Referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 is a schematic structural diagram of a flattop leveling laser scanning device based on a plano-convex lens according to an embodiment of the present invention; the plano-convex lens-based plano-convex laser shaping scanning device can be applied to scenes of semiconductor laser annealing, solar cell laser doping and material removal, obtains ideal plano-convex light spots, realizes scanning of a small-width area, and keeps consistent plano-convex light spots at all positions in the area.
Referring to fig. 2, the flattop shaping laser scanning device based on the plano-convex lens includes a laser 10, an optical component, a galvanometer 40, and a plano-convex lens 50, which are connected in sequence, wherein the laser 10 is used for emitting a laser beam; the optical component is used for shaping and modulating the laser beam; the plano-convex lens 50 is used for focusing the modulated laser beam output by the optical component to obtain a flat-top light spot on a focal plane; and the galvanometer is used for carrying out laser scanning on the processing surface 60 by utilizing the flat-top light spots.
In the present embodiment, the field lens is replaced by the plano-convex lens 50, the focal length is F, the focal plane is a spherical surface, and since the processing surface 60 is generally a plane, as long as the processing surface 60 is within the depth of focus DOF range with the focal plane as the reference, the shaping light spots on the processing surface 60 can still maintain the flat-top distribution. DOF ═ F/cos θ -F; the depth of focus of the diffractive optics is related to the lens focal length F as follows: DOF is 0.001 × F. From this, F/cos θ -F is 0.001 × F, and θ is arccos (1/1.001); at this time, tan θ ≈ θ is also satisfied. That is, as long as the deflection angle of the galvanometer 40 is smaller than the value θ, a very close flat-top light spot can be obtained on the processing surface 60, and the corresponding scanning breadth is: 2F tan θ; the scanning linear velocity is F × tan θ ≈ F × θ, and it can be seen that the scanning linear velocity also has a linear relationship with the deflection angular velocity of the oscillating mirror 40. Therefore, the plano-convex lens 50 is used to replace a field lens, so that an ideal flat-top light spot can be obtained, and small-scale scanning of a certain area can be maintained. Therefore, the problem that the flat-top light distribution distortion caused by the traditional field lens application deviates from the shaping effect of the original design is solved.
In one embodiment, referring to fig. 2, the above-mentioned optical assembly includes a beam expander 20 and a DOE30 connected in sequence.
In one embodiment, referring to fig. 2, the plano-convex lens 50 is located below the galvanometer 40.
Specifically, the focal surface of the plano-convex lens 50 is spherical.
The processing surface 60 is located within a focal depth range with respect to the focal surface of the planoconvex lens 50.
For semiconductor annealing application, the light spot needs to be shaped into flat-top distribution and irradiated on the material to realize effective annealing, and for the shaping system applying the plano-convex lens 50, the small-amplitude scanning of the galvanometer 40 and the movement of the wafer placing platform can be combined to realize the annealing of the whole wafer due to the large size of the wafer.
In an embodiment, the flattop leveling laser scanning device based on the plano-convex lens further includes a moving structure, the moving structure is located below the plano-convex lens 50, a processing sample is placed on the moving structure, and a processing surface 60 is arranged on the processing sample.
The movement structure is utilized to drive the processed sample to move, the flat-top light spot output by the plano-convex lens 50 is used for scanning and processing the processed surface 60 of the processed sample, an ideal flat-top light spot can be obtained in a small area on a focal plane, and the defects that the flat-top light distribution distortion is caused by the application of a traditional field lens and the shaping effect is deviated from the originally designed shaping effect are overcome.
For example: for a 6 inch, 150mm diameter wafer annealing application, a plano-convex lens 50 shaping system with a focal length of 330mm is used, and the diameter of the single scan is 2 × F × tan θ is 29.5mm, and for splicing convenience, the single scan area should be designed as a square with a side length of 20 mm. The annealing of the whole wafer can be realized by adopting the method of scanning by the galvanometer 40 and moving the platform.
According to the flat-top light shaping laser scanning device based on the plano-convex lens, the field lens is replaced by the plano-convex lens 50 through the laser 10, the optical component, the galvanometer 40 and the plano-convex lens 50 which are connected in sequence, and the plano-convex lens 50 can output ideal flat-top light spots in a small area on a focal plane, so that the problems that the flat-top light distribution is distorted and deviates from the shaping effect of the original design due to the application of the traditional field lens are solved.
In an embodiment, there is also provided a working method of a planoconvex lens-based planoconvex laser scanning device, including:
