Background
The silicon electrode (also called as the upper electrode) is a core part and a key consumable material in a cavity of the plasma etching equipment, and often has thousands of micropores which penetrate through the silicon electrode in the thickness direction. When the plasma etching device works, etching gas enters the cavity of the plasma etching device through each micropore to carry out plasma etching on the wafer. Therefore, the silicon electrode surface and its micropores are required to have extremely high processing accuracy and uniformity, and the number of particles on the surface thereof needs to be strictly controlled. It is common in the industry to clean silicon electrodes with chemicals to control their particle size.
In the prior art, a basket is generally adopted as a clamping and supporting tool for chemically cleaning a sheet material, however, the inventor of the application finds that the existing basket design is generally suitable for simultaneously cleaning a plurality of wafers, and does not consider silicon electrodes, and the conventional baskets are difficult to clean the micropores of the silicon electrodes due to the large number of micropores on the surfaces of the silicon electrodes. In addition, there are some existing basket structures suitable for cleaning single wafers, however, in order to facilitate cleaning of such baskets, a column is provided on the base of the basket for supporting the wafer, which is not considered for silicon electrodes, and if the silicon electrode is cleaned in such baskets, the portion of the micropores in contact with the column cannot be cleaned well.
When cleaning the silicon electrode by selecting a basket for cleaning a single piece, if it is necessary to clean silicon electrodes of various sizes, it is necessary to replace the silicon electrode with a basket of various sizes. As the flower basket belongs to a customized product, the cost is high, and a large amount of capital cost is occupied.

Example 1
The present embodiment provides a cleaning apparatus 10 (refer to fig. 4 and 5) for a silicon electrode 20, which includes a basket frame 11 and a carrying mechanism 12. The cleaning apparatus 10 mainly cleans a single silicon electrode 20, and the silicon electrode 20 has micropores penetrating the silicon electrode 20 in the thickness direction, that is, the micropores penetrate the upper and lower surfaces of the silicon electrode 20. Wherein, the aperture of micropore can be set according to actual demand, for example, the aperture of micropore is 0.5 ~ 1.5 mm.
Wherein, the flower basket frame 11 has a certain weight, which can ensure that it is not deformed. In addition, the outer wall of the basket frame 11 has support arms by which the basket can be fixed in a fixed position in the washing machine.
In addition, the basket frame 11 has a mounting passage that penetrates the basket frame 11 in the thickness direction, and the basket frame 11 is mainly used to support the bearing mechanism 12.
The bearing mechanism 12 is detachably connected with the basket frame 11, the bearing mechanism 12 is provided with a bearing hole 121, the bearing hole 121 penetrates through the bearing mechanism 12 in the thickness direction, and the hole wall of the bearing hole 121 is configured to be capable of bearing the silicon electrode 20 and enabling the micropore to be exposed; when the bearing mechanism 12 is connected with the flower basket frame 11, the projection of the bearing hole 121 in the thickness direction of the flower basket frame 11 is completely in the mounting channel.
The carrier holes 121 are circular holes, and it is understood that the carrier holes 121 may be square holes as long as they are suitable for the silicon electrodes 20 and can carry the silicon electrodes 20.
When the silicon electrode 20 needs to be cleaned, the silicon electrode 20 is placed in the bearing hole 121, then the bearing mechanism 12 is connected with the basket frame 11, and the silicon electrode is placed in a cleaning solution for cleaning, because the bearing mechanism 12 has the bearing hole 121, and the bearing hole 121 penetrates through the bearing mechanism 12 in the thickness direction, the hole wall of the bearing hole 121 is configured to be capable of bearing the silicon electrode 20 and exposing the micropores, when the silicon electrode 20 is cleaned in the bearing hole 121, both the upper surface and the lower surface of the silicon electrode 20 can be contacted with the cleaning solution, and the micropores can be cleaned well. When the bearing mechanism 12 is connected with the basket frame 11, the projection of the bearing holes 121 in the thickness direction of the basket frame 11 is completely in the installation channel, so that the basket frame 11 does not shield the surface of the silicon electrode 20 to influence the cleaning of the silicon electrode 20.
Alternatively, when the support mechanism 12 is connected to the flower basket frame 11, the support mechanism 12 is entirely located in the mounting channel of the flower basket frame 11. It should be understood that, when the carrying mechanism 12 is connected to the flower basket frame 11, a portion of the carrying mechanism 12 may overlap with the flower basket frame 11, as long as it is ensured that when the carrying mechanism 12 is connected to the flower basket frame 11, the projection of the carrying hole 121 in the thickness direction of the flower basket frame 11 is entirely within the mounting channel.
In addition, since the basket frame 11 is detachably connected to the carrying mechanism 12, when silicon electrodes 20 of different sizes need to be cleaned, the carrying mechanism 12 with carrying holes 121 of different sizes is replaced to clean the silicon electrodes 20 of different sizes while the basket frame 11 is not replaced, so that the cost can be saved. In addition, the carrying mechanism 12 occupies a smaller space and is lighter in weight than the flower basket frame 11.
