A kind of cleaning device
Technical field
The utility model relates to semiconductor manufacturing equipment, relates in particular to a kind of cleaning device of rubbing head of chemical-mechanical polisher.
Background technology
Chemically mechanical polishing (Chemical Mechanical Polishing, CMP) technology is the technology of mechanical lapping and chemical reaction combination, chemical Mechanical Polishing Technique forms bright and clean smooth plane by the chemical attack effect of ultramicronized abrasive action and slurry on polished dielectric surface.Chemical Mechanical Polishing Technique is the product of integrated circuit (IC) to granular, multiple stratification, slimming, flatening process development, become the mainstream technology of semiconductor manufacturing, also be wafer to 200mm, 300mm and even bigger diameter excessively, enhance productivity, reduce the technology of manufacturing cost and substrate globalize planarization indispensability.Chemical Mechanical Polishing Technique has become the maincenter technology of semiconductor fabrication process.
A complete CMP process mainly is made up of operations such as polishing, back cleaning and measurements.Wherein the cleaning that comprises wafer is cleaned in the back, also comprises the cleaning to each parts of chemical-mechanical polisher.The purpose of back cleaning is that residual particles in the chemically mechanical polishing and pollution are reduced to acceptable level.In the prior art, described chemical-mechanical polisher comprises rubbing head, grinding plate and the cleaning part between grinding plate, the bottom surface of described rubbing head be provided be used for fixing wafer keep ring (Retainingring), the described ring of keeping also is provided with a plurality of grooves.In metal or medium CMP process, the rubbing head of chemical-mechanical polisher directly contacts with polishing fluid and wafer, cause that the polishing fluid bespatter is to rubbing head, the polishing fluid and the polishing fluid crystallization of the residual a lot of mixing of meeting also can residually have a lot of pollutants in the rubbing head side simultaneously in the groove of rubbing head bottom surface.
In the prior art, the cleaning polishing head adopts deionized water rinsing and utilizes the cleaning part between the grinding plate to wash, can't the mixing residue in the groove of rubbing head side and bottom surface thoroughly be cleaned, less abrasive grains has increased the difficulty of removing residue in the chemically mechanical polishing.These residues mainly are made up of metallic particles or other external material granules of polishing fluid (particle diameter changes in 0.1 to 1.0 micron or bigger scope), wafer surface.When being exposed in the air, these residues can crystallization become big, pollute the wafer of next group polishing by two kinds of approach, the particle of growing up in the residue directly pollutes or the scuffing chip back surface on the one hand, be that these residues enter polishing disk in the CMP process on the other hand, scratch or pollution wafer surface.These residues are wafer major defect sources at CMP process.The main two class defectives that form: the one, the pollution of residual polishing fluid, wafer surface metal or foreign material, the 2nd, the scratch of wafer surface, groove or pit, this two classes defective produces very big side effect to device yield.
Residue brings problem to an independent wafer incessantly.In CMP process, residue on the rubbing head may pollute chip back surface and surface, if residue can not get timely cleaning, along with the polishing number of times increases, residue also accumulates in the groove on rubbing head and propagates, thereby causes the cross pollution of wafer.And in CMP process, wafer adopts manipulator to take out from process cavity, and residual polishing fluid particle, metallic particles or other particles pass to chip back surface by rubbing head, and these particulates also may be propagated by manipulator, pollute other wafers.If these wafers are also contaminated, these residues can be assembled on mechanical arm, cause pollution accumulation.
Therefore need cleaning polishing head effectively.
