Meanwhile after laser beam is matched to best topological pattern distribution by the method according to default flute profile information, also Need to according to the topological pattern distribution to the laser beam that laser emit be split formation multiple laser beamlet after processing, Then Shape correction, focusing are carried out respectively to the laser beamlets after beam splitting, and then being formed, there is the topology pattern to be distributed Laser facula, finally by the relative position realization changed between Low-K layer of the laser facula and wafer upper surface to wafer Upper surface Low-K layers carries out laser processing effect and forms groove on Low-K layers of wafer upper surface, and then avoiding Low-K Under the premise of the peeling of layer in process, reach efficiently removal upper surface Low-K layers of effect of wafer, and improve the groove The uniformity of flatness and separation wafer, and then improve the performance of wafer.
Optionally, as shown in Fig. 2, the default flute profile information includes bathtub construction, the depth of the width of flute profile and flute profile In one or any combination.
Optionally, the basis presets the topological pattern distribution that flute profile information matches laser beam need to have, including:

Wherein, the heat affected area information further ensures as the coefficient in formula by having in the algorithm It is more accurate that the laser beam processing of the size distribution of the laser facula is formed by bathtub construction.
Meanwhile default flute profile information is corresponding with the topological pattern distribution in the method, correspondence is stored in In controller.For example, as shown in figure 3, in order to be two "U" type grooves in Low-K layers of the wafer upper surface bathtub construction etched It is respectively distributed to Cutting Road both sides, wherein laser beam is divided into two and is respectively acting on the marginal position in predetermined cuts road The Low-K materials in semiconductor substrate are removed with center, and retain the region between them, can then pass through machinery Processing method or laser processing method remove remaining Low-K materials.The Low-K materials at edge can be removed using the bathtub construction Expect and limit removal subject area, when in subsequent processing remove Low-K materials when, can prevent remove subject area it Low-K materials in outer region are removed, and edge accurately and is clearly handled, and is improved while improving processing efficiency Manufacturing characteristics, moreover it is possible to effectively avoid Low-K layers of peeling in process.Therefore, it can be used in the present embodiment such as figure three Topological pattern distribution shown in left side, forms after the laser beam processing through being distributed with the topology pattern such as A-A sectional views institute The bathtub construction shown, wherein the distribution of topology group is made of two elliptical shaped laser spots for being respectively distributed to Cutting Road both sides, Focusing element array wherein used is circular flat spot shaping element, and focusing element array forms for plano-convex cylindrical lens array. The two beam directional light shapings at predetermined cuts line both ends can be will act at by focusing element array becomes stripe shape, the shape Compared with circular light spot, etch areas increases.To increase processing efficiency.Pass through the adjusting of the position to lens, Ke Yishi Now the width to linearity configuration relative to predetermined cuts road vertical direction is changed, to obtain the processing effect of different groove widths Fruit.And then be conducive to remove remaining Low-K materials by mechanical processing method or laser processing method in next step.By this Method removes the Low-K materials at edge and limits removal subject area, when removing Low-K materials in subsequent processing, The Low-K materials in the region except subject area can be prevented from removing to be removed.Or using topology shown in three right side of figure Pattern is distributed, and the bathtub construction as shown in A-A sectional views is formed after the laser beam processing through being distributed with the topology pattern, In, the distribution of topology group is made of two that are respectively distributed to Cutting Road both sides round laser faculas, passes through beam splitting element or phase A branch of incident laser beam is divided into two bundles laser beamlets by control type liquid crystal on silicon, using focusing element array by two beam laser Beamlet is respectively acting on scribing runway both sides.
