Detailed Description
In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and advantages to be solved by the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the following detailed description will be given with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. It is to be understood that the embodiments described are only a few embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the described embodiments of the invention, are within the scope of the invention.
At present, in the silicon wafer industry, the change of temperature and humidity has very important influence on the quality of the silicon wafer.
Wherein, the influence of the humidity on the silicon wafer is as follows: when the humidity is higher, the water molecule content in the air is higher, and dust particles in the air are easily adsorbed on the water molecules in the air and are attached to the surface of the silicon wafer. Meanwhile, the higher content of water molecules in the air is not beneficial to removing original tiny particles on the surface of the silicon wafer. When the humidity is lower, the electrostatic action is strengthened, so that the tiny particles in the air are easy to be adsorbed on the surface of the silicon wafer, and the performance of the silicon wafer can be seriously influenced by the existence of the tiny particles on the surface of the silicon wafer. The effect of humidity on the wafer is very important.
The effect of temperature on the silicon wafer is: the change of temperature can influence the change of silicon chip surface flatness and the change of the inside humidity of storage box (FOSB), and when the temperature was higher, the storage box took place to warp easily, has the fish tail when getting the silicon chip, and high temperature can lead to the storage box to separate out the pollutant, and surface flatness also can seriously influence the performance of silicon chip in addition, and the humidity change that causes because of the temperature also can seriously influence the performance of silicon chip, so the temperature is very important to the influence of silicon chip.
At present, FOSB in the silicon wafer industry has no temperature and humidity sensor or similar devices in a box. Therefore, the temperature and humidity changes in the FOSB cannot be monitored in real time during the storage and transportation of the silicon wafers. The detection equipment cannot obtain sufficient data to analyze the change of the quality of the silicon wafer.
The embodiment of the invention provides a semiconductor device storage box, which can detect the temperature and humidity in the storage box through a temperature and humidity sensor in the transportation process and the storage process of a silicon wafer, record data and analyze the influence of the temperature and the humidity on the quality of the silicon wafer by utilizing the recorded data.
An embodiment of the present invention provides a semiconductor device storage box, including a box body and a cover body matched with the box body, as shown in fig. 1 to 4, the semiconductor device storage box further includes:
a temperature and humidity sensor 3 arranged on one side of the cover body 1 facing the box body;
a wireless communication unit 10 connected to the temperature and humidity sensor 1;
and a power supply unit (not shown) connected to the temperature/humidity sensor 3 and the wireless communication unit 10.
In this embodiment, set up temperature and humidity sensor on the lid of semiconductor device storage box, the humiture change in can the real-time supervision semiconductor device storage box and automatic record data, transmit to data receiving equipment through wireless communication unit, obtain digital record, can draw the curve and combine semiconductor device surface particle detection equipment to analyze according to humiture change data like this, the analysis obtains the influence of temperature and humidity to the semiconductor device quality. Wherein, temperature and humidity sensor does not produce any granule itself, consequently can not cause the pollution to the semiconductor device of semiconductor device storage box the inside, and temperature and humidity sensor volume is less, and weight is less, can zonulae occludens with the lid of semiconductor device storage box, can not cause the influence to the transportation of semiconductor device storage.
Before utilizing semiconductor device storage box storage semiconductor device, need use hot water (about 60 degrees) to wash semiconductor device storage box, after wasing, the humidity of semiconductor storage box is about 20 degrees, the temperature is about 40 degrees, the humidity and the temperature that need a period of time semiconductor storage box can reach the standard of depositing semiconductor device, current storage box does not set up temperature humidity transducer, rely on the experience of operator and engineer to judge the opportunity of depositing semiconductor device completely, if judge the mistake, semiconductor device's performance will be influenced. In the embodiment, the temperature and humidity sensor is arranged in the semiconductor storage box, so that accurate temperature data and humidity data of the semiconductor storage box can be obtained, and the semiconductor device can be stored in the semiconductor device storage box at a proper time.
