危險化學組成之滲漏的更少之風險。多金屬凸塊銅+鎳+鉛 錫及一以焊料罩蓋之銅凸塊陣列的放大視圖係顯示於圖1 8 中。 此新的單槽具體實施例被稱爲一電鍍計算器,因爲其 能夠使該第一完整之電鍍製程將全部於單一室中完成,同 時運動化學組成及隨後之沖洗水兩者通過該晶圓,而不是 使該晶圓運動至該化學組成。這由於該可預測性賦予可程 式化參數及可重複性之一新的標準,基於該整個製程順序 及化學組成與電氣條件、材料、及環境之不斷監視,該可 預測性藉由具有較佳之反饋、正向饋給、及最後之預測量 測所賦予。 一些優點及較佳特色選擇性地包括:當該整個晶圓電 鍍及沖洗步驟能被完成時,減少晶圓處理及破損,而一旦 被載入該工具不會逐步地運動該晶圓;更有效率之單一電 鍍槽容量賦予更快之ROI及具有遠較快速歸還期之減少的 資金成本;立刻編排試算表格式中之參數與對於任何製程 -18-

大致上,改善之性能包括厚度之均勻性、化學效率、 製造之快速運轉比率、以及由該無電電解質至該晶圓表 面、特別至分佈之均勻性的沈積材料之品質。現存方法利 用無電電鍍中之溫度及化學控制,以帶來均勻之電鍍結 果。溫度係一影響該電鍍製程之關鍵參數。一旦鑛液接觸 一適當之基板,無電電鍍在一寬廣範圍之溫度發生。一鍍 液之調處溫度係一時間回應程序,因此,視用於無電電鍍 之溫度控制被限制至某一範圍而定。具有很低電力電路之 電接觸提供一用於無電電鍍的快速開關之停止/開始,其 展開無電製程之精確控制的能力。 用於電鍍矽晶圓及其他電子基板之超音波攪動傳統製 程產生電鍍沈積物,該等沈積物在橫越該晶圓表面之沈積 -20- 200923134 高度中變化。這是局部由於緊接在該增長的金屬沈積物上 方的邊界層中之金屬離子的濃度中之變化。攪動、諸如邊 界層攪動,可被組構成藉由超音波傳感器之使用所提供。 現存方法利用單一頻率發生器及傳感器震動電解質,以在 該晶圓表面造成流體交換。然而,於微尺寸中之質量傳送 及能量傳送係電鍍速率及供電效率之主要促成者。爲使某 一材料沈積在一特定之幾何形狀部件上,某一範圍之震動 頻率、振幅、及硬體組構能最佳化質量及能量傳送。一更 廣範圍之震動頻率發生器、傳感器、及操作模型(震動模 型與組構模型)最佳化製程參數,諸如頻率範圍、功率範 圍、及用於一特別製程的傳感器至基板或基板夾具之連 接。藉由驅動多數聲音頻率經過該電鍍電解質及橫越此邊 界層介面,此攪動瓦解該邊界層分層狀態,造成微米尺寸 之湍流混合。此外,在此有直接在該晶圓表面之空氣分 子,該等空氣分子大致上被位移,以達成牢固及均勻之電 鍍結果。此揭示內容大致上增強打破該晶圓上之表面張力 的能力,以有利於、以及促進該電鍍製程。 該聲能可被向上引導經過該晶圓之底側、往下引導在 該晶圓表面、或橫越平行於該邊界層及該晶圓兩者之平面 的晶圓表面。該聲能不只爲一恆定周期之純函數,但可包 括連續周期性函數與及橫越該聽得見之聲音範圍(‘白噪 音’)及該跨音速範圍的連續多數重疊頻率之組合、或於 該聽得見之聲音及/或跨音速頻率範圍中的一連串短歷 時-脈衝式聲能封包之組合的其中之一。於此技術中,次 -21 - 200923134 音速、音速、超音波、及百萬頻率超音波能被導入一液體 系統、或諸系統’以於該系統或諸系統中產生均勻分佈之 能量、質量、及動量。 應用包括待被使用在半導體、MEMS、微型化、及奈 米技術製造中之清潔、電鍍、無電電鍍、混合目的。各種 波能由任何方向經過保持、促進、及/或起作用材料被導 入該系統或諸系統。各種波可被原始產生、放大、引導、 脈波的產生、有/無相同之振幅、不斷及/或間隔地。各 種波能被壓電、磁性、喇叭形、單一、多數、及/或有/ 無波導器之傳感器所導入。該方法提供用於將能量及/或 動量導入液體系統及接近固體之表面,以於上達該系統尺 寸之巨觀規模傳送及於下達奈米位準之微觀規模中產生能 量、動量及質量之均勻分佈。一或多個傳感器可被耦合在 一夾具之背面、晶圓夾頭、基板基座、陽極、電極、角狀 物、環件、閘板、墊子、機架、或螢幕上,以將各種波導 入液體系統及接近固體之表面與固體-液體介面。該等傳 感器可包括一壓電磁性材料。所產生之各種波可包括單一 頻率、多數頻率、及/或一掃頻波之範圍,其可被個別地 或同時地控制。該電解質可包括一溶液、膠體、大部分液 體、或微粒懸浮液體,並可包括有或沒有金屬離子、或金 屬微粒、有機添加劑、或爲中性、酸性、或鹼性之水。被 震動之部份及/或該固體之表面可包括金屬、塑膠、陶 瓷、矽、及/或玻璃。該接近之固體表面可被組構成在數 奈米至數十微米之範圍中。該固體-液體介面可被組構成 -22- 200923134 在奈米之範圍中。該固體之表面可包括一或多個材料,並 可爲平坦的或包括由一奈米至100微米之範圍的部件尺 寸。 微固體攪動係較佳的,因爲其增進電鍍材料之質量及 能量傳送,以確保電鍍材料之品質。以小微小或奈米尺寸 設計之部件,大量機械式攪動不能有效率地獲得該質量/ 能量傳送,且意外之反應造成較低之沈積品質及供電效 率。在另一方面,微固體攪動能貫穿進入微部件及獲得最 佳化之質量/能量傳送。波發生器之更寬廣頻率範圍及傳 感器與電源能夠使用於電鍍系統之頻率及振幅條件最佳 化,該電鍍系統包括沈積材料、化學品、電鍍槽組構'及 基板。耦接至電鍍物體之傳感器及大量攪動硬體提供更多 路徑,以調節微固體攪動效率。 消除駐波節點之操作模型及其產生之非均勻性電鍍材 料分佈可被使用。微固體攪動亦打開該門件’以最佳化相 關應用,諸如物理及化學清潔、除氣等。最後’微固體攪 動能夠使固體奈米電鍍。攪動改善厚度之均句性、供電效 率、製造之快速運轉比率、以及由該電解質至該晶圓表面 的沈積材料之品質’特別是大於80微米之深通孔及具有 一高縱橫比的表面。 於一示範具體實施例中,如圖2-5所示’大致上利用 二種超音波傳感器。首先’一或多個(大致上二個)角狀 物係位在該電鍍槽之基座中。此外’ 一環件可被組構成設 置在該陰極(晶圓)及陽極間之電鍍室內。該環件或縮帶 -23- 200923134 大致上提供不銹鋼及複數凹槽。每一傳感器大致上提供一 最佳之頻率。一些頻率可增加該晶圓及該電鍍金屬間之黏 附力。軟體控制可被採用,以變化該等頻率,以最佳化該 製程,譬如,藉由掃除該等頻率,以消除駐波。攪動亦大 致上增加沈積物均勻性、質量傳送、沖洗效率、除氣等。 該等超音波傳感器亦可選擇性地被使用於通孔激活與該晶 圓及/或電鍍槽之清潔。爲了容納此震動,該晶圓夾頭可 使用塡隙片選擇性地被安裝在一支撐基座上,該等塡隙片 於震動期間提供一些“彈性(give ) ” 。 該等一或多個機電傳感器大致上被一能夠產生純周期 性及任意電波形兩者之電子波形發生器所控制。該等傳感 器大致上係藉由一或多個剛硬的桿件及/或圓形之環件連 接至一震動表面,該環件包圍該待處理之整個晶圓,並由 非磁性之材料所製成。該等連接桿構件及環件之質量係大 致上充分低的,以便不會使待運送至該晶圓附近之波形減 弱。這些桿件及環件係亦大致上充分剛硬的,以便精確地 運送該意欲之波形。該傳感器與連接桿可爲直接地位在該 晶圓本身下方,經由該晶圓支座、晶圓壓盤、或晶圓夾頭 運送聲能至該晶圓。於此特別之具體實施例中,藉由該傳 感器及桿件賦予至該晶圓支座之震動的能量向上運動經過 該晶圓支座進入該晶圓本身,造成該晶圓以一與該傳感器 之運動同步的方式垂直地移位。移位距離(波形幅度)之 範圍大致上在於1微米及2 0 0微米之間。 賦予震動的能量至該晶圓之第二機構係以一方式將該 -24- 200923134 連接桿及傳感器耦接至該晶圓支座,使得該運動之 平行於該晶圓表面。由於該等晶圓之易碎的本質, 器力量可被組構成不會直接地耦接至該晶圓支座, 耦接至該晶圓壓盤或晶圓夾頭,其依序運送該震動 至該晶圓本身。此聲能可被組構成由該晶圓之外徑 引導經過至該中心。用於能量之傳送的媒介係直接 該化學品至該晶圓表面,而給與用於最大電鍍之優 動。於此案例中,該震動的能量之效果係在該晶圓 方向中迅速地來回移位該晶圓,大致上具有於1 200微米間之振幅。 於實踐此揭示內容之第三機構中,藉由二分開 器的作用,該震動的能量係於兩軸心中同時地或於 程考量所指定之各種順序中賦予至該晶圓,一傳感 地安裝在該晶圓下方,且另一傳感器安裝至該晶 面。該精密之最佳震動頻率將隨著該晶圓大小及該 之待電鍍表面部件的尺寸而變化。所採用之頻率大 大約1 〇赫茲及大約21千赫茲間之範圍中。純周期 本身大致上不會在此揭示內容中被採用,以便在該 電鍍室內側避免諧波共振及/或駐波之建立。反之 異相的重疊頻率之混合物(‘白噪音’)可被組構 種周期性函數結合地採用。震動能量之應用可於該 作循環期間被連續地施加,或可被定期地發出脈衝 該剛硬的晶圓壓盤支撐結構大致上完成二功能 於晶圓經過真空、機械式連接、或其他方法之直接 方向係 該傳感 但反而 的能量 完全地 地經過 異的攪 平面之 微米及 之傳感 藉由製 器直接 圓之側 晶圓上 致上在 性頻率 封閉的 ,彼此 成與各 電鍍工 〇 :有利 附著, -25- 200923134 且爲充分剛硬的及爲一結構,使得該震動的能量以相同方 式被傳導遍及該整個晶圓(例如在此於該晶圓壓盤及該晶 圓中之撓曲應爲儘可能小的)。該連接器桿件或托架係位 於在該晶圓/晶圓壓盤及該傳感器之間。以此一使得該傳 感器之震動能量被如實地運送及具有最小衰減量地運送至 該晶圓之方式,該連接器桿件可被組構成牢固地連接至該 晶圓壓盤支座。該連接器桿件理想地將由具有低運動質量 的非磁性之機械式剛硬材料所製成’諸如、但不限於鈦。 包括至該傳感器及來自該傳感器之連接硬體的材料大致上 機械式剛硬的,且具有一低慣性。該硬體理想地亦應爲非 磁性及非電感性的,以便不影響該晶圓或基板上之電鍍沈 積物的品質。 該傳感器可被組構成牢固地連接至該連接器桿件或托 架之相向端子。以此一使得幾乎所有該傳感器之動能被引 導進入該晶圓壓盤卡具的方式,該傳感器可被組構成牢固 地支撐及緊固。磁致伸縮或壓電傳感器其中之一可被採 用。磁致伸縮傳感器典型地係在於大約〇伏特及大約1 〇 伏特之間操作。壓電傳感器典型地係在〇-4〇〇伏特之間操 作。當與一壓電傳感器作比較時,由於該磁致伸縮傳感器 之較大可靠性、該磁致伸縮傳感器之較高力常數、該磁致 伸縮傳感器之較低操作電壓、及該磁致伸縮傳感器對溫度 變化之較平滑的反應,磁致伸縮傳感器係一優於壓電傳感 器之較佳具體實施例。該傳感器可被組構成藉由一可程式 化之任意波形發生器所驅動,該發生器能夠供給大致上在 -26- 200923134 大約1赫茲及大約2 1,0 00赫茲間之頻率範圍中的周期性 及任意波形兩者。該波形發生器可被直接地程式設計或可 被當作該電鍍裝置控制系統的一成份之軟體工作所控制。 該傳感器可被倂入一遠較接近該晶圓壓盤、或直接在 該晶圓壓盤下方、或與該晶圓壓盤整合之配置中。然而, 藉由該傳感器裝置所產生之電場可能與該晶圓電鍍槽中之 晶圓上面的電場耦合,其可影響該晶圓電鍍製程之製程一 致性。耦合至該晶圓的震動能量之振幅及密度可藉由加入 或減去一或多個輔助傳感器至該主要傳感器所增加,該等 輔助傳感器被導向於該相同之軸心或沿著一與該主要傳感 器在一直角之軸心的其中之一。此揭示內容亦可被採用於 無電(自催化的)金屬電鍍中,以增加該電鍍比率、移去 由該待電鍍表面所逐步形成之氣泡、及建立一更均質的電 鍍沈積物厚度分佈。當該電鍍反應器單元係以電鑛化學組 成灌注,且該陽極電流係開啓(於電解質電鍍之案例 中)、或該反應器單元係在該最佳之製程溫度(於無電或 自催化電鍍之案例中)時,大致上於該晶圓電鍍製程期間 操作該等傳感器。 超音波傳感器之使用係提供用於各種電鍍及單元操作 運動學之固態能量的一態樣。此技術之優點達成一用於本 揭示內容之關鍵差別,因它們賦予一剛好超出電鍍功能上 之典型重點的寬廣範圍之功能。譬如,藉由本揭示內容提 供用於引導能量至適當表面之室設計,及得知什麼能量施 加至什麼製程與對於所需之結果如何以反饋、前饋、及預 -27- 200923134 測之製程控制適當地控制的製程專門技術。另外’該軟 體、測量、及得知如何使用D S P電子裝置管理複雜之傳感 器輸出而確保期待之波形與能量的控制專門技術、及即時 模式控制軟體被該揭示內容之具體實施例所促進。 又再者,前緣唯一固態指向性能量電鍍(DEP)之被 控制多頻率、多模式系統的本執行過程,係提供即時反饋 及前饋功能之能力。預測製程監視及利用該等聲波當作 “聲納”之下一步驟係偵測化學組成密度與條件以及金屬 厚度層次。應由本揭示內容被期待之使用此能量的主要製 程運動學係有效力的,因它們賦予一具有較少之化學組成 流動及使用的較低成本之電鍍槽,以及改善的電鍍比率與 產品品質。二寬闊範圍之頻率係感興趣的,雖然其他頻率 範圍可被使用。譬如,大約20至大約20千赫茲之頻率可 被用於一般之電鏟、柔軟之金屬、及攪動,在此大約500 千赫茲至大約2百萬赫茲之頻率可被用於細微的部件、細 微的間距、及晶圓清潔,很可能通孔電鍍。譬如,此後者 之頻率範圍可被用於邊界層攪動及在該晶圓位準之通孔激 活、通孔清潔及啓動、電鍍槽壁面及室清潔、化學組成攪 拌及遍及鍍液之微粒擴散、在金屬層之空化以開始用於下 一層電鍍、使用我們的分層電鍍製程混合分層之金屬層、 使用聲納測量方法測量凸塊高度或薄膜厚度、黏附力促 進、電鍍比率加速、及/或在通孔凹洞以及晶圓邊界層內 側之通孔電鑛擴散攪拌。 以下之摘要詳細說明藉由電鍍、傳感器、及大學團體 -28- 200923134 所做成之硏究及實驗,該大學團體使用高頻能量波尋求改 善之電鍍。這些結果最典型地涉及小面積及小樣本。本揭 示內容可被用來擴充這些結果超過一較大之200毫米或 3 00毫米晶圓表面,以及使用不同頻率控制。該方法包括 一均勻及可控制波形能量之應用-晶圓背面、正面、及橫 側地越過晶圓面與基於不同之晶圓金屬導體化及表面選擇 性地提供反饋。該方法亦可另包括測量該結果之波形及能

Description of the Invention [Technical Fields of the Invention] The following disclosure relates to a method and apparatus for automatically plating a plurality of metal layers or complex structures using a single plating apparatus. [Prior Art] Conventional electroplating systems generally utilize a plurality of different electroplating baths, each of which contains a plurality of different electroless plating baths that are plated to form a particular metal or alloy. The plurality of plating baths are generally part of a plating system comprising a plurality of plating baths, each of which is configured to perform a particular operation, such as acid etching/cleaning, rinsing, drying, annealing, metrology, electroplating, and the like. Traditional plating systems require a large footprint in an expensive clean room space. In addition, conventional plating systems and plating baths are generally a single chemical bath, that is, a plating bath uses a single chemical process and phenomenon to plate a single metal material. Thus, complex electroless plating solutions and processes must be used for alloy plating, and deposition of different individual metal layers is difficult and requires continuous use of multiple plating baths. The use of electroplated alloys from most electrowinning tanks to different metal layers presents several disadvantages. For example, the process of transferring one substrate to another by one plating bath increases the likelihood of oxidation formed on the substrate. If it is not removed before the subsequent layer is deposited, oxidation can cause defects in the electroplated layers, and removal of the oxide layer adds a cleaning and rinsing step to the electroplating process. Each of these processes increases the processing time for a substrate and thus inherently reduces the throughput of the plating system. - 5 - 200923134 SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present disclosure provides a process plating calculator that is rapidly changing chemical baths and is designed to provide customers with more flexibility in demanding and higher availability. This disclosure provides a cost effective plating tool and layer process for semiconductor back end assembly. The compact electroplating deposition process tool of the present disclosure provides a more cost effective way to manufacture low cost interconnects including, but not limited to, those for flip chip. Tools that can be fabricated using a unique single-wafer, multi-metal process slot generally include the primary operational advantages of a single tank for electroplating process conditions that outperforms its competitors' need for much more space and maintenance. The Process Knowledge Department is also largely embedded in the soft introduction and procurement of simple and high-yield joint capabilities. This plating calculator should be able to make most of the companies that want to develop and provide CSP coverage, as well as those with the parameters of the supplier. Furthermore, the combination of improved process technology and a novel small-scale electroplating calculator that closes the difficult content of the introduction and support of flip chip bonding technology is not limited to the ability to continuously and multi-metalize multi-metals. It also replaces the traditional plating tank to the plating tank and the storage tank to a storage with a more powerful single tank mourning. In this way, it is possible to eliminate the need to move through various electroplating chemical processes, and the purpose of using the metal is reliable. Generally, it is very useful for high-performance, technically useful, and the metal process can be more physically/hard-crystal and wafer-carrying. Sex sinking tools are reduced. The present disclosure discloses a need for repeated wafer plating calculations for wafer wafer transfer. -6- 200923134 seeks to reduce the need for substrate transfer related robots, thereby reducing mechanical costs, footprints, and improving machine utilization. This single-slot approach facilitates and improves production by minimizing wafer processing and, more importantly, enables a wide range of lead-free solders to be used in single-slot platforms. In addition, a process that would be used with these tools for encapsulating powders and solder bumps was developed. Additional work continues to develop high-performance bumps and interconnects' This interconnect is expected to improve thermal and electrical conductivity in copper and solder alloys. This will focus on the important high performance computing and handheld processor market segments that are requiring more thermal interconnects. The scope, advantages and novel features of the present disclosure, and further scope of applicability will be set forth in part in the detailed description that follows, and will be made in part for those skilled in the art.

The contact ring 114 can generally include a plurality of electrically conductive fingers that are radially positioned about a half of a rigid and substantially flat ring member. The positioning of the conductive fingers is substantially configured to electrically contact a peripheral portion of the substrate to be processed in the plating calculator 100.

The anode η〇 generally includes a plurality of concentrically positioned conductive elements, The components can be individually biased at a selected electrical power. It is advantageous in the electroplating calculator to facilitate the deposition of a uniform sentence over the surface of the substrate to be electroplated. The anode 1 1 0 -12- 200923134 is substantially positioned just above the contact ring 1 1 4 , And more particularly the anode 1 1 〇 is positioned substantially immediately above the central aperture through the contact ring 1 1 4 . in this way, When a substrate to be plated is positioned in the controller 1 and brought into electrical communication with the contact ring 114,  1 1 0 will be positioned substantially immediately above the substrate to be plated.  Figure 1 E illustrates a side view of an exemplary removable chemical for use in the present invention. The chemical supply module 1 29 generally includes a storage tank 130, Loading slot 132, Fluid manifold 138, At least one 1 40, And a selectively actuated fluid pump 1 42. The load may also include a fluid heater 136 and a fluid filter 134.  in, The chemical supply module 1 29 can be connected to a plating 1 〇〇, To support a part of the electroplating process. The fluid contained in the chemical supply mold can be grouped to plate a particular metal. An additional chemical supply module 1 29 can also be coupled to the plating calculation. And can be grouped to supply a different chemical solution to the electric device 100, Thus a different metal can be electroplated on the substrate.  If the special plating process performed in the plating calculator 100 requires a different process to deposit different metals on a single substrate, Each of the calculators 100 may be in communication with one or more chemical supply modules 1 2 9 to supply the supply module 1 29 substantially to the large volume of loading from the bulk storage tank of the mass storage tank. The groove 1 3 2 (the size of which is approximately 1 〇 2 of the processing volume of the plating calculator 100), Here the solution is filtered and shipped before being sent to the plating calculator 100.  Yes, The formed electroplating meter of the anode to the module main fluid storage valve slot 1 32 is calculated in the operation calculator group 129 to the substrate 100 plating,  To be a single plating meter. The chemistry 130 will be able to be set to the same capacity to be heated -13- 200923134 for a special process, This disclosure is generally for each chemical composition, Separate grain tanks (module 12 9) are provided for the waste as appropriate. Each tank may include a heater 'for heating the chemical composition to an optimum process temperature. The containers can be constructed to be easily replaceable and/or refillable. The used chemical composition can be grouped into a treatment, Recirculation into the appropriate tank, such as after filtration. An optional pump heater filter module is disposed between the process slot and the slot to enable the slot to be replaced by a "plug and play" system. One or more selective metrology systems are utilized in an immediate feedback loop for automatic process loop control. Such systems may include conductivity (eg RTD), Sonar, The best level of sensing, And consumption forecast. A thermoelectric battery (TEC) can be used; This not only measures the thickness of the deposit, However, it can also be used to fine tune (heat or cool) the process temperature. Conductive sensor to ensure the cleanliness of different chemicals, Prevent cross-contamination and estimate degradation of these chemicals.  A tank pressure monitor allows for a full rate of charge, To control chemical flow and overflow, The pressure uniformity in the tank is monitored in situ. A large number of plating conditions that are optimized for wafer temperature monitoring. A rechargeable sensor can be selectively used. Resistivity contacts provide instant feedback for optimum plating performance. The film conduction sensing in the tank determines the cleanliness of the inner wall surface of the groove. An integrated optical curvature measurement (on-line stress test) can be used to monitor the distribution across the crystal circle. Consumption model establishment can be used to monitor this power usage, To adjust the chemical properties and provide immediate feedback to the system between the wafers being plated. And an electrochemical oxide indicator provides an impedance finger at the wafer/solution interface -14-200923134. In a single room, Multi-metal stacking can be performed. In one such example, A copper layer can be deposited, Carry out a flush, A nickel layer is then deposited, And finally depositing a palladium cover, All processes are not removed from the groove by the groove. Although these steps are typically performed continuously, Different metals can be selectively deposited simultaneously.  The slot generally provides the ability to be tilted and/or vibrated. In a specific embodiment, The trough is tilted in the first direction and filled by the bottom. The incoming chemical composition then purges all of the gas out of the tank as it fills. During operation, The slot is substantially vibrating (regularly or randomly), Provide mechanical agitation, Used to increase plating uniformity and eliminate standing wave nodes. The slot also vibrates substantially during flushing. If necessary during plating, The slot can be tilted at any desired angle or angle. Promotes gas and bubble removal. The slot is substantially inclined in the second direction, To discharge the flushing waste,  This ensures complete discharge and simplification to the chemical composition of the tank.  Figure 1G illustrates a side and perspective view of an exemplary plating calculator 100 of the present invention. The top right side perspective view of the plating calculator 1 shows a substantially planar platform 153, The plating calculator 100 is mounted on the platform.  An actuator 150 is coupled at a first end to a rigid member 154 that is not coupled to the platform 153. And connected to the platform 153 at the second end.  In the side of the platform 153 opposite the connection point of the actuator 150,  The platform 153 is supported at a special point. The point has an axis 1 1 1 which is always standing. in this way, When the platform 1 5 3 bypasses the axis 1 5 1 of the pivot point, The actuator 150 can vibrate the platform 153 in the direction indicated by the arrow 152. This vibration provided by the actuator 150 can be used to apply a large amount of motion to the shovel calculator 100 for -15-200923134. This large amount of motion can be used to facilitate the discharge of fluid from the plating calculator 00. And used to further agitate or agitate the chemical components in the plating solution contained in the treatment volume 02. In other specific embodiments of the invention, Additional pivot points and/or actuators can be used to selectively tilt the platform i 5 3, For example, it is advantageous to adhere the smallest bubbles to the surface of the substrate.  The wafer chuck or support member 104 can be rotated during operation to shear the chemical composition, To increase uniformity, And/or rotate after processing, To dry the wafer (in this case, It is roughly rotated at approximately 1,500 rpm.) The collet 1〇4 is substantially rotated by being inserted into a hollow shaft rotary motor. In this particular embodiment, The wafer is placed on the chuck. The collet 104 moves up slightly upright, Contact for processing is provided between the wafer and the contact ring 112. For washing, The collet 104 is lowered for rotation. This process also ensures that the contact ring 1 14 is also flushed. Process control for increased 'this chemical composition may pass through holes or grooves in the anode 110, Or alternatively, one or more openings are ejected through the ultrasonic sensor ring (described below). In any case, The chemical composition to be sprayed can be recycled from the chamber after initial use. The distance from the anode to the wafer (cathode) can also be adjusted from approximately 〇 8 8 to approximately 1 · 8 . Chasing can be done manually via a mechanical mechanism such as a thumb screw&apos; or automatically via a programmable electromagnetic switch. The anode segments are roughly rectified by multiple channels &quot; Controlled, The rectifier controls the distribution of each channel. This anode provides the ability to be plated with a forward current' and the reverse plating enhances the morphology of the surface of the bump.  Figure 1L illustrates a side cross-sectional view of the upper portion of the processing tank of the exemplary plating calculator 100 of the present invention. The anode 110 may include a plurality of anode segments 1 10a, 1 1 Ob, And 1 10c. The anode segments generally comprise a conductive member, Each component is connected to a separate power terminal 1 1 〇d. in this way,  Each of the individual anode segments 110 can be individually powered and controlled.  The upper portion of the processing tank 1 〇 亦可 may also include one or more sensors 1 1 1 . In addition, The electrolyte solution used in the electroplating process can also be circulated through the processing volume 110 in a manner. Forcing the electrolyte through the holes formed in the anode 110, Orifice, Or groove. in this way, The electrolyte used in the electroplating process can be forced through the anode 110 toward the substrate to be electroplated in a manner similar to a high pressure nozzle.  Figure 1M illustrates a partial exploded perspective view of an exemplary control rack or rack system 170 for use in the electroplating calculator 100 of the present invention. The control rack 1 70 can include a hood 173, Substrate insertion window 172, And an internal volume 174,  The internal volume is organized to accommodate the plating calculator 100. a control system 1 7 1. A computer such as a computer can be used to control various components and processes of the plating calculator. A detachable chemical supply tank 1 75 can be installed next to and removed from the control frame 170.  The electroplating calculator of this disclosure is completely innovative, In which the electroplating calculator utilizes a single chamber, To handle all metal deposition steps through the entire process and all pre-cleaning and intermediate cleaning. Today's electroplating tools use a series of separate slots. Used for the electroplating chemistry, Clean chemical composition, And flushing operation. Most of this cost is a robotic arm. It is capable of moving a very crisp wafer of up to 300 mm diameter between the grooves, -17-200923134 Not damaged.  The advantage of single-slot plating is that the environment above the wafer can be controlled.  To prevent oxygen from entering the plating bath and causing oxidation between the stepped portions of the metal. If the industry is moving to more complex multi-metal flip-chip bonding and wafer-scale package interconnects, This tool offers the main advantages of reduced processing. The number of faster platings that are used as the timing of the wafer motion around the tool is eliminated, And the chemical composition must be propelled by the trough a short distance to the plating bath. There is less risk of leakage from hazardous chemical components. An enlarged view of the multi-metal bump copper + nickel + lead tin and a copper bump array with a solder cap is shown in Figure 18.  This new single-slot embodiment is referred to as a plating calculator. Because it enables the first complete electroplating process to be completed in a single chamber, At the same time, both the chemical composition of the motion and the subsequent rinse water pass through the wafer. Rather than moving the wafer to the chemical composition. This is due to the predictability of a new standard that confers reproducible parameters and repeatability. Based on the entire process sequence and chemical composition and electrical conditions, material, And continuous monitoring of the environment, The predictability is achieved by having better feedback, Forward feed, And the final predictive measurement given.  Some advantages and preferred features selectively include: When the entire wafer plating and rinsing steps can be completed, Reduce wafer handling and damage, Once loaded, the tool does not move the wafer step by step; A more efficient single plating tank capacity gives a faster ROI and a much lower capital cost than a faster return period; Immediately arranging the parameters in the spreadsheet format and making changes to any process -18- 200923134 changes or sequence changes, And the ability to input to other machines with the same results - just like a spreadsheet or program on a computer.  The difference between this tool and other multi-slot systems is: Generally, it provides a very precise control and immediate monitoring and control environment; Plug-and-play chemical composition or "inkjet plating device" mourning, The far smaller slots with a denser mixture of metal-ion chemical compositions are generally used, It can make the slots change, Without a long heating process and a much better tool available time, The smaller slots are designed for this shorter production run. However, it is still possible to handle longer runs by using the same chemical composition in most of the tanks.  The system monitors the grooves for general degradation of metal-ion consumption and chemical composition, Until it signals that it is necessary to replace the slot; The external monitoring of the chemical composition and the plating bath with the in-slot sensor in the chamber has much more consistent and repeatable process control: Between metal deposition for the most active rinsing and cleaning of chambers and wafers, Or active tilting before and after flushing, This tilting is not done in today's tools, And represents a very cost-effective way, To clean a large plating bath area with a minimum amount of water; And filling and plating - the system is also designed to minimize chemical composition leakage, This chemical composition leakage is typically seen by the continuous circulation of the hot fluid through the long-term operation of the piping system. Used for this entire process time, This tool will be filled with the chemical composition and electroplated using the same chemical composition. Or will change the chemical composition periodically, And by moving so much fluid volume, Able to heat the chemical composition, _ take the chemical composition, And substantially increase the use of less power in these costs.  Additional 'a single unit to complete most functions · pre-processing, Electricity -19- 200923134 plating, rinse, dry; Replace most coverage areas, Mechanical arm, Capital cost; The closed tank provides substantially inert gas, To prevent oxidation; An open tank like electroplating; Software program "Inteliplate"; The smart software receives feedback from the metrology sensor in the plating bath and in the slot. Adjusting the plating parameters in the rectifier for a constant plating ratio; And dual function conductivity sensor, Inform when the plating bath is full and the concentration is determined. The single unit is also provided for nanoparticle plating - the addition of metal particles to the chemicals, To promote and improve uniformity after reflow; Tissue layer (Strata) plating process, Here, a plurality of electroplated layers are formed in a predetermined sequence using different chemicals. Since a large amount of flushing and qualifications are eliminated before a different layer can be deposited, As traditional plating systems have, It dramatically accelerates the plating process.  In general, Improved performance including uniformity of thickness, Chemical efficiency,  Fast running ratio of manufacturing, And from the electroless electrolyte to the wafer surface, The quality of the deposited material, especially to the uniformity of the distribution. Existing methods utilize temperature and chemical control in electroless plating, To bring a uniform plating result. Temperature is a key parameter affecting the plating process. Once the mineral liquid contacts a suitable substrate, Electroless plating occurs over a wide range of temperatures. The temperature of a plating solution is a response time program. therefore, The temperature control for electroless plating is limited to a certain range. Electrical contact with a very low power circuit provides a stop/start of a fast switch for electroless plating, It expands the ability to accurately control the electroless process.  Ultrasonic agitation for electroplating tantalum wafers and other electronic substrates produces electroplated deposits from traditional processes. The deposits vary in height from the deposition -20-200923134 across the surface of the wafer. This is due in part to the change in the concentration of metal ions in the boundary layer immediately above the growing metal deposit. agitation, Such as the boundary layer agitation, The composition can be provided by the use of an ultrasonic sensor.  Existing methods utilize a single frequency generator and sensor to vibrate electrolytes, To cause fluid exchange on the surface of the wafer. however, The mass transfer and energy transfer in micro-dimension are the main contributors to the plating rate and power efficiency. To deposit a material onto a particular geometric component, a range of vibration frequencies, amplitude, And hardware fabrics optimize quality and energy transfer. a wider range of vibration frequency generators, sensor, And operating models (vibration models and fabric models) to optimize process parameters, Such as the frequency range, Power range, And the connection of a sensor to a substrate or substrate holder for a special process. By driving most of the sound frequency through the plating electrolyte and across the boundary layer interface, This agitation disintegrates the boundary layer stratification state, Causes micron-sized turbulent mixing. In addition, Here there are air molecules directly on the surface of the wafer, The air molecules are substantially displaced, To achieve a firm and uniform plating result. This disclosure substantially enhances the ability to break the surface tension on the wafer. In favor of And to promote the plating process.  The acoustic energy can be directed upward through the bottom side of the wafer, Guide down on the surface of the wafer, Or traversing the surface of the wafer parallel to the plane of the boundary layer and the wafer. The sound energy is not only a pure function of a constant period, However, it may include a continuous periodic function and a combination of a continuous majority of overlapping frequencies across the audible range of sounds (&apos;white noise&apos;) and the transonic range, Or one of a combination of a series of short duration-pulse acoustic energy packets in the audible sound and/or transonic frequency range. In this technology, Times -21 - 200923134 Speed of sound, Speed of sound, Ultrasonic, And millions of frequency ultrasonic waves can be introduced into a liquid system, Or systems to produce evenly distributed energy in the system or systems, quality, And momentum.  Applications include to be used in semiconductors, MEMS, miniaturization, And the cleanliness of nanotechnology manufacturing, plating, Electroless plating, Mixed purpose. Various wave energy can be maintained in any direction, promote, And/or the active material is introduced into the system or systems. Various waves can be produced originally, amplification, guide,  Pulse wave generation, With/without the same amplitude, Constantly and / or intermittently. Various waves can be piezoelectric, magnetic, Flared, single, most, And / or with or without a waveguide sensor. The method provides for introducing energy and/or momentum into the liquid system and near the surface of the solid, To generate energy on the scale of the scale of the system and the microscale of the nanometer level, Uniform distribution of momentum and mass. One or more sensors can be coupled to the back of a fixture, Wafer chuck, Substrate base, anode, electrode, Horn, Ring, gate, mat, frame, Or on the screen, The waveguides are introduced into the liquid system and near the surface of the solid and the solid-liquid interface. The sensors can include a piezoelectric magnetic material. The various waves generated may include a single frequency, Most frequencies, And/or a range of sweeping waves, It can be controlled individually or simultaneously. The electrolyte can include a solution, colloid, Most of the liquid, Or particulate suspension liquid, May include or without metal ions, Or metal particles, Organic additives, Or neutral, Acidic, Or alkaline water. The portion to be vibrated and/or the surface of the solid may comprise metal, plastic, Ceramic, Oh, And / or glass. The near solid surface can be grouped in the range of a few nanometers to tens of microns. The solid-liquid interface can be composed of -22-200923134 in the range of nanometers. The surface of the solid may comprise one or more materials, It may be flat or include a component size ranging from one nanometer to 100 micrometers.  Microsolid agitation is preferred, Because it enhances the quality and energy transfer of plating materials, To ensure the quality of the plating materials. Parts designed in small or small sizes, A large amount of mechanical agitation cannot efficiently obtain this mass/energy transfer, Unexpected reactions result in lower deposition quality and power efficiency. on the other hand, Microsolid agitation can penetrate into the microcomponent and achieve optimal mass/energy delivery. The wider frequency range of the wave generator and the frequency and amplitude conditions that the sensor and power supply can use in the plating system are optimized. The plating system includes a deposition material, Chemicals, Plating cell structure' and substrate. Sensors coupled to the plated object and a large amount of agitated hardware provide more paths, To adjust the microsolids agitation efficiency.  Eliminating the operational model of the standing wave node and the resulting non-uniform plating material distribution can be used. Microsolid agitation also opens the door member to optimize the relevant application, Such as physical and chemical cleaning, Degassing, etc. Finally, the micro-solid agitation enables the solid nano-plating. Stirring to improve the uniformity of thickness, Power efficiency, Fast running ratio of manufacturing, And the quality of the deposited material from the electrolyte to the surface of the wafer, particularly deep vias greater than 80 microns and surfaces having a high aspect ratio.  In an exemplary embodiment, As shown in Figure 2-5, roughly two types of ultrasonic sensors are used. First, one or more (substantially two) horns are in the base of the plating bath. Further, a ring member may be formed in a plating chamber disposed between the cathode (wafer) and the anode. The ring or shrink strap -23- 200923134 is generally available in stainless steel and multiple grooves. Each sensor generally provides an optimum frequency. Some frequencies increase the adhesion between the wafer and the plated metal. Software control can be used, To change the frequencies, To optimize the process, for example, By sweeping the frequencies, To eliminate standing waves. The agitation also greatly increases the uniformity of the sediment, Quality transfer, Flushing efficiency, Degassing, etc.  The ultrasonic sensors can also be selectively used for via activation and cleaning of the wafer and/or plating bath. In order to accommodate this shock, The wafer chuck can be selectively mounted on a support base using a crevice sheet. The crevices provide some "give" during the shock.  The one or more electromechanical sensors are substantially controlled by an electronic waveform generator capable of producing both pure periodicity and arbitrary electrical waveforms. The sensors are connected to a vibrating surface by substantially one or more rigid members and/or circular rings. The ring surrounds the entire wafer to be processed, It is made of non-magnetic materials. The quality of the connecting rod members and the ring members is substantially sufficiently low, So as not to weaken the waveform to be shipped near the wafer. These rods and ring members are also substantially rigid and rigid. In order to accurately transport the intended waveform. The sensor and the connecting rod can be directly positioned below the wafer itself. Via the wafer holder, Wafer platen, Or the wafer chuck transports acoustic energy to the wafer. In this particular embodiment, The energy imparted to the wafer holder by the sensor and the rod moves upwardly through the wafer holder into the wafer itself, The wafer is caused to shift vertically in a manner synchronized with the motion of the sensor. The range of the shift distance (waveform amplitude) is approximately between 1 micrometer and 200 micrometers.  The second mechanism for imparting vibration energy to the wafer couples the -24-200923134 connecting rod and sensor to the wafer holder in a manner The motion is made parallel to the wafer surface. Due to the fragile nature of these wafers,  The force can be grouped and not directly coupled to the wafer holder.  Coupled to the wafer platen or wafer chuck, It sequentially transports the shock to the wafer itself. This acoustic energy can be grouped and guided by the outer diameter of the wafer to the center. The medium used for the transfer of energy is directly to the surface of the wafer, And give the best for the best plating. In this case, The effect of the energy of the vibration is to rapidly shift the wafer back and forth in the direction of the wafer. It has an amplitude of approximately 1 200 microns.  In the third institution that practices this disclosure, By the action of two separators, The energy of the shock is imparted to the wafer simultaneously or in various sequences specified by the process in the two axes. Sensically mounted below the wafer, And another sensor is mounted to the crystal. The precision of the optimum vibration frequency will vary with the size of the wafer and the size of the surface component to be plated. The frequency used is in the range of approximately 1 Hz and approximately 21 kHz. The pure period itself is not generally used in this disclosure. In order to avoid harmonic resonance and/or standing wave formation on the side of the plating chamber. Conversely, a mixture of heterogeneous overlapping frequencies (&apos;white noise&apos;) can be employed in combination with a periodic function of the composition. The application of the vibration energy can be applied continuously during the cycle, Or can be periodically pulsed. The rigid wafer platen support structure substantially completes the second function of the wafer through the vacuum, Mechanical connection, Or the direct direction of the other method is the sensing but the energy is completely passed through the different agitating planes of the micrometer and the sensing is closed by the direct circular side of the wafer on the wafer. In each other, each plating machine: Favorable adhesion,  -25- 200923134 and is a rigid and one structure, The energy of the shock is conducted in the same manner throughout the entire wafer (e.g., the deflection in the wafer platen and the wafer should be as small as possible). The connector rod or bracket is positioned between the wafer/wafer platen and the sensor. In this way, the vibration energy of the sensor is faithfully transported and transported to the wafer with a minimum amount of attenuation. The connector bars can be configured to be securely coupled to the wafer platen support. The connector member is desirably made of a non-magnetic mechanical rigid material having a low motion quality. But not limited to titanium.  The material including the connection to the sensor and the connection hardware from the sensor is substantially mechanically rigid, And has a low inertia. The hardware should ideally also be non-magnetic and non-inductive, So as not to affect the quality of the plating deposit on the wafer or substrate.  The sensor can be assembled to form a terminal that is securely coupled to the connector bar or bracket. In this way, almost all of the kinetic energy of the sensor is guided into the wafer platen fixture. The sensor can be configured to be firmly supported and fastened. One of the magnetostrictive or piezoelectric sensors can be used. Magnetostrictive sensors typically operate between approximately one volt and approximately one volt. Piezoelectric sensors typically operate between 〇-4 volts. When compared to a piezoelectric sensor, Due to the large reliability of the magnetostrictive sensor, The higher force constant of the magnetostrictive sensor, The lower operating voltage of the magnetostrictive sensor, And the smoother response of the magnetostrictive sensor to temperature changes, A magnetostrictive sensor is a preferred embodiment of the piezoelectric sensor. The sensor can be grouped and driven by a programmable arbitrary waveform generator. The generator can supply approximately 1 Hz and approximately 2 1 at -26-200923134 Both periodicity and arbitrary waveforms in the frequency range between 0 00 Hertz. The waveform generator can be directly programmed or controlled by software operation as a component of the plating apparatus control system.  The sensor can be pulled a farther closer to the wafer platen, Or directly below the wafer platen, Or in a configuration that is integrated with the wafer platen. however,  The electric field generated by the sensor device may be coupled to an electric field on the wafer in the wafer plating bath, It can affect the process consistency of the wafer plating process. The amplitude and density of the shock energy coupled to the wafer can be increased by adding or subtracting one or more auxiliary sensors to the primary sensor. The auxiliary sensors are directed to the same axis or along one of the axes of the primary sensor at a right angle. This disclosure can also be applied to electroless (autocatalytic) metal plating. To increase the plating ratio, Removing the bubbles formed by the surface to be plated, And establish a more homogeneous plating deposit thickness distribution. When the electroplating reactor unit is infused with electromineralization, And the anode current is turned on (in the case of electrolyte plating), Or the reactor unit is at the optimum process temperature (in the case of electroless or autocatalytic plating) The sensors are operated substantially during the wafer plating process.  The use of ultrasonic sensors provides an aspect of solid state energy for a variety of electroplating and unit operation kinematics. The advantages of this technique achieve a key difference for this disclosure. Because they give a wide range of functions that just outweigh the typical focus of plating. for example, Providing room design for directing energy to a suitable surface is provided by the present disclosure, And knowing what energy is applied to the process and how to respond to the desired result, Feedforward, And pre- -27- 200923134 The process control controls the process expertise appropriately controlled. In addition, the software, measuring, And know how to use the D S P electronics to manage complex sensor outputs while ensuring the desired waveform and energy control expertise, And the instant mode control software is facilitated by the specific embodiment of the disclosure.  Again, The leading edge of the only solid-state directional energy plating (DEP) is controlled by multiple frequencies, This implementation of the multi-mode system, Provides immediate feedback and feed-forward capabilities. Predictive process monitoring and the use of such sound waves as a “snake” is a step to detect chemical composition densities and conditions and metal thickness levels. The main process kinematics that are expected to use this energy by this disclosure are effective, Because they give a lower cost plating bath with less chemical composition flow and use, And improved plating ratio and product quality. The frequency of the second broad range is of interest, Although other frequency ranges can be used. for example, A frequency of about 20 to about 20 kilohertz can be used for general electric shovel, Soft metal, And stirring, Here, the frequency of about 500 kHz to about 2 megahertz can be used for fine parts, Fine spacing, And wafer cleaning, It is very likely that the through hole is plated. for example, The latter frequency range can be used for boundary layer agitation and via activation at the wafer level, Through hole cleaning and startup, Electroplating tank wall and chamber cleaning, Chemical composition agitation and diffusion of particles throughout the plating bath, Cavitation in the metal layer to begin the next plating, Mix layered metal layers using our layered plating process,  Use the sonar measurement method to measure the bump height or film thickness, Adhesion promotion, Electroplating ratio is accelerated, And/or diffusion and agitation of the via holes in the via holes and the inner side of the wafer boundary layer.  The following summary details the use of electroplating, sensor, And the research and experimentation of the university group -28- 200923134, The university group uses high-frequency energy waves to seek improved plating. These results most typically involve small areas and small samples. This disclosure can be used to augment these results over a larger 200 mm or 300 mm wafer surface. And use different frequency controls. The method includes a uniform and controllable waveform energy application - the back side of the wafer, positive, And laterally across the wafer surface and selectively providing feedback based on different wafer metal conductors and surfaces. The method can also include measuring the waveform and energy of the result. To ensure that they are repeatable and measurable. The method may additionally include self-testing of systems with virtual or no load, To ensure proper operation.  Key process kinematics wafer boundary layer agitation and through-hole filling, The surface of the electric tank chamber is clean, And the particles in the solution are mixed and suspended. Similar to pulse plating used in rectifier control, A preferred method for general ultrasonic waveform and frequency control is to use pulse-shaped reaction optimization.

