Description

The cutting down device of cmp
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of cutting down device (Dresser) that is applied to cmp, particularly a kind of cutting down device that invests cmp retainer ring (Retaining Ring).
Background technology
Along with the semiconductor fabrication process live width is more and more thin, flatness for thin film deposition in the wafer fabrication process requires also more and more high, and the use of copper production technology is also increasingly extensive, cmp (Chemical Mechanical Polish, CMP) equipment becomes manufacturing step crucial day by day in the semiconductor fabrication process in recent years, and the Equipment Market demand is also grown up fast.Grow up fast in this several years markets of CMP equipment, mainly be main several advantages because the CMP PROCESS FOR TREATMENT has been compared with conventional wafer planarization mode: 1,, reach exposure and the etch effect and the yield rate of better quality because CMP grinding rear surface is more smooth; 2, better cleaning effect, reduce since before PROCESS FOR TREATMENT not exclusively to surface-sensitive degree next than the influence of high technology.Because the processing of CMP can make the more accurate aligning desired depth of photoetching irradiation area, and can overcome and produce circuit broken string or short circuit phenomenon when metal is deposited on layer with the interlayer storehouse, also therefore make number of metal can from before 2 to 3 layers raise to 6 to 9 layers.
Along with the semiconductor fabrication process technology constantly advances towards the deep layer micron, the importance of wafer planarization is also constantly challenged each tame wafer factory.Because the CMP Equipment Market is grown up fast in recent years, required also relative development rapidly such as grinding agent in the consumptive material of CMP, parts and the manufacturing process.In the accurate glossing of chemical-mechanical planarization CMP (Chemical Mechanical Planarization), its wafer when polishing is to be pressed on the polishing pad (Pad) of a slice rotation.It is made and often contain pore that polishing pad is generally Polyurethane.Polishing pad just supplies " rag " of wiping wafer.Worn wafer surface highlight is defibrination (Slurry) polishing to be coated on pad interface.Defibrination contains the suspension abrasive particle close with live width.The liquid of defibrination also contains oxidant or corrosive agent usually.Liquid can and the loose oxide of wafer surface reaction generation, the chemical reaction of Here it is CMP.Abrasive particle supports the surface that just can clash into wafer with polishing pad, and this is mechanical worn with regard to CMP's.
See also Fig. 1, it discloses the schematic diagram of existing CMP mechanical lapping structure.As shown in the figure, this CMP machine comprises platform 11, and it is provided with the polishing pad 12 of rotation, and the surface of this polishing pad 12 have self-grind slurry dispenser 13 flow down lapping liquid 14.And when carrying out wafer 15 surface grindings, this wafer 15 is fixing by wafer chuck 16, and the periphery of this wafer 15 is promptly fixing with retainer ring (RetainingRing) 17; Utilize wafer chuck 16 to exert pressure and rotate, can carry out the surface mechanical attrition of wafer relative to this polishing pad 12.Generally speaking, applied pressure and relative velocity are big more, and the worn speed of CMP is just high more.In order to make polishing fluid can be distributed in polishing pad 12 surfaces uniformly, the surface of polishing pad 12 has the even distribution that multi-form groove (about 20 μ m are dark) is beneficial to reach polishing fluid usually.But when grinding, the surface that the defibrination that broken layer mixes also can be accumulated in polishing pad 12 becomes not only firmly but also sliding (Glazing) it.Just reduced the pressure that contacts of abrasive particle after the contact area of polishing pad and wafer 15 heightens, the polishing speed of wafer will subtract greatly like this.What is more, and the surface that dirty polishing pad 12 can pollute wafer 15 increases its defective.In order to keep polishing speed and to keep wafer clean, polishing pad 12 must be with " diamond disk " (Diamond Disk) 18 finishings (Dressing or Conditioning), and CMP could continue to carry out like this.
Yet when reality is used, the zone that CMP polishing pad 12 grinding wafers are used, the finishing zone of carrying out polishing pad 12 with diamond disk 18 is not consistent.Therefore, how to research and develop a kind of trimmer of applied chemistry mechanical lapping, with the purpose that the structure of simplifying most and handling process can reach effective trimming polishing pad, this is the target of the required develop actively research of this association area at present.The inventor etc. through studying intensively, and are engaged in the many years of experience in the research field with it, propose the trimming device that the present invention invests cmp retainer ring (Retaining Ring) then, solve existing problem, promote manufacturing capacity simultaneously.
