Description

Wafer flatness detection device based on bilateral grazing incidence common path self-interference technology
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of semiconductor manufacturing, and particularly relates to a wafer flatness detection device based on a bilateral grazing incidence common path self-interference technology.
Background
In the modern semiconductor industry, wafer processing is an extremely important front-end process, and the increasing level of the process also puts higher demands on the detection technology.
During the process of grinding and polishing the wafer, the stress causes unexpected changes in the properties of the wafer, such as the morphology, the thickness and the like, and even leads to rejection of the wafer, so that the wafer needs to be detected in time. Various parameters for characterizing the wafer morphology, thickness and other attributes are collectively referred to as the flatness of the wafer, and specifically include: warp (BOW), deformation (Warp), deformation with respect to a fitting Surface (SORI), maximum thickness variation (TTV), and the like.
The flatness of the wafer can be calculated from any two of three sets of data, i.e., the surface profile and the thickness variation of the two surfaces of the wafer, and the most suitable method for accurately measuring the data is an optical interference method.
Therefore, for detecting the wafer flatness, there are two main routes in the prior art:
first, a flatness parameter is calculated by detecting a profile and a thickness profile of one surface (usually a polished surface) of a wafer. One specific embodiment of this route (see prior art 1: A.W.Kulawiec. interferometer for measuring the thickness variations of semiconductor wafers: US,97/45698[ P/OL ].1997-12-04) utilizes the property of the wafer material that it is opaque in the visible band and partially transparent in the near infrared band to construct a Taeman-Green (Twyman-Green) interference system using a laser with a central wavelength of 633nm as the light source, and detects the surface type distribution of the polished surface of the wafer; and meanwhile, constructing a Fizeau interference system taking a laser with the central wavelength of 1550nm as a light source, and detecting the thickness distribution between two surfaces of the wafer to be detected.
Secondly, the flatness parameters are calculated by detecting the surface profile distribution of the two surfaces of the wafer. One specific embodiment of the method of the route (see prior art 2: J.M.Cobb, T.J.Dunn, J.W.Frankovich.Grazing-incidence interferometer with dual-side measurement capability: US, 2015/00493337A 1[ P/OL ].2015-02-19) utilizes a grazing incidence interference technique to enable the unpolished surface of the wafer to have high reflectivity so as to realize interference detection on two surface type distributions.
The problem of the prior art 1 is that the fizeau system therein is difficult to implement conventional phase-shifting interference, so that the demodulation of an interferogram is difficult, and the thickness measurement is affected by the wafer material, so that the error is large; compared with the prior art, the prior art 2 is more feasible, is the mainstream technology in the field of wafer flatness detection, and is applied to the FlatMaster series equipment of Corning Tropel corporation.
However, the "diffractive beam splitting-combining system", "phase shifting system", "relay optical system" and "folded optical system" introduced in the prior art 2 for eliminating the Mapping Error (Mapping Error) introduced by the grazing incidence make the flatness detector of the FlatMaster series based on the prior art very complicated in structure and large in volume, and the actual precision of the flatness detector can only reach about 1 μm due to a large number of system Error sources; meanwhile, although the prior art 2 skillfully utilizes a double-grating light path structure to realize common-path interference, the phase shift technology is still required to be introduced to demodulate the arrangement mode of an interferogram/phase shift mechanism, which is a challenge to ensure that both surfaces of a wafer can be completely measured without being shielded.
In summary, the field of wafer flatness detection is not yet fully developed. Even though the current mainstream wafer flatness detection equipment, the FlatMaster series, still has some problems in technical means, and limits further improvement of detection precision. Therefore, in order to improve the detection accuracy of the wafer flatness parameter to adapt to a new process level and to realize the localization of the detection equipment in the field, a new technical solution is needed.

Detailed Description
The invention is further illustrated by the following figures and examples.
The optical path structure of the device proposed by the invention is explained in detail as follows:
fig. 1 is a light path model diagram of a wafer flatness detection apparatus based on a double-side grazing incidence common-path self-interference technique according to the present invention. As shown in fig. 1, light emitted by a laser (S1) (which is an emitted light beam of a laser collimating head if a fiber laser is used) is split into two paths by a first beam splitter (S3) after being expanded by a collimating beam expander (S2), wherein one path is reflected by the first reflector (S4) for 90 degrees and then reflected by a second reflector (S5) to be incident on the lower surface (S7a) of a wafer to be measured (S7) at a grazing incidence angle θ, and the other path is directly reflected by a third reflector (S6) to be incident on the upper surface (S7b) of the wafer to be measured (S7) at the same incidence angle θ; the light reflected by the lower surface (S7a) is reflected by the fourth reflecting mirror (S8) and then enters the beam splitter (S11), the light reflected by the upper surface (S7b) sequentially passes through the fifth reflecting mirror (S9) and the sixth reflecting mirror (S10) and then also enters the beam splitter (S11), the two light paths are converged into one light path in the beam splitter (S11), then the light path is shaped by the beam shaping system (S12), the beam aperture is reduced by the beam reducer (S13), and finally the interference pattern is generated and collected by the co-path self-interference system (S14).
