In this coating developing system, coating process portion 24, particularly wire coater unit (LCT) 44 and planar coater unit (ACT) 40 are suitable for the present invention.Below, utilize Fig. 3~Figure 14, the wire coater unit (LCT) 44 of one embodiment of the present invention and the formation and the effect of planar coater unit (ACT) 40 are elaborated.
Fig. 3 represents that wire coater unit (LCT) the 44 interior major parts of this embodiment constitute.This wire coater unit (LCT) 44 has: for keeping the objective table 62 of the horizontal mounting of substrate G; Substrate G on relative this objective table 62 is the resist nozzle (hereinafter to be referred as " ink jet type nozzle ") 64 of the ink jet type of point-like or wire ejection resist liquid, along the nozzle scan mechanism 66 that the XY direction moves; Controller (not shown) with the control each several part.
In nozzle scan mechanism 66, be configured in the left and right sides of objective table 62, transversal objective table 62 tops along a pair of Y guide rail 68,68 of Y direction, an X guide rail 70 along directions X, under the effect of the Y direction drive division 72 of for example being furnished with motor, can on Y guide rail 68,68, move along the Y direction.And, at X guide rail 70 upper edge directions Xs the removable stand (carriage) (conveyance body) 74 of self-propelled for example or external drive formula is installed, ink jet type nozzle 64 is installed on this stand 74.Because can move in the Y direction by Y direction drive division 72, can move at directions X by stand 74, with both combinations, ink jet type nozzle 64 is moved between any 2 on the XY face above the objective table 62 or along arbitrary line or curvilinear path.
Ink jet type nozzle 64 constitutes: in its ejiction opening inside, as jetting system, for example be built-in with piezoelectric element, because the electric drive signal of above-mentioned controller transmission, make this piezoelectric element contracts action, the resist liquid in the nozzle is pressurizeed, from ejiction opening ejection drop by this systolic pressure.In addition, resist liquid supply unit (not shown) directly or by the pipe arrangement (not shown) is connected with resist nozzle 64 as container.
This wire coater unit (LCT) 44, because above-mentioned structure, can be on part or all of predefined dispensing area circumference on the substrate G, the coating treating fluid forms the resist-coating film of wire.For example, as shown in Figure 4, make ink jet type nozzle 64 by nozzle scan mechanism 66,4 limits at substrate G, track with (1) → (2) → (3) → (4) moves, owing to the resist drop of the aequum each point to this track, on dispensing area RE circumference, can form rectangular wire resist-coating film 76 from ink jet type nozzle 64.The dispensing area RE here be meant in planar coater unit described later (ACT) 40 resist liquid with method without spin by the zone on the substrate G of planar coating.Usually, the outer fringe position of dispensing area RE is set in end a few minutes (as the 10mm) inboard apart from substrate G.
The shape of the plan view case of wire resist-coating film 76 is a standard with the shape (quadrangle) that meets with substrate G, but also can select and planar resist-coating (ACT) claimed condition of back operation, any variation that treatment conditions adapt.For example, Thickness Variation or unevenness for the edge part of the resist-coating film 200 of the prior art of more effective minimizing such as Figure 22~shown in Figure 27, in the planar resist-coating (ACT) of subsequent handling, become substrate one end side of the directions X of coating starting position A, make that part enlarged drawing LA is depicted as circle in the circle of the bight 76A of wire resist-coating film 76 such as Fig. 8, the pattern of Ju Jiing to the inside, or in the substrate the other end side that becomes the directions X that is coated with final position C, the bight 76C of wire resist-coating film 76 is fined away be acute angle shown in part enlarged drawing LC in the circle of Fig. 8, Kuo Zhan pattern etc. all suits laterally.
In addition, as shown in Figure 5, the cross sectional shape of wire resist-coating film 76, size (particularly thickness W and height H etc.) also can be selected arbitrarily within the specific limits.Dotted line J among the figure represents the goods zone on the substrate G and the boundary in non-goods zone.Usually because the circumferential position of dispensing area RE is set in the outside of boundary J, so wire resist-coating film 76 also can be formed on the outside of boundary J.
As mentioned above, in wire coater unit (LCT) 44, be formed on the wire resist-coating film 76 on the substrate G, and then in heating unit (HP) 50, carry out heat treated, make its drying (step S7).This heat drying is in order to make residual solvent evaporation in the wire resist-coating film 76, improves the adaptation with substrate G, but there is no need drying as prebake (step S11), and can be half-dried.