Further, as shown in fig. 2, the semiconductor device storage case may further include:
and the prompting unit 4 is used for prompting when the temperature data and the humidity data collected by the temperature and humidity sensor reach set values, and when the temperature data and the humidity data collected by the temperature and humidity sensor reach the set values, the humidity and the temperature of the semiconductor storage box reach the standards for storing semiconductor devices.
Specifically, the prompting unit 4 may employ an indicator light, such as a red indicator light when the humidity and temperature of the semiconductor storage case are not suitable for storing the semiconductor device, and a green indicator light when the humidity and temperature of the semiconductor storage case are suitable for storing the semiconductor device. Of course, the prompting unit is not limited to the indicator light, and other types of devices, such as a voice device, may be used to prompt the time for storing the semiconductor device by voice.
In a specific embodiment, the prompting unit 4 includes:
a first color indicator light for illuminating when said temperature data is in a first temperature range indicating that uploading of said semiconductor device storage cartridge is prohibited;
a second color indicator light for indicating the prohibition of mounting the semiconductor device storage box when the temperature data is in a second temperature range and the humidity data is in a second humidity range;
a third color indicator light for indicating inhibition of uploading and loading of the semiconductor device storage case when the temperature data is in a third temperature range and the humidity data is in a third humidity range;
a fourth color indicator light for illuminating when said temperature data is in a fourth temperature range and said humidity data is in a fourth humidity range, indicating that uploading and loading of said semiconductor device storage cassette is permitted;
wherein the first color, the second color, the third color, and the fourth color are different.
In a specific example, the first color is yellow, the second color is blue, the third color is red, and the fourth color is green. The using process of the semiconductor device storage box can be divided into three steps of uploading- > loading- > downloading, wherein uploading refers to the operation of putting the semiconductor device storage box into a loading port of the equipment, and loading refers to the operation of putting the semiconductor device into the semiconductor device storage box. The uploading process needs to ensure that the box is not deformed, so that the uploading process only has requirements on temperature; in the mounting process, the temperature and the humidity are required to reach the standard, if the temperature reaches the standard and the humidity does not reach the standard, a user needs to wait until the green light is turned on; the downloading process is not required because it is immediately followed by the mounting process. The user can be explicitly informed of the operation that can be currently performed on the semiconductor device storage case by the four color indicator lamps.
Specifically, when the acquired temperature data is higher than 24 ℃ and lower than 0 ℃, the yellow indicator light is turned on to indicate that uploading is forbidden, because the semiconductor device storage box deforms due to thermal expansion and cold contraction, the yellow indicator light cannot be stably matched with a contact point of an equipment feeding port in the uploading process, so that the uploading is unstable, and the semiconductor device is easily scratched in the subsequent process of taking and delivering the semiconductor device; when the collected temperature data is 0-24 ℃, the humidity data is more than 50% and less than 30%, the blue prompting lamp is turned on to indicate that the mounting of the semiconductor device is forbidden, because the semiconductor device is easily polluted by water mist when the humidity is too high and the semiconductor device is taken and sent, on the other hand, organic matters (such as hydrocarbon, heavy organic matters and the like) can be separated out from the semiconductor device storage box when the humidity is high and the semiconductor device is polluted, and when the humidity is too low, the semiconductor device is taken and sent to generate static electricity, so that the semiconductor device is more easily adsorbed with particles and the pollution is caused; when the collected temperature data is more than 24 ℃, less than 0 ℃, and the humidity data is more than 50% and less than 30%, the red prompt lamp is turned on to indicate that uploading and mounting are forbidden; when the collected temperature data is 30-50 ℃ and the humidity data is 0-24%, a green prompting lamp is turned on to indicate that uploading and loading are allowed.

Specifically, the distance between the center of the temperature and humidity sensor 3 and the long side of the rectangle may be 0.6a, and the distance between the center of the temperature and humidity sensor 3 and the short side of the rectangle may be 0.3 a.