As shown in Figure 4 and Figure 5, it is respectively in order to which the bathtub construction etched on the Low-K layers of wafer upper surface is both sides " Qian " type groove, centre are "U" type groove, then need laser beam one dividing into three and be respectively acting on the side in predetermined cuts road Edge position and center remove the Low-K layers in semiconductor substrate, and retain the region between them, can then pass through Mechanical processing method or laser processing method remove remaining Low-K materials.The bathtub construction can remove the Low-K materials at edge Expect and limit removal subject area, while the hot spot of a branch of smaller shape can ensure predetermined cuts road edge Low-K materials In the case of material removal, certain etching effect is realized to intermediate a part of region.It is therefore possible in subsequent blade fluting Greatly reduce resistance of the residue Low-K materials to blade, and the raceway groove of the 0 order diffraction photoengraving positioned at bosom in processing The movement locus that will can effectively hold onto blade, to improve blade running precision.Twice positioned at predetermined cuts road edge The accurate and clear processing at Cutting Road edge may be implemented in rectangular flat-top laser beamlets, is improved while improving processing efficiency Manufacturing characteristics, moreover it is possible to effectively avoid Low-K layers of peeling in process.Therefore, the topological diagram as shown in the left sides Fig. 4 Case is distributed, and the bathtub construction as shown in B-B sectional views is formed after the laser beam processing through being distributed with the topology pattern.This reality It is circular flat spot shaping element to apply example and can will act at the shaping element that intermediate laser beamlet uses, and coordinates plano-convex column Face mirror realizes the linearization process to laser facula;Acting on shaping element used in the laser beamlets on predetermined cuts road both sides is Square flat-top shaping element, and coordinate convex lens that can realize rectangular laser processing effect on the both sides in predetermined cuts road. The flat-top hot spot of intermediate ellipse can improve work to greatest extent while realization is removed Low-K materials Efficiency.It is the width that can determine linear flat-top hot spot according to spot length and plano-convex cylindrical lens focal length, to realize to predetermined Cutting Road edge accurately and is clearly handled, and improves manufacturing characteristics while improving processing efficiency, moreover it is possible to effectively keep away Exempt from the peelings of Low-K in process.
Even if when removing the Low-K materials still retained after the Low-K materials for removing edge, due to from Low-K materials Material is applied to the physical resistance of blade, it is impossible to ensure the predetermined movement speed of blade.Therefore, in another embodiment of the present invention In, after using the sub- laser of two segmentations to the Low-K materials removal on the predetermined cuts road edges T both sides, while introducing diffraction 0 grade of laser of light splitting.The energy intensity of the sub- laser of three beams is close consistent, therefore can ensure predetermined cuts road edge Low-K In the case that material removes, the effect for being equal to etching edge is realized to intermediate a part of region.It is therefore possible to subsequent Greatly reduce resistance of the residue Low-K materials to blade in blade slot treatment, and positioned at the 0 order diffraction photoetching in bosom The raceway groove of erosion will can effectively hold onto the movement locus of blade, to improve blade running precision.
Alternatively, topological pattern distribution shown on the right side of Fig. 4, after the laser beam processing through being distributed with the topology pattern Form the bathtub construction as shown in B-B sectional views.The shaping element that intermediate laser beamlets use is acted in the present embodiment For circular flat spot shaping element, and planoconvex spotlight is coordinated to realize the focusing to laser facula.
Further, topological pattern as shown in Figure 5 distribution, after the laser beam processing through being distributed with the topology pattern Form the bathtub construction as shown in C-C sectional views.When it is "U" type groove that " Qian " type groove of both sides, which is more than centre, the side Method can be used intermediate laser beamlet spot size be less than Cutting Road both sides laser beamlets spot size size.Three beams The hot spot of laser beamlets realizes the focusing on wafer with the concentrating element group of three planoconvex spotlight compositions.It is long according to hot spot Degree and planoconvex spotlight focal length are that can determine the width of linear flat-top hot spot, to realizing to predetermined cuts road edge by accurate and It clearly handles, manufacturing characteristics is improved while improving processing efficiency, moreover it is possible to effectively avoid Low-K in process Peeling.Smaller intermediate beam be effectively guaranteed Cutting Road both sides are efficiently removed while, can be with centering Between a part of region certain etching effect such as realize.It is surplus it is therefore possible to greatly reduce in subsequent blade slot treatment Remaining Low-K materials are to the resistance of blade, and the raceway groove for penetrating photoengraving positioned at bosom will can effectively hold onto blade Movement locus, to improve blade running precision.
