Description

Wafer loading finger of pre-vacuum lock chamber
Technical Field
The present invention relates to a semiconductor integrated circuit manufacturing apparatus, and more particularly, to a wafer loading finger (finger) of a pre-vacuum lock chamber.
Background
An AMEC DRIE machine provided by the middle micro semiconductor equipment (shanghai) limited company (AMEC) is a plasma etcher, a single device of the AMEC DRIE machine has 4 reaction chambers and 2 load lock chambers (loadlock chambers), and the design ensures higher productivity and is an important etcher machine in wafer (wafer) processing.
The pre-vacuum lock chamber is used for introducing the wafer from the atmospheric state, and then sealing and vacuumizing. Then, the wafer is conveyed into the reaction cavity to carry out the processing steps; conversely, after the wafer is processed in the reaction chamber, the wafer needs to be pulled back into the pre-vacuum lock chamber, and then the pre-vacuum lock chamber is vacuumized to transfer the wafer back to the wafer transfer box, such as a FOUP, in an atmospheric state. Therefore, the pre-vacuum lock chamber provides a transition from atmosphere to vacuum or from vacuum to atmosphere in the wafer transfer.
During wafer transfer, a wafer loading finger is used to place the wafer in the pre-vacuum lock chamber. FIG. 1 is a top view of a wafer loading finger of a conventional pre-vacuum lock chamber; the wafer loading finger of the conventional pre-vacuum lock chamber comprises a main body structure 101 made of a ceramic material, and a bearing area of a wafer is arranged between the front end part and the root part of the main body structure 101.
The wafer loading finger further comprises an installation part 102, the installation part 102 is made of ceramic materials, and the main body structure 101 is integrally formed on the installation part 102.
Two mounting holes 104 are formed in the mounting portion 102, and the mounting portion 102 is mounted in the pre-vacuum lock chamber through screws passing through the mounting holes 104.
And a plurality of wafer loading fingers are arranged in the same pre-vacuum lock chamber. The mounting holes 104 of the mounting portions 102 of each wafer loading finger are aligned and a spacer portion is provided between the mounting portions 102, and a screw hole is provided in the spacer portion and aligned with the mounting hole 104, and a screw is simultaneously passed through the mounting holes 104 and the screw hole of the spacer portion to fix each wafer loading finger in the pre-vacuum lock chamber. Typically, each of the wafer loading fingers is fixed to the bottom surface of the pre-vacuum lock chamber, i.e., each of the wafer loading fingers vertically overlaps the bottom surface of the pre-vacuum lock chamber.
In the prior art, the material of the wafer loading finger is usually ceramic, and the polished ceramic surface is directly contacted with the back surface of the wafer. As wafer processing moves to higher technology nodes, the control of defect particles (particles) by the etching process becomes more and more stringent, for example, the corresponding size of defect particles decreases from 0.16 microns to 0.06 microns. In the AMEC DRIE platform, as loadlock is a significant part of the transfer path connecting vacuum and atmosphere, finger is a component carrying wafer, and finger in the prior art is a ceramic structure directly contacting the wafer back, the structure has two disadvantages:
1. the wafer and ceramic are in direct contact and slight friction during transfer can cause particles that can cause surface defects on the wafer article.
2. Rubbing of the ceramic surface against the wafer blackens the contact surface, presents a particle hazard and is difficult to clean.

The further improvement is that the installation part is provided with two installation holes, and the installation part is installed in the pre-vacuum lock chamber through screws penetrating through the installation holes.
In a further improvement, a plurality of wafer loading fingers are mounted to the same pre-vacuum lock chamber.
In a further improvement, the mounting holes of the mounting portions of each wafer loading finger are aligned, a spacer portion is arranged between the mounting portions, a screw hole aligned with the mounting hole is also formed in the spacer portion, and a screw simultaneously penetrates through the mounting holes and the screw hole of the spacer portion to fix each wafer loading finger in the pre-vacuum lock chamber.

In a further improvement, one of the plasma etchers comprises two of the pre-vacuum lock chambers, and one of the pre-vacuum lock chambers comprises 4 of the wafer loading fingers.
In a further improvement, the wafer point contact part is made of Vespel resin.
Compared with the structure that the wafer and the finger are in large-area contact in the prior art, the wafer point contact part can reduce the contact area of the wafer and the finger, so that the number of particle defects generated by friction between the finger and the wafer is reduced or eliminated.
In addition, the material arrangement of the wafer point contact portion of the present invention can be independent of the material arrangement of the main body structure, so the material arrangement of the wafer point contact portion of the present invention can be a soft material such as Vespel resin which is softer than the ceramic material, and since the wafer point contact portion is in direct contact with the wafer and is softer, the wafer shock can be reduced, which can further reduce or eliminate the number of particle defects generated by the friction between the finger and the wafer.

In summary, the present invention can reduce or eliminate the number of particle defects caused by friction between the fingers and the wafer, improve process stability, increase process options and process recipe (recipe) windows, prolong chamber maintenance cycle and improve uptime of the device.
