Description

一种晶圆清洗设备工艺腔体及晶圆清洗设备Process cavity of wafer cleaning equipment and wafer cleaning equipment

技术领域technical field

本实用新型涉及半导体加工技术领域,具体地,涉及一种晶圆清洗设备工艺腔体以及包含该工艺腔体的晶圆清洗设备。The utility model relates to the technical field of semiconductor processing, in particular to a wafer cleaning equipment process chamber and wafer cleaning equipment including the process chamber.

背景技术Background technique

伴随IC集成度的不断提高,保证晶圆表面洁净度对获得高性能和高成品率的IC器件至关重要。因此,行业内对晶圆表面洁净的优良标准日益严苛,晶圆清洗在工艺流程中变得尤为重要。清洗是为了尽可能地减少附着在晶圆表面的杂质,以避免晶圆表面的杂质对IC器件性能造成不利影响,进而避免产品的可靠性问题。因此在晶圆生产工艺过程中,每在进行下一个步骤之前,都需要对晶圆进行彻底的清洗。With the continuous improvement of IC integration, ensuring the cleanliness of the wafer surface is crucial to obtaining high-performance and high-yield IC devices. Therefore, the excellent standards for wafer surface cleanliness in the industry are becoming increasingly stringent, and wafer cleaning has become particularly important in the process. The purpose of cleaning is to reduce the impurities attached to the wafer surface as much as possible, so as to prevent the impurities on the wafer surface from adversely affecting the performance of IC devices, thereby avoiding product reliability problems. Therefore, during the wafer production process, the wafer needs to be thoroughly cleaned before the next step.

现下的晶圆生产工艺中,晶圆在电镀夹具的夹持下在多种不同的试剂中浸泡反应,并在电镀夹具的夹持下在清洗设备中完成清洗。图1示出了现有技术中的电镀夹具200结构,在工艺过程中,晶圆设置在电镀夹具200底部位置(箭头B指向位置),电镀夹具200下部设置有一保护壳(箭头A指向了该保护壳的边缘位置),因电镀夹具200内部元器件多且较为精密复杂,因此电镀夹具200在工作时需注意防止进水,即要求工艺液体液面不超过保护壳边缘位置。In the current wafer production process, the wafer is soaked and reacted in a variety of different reagents under the grip of the electroplating fixture, and is cleaned in the cleaning equipment under the grip of the electroplating fixture. Fig. 1 shows the structure of electroplating fixture 200 in the prior art, in process, wafer is arranged on the bottom position of electroplating fixture 200 (arrow B points to the position), and electroplating fixture 200 bottom is provided with a protective shell (arrow A points to this The edge position of the protective shell), because the electroplating fixture 200 has many internal components and is relatively sophisticated, so the electroplating fixture 200 should pay attention to prevent water ingress during operation, that is, the liquid level of the process liquid is required not to exceed the edge of the protective shell.

因此,现有的清洗工艺,无法通过将携带有晶圆的电镀夹具直接浸没于清洗液中的方式进行清洗,由此往往是选择将电镀夹具直接水平放置于清洗设备的工艺腔中,通过晶圆与清洗液或去离子水水平接触的方式进行清洗。实践表明,这一类清洗设备有如下两个缺点:Therefore, the existing cleaning process cannot be cleaned by directly immersing the electroplating jig carrying the wafer in the cleaning solution. Therefore, it is often chosen to place the electroplating jig directly horizontally in the process chamber of the cleaning equipment. The circle is cleaned in a horizontal contact with cleaning solution or deionized water. Practice has shown that this type of cleaning equipment has the following two disadvantages:

其一是排水速度慢,导致工艺腔内始终残存上一个工艺步骤的试剂(如电镀液),造成工艺腔被污染;其二是晶圆清洗不完全,一方面,通过晶圆与清洗液或去离子水水平接触的方式无法将晶圆表面细微结构中的污渍清除出去,另一方面,该清洗过程无法同时兼顾晶圆表面和电镀夹具侧面的清洗(注:若电镀夹具侧面未清洗干净,因晶圆是在电镀夹具的夹持下进行各项工艺,故未清洗干净的电镀夹具会污染清洗干净的晶圆)。One is that the drainage speed is slow, which causes the reagents (such as electroplating solution) of the previous process to remain in the process chamber, causing the process chamber to be polluted; the other is that the cleaning of the wafer is not complete. The method of horizontal contact with deionized water cannot remove the stains in the fine structure of the wafer surface. On the other hand, this cleaning process cannot take into account the cleaning of the wafer surface and the side of the electroplating fixture at the same time (Note: If the side of the electroplating fixture is not cleaned, Because the wafer is clamped by the electroplating jig for various processes, the uncleaned electroplating jig will contaminate the cleaned wafer).

上述两个缺点阻碍了晶圆表面洁净度的进一步提升,进而对半导体器件可靠性产生不利影响。基于此,本领域亟需一种能够克服上述两个缺点的清洗设备。The above two disadvantages hinder the further improvement of the cleanliness of the wafer surface, thereby adversely affecting the reliability of semiconductor devices. Based on this, there is an urgent need in the art for a cleaning device that can overcome the above two shortcomings.

Therefore, care should be taken to prevent water from entering the electroplating fixture during cleaning. Therefore, it is required that the height of the cleaning solution during the process should not exceed the edge of the protective shell of the electroplating fixture (Note: In the wafer production process, the wafer Under the clamping of the electroplating fixture, the reaction is soaked in a variety of different reagents. For the same reason, the process liquid cannot exceed the edge of the protective shell of the electroplating fixture. Therefore, the cleaning of the electroplating fixture only needs to clean the edge of the protective shell. below the side).

Since the side water inlets 41 are arranged in multiples and evenly distributed, the cleaning effect of each position on the side of the electroplating fixture 200 can be guaranteed.

本实施例提供的晶圆清洗设备工艺腔体100的工艺操作流程可进行如下:The process operation flow of the wafer cleaning equipment process chamber 100 provided in this embodiment can be performed as follows:

S1:使电镀夹具200夹持晶圆进入腔体本体10内部,开启喷淋组件30,使之向电镀夹具200底部喷淋清洗液,以通过高强度的喷力将晶圆一些细微结构中的污渍冲洗出来。该环节进行过程中,进/排水口20的排水阀处于开启状态,进水阀处于关闭状态,喷淋组件30喷淋的废水可通过进/排水口20排出腔体本体10外。S1: Make the electroplating jig 200 clamp the wafer into the chamber body 10, turn on the spray assembly 30, and make it spray the cleaning solution to the bottom of the electroplating jig 200, so as to remove some microstructures of the wafer through high-intensity spraying force. Stains rinse out. During this process, the drain valve of the inlet/drainage port 20 is open, the water inlet valve is closed, and the waste water sprayed by the spray assembly 30 can be discharged out of the cavity body 10 through the inlet/drainage port 20 .

S2:保持电镀夹具200保护壳边缘A稍高于集液溢流槽50上边缘,使进/排水口20的排水阀处于关闭状态,进水阀处于开启状态,由此通过进/排水口20往清洗槽71内注入大流量清洗液,液位不断上升直到溢出至集液溢流槽50,此时,可使集液溢流槽50的溢流排水口51阀门延迟开启,由此使得集液溢流槽50内的溢出液液位高度不断上升,直到集液溢流槽50槽内的液位高度与集液溢流槽50槽外即清洗槽71的液位高度达到预设的高度差(如低8~10mm),此时使集液溢流槽50的溢流排水口51阀门开启,清洗液通过集液溢流槽50排放,实现进/排水口20注水与集液溢流槽50排水的流量平衡。S2: Keep the edge A of the protective shell of the electroplating fixture 200 slightly higher than the upper edge of the liquid collection overflow tank 50, so that the drain valve of the inlet/drainage port 20 is in the closed state, and the water inlet valve is in the open state, thereby passing through the inlet/drainage port 20 Inject a large flow of cleaning liquid into the cleaning tank 71, and the liquid level continues to rise until it overflows to the liquid collection overflow tank 50. At this time, the valve of the overflow drain 51 of the liquid collection overflow tank 50 can be delayed to open, thereby making the collection The liquid level height of the overflow liquid in the liquid overflow tank 50 continues to rise until the liquid level height in the liquid collection overflow tank 50 and the liquid level height outside the liquid collection overflow tank 50, that is, the cleaning tank 71, reach a preset height At this time, the overflow outlet 51 valve of the liquid collection overflow tank 50 is opened, and the cleaning liquid is discharged through the liquid collection overflow tank 50, so as to realize water injection at the inlet/drainage port 20 and collection overflow The flow of drainage from the tank 50 is balanced.

步骤S2的上述过程中,清洗液通过进/排水口20不断注入清洗槽71内,并通过集液溢流槽50不断溢流,由于电镀夹具200保护壳边缘A仅是稍高于集液溢流槽50上边缘,因此清洗液持续冲洗晶圆表面及电镀夹具200保护壳边缘A以下位置,由此提高晶圆表面及电镀夹具200侧面的洁净度。并且,此阶段的清洗液可被回收循环利用,具体地,可在开启溢流排水口51的同时使循环控制阀处于开启状态,清洗液经溢流排水口51流出进入存储槽后,在流量泵的作用下,沿回收管道经在线加热器加热、过滤器过滤后重新通过进/排水口20注入清洗槽71,实现清洗液的回收循环利用。经过一段时间的进水溢流排水回收循环后,工艺腔体内的清洗液迅速达到PH中性。此阶段清洗完成后,使进/排水口20进水阀处于关闭状态,排水阀处于开启状态,并使循环控制阀处于关闭状态,使清洗槽71内的液体通过进/排水口20迅速排出,集液溢流沟槽50内的液体通过溢流排水口51迅速排出。In the above process of step S2, the cleaning solution is continuously injected into the cleaning tank 71 through the inlet/drainage port 20, and continuously overflows through the liquid collection overflow tank 50. Since the edge A of the protective shell of the electroplating fixture 200 is only slightly higher than the liquid collection overflow The upper edge of the launder 50 , so the cleaning solution continuously rinses the surface of the wafer and the position below the edge A of the protective shell of the electroplating fixture 200 , thereby improving the cleanliness of the surface of the wafer and the side of the electroplating fixture 200 . Moreover, the cleaning liquid at this stage can be recovered and recycled. Specifically, the circulation control valve can be opened while the overflow drain 51 is opened. After the cleaning liquid flows out through the overflow drain 51 and enters the storage tank, the flow Under the action of the pump, it is heated by an online heater along the recovery pipeline, filtered by a filter, and then injected into the cleaning tank 71 through the inlet/drainage port 20 to realize the recovery and recycling of the cleaning liquid. After a period of water inflow, overflow and drainage recovery cycle, the cleaning liquid in the process chamber quickly reaches pH neutrality. After the cleaning at this stage is completed, the water inlet valve of the inlet/drainage port 20 is in a closed state, the drain valve is in an open state, and the circulation control valve is in a closed state, so that the liquid in the cleaning tank 71 is quickly discharged through the inlet/drainage port 20, The liquid in the liquid collection overflow groove 50 is quickly discharged through the overflow drain 51 .

S3:此步骤将对电镀夹具200侧面进行清洗。具体地,鉴于电镀夹具200内部元器件多且较为精密复杂,因此整个过程都须注意防止电镀夹具200进水,即最后一个环节中,电镀夹具200不能简单的通过浸没在药液中清洗其侧面。因此,在该清洗阶段,使电镀夹具200上升至其保护壳边缘A稍高于侧进水组件40的侧进水口41,而后使侧进水口41进水以喷淋冲洗电镀夹具200侧面并完成最终清洗,该阶段的清洗废液若流入清洗槽71,则可通过进/排水口20排出,若流入集液溢流槽50,则可通过溢流排水口51排出,不进行回收利用。S3: In this step, the sides of the electroplating jig 200 are cleaned. Specifically, since the electroplating jig 200 has many internal components and is more sophisticated and complex, care must be taken to prevent the electroplating jig 200 from entering water during the entire process, that is, in the last link, the electroplating jig 200 cannot simply be immersed in the chemical solution to clean its side. . Therefore, in this cleaning stage, the electroplating fixture 200 is raised to the side water inlet 41 of the side water inlet assembly 40 slightly higher than the side water inlet 41 of its protective shell edge A, and then the side water inlet 41 is watered to spray and rinse the side of the electroplating fixture 200 and complete For final cleaning, if the cleaning waste liquid at this stage flows into the cleaning tank 71, it can be discharged through the inlet/drainage port 20, and if it flows into the liquid collection overflow tank 50, it can be discharged through the overflow drain port 51 without recycling.