Fig. 6 represents that the major part in the planar coater unit (ACT) 40 constitutes.This planar coater unit (ACT) 40 has: for keeping the objective table 80 of the horizontal mounting of substrate G; With above the substrate G for mounting on this objective table 80 (correctly being dispensing area RE), utilize elongated resist nozzle (hereinafter referred to as " long nozzle ") 82, use method without spin, the coating handling part 84 of planar painting erosion resistant agent liquid.
Coating handling part 84 has: the resist liquid feed mechanism 86 that has long nozzle 82; With the nozzle moving mechanism 88 that when coating is handled, long nozzle 82 is moved horizontally above objective table 80 along directions X.In resist liquid feed mechanism 86, long nozzle 82 has the length with the end to end that covers objective table 80 upper substrate G, the slit-shaped ejiction opening that extends in the Y direction, and be connected with the resist liquid supply pipe 90 of resist liquid supply source (not shown).Nozzle moving mechanism 88 has: support anti-" コ " font of long nozzle 82 levels or the nozzle support body 92 of door shape; With make this nozzle support body 92 on directions X, the craspedodrome drive division 94 that twocouese keep straight on to move.This craspedodrome drive division 94 can be made of for example tape guide straight line electric machine mechanism or ball screw mechanism.In addition, be used to change or the tape guide elevating mechanism 96 of regulating the height and position of long nozzle 82 is arranged on the connecting portion 98 that for example connects nozzle support body 92 and long nozzle 82.Because the height and position of long nozzle 82 can be regulated or change to elevating mechanism 96, so can regulate or change the lower end of long nozzle 82 arbitrarily or the distance interval between (processed face), the i.e. size in gap above the substrate G on ejiction opening and the objective table 80.
Long nozzle 82 is made of the metal of resistant tarnishings such as for example stainless steel and excellent processability, towards the slit-shaped ejiction opening of lower end, has the taper surface of taper.The total length of the slit-shaped ejiction opening of long nozzle 82 width intermembranous with the wire resist-coating of the width size of substrate G or aftermentioned subtend (distance at interval) is corresponding.Therefore the two ends of the ejiction opening of long nozzle 82, the left and right sides of the dispensing area RE on the substrate G roughly directly over move along directions X.
In this planar coater unit (ACT) 40, mounting substrate G on the objective table 80, under the control of controller (not shown), resist liquid feed mechanism 86 and nozzle moving mechanism 88 etc. are operated with the order of regulation, thus, as shown in Figure 8, the dispensing area RE on substrate G, be in the rectangular frame or zone of wire resist-coating film 76, can make planar resist-coating film 100 form desirable thickness with dyke one-tenth.
In more detail, as shown in Figure 6, on one side long nozzle 82 is moved with certain speed by nozzle moving mechanism 88, make that the height with regulation cuts or scanning along directions X is vertical above objective table 80, on one side in resist liquid feed mechanism 86, supply to the dispensing area RE of the substrate G on the objective table 80 with the banded discharging jet of expanding along the Y direction from the resist liquid of the slit-shaped ejiction opening ejection of long nozzle 82.By the coating scanning of this long nozzle 82, as shown in Figure 7, on substrate G,, form the planar coated film 100 of resist liquid to the other end from an end of substrate as catching up with in long nozzle 82 back.At this moment, in the process of planar resist-coating film 100 (outside particularly) expansion outside substrate G, contact with wire coated film 76 and even integrated, the marginal position of planar resist-coating film 100 is by wire resist-coating film 76 defineds, and thickness is also controlled simultaneously.
Promptly at coating starting position A, because dwindle the gap of long nozzle 82 and substrate G, carry out resist liquid preposition ejection or liquid, so from the resist liquid of the slit-shaped ejiction opening of long nozzle 82 ejection (particularly outside the long hand direction of nozzle) hyper expanded laterally on substrate G easily.But under this embodiment, the edge part of dispensing area RE has formed wire resist-coating film 76.Thus, as shown in Figure 9,, can't expand (embankment effect) thus laterally because the outer rim of planar resist-coating film 100 is limited by the dyke of wire resist-coating film 76, as imaginary line 100 ' shown in attenuate (depression) of thickness hindered.Particularly, shown in part enlarged drawing LA in the circle among Fig. 8,, the bight of wire resist-coating film 76 is become in the circular pattern, can further improve above-mentioned embankment effect and even prevent the effect that thickness caves in coating starting position A side.
On the other hand, in the coating scanning, as shown in Figure 7, form the state of meniscus in its bottom, back side with long nozzle 82, above substrate G, move along directions X, because the resist liquid that has just sprayed on substrate G is by long nozzle 82 towings, so the power that is subjected to assembling to the inside at both ends, the left and right sides resist liquid that is coated with pars intermedia B.Under this embodiment, because the outer edge of dispensing area RE has formed wire coated film 76, as shown in figure 10, rest on the circumferential position of regulation because of the adhesion gravitation of the outer edge of planar resist-coating film 100 and wire resist-coating film 76, assemble to the inside, prevented imaginary line 100 ' shown in the protuberance of thickness.
