Detailed Description
As mentioned in the background, the edge-trimmed portion is considerable when stacking multiple layers of wafers, which results in the loss of yield.
Research shows that when stacking multiple layers of wafers, thinning operation is performed on the corresponding wafer after each wafer stacking, and after the thinning operation, an edge trimming process is correspondingly required, so that when stacking multiple layers of wafers, multiple times of thinning operation and multiple times of trimming process are required, and therefore, when stacking multiple layers of wafers, the edge trimming portion is considerable, and yield loss is caused. In addition, since defects such as cracks may be diffused toward the center of the wafer each time thinning is performed, the width to be thinned at the next edge thinning is wider, the amount of edge thinning of the stacked wafer is further increased, and yield loss is further caused. And the process is reduced for many times, so that the manufacturing efficiency is reduced.
To this end, the present invention provides a stack bonded wafer processing tool and a processing method, the processing tool comprising: the glue injection unit is used for injecting glue to the edge of the stacked bonded wafer, and the reducing unit is used for simultaneously cutting and removing the edge of the stacked bonded wafer with partial width and the glue injected to the edge, so that when the reducing is performed, the edge of the stacked bonded wafer is filled with the glue, the edge of the stacked bonded wafer is not suspended or has a gap, the glue can stabilize the cutting process, the defects such as cracks and the like generated at the edge of the stacked bonded wafer in the cutting process are effectively reduced or prevented, and the defects such as cracks and the like can be prevented from being diffused to the center of the stacked bonded wafer. And when the injected colloid is also used for preventing cracks from being generated when thinning the wafer at the top in the stacked bonded wafer, the injected colloid is removed without an additional process after thinning, the edges of the stacked bonded wafer with partial width and the colloid injected at the edges can be simultaneously cut and removed through the cutting unit, the processing efficiency is improved, and the problems of colloid residue and cross contamination caused by the colloid can be prevented. Particularly, when the stacked bonded wafer processing machine station processes the multilayer stacked bonded wafer, after glue injection and grinding are carried out on two bonded wafers each time, glue removal and cutting (cutting) steps are not needed, after the multilayer stacked bonded wafer is formed, the edges of the partial width of the stacked bonded wafer and glue injected into the edges can be cut and removed simultaneously by carrying out a further cutting process through the cutting unit, so that excessive wafer edge cutting caused by multiple times of cutting in the manufacturing process of the multilayer stacked wafer can be avoided, and further excessive yield loss is avoided.

The apparatus of claim 6, further comprising a polishing unit configured to thin the stacked bonded wafer with the edge injected with the glue, wherein the trimming unit is configured to cut and remove the edge of the thinned stacked bonded wafer with a partial width and the glue injected into the edge at the same time.
9. The apparatus of claim 8, wherein the glue injection unit injects a first glue on an edge of the first bonded wafer after the first and second wafers are bonded to form the first stacked bonded wafer, and the polishing unit thins the second wafer on the first bonded wafer with the first glue injected on the edge; after the glue injection unit bonds a third wafer on the thinned second wafer to form a second stacked bonded wafer, injecting a second glue body into the third wafer in the second stacked bonded wafer and the edge of the thinned second wafer; the grinding unit thins a third wafer on the second bonded wafer with the edge injected with the second colloid; and the reducing unit simultaneously cuts and removes the edge of the thinned second stacked bonded wafer with partial width and the first colloid and the second colloid injected into the edge.
10. The stack bonded wafer processing tool of claim 1 or 8, further comprising: and the conveying unit is used for conveying the stacked bonded wafers among the units.
