Description

Wafer alignment method in photoetching process
Technical Field
The present invention relates to a semiconductor integrated circuit manufacturing process, and more particularly, to a wafer alignment method in a photolithography process.
Background
Integrated circuit fabrication mainly involves lithography, etching, deposition, thin film, Chemical Mechanical Polishing (CMP). Photolithography is among the most important pattern forming departments.
The pattern formation by photolithography is mainly gumming, exposure and development. Each step is important, and one step is not necessary.
The photolithography process tools are mainly a photoresist developer (Track) and an Exposure Tool (Exposure Tool).
In the photoetching process, the wafer is firstly coated with glue in a Track machine, then is exposed in an exposure machine, and then is developed in the Track machine after exposure is finished, and a photoresist pattern is formed after development.
The exposure machine mainly projects a pattern on the mask plate onto the photoresist of the wafer after the laser penetrates through the mask plate, so that the photoresist is exposed. The wafer often has multiple lithography layers with registration between the lithography layers.
In order to achieve good registration accuracy between the photolithography layers, alignment (alignment) is required to align a pattern on a reticle (reticle) with a wafer during exposure, which is mainly achieved through an alignment process. The Alignment process includes Reticle Alignment (RA), which requires the use of mask Alignment marks provided on the Reticle. Then, Coarse alignment (Coarse alignment) is performed on the wafer, and the full-field alignment mark is used. Then, in performing Fine Alignment (Fine Alignment) of the wafer, it is necessary to use a Fine Alignment mark.
The invention relates to accurate alignment of a wafer, wherein an alignment mark corresponding to the accurate alignment is provided with a grating structure, and the alignment of a fine structure is realized through diffraction of a grating, for example, the types of the grating structures corresponding to the accurate alignment mark adopted by a photoetching machine of Dutch ALSM company comprise CT-AH32, CT-AH53, CT-AH74 and CT-AH157-1, wherein a strip pattern forming a grating period is provided with a finer pattern:
as shown in FIG. 1A, it is a photograph of alignment mark CT-AH 32; the dashed box 101 corresponds to the undamaged alignment mark picture with the model of CT-AH32, and it can be seen that the strip pattern of the grating period has 2 strips and 1 interval, thus the light intensity of the 3 rd order diffracted light can be enhanced;
as shown in FIG. 1B, it is a photograph of the alignment mark with model CT-AH 53; the dashed box 102 corresponds to the undamaged photograph of the alignment mark with the model CT-AH53, and the stripe pattern of the grating period of CT-AH53 has 3 stripes and 2 spaces, so that the light intensity of the 5 th order diffracted light can be enhanced.
As shown in FIG. 1C, it is a photograph of the alignment mark with model CT-AH 74; the dotted frame 103 corresponds to an undamaged alignment mark photograph with the model CT-AH74, and the bar pattern of the grating period of CT-AH74 has 4 bars and 3 spaces, so that the light intensity of the 7 th order diffracted light can be enhanced.
When the wafer is aligned, the wafer is placed in an exposure machine, an alignment light source in the exposure machine is used for irradiating the alignment mark, then diffraction light signals of the alignment mark are collected and subjected to photoelectric conversion to form alignment signals, and alignment is carried out according to the alignment signals.
However, the alignment marks are fine in structure, and since the alignment marks are formed on the front layer patterns, the alignment marks are easily damaged after the film layer of the current photoetching layer grows, so that the collected alignment signals are distorted.
The dashed box 101A in fig. 1A corresponds to a photograph of a damaged alignment mark with the type CT-AH32, and it can be seen that there is a large defect in the alignment mark.
The dashed box 102a in fig. 1B corresponds to a photograph of a damaged alignment mark with the type CT-AH53, and it can be seen that there is a large defect in the alignment mark.
The dashed box 103a in fig. 1C corresponds to a photograph of a damaged alignment mark with the type CT-AH74, and it can be seen that there is a large defect in the alignment mark.
The ideal alignment signal conforms to the sine and cosine curve, but the distorted alignment signal does not conform to the sine and cosine curve. In the conventional method, the alignment signal of the entire alignment mark or the center of the alignment mark is calculated to realize alignment, when the alignment mark is damaged, the alignment signal of the entire alignment mark is definitely distorted, and the alignment signal of the center of the alignment mark is also easily distorted, so that an exposure machine directly rejects exposure to cause wafer reject (wafer reject), and thus a good wafer reject failure rate is generated. As shown in fig. 2A, the alignment mark with the model CT-AH53 corresponds to an ideal alignment signal curve 201, and the curve 201 conforms to the sine and cosine curve. As shown in fig. 2B, is the distortion versus bit signal curve 202 corresponding to fig. 2A; the curve 202 is much different from the curve 201 and will be rejected by the exposure tool.
In the conventional method, wafer reject failure often occurs due to the photolithography alignment mode, and particularly, the reject failure rate of a Power (Power) device product is very high during the photolithography exposure of a Top metal layer (Top metal), a Passivation layer (Passivation) and a polyimide layer (polyimide layer) in a back end of line (BEOL), so that rework is required, which results in a reduction of a wafer turn ratio (wafer turn rate), an increase of wafer cost, and even a risk of wafer rejection due to misjudgment. The wafer turn ratio represents the number of process stations the wafer has gone through a day.
Disclosure of Invention