In addition, at the coating termination C of portion, though just be sprayed onto the bigger inside power of ratio coating pars intermedia B that resist liquid on the substrate G is subjected to long nozzle 82 sides, but still owing to rest on the circumferential position of regulation with adhesion (wetting) gravitation of wire resist-coating film 76, do not assemble to the inside, prevented the protuberance of thickness.Particularly shown in part enlarged drawing LC in the circle among Fig. 8, in coating final position C side, in the pattern that the bight 76C formation acute angle of wire resist-coating film 76 is expanded laterally, when finishing, coating will transfer to its zone broadening part from the excessive resist liquid of long nozzle 82 ejections, because wetting adhesion with wire resist-coating film 76, it is kept better, therefore can improve the effect that prevents above-mentioned thickness protuberance more.
And, this embodiment, before coating scanning beginning or during beginning, on coating starting position A, be used between long nozzle 82 and substrate G gap filling resist liquid liquid can repeatability carry out well.Promptly as shown in figure 12, because near coating starting position A or its directions X outside, formed wire resist-coating film 76, so by the slit-shaped ejiction opening 82a of long nozzle 82 ejection liquid with resist liquid R, on the wire resist-coating film 76 from above overlap, adhesion and even integrated, to the long hand direction of nozzle (Y direction) expansion, can be in the gap complete filling resist liquid R, making it does not have the space.
Like this, by scanning will be long beginning coating under the state that fills up fully with resist liquid of nozzle 82 and the gap of substrate G, as shown in Figure 7, (wet line: wet line) WL remains on the same horizontal line top line of the meniscus that forms in the lower backside of long nozzle 82, can form the resist-coating film 100 that is not coated with irregular tabular surface on substrate G.
Under this embodiment, various states, condition for resist technology, do not need to change or exchange the hardware of long nozzle 82, suitably select the profile (coating position, height H, width W etc.) of wire resist-coating film 76, can realize the film thickness monitoring of above-mentioned homogenising easily.
For example, do not change coating conditions such as sweep velocity, resist characteristic, with the thickness setting value of planar resist-coating film 100 by T aChange into for example about 2 times T b, in coating scanning pars intermedia B, compare with the power of assembling to the inside of long nozzle 82, because bigger with the wetting quantitative power of expanding laterally of resist liquid of substrate, the thickness at both ends, the left and right sides not only swells, and outwards hang down easily (depression).
At this moment, as shown in figure 11,, can possess prevention on wire resist-coating film 76, the embankment effect function of the outer edge of planar resist-coating film 100 expansion because assemble to substrate inboard (goods area side) the coating position of wire resist-coating film 76.Thus, can eliminate as imaginary line (dot-and-dash line) 100 ' shown in the thickness of planar resist-coating film 100 hang down or cave in, keep the homogenising of thickness.
As mentioned above, according to this embodiment, for the resist-coating of mode without spin, because the periphery of the dispensing area RE that sets on substrate G has formed wire resist-coating film 76, in regular coating was without spin handled, the film thickness monitoring that the makes planar resist-coating film 100 particularly uniform film thickness chemical control system of circumference was carried out easily.And, when beginning coating or before the work that surges, to fill resist liquid well be possible to repeatability in the gap between long nozzle 82 and substrate G, thus, the irregular generation of coating of strip can be in coating scanning, prevented, the resist film of tabular surface high-quality can be obtained.
In the above-described embodiment, constitute and utilize special-purpose wire coater unit (LCT) 44, carry out on substrate G, forming the processing of wire resist-coating film 76.But, also can be to carry out the device of wire coating processing and to be located in the planar coater unit (ACT) 40 or the formation of combination.
For example shown in Figure 14, in planar coater unit (ACT) 40, can be on the nozzle support body 92 of nozzle moving mechanism 88, by with above-mentioned wire coater unit (LCT) 41 in wire coating treating apparatus (Fig. 3) in X guide rail 70, the stand 74 of same configuration, carry ink jet type nozzle 64.At this moment, make by nozzle moving mechanism 88 long nozzle 82 above objective table 80 along prescribed direction (directions X) in the mobile coating scanning, ink jet type nozzle 64 can be in the anterior position of long nozzle 82, above objective table 80, move, can before the planar coating scanning of long nozzle 82, carry out the wire coating scanning of ink jet type nozzle 64 earlier.