When replacing the bearing mechanism 12 having the bearing holes 121 with different sizes, the inner diameters of the bearing holes 121 may be different, the outer diameters of the bearing mechanisms 12 may be the same, or the inner diameters of the bearing holes 121 may be different, and the outer diameters of the bearing mechanisms 12 may also be different.
Wherein, it is various to realize that the mode that load-bearing mechanism 12 can dismantle with basket of flowers frame 11 and be connected, and this application embodiment does not limit it, and when the internal diameter of bearing hole 121 is different, and the external diameter of load-bearing mechanism 12 is the same, can adopt following connected mode: for example, a retaining ring may be provided on the carrying mechanism 12, a connecting ring may be provided on the flower basket frame 11, and the detachable connection of the carrying mechanism 12 and the flower basket frame 11 may be realized through the connection of the retaining ring and the connecting ring. An internal thread can be arranged on the wall of the mounting channel of the flower basket frame 11, an external thread is arranged on the outer wall of the bearing mechanism 12, and the bearing mechanism 12 and the flower basket frame 11 can be detachably connected through the matching of the internal thread and the external thread.
In a possible embodiment, the flower basket frame 11 is provided with at least one set of mounting holes 111, at least one first fixing post 122 is connected to the bearing mechanism 12, each set of mounting holes 111 includes at least one first mounting hole, and the bearing mechanisms 12 with the different-sized bearing holes 121 have their first fixing posts 122 capable of being cooperatively connected with the first mounting holes of the set of mounting holes 111.
For example, two sets of the mounting hole sets 111 are provided, two first fixing posts 122 are provided, the two first fixing posts 122 can be respectively matched and connected with the first mounting holes of the two sets of the mounting hole sets 111, and the first fixing posts 122 can be inserted into the first mounting holes so that the flower basket frame 11 and the bearing mechanism 12 are kept relatively fixed. It is understood that three, four or more sets of the mounting control sets may be provided, and the first fixing posts 122 are also provided correspondingly.
In some specific embodiments, at least two sets of the mounting hole sets 111 are provided, and each two sets of the mounting hole sets 111 are symmetrically provided along a diagonal line of the flower basket frame 11. Each first fixing post 122 is more stable when it is coupled with the first mounting hole of one of the mounting hole sets 111.
When the carrying mechanism 12 with the carrying holes 121 of different sizes is connected with the flower basket frame 11, the first fixing posts 122 of different carrying mechanisms 12 can be connected with the first mounting holes in a matching manner, so that the carrying mechanism 12 is fixed with the flower basket frame 11.
For example, when different inner diameters and the same outer diameters of the adopted carrying mechanisms 12 are used, the first fixing posts 122 of different carrying mechanisms 12 can be matched and connected with the same batch of mounting holes. That is, the mounting hole for the second time of engaging and connecting the carrier 12 is also the mounting hole for the first time of engaging and connecting the carrier 12.
Alternatively, when the mounting hole group 111 includes a plurality of first mounting holes, the plurality of first mounting holes are arranged along the radial direction of the flower basket frame 11, and when the inner diameters of the adopted carrying mechanisms 12 are different and the outer diameters are different, the first fixing columns 122 of different carrying mechanisms 12 can be connected with different mounting holes arranged in the radial direction in a matching manner.
In addition, a plurality of mounting holes of the mounting hole group 111 can be further arranged along the circumferential direction, and when the bearing mechanisms 12 with different outer diameters are selected to be connected with the flower basket frame 11, the plurality of mounting holes are not only distributed along the circumferential direction, but also distributed along the circumferential direction, so that the connection is more convenient.
Referring to fig. 1 to fig. 3, optionally, the supporting mechanism 12 is connected to a connecting member 123, the connecting member 123 has a first elongated hole 1231, the first elongated hole extends along a radial direction of the supporting mechanism 12, and the first fixing column 122 is installed in the first elongated hole 1231 and can move along the extending direction of the first elongated hole 1231. Illustratively, the first fixing column 122 includes a first section and a second section, the outer diameter of the first section is greater than that of the second section, the second section penetrates through the first elongated hole 1231, and the first section abuts against the upper surface of the connecting member 123.
The inventor of the present application found in research that if the position of the first fixing post 122 on the carrying mechanism 12 is fixed, the first fixing post 122 cannot be inserted into the first mounting hole when the position of the first fixing post 122 is slightly misaligned with the first mounting hole. And install first fixed column 122 in first rectangular shape hole 1231 and can follow the extending direction removal in first rectangular shape hole 1231, then can adjust first fixed column 122 in the position of first rectangular shape hole 1231 to adapt to the position of first mounting hole, avoid the inconvenient problem of connecting of position dislocation of first fixed column 122 and first mounting hole.
In addition, it should be noted that the size of the connecting member 123 and the length of the first elongated hole 1231 can be adjusted according to the situation, so as to adapt to different installation requirements.
Illustratively, the flower basket frame 11 is further provided with a through hole 112, and the through hole 112 penetrates through the flower basket frame 11 along the thickness direction, so that the buoyancy of the cleaning device 10 in the cleaning liquid can be reduced, and the cleaning is facilitated.
Further, the hole wall of the carrier hole 121 has a first inclined surface 1211 for supporting a bottom edge of the silicon electrode 20 in a circumferential direction thereof. The bottom edge of the silicon electrode 20 refers to an edge connecting the side surface and the bottom surface of the silicon electrode 20.
Since the first inclined surface 1211 on the hole wall of the carrying hole 121 can support the bottom edge of the silicon electrode 20, the lower surface of the silicon electrode 20 does not contact with the hole wall of the carrying hole 121, and the lower surface of the silicon electrode 20 can be prevented from contacting with the hole wall of the carrying hole 121 to generate an imprint. But also better shielding of the micropores of the silicon electrode 20, thereby enabling better cleaning of the micropores of the silicon electrode 20.
Optionally, the included angle between the first inclined surface 1211 and the axis of the bearing hole 121 is 15 to 75 °, for example, 15 °, 20 °, 30 °, 40 °, 45 °, 50 °, 60 °, 70 °, or 75 °.
Illustratively, the surface of the first inclined surface 1211 is a flexible polymer layer, such as a polytetrafluoroethylene layer. The material of the flexible polymer layer is not particularly limited in this application, as long as it can play a certain cushioning role.
When the first inclined surface 1211 supports the bottom edge of the silicon electrode 20, the silicon electrode 20 is less likely to be damaged due to the presence of the flexible polymer layer.
Further, when the silicon electrode 20 is placed in the carrying hole 121, in order to avoid the silicon electrode 20 from falling off, exemplarily, the carrying mechanism 12 is mounted with a limiting member 14 for limiting the silicon electrode 20 in the carrying hole 121, and the limiting member 14 is movably disposed on the carrying mechanism 12 so that the limiting member 14 can move back and forth between a first position and a second position, and when the limiting member 14 is located at the first position, the limiting member 14 is used for abutting against the silicon electrode 20 in the carrying hole 121; when the limiting member 14 is located at the second position, the limiting member 14 is away from the bearing hole 121.
The stopper 14 can restrict the silicon electrode 20 in the carrier hole 121, and when the silicon electrode 20 is cleaned, the silicon electrode 20 is not easily removed from the carrier hole 121. In addition, since the limiting member 14 is movably disposed on the carrying mechanism 12 and can move back and forth between the first position and the second position, when the silicon electrode 20 does not need to be limited in the carrying hole 121, the limiting member 14 can be moved to the second position and away from the carrying hole 121.
Exemplarily, the surface of the bearing mechanism 12 is connected with a second fixing column 15, the limiting member 14 is provided with a second elongated hole 142 extending along the radial direction of the bearing mechanism 12, the second fixing column 15 is disposed in the second elongated hole 142, the limiting member 14 can slide relative to the bearing mechanism 12, and the second fixing column 15 is matched with the second elongated hole 142, so that the movement track of the limiting member 14 is limited, and the limiting member 14 can move above the bearing hole 121 and move above the bearing mechanism 12 back and forth.
In other embodiments, the limiting member 14 may be configured to be rotatably connected to the supporting mechanism 12, one end of the limiting member 14 is connected to a rotating shaft, the rotating shaft is fixed to the supporting mechanism 12, and the limiting member 14 can move above the supporting hole 121 and above the supporting mechanism 12 back and forth by rotating the limiting member 14, so that the silicon electrode 20 can be limited in the supporting hole 121.
Further, the stopper 14 has a second inclined surface 141 for abutting against the top edge of the silicon electrode 20. The top rib refers to a rib connecting the side surface and the upper surface of the silicon electrode 20.
Since the limiting member 14 has the second inclined surface 141 for abutting against the top edge of the silicon electrode 20, when the limiting member 14 limits the silicon electrode 20 in the bearing hole 121, the second inclined surface 141 abuts against the top edge of the silicon electrode 20 to limit the silicon electrode 20, and at this time, the upper surface of the silicon electrode 20 does not contact with the limiting member 14, so that the upper surface of the silicon electrode 20 can be prevented from contacting with the limiting member 14 to generate marks. But also better shielding of the micropores of the silicon electrode 20, thereby enabling better cleaning of the micropores of the silicon electrode 20.
Illustratively, the surface of the second inclined surface 141 is a flexible polymer layer. When the second inclined face 141 supports the top edge of the silicon electrode 20, the silicon electrode 20 is less likely to be damaged due to the presence of the flexible polymer layer. The material of the flexible polymer layer is not particularly limited in this application, as long as it can play a certain cushioning role.
Further, in order to conveniently place the silicon electrode 20 in the bearing hole 121 or take the silicon electrode 20 out of the bearing hole 121, the upper surface of the bearing mechanism 12 is exemplarily provided with a groove 124, and the groove 124 is communicated with the bearing hole 121, so that the silicon electrode 20 is more conveniently handled due to the existence of the groove 124.
