certain hour, take out silicon chip then.Constant temperature time depends primarily on thermostat temperature, reduces thermostat temperature and will prolong constant temperature time accordingly.The general constant temperature time that adopts 5 minutes of 300 ℃ thermostat temperature, and during the temperature constant temperature below 300 ℃, constant temperature time was generally got 5-20 minute, concrete constant temperature time depends on thermostat temperature.In the process of whole intensification, constant temperature and cooling, need to feed nitrogen and do protective atmosphere.Ozone feeds in thermostatic process, and the volume ratio of the nitrogen use level the when consumption of feeding ozone and constant temperature is 2-10%.If the ratio of ozone is too high, can cause silicon chip surface oxide-film to occur, stop ozone after constant temperature finishes and feed.
For the batch process technology of a large amount of silicon chips, the air in the furnace chamber is discharged after silicon chip need being written into furnace chamber.Be warmed up to back constant temperature between 100-300 ℃ with 10-20 ℃/s programming rate then.Because the quantity of silicon chip is more in the horizontal chamber furnace (oven), need to reduce programming rate, to guarantee inner silicon chip thermally equivalent.Constant temperature time is mainly decided by thermostat temperature, reduces thermostat temperature and will prolong constant temperature time accordingly.Compare monolithic technology, the thermostat temperature of horizontal chamber furnace (oven) prolongs 3 minutes than the constant temperature time of monolithic stove, promptly 300 ℃ thermostat temperature needed constant temperature 8 minutes, and the constant temperature time of the temperature constant temperature below 300 ℃ is 8-23 minute, and concrete constant temperature time depends on thermostat temperature.Whole technical process finishes all to be in the protection of nitrogen gas state from being warmed up to cooling, feeds ozone when constant temperature begins, and the volume ratio of ozone and nitrogen is 2%-10%.If the ratio of ozone is too high, can cause silicon chip surface oxide-film to occur.After constant temperature finishes, stop ozone and feed, and lower the temperature with the cooling rate of 10-20 ℃/s.Need nitrogen flow in the temperature-fall period, to promote the dilution of cooling and ozone.Beginning to cool to the time interval that silicon chip comes out of the stove was decided to be about 3 minutes, to guarantee that ozone is not all blown away and can enter in the air by nitrogen in the furnace chamber.
Advantage of the present invention: can directly use through the silicon chip after the Low Temperature Heat Treatment,,, cause the silicon chip surface oxide thickness to increase so the existence of ozone can not influence the oxidized silicon chip surface because the concentration and the heat treatment temperature of adding ozone are all lower in the atmosphere.The purpose that adds ozone is to utilize ozone oxidation remaining organic substance in surface and soluble ion, to obtain better silicon chip surface.Because the heat treated temperature of this patent is lower,, also can not influence the variation of silicon chip surface microroughness so can not influence the distribution of hot alms giver in the silicon chip.