As shown in fig. 6, laser beam in order to Low-K layers of the wafer upper surface bathtub construction etched be global approximation " Qian " type groove, even and if when remove remove edge Low-K materials after still retain Low-K materials when, due to from Low-K materials are applied to the physical resistance of blade, it is impossible to ensure the predetermined movement speed of blade.Therefore, in the present embodiment After the laser beamlets divided using two are to the Low-K materials removal on predetermined cuts road edge both sides, while introducing diffraction point 0 grade of laser of light.The energy intensity of three beams of laser beamlet is close consistent, therefore can ensure predetermined cuts road edge Low- In the case that K materials remove, the effect for being equal to etching edge is realized to intermediate a part of region.Final acquisition one is similar to " Qian " the type bathtub construction all etched.Since groove top differs smaller with slot bottom, when then passing through mechanical processing method or laser When processing method removes remaining Low-K materials, good stress release can effectively avoid blade from producing chip crystals Raw stress damage, very high product reliability.Therefore, the topological pattern distribution as shown in the upper left sides Fig. 6, through having the topological diagram The bathtub construction as shown in D-D sectional views is formed after the laser beam processing of case distribution.The shaping element used in the present embodiment Array is the rectangular shaping elements of 3*3 customized, and the rectangular flat-top hot spot processing of array for coordinating convex lens that 3*3 may be implemented is imitated Fruit.Rectangular flat-top hot spot can effectively control edge definition, therefore compared to circular light spot, can obtain significantly more efficient Machining accuracy, and it is not damaged to wafer effective coverage.Rectangular edge can also preferably control the diffusion of fuel factor, will process Slot controls within predetermined cuts road.Rectangular array processing effect can preferably cover large-scale machining area, that is, increase The processing efficiency added.Noenergy region among different rectangular sub-light spots also can be certain alleviation fuel factor influence.Pass through After the mode of this multiple beam overlapping, it is ensured that Energy distribution is relatively uniform at the top of hot spot cluster, therefore can effectively reduce The Low-K material ablation phenomenons that fuel factor generates.Due to the overlapping of multiple beam so that the beam energy distribution of scribing is more equal Even, trench bottom is more flat, and heat affected area homogeneity is higher, and corresponding chipping, micropore, burr phenomenon can also reduce therewith.
Simultaneously as the uneven thickness of Low-K layers of wafer upper surface, therefore only with the topological pattern of such as upper left sides Fig. 6 Distribution is laser machined, and is unable to reach the expected bathtub construction for being similar to " Qian " type, therefore according to Low-K layers of wafer upper surface Thickness distribution, and then adjust the topological pattern distribution.For example, when thicker than both sides in the middle part of Cutting Road, then use as Fig. 6 is right Topological pattern distribution shown in upside, forms after the laser beam processing through being distributed with the topology pattern such as D-D sectional views institute The bathtub construction shown.Wherein, shaping element array is using the rectangular shaping element of " work " type customized, and coordinates convex lens can be with Realize the rectangular flat-top hot spot processing effect of " work " type array.Effectively to control the diffusion in array hot spot heat-affected zone, will swash What light customized is beamed into the combination of " work " type array hot spot.So that the processing fuel factor at predetermined cuts road edge is more to processing Diffusion, that is, remain processing efficiency, and be effectively controlled damage of product situation among slot.Retain in the intermediate region of Cutting Road The processing effect of a branch of sub-light spot such as can realize intermediate a part of region at certain etching effect.It is therefore possible to Greatly reduce resistance of the residue Low-K materials to blade in subsequent blade slot treatment, and light is penetrated positioned at bosom The raceway groove of etching will can effectively hold onto the movement locus of blade, to improve blade running precision.Last one of lasertron The combination of light beam, moreover it is possible to effectively the etching flute profile of front be repaired, the residue of slot bottom is removed.
When thinner than both sides in the middle part of Cutting Road, then using the topological pattern distribution as shown in downside in Fig. 6, through having this to open up The bathtub construction as shown in D-D sectional views is formed after flutterring the laser beam processing of pattern distribution.Wherein, determine when shaping element array The rectangular shaping element of " H " type of inhibition and generation, and coordinate convex lens that the rectangular flat-top hot spot processing effect of " H " type array may be implemented.By Larger heat affecting effect is generated to Low-K materials in laser, and the effect of expanding with heat and contract with cold of material may be caused to make processing essence Degree reduces, and the diffusion of fuel factor is also possible to the effective coverage of damage wafer, to reduce product qualification rate.Laser is determined Inhibition and generation is beamed into the combination of " H " type array hot spot.So that the processing fuel factor at predetermined cuts road edge is more into processing groove Between spread, that is, remain processing efficiency, and be effectively controlled damage of product situation.Also, it is protected in the intermediate region of Cutting Road The processing effect of a branch of sub-light spot has been stayed, it can be to certain etching effects such as intermediate a part of region realizations.It is therefore possible to Greatly reduce resistance of the residue Low-K materials to blade, and penetrating positioned at bosom in subsequent blade slot treatment The raceway groove of photoengraving will can effectively hold onto the movement locus of blade, to improve blade running precision.
Therefore, the method further includes:
Obtain the thickness information of upper surface Low-K layers of wafer;
The topological pattern distribution that need to be had according to thickness information and default flute profile information matches laser beam.
As shown in fig. 7, in order to which the bathtub construction etched on the Low-K layers of wafer upper surface is the three uniform U-typeds of row Groove, therefore, the topological pattern distribution as shown in the upsides Fig. 7, shape after the laser beam processing through being distributed with the topology pattern At the bathtub construction as shown in E-E sectional views.What the three beams of laser hot spot that the present embodiment uses was formed with three planoconvex spotlights Focusing element array realizes the focusing on wafer.Also, it can determine line also according to spot length and planoconvex spotlight focal length The width of shape flat-top hot spot accurately and is clearly handled predetermined cuts road edge to realize.
Meanwhile in order to Low-K layers of the wafer upper surface bathtub construction etched be global approximation " Qian " type groove;Cause This, the present embodiment can also be by using female laser beam comprising entire Cutting Road to the Low-K materials in entire predetermined cuts road Material is removed, and is then cut to the remaining material in Cutting Road both sides using the small-sized laser beamlets of twice.It can not only The bathtub construction close to " Qian " type is obtained, remaining Low- is removed when then passing through mechanical processing method or laser processing method When K materials, good stress release can effectively avoid the stress damage that blade generates chip crystals, and very high product can By property.And the subsequent small-sized Gaussian beam of twice can also clean up after first of female light beam is cut and condense upon both sides in slot again Surplus materials, to realize that efficient flute profile obtains result.
Alternatively, topological pattern distribution shown on the upside of Fig. 8, after the laser beam processing through being distributed with the topology pattern Form the bathtub construction as shown in F-F sectional views.Wherein, two beam laser are divided into using laser beam.It is a branch of before wherein to swash Photon beam energy is far longer than subsequent laser beamlets.Preceding a branch of laser beamlets are used for laser slotting, then a branch of to swash Photon light beam occupies the 20-30% of total laser, is used to the clast of removal slot bottom, optimizes bathtub construction.Such beam splitting effect Further improvement can be realized to flute profile, while ensureing processing efficiency to greatest extent to avoid subsequent machinery When cutting, in fact it could happen that remaining Low-K materials be adhered on blade, and be splashed to the effective coverage of wafer, affect production Product yield.
Again alternatively, topological pattern shown in upside is distributed as shown in Figure 9, the laser beam through being distributed with the topology pattern The bathtub construction as shown in G-G sectional views is formed after processing.Wherein, it is whole to be square flat-top for shaping element used in laser beamlets Shape element, and coordinate planoconvex spotlight that can realize rectangular laser processing effect on the both sides in predetermined cuts road.Compare and circle Hot spot can obtain significantly more efficient machining accuracy, and not be damaged to wafer effective coverage.It rectangular edge can also be better The diffusion for controlling fuel factor, by processing groove control within predetermined cuts road.And subsequent circular flat hot spot be equally then for After removal laser processing, remains in the Low-K materials of slot bottom, advanced optimize bathtub construction.
Optionally, the method further includes:
