The utility model provides a kind of sample lapping aid, refers to Fig. 3 and Fig. 4, is shown as stereogram and the sectional view of this servicing unit respectively, and described sample lapping aid comprises:
Substrate 3;
Some layer films 4, superposition is formed at described substrate 3 upper surface successively;
For the groove 5 of accommodating ground sample, described groove 5 runs through described substrate 3 and all described films 4.
Concrete, the number of plies of described film 4 is more than or equal to 100, in the present embodiment, described sample lapping aid is to comprise 100 layer films, as shown in Figure 2, film 4001, film 4002, film 4003, film 4004, film 4005, film 4006, film 4007, film 4008 is followed successively by from top to bottom ..., film 4099 and film 4100.
In the present embodiment, the thickness of every thin film is preferably identical, is convenient to calculate grinding thickness according to the film number of plies.In the present embodiment, the thickness of every thin film is preferably 100nm, both the thickness (inner layer metal of such as below 28nm processing procedure sample and the thickness range of internal layer through hole are about 50nm ± 30nm) of the every one deck of ground sample had been matched with, be similar to scale again, be convenient to bluntly estimate grinding thickness.Certainly, in other embodiments, the thickness of described film also can adopt other numerical value, should too not limit protection domain of the present utility model herein.
Concrete, figure in every thin film is all different, thus in process of lapping, just can judge to be ground to which layer exactly by the pattern on observation by light microscope servicing unit, greatly save the time of de-electromation microscope confirmation repeatedly, it also avoid electron microscope and repeatedly irradiate the injury that sample is caused.
Described figure include but not limited to Arabic numerals (1,2,3,4 ...), English capitalization (A, B, C, D ...) and English less letter (a, b, c, d ...) etc.Exemplarily, the material of described film is silica, and the material of described figure is copper.Described figure obtains by conventional semiconductor process such as photoetching, development, etching, plated metal, chemically mechanical polishings.
Exemplarily, described substrate 3 is square, and the side size range of described substrate 3 is 0.5 ~ 2cm.In the present embodiment, the length of side of described substrate is preferably 1cm.Certainly in other embodiments, described substrate can be also other shape, as pentagon, hexagon etc., as long as be convenient to fixing, should too not limit protection domain of the present utility model herein.
In the present embodiment, with the mating shapes of described substrate 3, described groove 5 is also square, and the four edges of described groove 5 is parallel with the four edges of described substrate respectively.Described groove 5 is preferably positioned at described substrate 3 and film 4 central authorities, the uniformity be distributed with when being beneficial to ground sample symmetrical like this.
Concrete, the length of side of described groove 5 is 1/3 ~ 2/3 of described substrate 3 length of side, and in the present embodiment, the length of side of described groove 5 is preferably for described substrate 3 length of side 1/2, i.e. 5mm.
The using method of sample lapping aid of the present utility model is as follows:
First, ground sample 6 is prepared into slightly more a little bit smaller than described groove 5, then described ground sample 6 is pasted onto in described groove 5, make the surface of the surface of ground sample 6 and sample lapping aid in same level.
Refer to Fig. 5 and be shown as decomposing schematic representation ground sample 6 being put into sample lapping aid.Refer to Fig. 6, be shown as profile ground sample being put into sample lapping aid, wherein, ground sample is fixed on described servicing unit by PUR 7.
Concrete, described servicing unit and described ground sample are tipped upside down on a fully-flattened (as slide etc.), with the upper surface of the upper surface and described ground sample that ensure described servicing unit in same level, then PUR 7 is coated at described ground sample 6 and the described servicing unit back side, and cooling makes described PUR 7 solidify, thus described ground sample is fixed on described servicing unit by PUR 7 stickup.
Then, the servicing unit pasting ground sample is turned and is fixed on grinding table, grinding can be started.
Because the film thickness that each figure on described servicing unit is corresponding is known, so just mill can be accurately calculated according to the film pattern around described groove 5 when ground sample go down how many, thus infer which layer the ground sample in the middle of described servicing unit has been ground to, greatly save the time of de-electromation microscope confirmation repeatedly, it also avoid electron microscope and repeatedly irradiate the injury that sample is caused.
The internal structure of described ground sample 6 is had nothing in common with each other according to the chip type and position that will carry out failure analysis, and exemplarily, as shown in Figure 6, described ground sample comprises the first metal layer 8, second metal level 9 and the 3rd metal level 10.As shown in Figure 7, when observing described servicing unit process to layer 6 film 4006 under light microscope (OM), due to the known thickness will analyzing every one deck of sample, at this moment just can know that sample is treated above the second metal level 9, the bottom of through hole.
Further, because ground sample has been placed on the centre of described servicing unit, the planarization of grinding just can be judged by the thin layer observing servicing unit all around four direction place, if the dynamics that out-of-flatness just can adjust grinding makes servicing unit all around all at same layer film, the ground sample of such centre just can ensure large-scale planarization, and this has very large help to the preparation of 28nm and following processing procedure sample.
Refer to Fig. 8, be shown as schematic diagram during abradant surface out-of-flatness, wherein, subregion is ground to four-level membrane 4004, and subregion is ground to layer 6 film 4006.Refer to Fig. 9, be shown as adjustment grinding dynamics and must obtain the smooth schematic diagram of abradant surface, wherein, servicing unit is all ground to layer 6 film 4006 all around.
Above, by the help of sample lapping aid of the present utility model, the thickness grinding can be known exactly, thus be parked in the level needing to observe in time, large-scale planarization can be ensured simultaneously, improve the preparation efficiency of the sample of 28nm and following processing procedure failure analysis.
In sum, sample lapping aid of the present utility model is applicable to the Product Failure Analysis of 28nm and following advanced process, the sample preparation that will grind must be slightly more a little bit smaller than servicing unit central authorities groove, and sample is pasted onto in groove, make sample surfaces and servicing unit surface in same level, in process of lapping, just can judge to be ground to which layer exactly by the pattern on observation by light microscope servicing unit, greatly save the time of de-electromation microscope confirmation repeatedly, it also avoid electron microscope and repeatedly irradiate the injury that sample is caused.Meanwhile, because sample is placed on the central authorities of servicing unit, the planarization ground just can be judged by the layer observing servicing unit all around four direction place, thus the dynamics of adjustment grinding in time, the large-scale planarization of guarantee sample.So the utility model effectively overcomes various shortcoming of the prior art and tool high industrial utilization.
Above-described embodiment is illustrative principle of the present utility model and effect thereof only, but not for limiting the utility model.Any person skilled in the art scholar all without prejudice under spirit of the present utility model and category, can modify above-described embodiment or changes.Therefore, such as have in art and usually know that the knowledgeable modifies or changes not departing from all equivalences completed under the spirit and technological thought that the utility model discloses, must be contained by claim of the present utility model.
