Description

The system of high efficiency ozone water cleaning semiconductor wafer and method thereof
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of system and method thereof of high efficiency ozone water cleaning semiconductor wafer, it is the technical field that relates to the ozone clean of semiconductor crystal wafer, be meant that especially a kind of gas phase ozone and aqueous solvent height matter in a mechanism of utilizing passes and the ozone water solution of liquid phase dissolved formation cleaning solution, and ozone carries out oxidation reaction to the wafer material surface, cooperate in the manufacturing process for cleaning, Ozone Water cleaning solution concentration monitoring and concentration feedback control are kept, can be fast effectively with photoresistance or other organic attachment of semiconductor and relevant wafer of photoelectric process and glass baseplate surface, the ozone clean method and the device thereof that clean of oxidation Decomposition in addition.
Background technology
Press, the making of semiconductor crystal wafer, included each step in processing procedure: etching, oxidation, deposition, removing photoresistance and cmp etc., it all is the source of causing crystal column surface to pollute, and the pollution of crystal column surface, one to the biggest obstacle that is process quality and output, therefore, essential through the repeated multiple times manufacturing process for cleaning in the processing procedure of wafer.And (VLSI, development ULSI) require more to become harsh for the wafer cleanliness factor along with very lagre scale integrated circuit (VLSIC).
The purpose of crystal column surface cleaning is to remove all trace contaminants, comprises organic substance, metal attachments, particulate etc., and the thin oxide film (Thin oxide) of control crystal column surface formation, and keeps the smooth and anti-water of crystal column surface, anti-electricity condition.Known at present and often be used cleaning method can generally be divided into wet type and dry process.Wherein the dry type cleaning way is that the chemical reaction that utilizes high-energy (as heat energy, electric energy, radiant) to produce carries out the clean processing of surface knot.In addition this damp process utilizes solvent, acid solution, interfacial agent, mixes that pure water washs, washing and cleaning operation methods such as oxidation, etch and dissolving; This also is the most normal at present adopted cleaning way.As for the wet-cleaned technology is the general user of dealer at present, comprises following several method:
1.H 2SO 4/ H 2O 2@100~130 ℃ (SPM) claim again " Prianha Clean ", in order to remove organic pollution.
2.HF or (DHF) @20~25 ℃, main application is for corroding oxide-film (Silicon ozide) to dilute HF.
3.NH 4OH/H 2O 2/ H 2O@30~80 ℃ (APM) are used for buck and erosion surface, so that remove particulate; Simultaneously can remove organic substance and metal pollutant.
4.HCl/H 2O 2/ H 2O@65~85 ℃ (HPM) are mainly used in the removing metal pollutant.
5.H 2SO 4/ O 3/ H 2Organic substance, metal can be removed in O@90~120 ℃ (SOM), and reduce H 2SO 4Consumption.
Present again dealer often is used in the RCA standard cleaning method (RCAStandard Clean) of the cleaning step of leading portion silicon wafer process, promptly is that comprehensive aforementioned the 1st~4 kind of method is to carry out the wafer clean; Aforementioned these ablutions, removal for the organic photoresistance of crystal column surface and other solid contaminant, all can reach the clean effect of height, but in manufacturing process for cleaning, aforementioned RCA wafer cleaning procedure, according to estimates, essential consumption 45 every day, the ultra-pure water that 000 ton (water consumption every day that is equivalent to ten 8 o'clock wafer factories) is above, and at high temperature reach effect, employed H of while 2SO 4, HCl and H 2O 2Deng medicament, will produce up to a hundred tons of strong acid and strong base waste liquids (bazardous waste) discharging.These shortcomings often cause (Fab) air and exhaust treatment system burden overloading in the dust free room, and chemicals volatility at high temperature, make the composition concentration of cleaning liquid wayward, and its clean effect is lowered.
Moreover, " how riceization reaches processing procedure ", " green production " is common trend present and high-tech industry development in the future, comprise the rice semiconductor dark time, TFT-LCD, the III-Vs communication part, ultraprecise processing, how rice made, how technology such as rice electronic building brick, all actively towards hyperfine and super clean direction research and development, how in the riceization processing environment, the minute quantity pollutant of arbitrary link is (as microparticle, metal ion, organic impurities etc.) existence, all may cause process rate to injure greatly, and the clean degree demand of the processing procedure of this strictness, can't provide via the RCA cleaning procedure of conditional electronic processing procedure, and aforementioned these high water resourcess consume, the processing procedure of high pollution water discharging also will have a strong impact on the development of high-tech electronic industry.Particularly, " friendly produce (the EnvironmentallyBenign Manufacturing) of environment " is the recent tendency of semiconductor and the future development of opto-electronics processing procedure, the research and development actuating force of new-type processing procedure be pursue the same with existing technology good or better carry out processing procedure (Process Performance), cleaner, more friendly to environment simultaneously.
The ozone manufacture comprises photochemical method at present, and this technology is used in the application of making small amount of ozone more.Electric discharge is a kind of similar nature electric shock phenomenon, and is therefore very high for the humidity requirement of air.And so-called electric slurry method, utilize the glass-vacuum tube contain blunt gas, under high-energy, produce electron bombardment and make ozone.The wafer that is used for as for the made ozone of aforementioned manner cleans, be gas phase ozone must be dissolved in the pure water to form clean solution and carry out washing and cleaning operation, and be to be different from the required low concentration ozone of traditional industry (1ppm with interior to several ppm) utilization, semiconductor and photoelectricity manufacturing process for cleaning need the middle and high concentration Ozone Water (tens of ppm scope) of long-time stable supply, therefore, the water solubility of gas phase ozone is the important bottleneck of a ring for making super clean cleaning solution ozoniferous.And the solubility of gas phase ozone is low, and environment is become because of extremely responsive; And specifically influence the principal element of gas phase Ozone Water solubility, comprise concentration, solution temperature and the acid-base value etc. of gas phase ozone.
Existing technology all attempts merely to make convergence thermodynamics saturated concentration to improve the ozone dissolved efficiency with the control physical condition, delivers the result by correlation technique data and patent, as:
Produce system aspects in Ozone Water, US5 is arranged, (Ozone Water produces system design, carries out O with pipeline reactor for 971,368 (Ozone Water produces system design, improves solubility with pressurizedvessel) and DE19752769 3Dissolving).
At wafer purging system design aspect, US5 is arranged, 776,296, US5,464,480 (1~15 ℃ of low temperature) immersion type Ozone Water wafer cleaning cell body), DE19801360 (rotary Ozone Water wafer cleans cell body, 20~70 ℃ of operating temperatures) and JP2000058496 (high temperature formula Ozone Water wafer purging system).
At wafer cleaning formulation design aspect, US6 is arranged, 080,531[is with DI-O 3The organics that (about 36ppm) carries out the containing metal oxide layer removes], US5,964,953[is with DI-O 3(several ppm) cooperates NH4OH (aq), removes Al, organics], US5,759,971 (with O 3Dissolve in 0.03~0.05%HF, as the wafer cleaning fluid), US5,632,847[is with O 3Import (HCl+HF) (aq), with bubble kenel cleaning wafer surface], US5,626,681, EP0708480[is with DI-O 3(several ppm)+HF (aq) cooperates brush-scrubbing, cleans polished wafer, reduces microroughness] and FR2779980[with O 3Mix with HF (aq) again after dissolving in HCl (aq), as the wafer cleaning fluid].
Analyze the patent content of aforementioned these Ozone Water cleaning solution correlative studys,, reach and improve consistency of ozone water and promote the reaction rate purpose how with improvement Ozone Water gas-liquid contact system and the control of purging system temperature and pressure opereating specification; But the efficient in practical application is not desirable to the greatest extent yet, edge is because of single limited to the improvement of promoting consistency of ozone water with the thermodynamic (al) ozone saturated concentration of convergence to change physical condition, and to so far, research and development also focus mostly in the application of low concentration (several ppm) for Ozone Water wafer cleaning formulation, this is the maximum technical bottleneck that present stage Ozone Water technical development meets with, also be cause so far can't popularization and application on processing procedure reason one.
Another important reasons is aforementioned these patent contents, is applied in the wafer cleaning process, can't grasp fully to clean in the cell body ozone concentration distribution situation or can adjust automatically; Press, the ozone program was used in the wafer cleaning of manufacture of semiconductor in the past, mainly by high concentration gas phase ozone, to disperse stirring or aerator that ozone gas is dispersed into tiny bubble, long-pending to increase the gas-liquid contact surface, and then improve matter biography effect, but bubble still is subjected to the restriction of gravity and buoyancy, matter biography effect and pure water phased soln fast can't effectively be provided, form high concentration liquid phase Ozone Water.When wafer immerses rinse bath, can consume the ozone in the cleaning solution fast, and under can't grasping the situation of cleaning ozone concentration distribution situation in the cell body or can adjust automatically, often cause ozone concentration deficiency in the solution of course of reaction middle and later periods, can't be effectively organic substance (as photoresistance) or other oxide layer of crystal column surface be removed, must prolong the scavenging period of wafer, and then cause output to promote.More can't carry out a large amount of manufacturing process for cleaning operations of continous way.Though existing at present part improvement program, by the oxidability of irradiation UV acceleration by light ozone, the degree of its promotion still depends primarily on the ozone concentration in the aqueous solution, not only in the ability of the concrete lifting oxidation of the irradiation institute energy of this UV light; On at present known gas phase ozone and pure water dissolving technology, still can't obtain effective breakthrough.