The side ring member 400 is positioned in the process volume 2 substantially at a position immediately adjacent to the periphery of the substrate to be plated. The side ring member 4 can be attached to an inner surface of the plating bath 1 at a first point 401 and to a sensor at a second point 402. A plurality of apertures 403 can be formed into the side ring member 400, The symmetry vibration is also prevented from occurring in the side ring member 400 by allowing the plating solution to flow through the holes -29-200923134. Figure 5 illustrates the positioning of the sensor 1 〇 8 and the side ring member 400.  The mechanism that causes electrical contact to the seed layer of the semiconductor wafer is typically known as a contact ring. The wafer is processed in a plating reactor. The result of depositing metal onto the working surface of the wafer devices. Wafers typically are prepared for electrodeposition of metals by first applying a seed layer to the surface of the wafer by other means. This surface receives subsequent electrodeposition of the metal. Above the active area of the wafer, The seed layer can be patterned by a lithography method. A pattern of a seed layer is exposed to the electrolyte. The photo-induced uranium is removed from the outer edge of the wafer. To provide an area for causing the electrical contact. The area at the outer edge of the wafer is referred to as the mutually exclusive area. And the edge of the wafer is limited to about 1 toward the center. 5 mm annular width. The mutually exclusive zone is the area in which electrical contact is made. The mutually exclusive region can be sealed from exposure to the electrolyte to protect the contact/seed layer interface. The current density at the contact/seed layer interface is relatively high compared to the rest of the wafer. If an electrolyte is present in the interface, the seed layer can be eroded, creating an island region of seed around the contact and thereby interrupting conduction through the seed layer to the remainder of the wafer. The wafer contact ring of the present disclosure generally provides one or more exemplary embodiments as described below. These techniques provide a preferred mutual exclusion zone seal and a stronger electrical contact, but the wafer itself has fewer masks (i.e., the area of the mutually exclusive area is minimized). The single unit contact ring is sealed to the electrical contacts that house the wafer&apos; while separating and protecting the electrical contacts in the same portion. -30- 200923134 Figure 6 shows a cross-sectional view of a reactor cut through its center on an upright plane. The fluid body of the electrolyte is received between the wafer and the protruding anode. A voltage or current potential is applied to the anode' and the contacts at the wafer are grounded. The substrate 600 is in communication with the contact ring 114. The contact ring 141 includes an annular seal 601 that is radially oriented toward the interior of the plurality of electrical contacts 602. Each of the electrical contacts 602 is positioned to electrically contact an outer peripheral portion of the substrate 60 to apply a plating bias thereto to support the electrochemical deposition process. Figure 7 is a detailed cross-sectional view taken from the first and second sub-assemblies of the contact ring packaged as shown in Figure 6. Figure 8 is a detailed cross-sectional view of the contact/seal/wafer interface of Figure 7. Figure 9 is an isometric view of an exemplary information transfer bus (bus) ring 900 that delivers current to each of the contacts of the contact ring 114, the contacts and the wafer in the mutually exclusive region The seed layer is bitten. In operation, the wafer can be configured to be forcibly engaged with a loop that is received in a cassette just inside the contacts. The 0-ring causes a seal on the wafer surface inside the exposed seed layer to prevent electrolyte exposure to the contact/seed layer interface. The contacts generally comprise spring loaded pogo pins, and in this embodiment, the spring pins are commercially available test probes. Top Compression A force of a spring housed within each pogo pin that generally accommodates an axial stroke of 1 mm. The compliance of the axial stroke in the pogo pin allows the wafer to seek a sealing position against the 〇-shaped ring while still causing contact with the conductive portion of the pogo pin/seed interface. The ring contact subassembly large -31 - 200923134 has four information transfer path ring members 90' as shown in Fig. 9 and the ring members are substantially radially encapsulated in four individual 90 degree images. Each of the information transfer paths 900 is provided with nine spring pins. A total of 36 spring pins are spaced apart from the wafer seed layer and equidistantly spaced about their 360 degree circumference. The plurality of spring pins are evenly distributed to the seed layer&apos; and improve the metal deposition properties. The individual information transfer paths 900 are generally associated with each other thereby providing a mechanism to measure the variability between each of the four quadrants. However, a complex information transfer path 900 can be provided, the resolution of the measurement. Previous deflection designs have made the connection of this discrete high voltage line to the busbars unrealistic by methods such as methods. The relatively large stroke of the pogo pins strikes the interface of the wafer, causing the design to tolerate variable wafer thickness, the wafer sealing against the indeterminate position of the crucible ring, and in use. Repeated use of proven test probe technology. The ring contact design is intended to have continuous contacts that are hard, uninterrupted contacts/seed interfaces. These designs lack this face and the interface tolerates the above geometric variations. Previous toroidal contact designs have also utilized metal flexures that behave like small cantilevered beams and columns, and when forced to small seals, limit their axial compliance to at least 1 mm. Assembly method or expensive manufacturing method to form and cut the curved portion. The ring member utilizing the metal flexure portion has a higher height: the figure shows a circle cut through the center in an upright plane, the limit Each direction is arranged in contact to achieve a more uniform thickness and uniform electrical insulation, and the increase in impedance is made, the measurement becomes a compliance tolerance, and a novel should be a prior obedience to create a firm interface. The size of the package is due to the complexity of the individual cross-section of the ring contact -32- 200923134. Figure 11 is a detailed cross-sectional view taken through the ring contact subassembly showing the wafer in contact with an electrically conductive elastomer. The elastomer is compressed between the crystal and a slip ring 900. The information transfer path loops conduct current to each of the conductive elements in the elastomer. The wafer mutually exclusive region and the conductive element are sealed to isolate the electrolyte by the non-conductive portion of the elastomer. Figure 1 is a detailed cross-sectional view of the wafer with the wafer removed. Figure 1 is an isometric view of a section of the conductive elastomer 1 2 〇 。. The conductive elements are simultaneously molded inside the non-conductive elastomer in a radial pattern that matches the radius of the wafer. In operation, the wafer is substantially forcibly engaged with the conductive elastomer 1 200. The non-conductive portion causes a seal on the surface of the wafer inside the exposed seed layer to prevent electrolyte from being exposed to the conductive element/seed layer interface. The combination of the conductive and non-conductive elastomers permits axial compliance when squeezed between the crystal and the information transfer passage ring member 90. The compliance of the axial stroke in the elastomer allows the wafer to seek a sealing position against the non-conductive portion while still causing contact with the conductive portion of the elastomeric interface. The ring contact subassembly generally comprises a plurality of segmented electrically conductive elastomers 1 200. Each segment can be assembled to surround the circumference of the wafer to provide a 360 degree sealing contact. The plurality of conductive elements achieve a more uniform current distribution to the seed layer and improve the thickness uniformity of the metal deposition. The integration of the sealing element with the conductive element of the elastomer eliminates the axial dimension stacking of the contact plus the seal, thereby reducing the axial height of the ring contact from 3 mm to 2 mm, which allows the fluid agitation element to be Placed at -33-200923134 close to the wafer surface without rubbing on top of the information transfer path ring member 900. It also eliminates the radial dimension stacking of the contacts plus the seals, thereby reducing the radial annular dimensions required to cause the seal and contact with the seed layer within the boundaries of a narrow mutually exclusive zone. The integrated seal/conductive elastomer provides substantially an industrially usable component and has proven reliability for electrical contact applications in flat panel display technology. Thus, a metal fiber, sharp or blunt metal tip (generally formed by drawing, molding, etching, or machining) can be assembled into the elastomer to form a contact with the metal tips. / sealing assembly and surface, the metal tips are slightly extended, or sunk, or at the same surface level of the elastomer to obtain a liquid-tight seal and isolation between the elastomer and the wafer surface And obtaining a good electrical contact between the metal tip and the seed crystal of the wafer. The tip selectively provides copper, copper beryllium alloy, titanium, or steel, and may optionally be coated with gold, platinum, or palladium. The elastomer selectively provides polyfluorene oxide, fluorinated rubber, polystyrene, or polypropylene. The in-line contact/seal assembly can be constructed by molding, injection, extrusion, or machining. The electrical contact width from the edge of the wafer toward the center of the wafer can be grouped to be approximately zero. 5, 1, 1.5, 2 or 2. 5 mm, or about any width in this range. The width of the seal from the edge of the wafer toward the center of the wafer can be grouped to be approximately 1, 1. 5, 2, 2_5, 3, 3. 5, 4, 4. 5 or 5 mm, or about any width in the range. The tip of the elastomer surface that protrudes or sinks into the surface of the elastomer is approximately 0, 0. 1, 0. 2, 0. 3, 0. 4, 0. 5 or 0_6 mm, or about any length in the range. The tips are generally uniform & have a variation of less than about -34 - 200923134 0 · 2 mm. The surface relief of the elastomer may be grouped to be uniform and less than about 〇. 2 mm change. The total thickness of the tips, elastomers and metals can be grouped in the range of about 2 to 8 mm. The considerable axial compliance of the elastomer results in a compliant electrical interface to the wafer, resulting in a design that tolerates variable wafer thickness, machining tolerances, and uncertainty of the wafer seal against the elastomer. position. Previous ring contact designs have been attempted to have continuous contacts that create a rigid, uninterrupted contact/seed interface. These designs lack this compliant interface that tolerates the aforementioned geometric variations. Previous ring contact designs also utilized metal flexures that behave like small cantilever beams and columns, and when forced into small-sized envelopes, limit their axial compliance to at least 1. Between millimeters. Rings utilizing metal flexures are costly due to complex assembly methods or expensive manufacturing methods to form and cut the individual flex portions. In another embodiment of the disclosure, an EDM contact and a seal ring are provided that are half etched or wire cut. This embodiment is a fabrication of semi-micro etched or wire cut EDM microetched metal contacts and seal rings to optimize plated contacts and seals for semiconductor and microelectronics. Improved performance includes optimized contact for uniform distribution of current on the plated substrate and low electrical resistance; complete sealing without chemical and electrical leakage, high pressure tolerance and photoresist and sealing Low allowable deformation of the material; minimizing the effects of fluid dynamics by seal geometry; and high performance fluid dynamics and electrokinetic reaction kinematics. Existing methods utilize the traditional techniques of mechanical and molding processes to make contact parts and seals -35- 200923134 parts. The semiconductor and microelectronics industry has advanced to the early stages of the nanotechnology era. The size of the devices and the size of the parts to be processed are continuing to shrink, making contact and sealing increasingly difficult. In the manufacture of small contacts and seals for electroplated parts, semi-micro uranium engraving or wire-cutting ED Μ microfabrication generally utilizes the MEM S technology, which enables the rapid manufacture of contacts, seals, and combinations in a standardized manner. Establish precise dimensions and low tolerances of the part, high electrical conductivity of the contacts, uniform distribution of current, less sealing area, low profile of the seal, and high turbulence of the fluid. Figure 14 shows a schematic cross-sectional view of the tip prior to etching. Figure i5 shows a schematic cross-sectional view of the etched microcontact at the contact tip, which is substantially fabricated using MEMS technology by a metal or alloy with or without another metal or alloy. to make. Figure 16 shows a schematic cross-sectional view of an etched microcontact having a cladding or laminate of isolation seals. Geometry and size may vary. Figure 17 illustrates a perspective view of an exemplary contact ring 114 having a plurality of electrical contact fingers 17 that extend radially inward therefrom. The contact fingers 1 700 are generally configured to electrically contact a perimeter or edge portion of a substrate to be plated. Figure 17 also illustrates the slip ring 900, which is configured to be powered by the electrical component to the contact ring 114. The cladding material for the contact ring 14 or the collector ring 900 can optionally include PVDF (polydifluoroethylene). Ethylene), polyvinyl chloride (polyethylene), or materials such as fluorinated rubber. The contacts of this embodiment provide continuity of contact to ensure a uniform current distribution. A small or sharply -36- 200923134 design of the plated contact tip can penetrate the surface of the conductive metal or alloy oxygen or another insulating layer to cause low contact resistance. The contacts can be fabricated using MEMS technology to etch micro-components; or wire-cut EDM technology to machine micro-components; and coating/stacking techniques for accurate, accurate, and cost-effective contact and seals The low profile of the seal generally allows for uniform flow over the surface of the substrate and adjustment of the thickness distribution of the diffusion layer. This precision seal generally allows for higher tolerances and improved sealing and leakage prevention. The more rigid material causes the contact and seal to be more difficult to deform, while still allowing deflection as shown in Figure 16. Prior to operation, the contact ring can be grouped into a flexible comb with a reduced circular configuration. Refers to the touch with the power source. These fingers are only slightly curved. When the contact is made, the tip substantially rubs each of the fingers, thereby removing anything on the surface and providing an improved electrical contact. The system is thus self-cleaning. Figure 19 illustrates a diagram of an exemplary multimetal plating process of the present invention. The method begins at step 1900 and continues to step 1 920 where the substrate is positioned in the processing volume of the plating bath. In step 1 902, the substrate support member is positioned substantially on a cathode, and the substrate support also provides rotation of the substrate in the processing volume. Once the substrate is positioned on the substrate support member, the plating bath can be closed or sealed ready to be filled with the electrolyte solution. At step 1904, the process is configured to group the first metal layer to the first plating charge on the substrate. For example, the first plating solution may be a solution that is configured to support copper. At step 1 906, an electrical bias can be applied to the cathode for processing. Body flow pressure selection. If the substrate is low to electrical contact with the ruthenium oxide process, and between the base-37-200923134 plate support member and an anode assembly position of the energy storage solution, the anode assembly is positioned and supported on the substrate. The substrates on the support members are in a parallel orientation. The electrical bias is advantageous for the electrodeposition process and can include forward and reverse biases, pulses, and other waveforms as is conventional in the art of electrodeposition. In general, both the anode assembly and the substrate support member are housed within the processing volume of the plating bath and immersed in the plating solution contained therein. Once the electrical bias has been applied for a specified period of time, the plating process for the first metal is substantially complete. The method then continues to step 1908 where the first plating solution can be discharged from the processing volume. Once the plating solution is discharged, the processing volume (and the substrate held in the processing volume) can be rinsed or cleaned by introducing a cleaning solution at step 1910. In an exemplary embodiment of the invention, the cleaning solution introduced in step 119 may be deionized water. Once the cleaning step is completed, the cleaning solution can also be discharged from the processing volume. The exemplary method may additionally include introduction of an inert gas such as nitrogen or argon into the processing volume to prevent oxidation of the substrate or metal layer deposited thereon, as noted in step 192. The inventors have noted that it would be beneficial to introduce the inert gas throughout the entire plating process, which would be particularly important during the process of discharging, rinsing, and refilling the processing volume with a plating solution, The substrate was not immersed in a plating solution during these processes. At step 1914, a second plating solution can be introduced into the processing volume. The second plating solution can be grouped to support electro-deposition of a second metal such as nickel. A second electrical bias can be applied between the anode assembly and the substrate at step 1 1 1 6 ' to facilitate electroplating the second metal onto the substrate. Once -38-200923134 the deposition of the second metal has been completed 'the processing volume can be discharged again the rinsed plating solution' and the substrate is still positioned in the processing volume, as noted by step 1 9 18 . Furthermore, if desired, the processing volume can also be filled with an inert gas, as in step 119. If the third metal layer is to be deposited, the aforementioned process can be repeated. However, if the electroplating process ends after the second metal layer, the substrate can also be removed from the processing volume in step 1918, and the exemplary method is completed in step 1920.