scanning the whole section of the alignment mark by using an alignment light source, and collecting diffraction light signals corresponding to the whole section of the alignment mark to form a whole section of alignment signals.
And step two, carrying out segmentation processing on the whole segment of alignment signals and forming each segment of alignment signals.
And step three, respectively calculating a Multiple Correlation Coefficient (MCC) value and a Wafer alignment Quality (WQ) value of each segmented alignment signal. The MCC value indicates the accuracy of the alignment signal, and the larger the MCC value is, the more accurate the alignment signal is. The WQ value is an index related to the wafer alignment intensity.
And fourthly, calculating alignment points by adopting the segmented alignment signals with the best MCC value and WQ value so as to realize wafer alignment.
The method further comprises the step of judging whether the appearance of the alignment mark is damaged or not before the step one, and if the appearance of the alignment mark is damaged, carrying out wafer alignment by adopting the starting step and the steps one to four.
The further improvement is that before the first step, if the shape of the alignment mark is judged to be intact, the whole segment of alignment signal or the alignment signal at the center of the alignment mark in the first step is directly adopted for alignment.
In a further improvement, if the wafer alignment is successful in the fourth step, the wafer is exposed.
And if the wafer alignment fails, rejecting the exposure of the wafer.
In a further improvement, the alignment mark is a front layer alignment mark corresponding to a lithography layer of the wafer.

In a further refinement, the orders of the enhanced diffracted light of the alignment marks include 3 rd order, 5 th order, or 7 th order.
In a further refinement, a grating period of the grating pattern of the alignment marks comprises 16 μm or 17.6 μm.
In a further refinement, the width of the alignment marks comprises 80 μm.
In a further improvement, the alignment mark is disposed on a scribe line of the wafer.
The wafer alignment method is further improved in that steps one to four of the wafer alignment method are arranged in a first exposure process menu, and if the morphology of the alignment mark is determined to be damaged before the step one, the first exposure process menu is directly called for processing.

carrying out photomask alignment;
and carrying out coarse alignment on the wafer.
In a further improvement, the wafer alignment method is completed in an exposure machine, and in the first step, the wafer is fixed on a chuck (chuck).
Because the existing method is to calculate the alignment signal of the whole alignment mark or the alignment signal of the center of the alignment mark to realize alignment, when the alignment mark has damage, the distortion generated by the damage can make the whole alignment signal not reach the standard and reject the signal, i.e. reject the subsequent exposure, and the alignment signal of the center of the alignment mark is also easy to reject; the invention carries out segmentation processing on the whole segment alignment signal and forms each segment alignment signal, then calculates the MCC value and the WQ value of each segment signal, and selects the segment alignment signal with the best MCC value and WQ value to calculate the alignment point so as to realize wafer alignment.

And the wafer rejection failure rate can be reduced to the maximum extent by selecting the segmented alignment signals with the best MCC value and WQ value to calculate the alignment points.
In the embodiment of the invention, before the first step, whether the appearance of the alignment mark is damaged or not is further judged, and if the appearance of the alignment mark is damaged, the starting step is adopted and the first step to the fourth step are adopted to carry out wafer alignment. Before the first step, if the shape of the alignment mark is judged to be intact, the whole section of alignment signal 1 or the alignment signal at the center of the alignment mark in the first step is directly adopted for alignment. The judging step can adopt the existing method to carry out wafer alignment under the condition that the alignment surface is in good appearance, thus improving the wafer alignment efficiency.
And if the wafer is aligned successfully in the fourth step, exposing the wafer. Preferably, the first to fourth steps of the wafer alignment method are set in a first exposure process menu, and if it is determined that the feature of the alignment mark is damaged before the first step, the first exposure process menu is directly called for processing.

And a higher-order diffraction light enhanced subdivision structure is also arranged in the grating period of the alignment mark. The orders of the enhanced diffracted light of the alignment marks include 3 rd order, 5 th order, or 7 th order. The alignment marks are now further described with reference to fig. 4:
as shown in fig. 4, the embodiment of the present invention is an alignment mark layout with a model of CT-AH 53; the alignment mark 301 is a bar structure with a length 747 μm and a width 80 μm.