Like this, when wire coating treating apparatus was installed in planar coater unit (ACT) 40, preferably installation was used for the dry equipment that just has been formed on the wire resist-coating film 76 on the substrate G in unit (ACT) 40.For example, as shown in figure 16, can the equipment that warm-air drier 102 is scanned be installed in the back of ink jet type nozzle 64.This warm-air drier 102 has the heat generating part 104 that for example is made of resistance heating equipment, introduces air or nitrogen by gas line 106, blows desiccant warm braw by the wire resist-coating film 76 of warm-air drier 102 on substrate G.Perhaps,, can after the wire coating, not do special dried yet, directly carry out planar coating and handle if the action effect of wire resist-coating film 76 is reduced to a certain degree.
In the above-mentioned embodiment, with around the substrate G mode in one week, all form wire resist-coating film 76 in the outer rim of dispensing area RE.But also can be only in the part of dispensing area RE periphery, as only near the coating starting position or, form local wire resist-coating film 76 only at coating scanning pars intermedia or only at the coating terminal part or only in the bight.In addition, as a variation of the coated pattern shown in the enlarged drawing LC of Fig. 8, also can vacate formation with gap not in conjunction with the wire resist-coating film 76 in bight, this formation also can obtain effect same as described above.
The coating of above-mentioned embodiment scanning is to adopt fixing base G on objective table 80, the mode that ink jet type nozzle 64 or long nozzle 82 are moved along prescribed direction or track.But, fixed nozzle 64,82, the mode that substrate G is moved on prescribed direction, or the mode that nozzle 64,82 and substrate G are moved simultaneously is also passable.In coating scanning, the come-up conveyance formula that substrate G is floated over move in the air is also passable.
In the above-described embodiment, coating beginning during liquid, by long nozzle 82 to the slit of substrate G in the micro-resist liquid of ejection, but, also can adopt primary coat (priming) facture carrying out liquid as additive method.According to the primary coat facture, primary coat handling part by near setting objective table 80, near the primary coat resist liquid ejiction opening of long nozzle 82, long nozzle 82 is moved to objective table 80 tops, reduce to and substrate G between form the height of the close gap of regulation, make the coating starting position of the liquid film of the accompanying resist liquid in the lower end of substrate G near substrate G.According to the present invention because the coating starting position near, formed wire resist-coating film, utilize the primary coat facture liquid also can reappearance carry out well.
From the resist liquid of long nozzle 82 ejections in beginning with before wire resist-coating film 76 contacts, preferably make long nozzle 82 static or stop to move.In case resist contacts with wire resist-coating film 76, even long nozzle 82 is moved, also can be by wire resist-coating film 76 absorption, can to and wire resist-coating film 76 between resist seamlessly is provided.The ejection resist was preferably tried to achieve by trial test etc. to time that long nozzle 82 begins to move.
In addition, for making long nozzle 82 ejection resists and contacting with wire resist-coating film 76 as early as possible, can spray resist than ormal weight in the incipient stage, the resist of ejection is with after wire resist-coating film 76 contacts with Duoing, and the resist of surplus can be drawn in the long nozzle 82.The time that begins to attract from being ejected into of resist preferably also obtains by trial test.
In addition, omit among the figure,, can constitute a plurality of (as the 4) nozzle 64 on each limit, form the device of wire resist-coating film 76 along each limit of substrate simultaneously with difference counterpart substrate about wire coater unit (LCT) 44.Like this, can the enough shorter time on substrate, form desirable wire resist-coating film 76.
Wire resist film coating of the present invention also can have various deformation with the formation that nozzle and planar resist film are coated with nozzle.For example, can use the solenoid valve ON/OFF formula nozzle that has the minute aperture ejiction opening to replace ink jet type nozzle 64.The ejiction opening of long in addition nozzle 82 also is not limited only to slit-type, also a plurality of minute aperture assortments can be become row.
In addition, in the wire painting process, be that arbitrary graphic pattern beyond the wire also is fine with the warpage of wire resist-coating film 76.Particularly in the planar coating of method without spin, as the coating terminal part (particularly left and right sides corner portion) of above-mentioned resist liquid film on substrate G, (on the direction vertical with the coating direction of scanning, substrate center's side) assembles a lot easily to the inside.The present invention is (particularly left and right sides corner portion) near the terminal of the planar resist-coating film on the substrate G, and in advance (for example with same the implementing in the painting process earlier of above-mentioned wire painting process) the resist-coating film of implementing earlier that will be used to expand the profile of the profile of planar resist-coating film, particularly left and right sides corner portion becomes desirable pattern.