The grazing incidence angle refers to a large incidence angle of 80 ° or more, because the wafer has a polished surface and an unpolished surface, and an incidence angle closer to 90 ° can make the unpolished surface have higher reflectivity to light rays, so that the interference pattern has good contrast. In addition, light spots projected onto two surfaces of the wafer to be tested need to cover all test areas of the wafer to be tested, and simultaneously, for the purpose that subsequently calculated surface type distribution can be correspondingly subtracted, the Y coordinates of the central points of the two light spots need to be consistent, here, the centers of the two light spots are coincided with the central points Oa and Ob of the two surfaces of the wafer to be tested, and at the moment, the two light spots are consistent in Y coordinates and are also concentric with the corresponding surface to be tested.
In order to ensure that the optical axis (Z axis) of the system does not change, the poses of S3-S11 should meet the following requirements:
the system optical axis (Z axis) direction is the light emitting direction of the collimation beam expander (S2), the acute angle between the first spectroscope (S3), the second spectroscope (S11), the first reflector (S4) and the system optical axis (S10) is 45 degrees, the acute angle between the second reflector (S5), the third reflector (S6), the fourth reflector (S8), the acute angle between the fifth reflector (S9) and the system optical axis is theta/2, and the placing direction of the wafer to be measured (S7) is parallel to the system optical axis (namely the surface to be measured is in the XY plane).
Due to grazing incidence, P1The cross section of the light beam with a circular cross section at the position P3 behind the beam splitter S11 is an ellipse, and if the caliber of the wafer to be measured is D, the major axis of the ellipse is D (along the X-axis direction in FIG. 1) and the minor axis is Dcos theta (along the Y-axis direction in FIG. 1). If the interference pattern is not processed in this case, a mapping error is introduced into the finally obtained interference pattern, that is, each point in the interference pattern and each point on the surface to be measured are not in a linear mapping relationship, thereby affecting the detection accuracy. The solution provided here is to shape the elliptical spot, and the shaping system S12 includes two parabolic cylindrical mirrors, the generatrix of which forms an acute angle of 45 ° with the system optical axis, which has the effect of shaping the light beam with an elliptical cross-section at P3 into a light beam with a circular cross-section at P4, the radius of the circle being the original elliptical minor axis Dcos θ.
According to the difference of the sizes of the wafers to be detected, the width of the light beam at the position P4 is not necessarily matched with that of the co-channel self-interference system S14, so that the magnification-adjustable beam reducer S13 is arranged between the light beam and the light beam, and the diameter of the light beam is reduced to be matched with that of the entrance pupil of the co-channel self-interference system S14.
The common-path self-interference system S14 is a four-wavefront lateral shear interference (QWLLSI) system including a diffraction grating S14a for generating four wavefronts andcamera S14b, a model of which is shown in fig. 2. Wherein a in FIG. 2 is the internal optical path S14, as can be seen from the incident wave surface W0Four wave surfaces W with completely consistent shapes and only lateral deviation are generated through grating diffraction1、W2、W3、W4. As shown in fig. 2b, these four waved surfaces are superimposed on the camera image surface, and lateral shearing interference occurs in the overlapping region thereof, and an example of a lateral shearing interference pattern is shown in fig. 2 c.
The ideal model of the diffraction grating S14a is a cosine grating, whose amplitude transmittance t (x, y) is as in equation (1), where d is the period of the grating.
Figure BDA0002939016440000071
The Fraunhofer diffraction F (u, v) has four orders, as shown in formula (2), where the four orders correspond to the four wave surfaces participating in interference:
Figure BDA0002939016440000072
since the half-period transmittance of the cosine Grating is negative and cannot be made in reality, the actual Grating is an approximation to the ideal model, mainly including Cross Gratings (CG), an improved hartmann mask (MHM), a Random Encoded Hybrid Grating (REHG), and the like, and the approximation degree is gradually increased. If CG is selected as the diffraction grating, since there is an interference diffraction order with higher intensity, it is necessary to design an order selection window between the CG and the camera to select the required four orders.
The four-wavefront transverse shearing interferogram can be subjected to analysis and processing by a space frequency domain demodulation method through a Fourier spectrum of a single interferogram to obtain phase distribution, then the surface type distribution of a surface to be measured is calculated, and finally the flatness parameter of the wafer is calculated.
