The rough polishing apparatus for recycling wafers according to the present embodiment, as shown in fig. 1 and fig. 2, includes: the polishing machine 100, a liquid storage container 200, a silica sol container 300, a chelating agent container 400 and a PH container 500, wherein the silica sol container 300 is connected with the liquid storage container 200 through a first metering pump 310, the chelating agent container 400 is connected with the liquid storage container 200 through a second metering pump 410, the PH container 500 is connected with the liquid storage container 200 through a third metering pump 510, and an online PH meter 210 and an online conductivity meter 220 are arranged in the liquid storage container 200; the online pH meter 210 is in control connection with the third metering pump 510, and the online conductivity meter 220 is in control connection with the second metering pump 410; the liquid inlet end of the polishing machine 100 is connected with the liquid storage container 200 through a fourth metering pump 600, and the liquid storage end of the polishing machine 100 is communicated with the liquid storage container 200.
Further, a filter 700 is connected between the liquid inlet end of the polishing machine 100 and the fourth metering pump 600.
Further, a stirring device 230 is disposed in the liquid storage container 200.
Further, the polishing machine 100 includes a tray 110, a polishing pad 120, a polishing head 130, a ceramic disc 140, and a liquid outlet pipe 150, the liquid outlet pipe 150 is connected to the filter 700, a liquid outlet end of the tray 110 is connected to the liquid storage container 200, the polishing pad 120 is disposed on the tray 110, the polishing head 130 is disposed above the tray 110 in a liftable manner, the ceramic disc 140 is disposed at the bottom of the polishing head 130, and the liquid outlet pipe 150 is disposed at a side of the polishing head 130 and directly above the tray 110.
Further, the end of the outlet pipe 150 is provided with a spray head 160.
Further, the polishing pad 120 is made of a non-woven fabric.
The pH and conductivity values of the slurry are precisely measured by an in-line pH meter 210 and an in-line conductivity meter installed inside the reservoir 200. Once the pH and conductivity deviate from the default ranges, the metering pump will begin to operate and will automatically add a quantity of the pH modifier and chelant solution within the pH vessel 500 and chelant vessel 400. The pH of the polishing solution is generally controlled within a range of 10 to 11. the pH can be adjusted by an inorganic base or an organic base, or a combination of both. Generally speaking, the polishing rate of the recycled wafer is increased when the pH value of the polishing solution is increased, but when the pH value reaches a certain degree, the increase of the pH value enters a plateau period for the increase of the polishing rate, the rate cannot be continuously increased, otherwise, the stability of the silica sol liquid is reduced, and meanwhile, the roughness of the polishing effect of the surface of the silicon wafer is also reduced. The conductivity of the polishing solution is controlled to be 2-3mS/cm, and generally, the conductivity is reduced when the chelating agent is consumed, so that the metal pollution on the surface of the regenerated wafer is aggravated, but when the conductivity is too high, the stability of the silica sol is influenced, and the service life of the circulating polishing solution is influenced.
The PH modifying agent and the chelating agent are stored in the PH container 500 and the chelating agent container 400 at a higher concentration than the concentration of the PH modifying agent and the chelating agent in the circulating reservoir 200 during use, so that it is possible to maintain the concentrations of the PH modifying agent and the chelating agent in the reservoir 200 constant.
To measure the polishing rate, the thickness of the reclaimed wafer before and after polishing was measured using a dial gauge. Finally, the silicon polishing rate is stably maintained at 100 batches of measurement

In order to monitor the content of metal impurities on the surface of the regenerated wafer, the surface of the regenerated wafer is treated by HF acid, and then the solution of HF is analyzed for the concentration of metal ions by ICP-MS, wherein the concentration of Cu metal impurities on the surface of the polished silicon wafer is low when the conductivity is monitored and the addition amount of EDTA is maintained.
In this embodiment, as shown in fig. 1, the polishing liquid in the liquid storage container 200 can enter the polishing machine 100 through a pipeline by the action of the fourth metering pump 600. The slurry is filtered by the filter 700 to remove some large particles. The polishing liquid flows back into the liquid storage container 200 through the pipeline after being polished by the polishing machine 100. Before polishing starts, the silica sol liquid stored in the silica sol container 300 is pumped into the liquid storage container 200 through the pipe by the first metering pump 310. Note that the silica sol in the silica sol container 300 is drawn into the reservoir 200 only when the initial polishing solution is initially prepared, and is not added to the reservoir 200 after polishing is started. In addition, the storage container 200 is connected with the chelating agent container 400 through a pipeline, and the chelating agent container 400 stores the concentrated solution of the chelating agent. The PH container 500 stores a concentrated solution of a PH adjusting agent, which is introduced into the reservoir container 200 through a pipe by the third metering pump 510. An in-line PH meter 210 is mounted in the reservoir 200. When the pH drops below a threshold value, the associated third metering pump 510 is operated to deliver a corresponding volume of pH adjuster concentrate from the container 8 to the reservoir 200. When the pH reaches a certain value, the third metering pump 510 stops operating. An in-line conductivity meter 220 is additionally installed in the reservoir 200. When the conductivity drops to a threshold value, the associated second metering pump 410 is operated to deliver a corresponding volume of chelant concentrate to the reservoir 200. When the conductivity rises to a certain value, the second metering pump 410 stops operating. The reservoir 200 contains a mechanical paddle device to adequately agitate the circulating fluid.
The polishing machine 100 used in this embodiment is a single-side polishing machine 100, as shown in fig. 2, and includes a tray 110 capable of rotating clockwise, and a non-woven fabric polishing pad 120 is attached to the tray 110 by strong double-sided adhesive. The reclaimed wafer is attached to the ceramic disk 140 by wax, and the polisher head 130 applies downward pressure to compress the ceramic disk 140 so that the reclaimed wafer is in intimate contact with the polishing pad 120 to generate a rubbing action. The outlet pipe 150 sprays polishing liquid containing polishing particles through the spray head 160, and the polishing liquid can enter into the gap between the wafer and the polishing pad 120 to perform a polishing action on the surface of the reclaimed wafer.
The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and not intended to limit the scope of the present invention, and all modifications of equivalent structures and equivalent processes, which are made by using the contents of the present specification and the accompanying drawings, or directly or indirectly applied to other related technical fields, are included in the scope of the present invention.