The method for testing the wafer flatness of the device provided by the invention is explained in detail as follows:
the test procedure comprises the following three main steps: the first step is that according to the light path structure requirement, the device is built and calibrated by using a standard component; the second step is that four-wave front transverse shearing interference is respectively carried out on the two surfaces of the wafer to be detected, and the interference pattern is demodulated to calculate the surface type distribution of the two surfaces; and thirdly, calculating each parameter representing the flatness of the wafer by using the obtained surface type distribution. The whole flow is shown in fig. 3, and the specific description of each step is as follows:
firstly, the construction and calibration work of the device are as follows:
first, the construction of the device is completed according to the general principles of optical system construction and the description of the device in the summary of the invention. The device is then calibrated using a standard, which may be a quartz disk conforming to the NIST standard or other standard selected according to the actual testing needs. The first purpose of calibration is to check whether the device works normally, and the second purpose is to calculate the system error by recording the surface profile distribution of two surfaces of the standard component as
Figure BDA0002939016440000081
And secondly, completing the interference detection of two surfaces of the wafer:
the device adopts common-path interference without providing reference light, so that when the surface shape of one surface of a wafer is detected, another light path needs to be blocked by a light blocking screen, and the inserted position of the light blocking screen is P in figure 11Or P2To (3). Firstly at P1A light blocking screen is inserted, and the phase distribution W introduced by the S7a surface is obtained by detection and calculation by utilizing the four-wave front transverse shear interference technologya(x, y); then at P2A light blocking screen is inserted, and the phase distribution W introduced by the S7b surface is obtained by detection and calculation by utilizing the four-wave front transverse shear interference technologyb(x, y). In interferometric detection, the phase distribution derived from the interferogram is not exactly equal to the surface distribution to be measured, but there is a conversion scaling factor called the interference factor (ISF). The calculation of the interference factor of the grazing incidence system is shown in FIG. 4, in which the surface at the reference position A on the surface to be measuredThe model actually protrudes to the position B, the protrusion amount is h, and the introduced optical path difference is AD + AC. The incidence angle is theta, and the expression of ISF is shown as formula (3):
ISF=(AD+AC)/h=1/(2cosθ) (3)
thus, Wa(x,y)、Wb(x, y) corresponding surface type distribution Fa0(x,y)、Fb0(x, y) is as in formula (4):
Figure BDA0002939016440000091
it should be noted that the profile distribution F is shown herea0(x,y)、Fb0(x, y) including systematic errors, and actual surface shapes F of two surfaces of the wafers S7a and S7b to be tested according to the surface shape calibration result of the standard component in the first stepa(x,y)、Fb(x, y) is as in formula (5):
Figure BDA0002939016440000092
thirdly, calculating the flatness parameters of the wafer:
the definition of each parameter characterizing the flatness of the wafer is shown in FIG. 5. Wherein BOW, WARP and SORI are parameters describing a single face and TTV is determined by the face type distribution of two faces.
The specific description of each parameter is as follows:
as shown in a of FIG. 5, BOW is the center O of a surface a (generally, a polished surface) of the wafer in the unclamped state0The point is relative to the reference plane raHeight deviation (i.e. O in the figure)0O1Length of). The non-clamping means that the wafer cannot be rigidly fixed by a certain clamp so as to prevent the surface shape of the wafer from being changed by stress. Reference plane raMay be given by the average height of the face or other criteria, and is generally a horizontal plane. Wherein BOW is positive if the O point is above the reference plane and negative otherwise.
As shown in b of FIG. 5, WARP is the highest point H of a surface a (generally a polished surface) of the wafer in the unclamped state0And the lowest point L0The height deviation between them, i.e. the PV (Peak-Valley) value of the face. Wherein H0、L0Is still the horizontal plane ra
As shown in c of FIG. 5, the SORI is the highest point H of a surface a (generally, a polished surface) of the wafer in the unclamped state1And the lowest point L1Height deviation therebetween, here H1、L1The reference plane is an inclined fitting plane rtAnd is obtained by a least square method. Therefore, SORI is the PV value of the plane with respect to the tilted fitting plane.
TTV is the thickness Δ h at the thickest point between two surfaces of a wafer, as shown by d in FIG. 5MThickness delta h of the thinnest partmThe difference, i.e., the maximum variation range of the wafer thickness.
According to the above description, the calculation formula of the flatness parameters BOW, WARP, SORI and TTV is as follows (6):
Figure BDA0002939016440000101
wherein Fo、h0The height of the center position of the surface to be measured and the height of the horizontal reference surface are respectively, and the two heights need to select the same reference; f' is the inclined reference surface r rotating FtAnd obtaining the face shape according to the corresponding angle.
