Referring to fig. 1 and 2, the present utility model provides a semiconductor vacuum gauge system and a semiconductor device using the same, which can be applied to the field of manufacturing semiconductors, such as the field of manufacturing display screens, the field of manufacturing light-emitting diodes (LEDs), the field of wafer packaging, and the like. The utility model can be particularly applied to the ion implantation device of the semiconductor, can detect the vacuum degree in the semiconductor equipment, and avoids the occurrence of software alarm under the condition that the semiconductor equipment is damaged or the vacuum gauge is wrongly read. The utility model improves the production efficiency of the semiconductor equipment.
Referring to FIG. 1, in one embodiment, a semiconductor vacuum gauge system is provided that may include a vacuum gauge 70, an isolation box 90, and a valve 100. Within one vacuum chamber, at least two vacuum gauges 70 may be installed, and the vacuum gauges 70 may be installed on the side walls of the vacuum chamber. For example, when the vacuum chamber is a main chamber 10 (main chamber) or a column chamber (column) 20, the main chamber 10 and the column chamber 20 may be adjacently disposed, the column chamber 20 is used to process an electron beam emitted from the electron chamber 30 (gun), and the processed electron beam is irradiated onto the wafer 110 inside the main chamber 10, so as to perform an ion implantation process on the wafer. At least two vacuum gauges 70 may be installed in the main chamber 10, or at least two vacuum gauges 70 may be installed in the barrel chamber 20. The isolation box 90 may be installed in each vacuum chamber, and the isolation box 90 may be installed in both the main chamber 10 and the barrel chamber 20. The vacuum gauge 70 is detachably attached to the side wall of the isolation box 90. One end of each vacuum gauge 70 for detecting the vacuum degree may be located in the isolation box 90. The isolation box 90 may have a valve 100 mounted thereon, the valve 100 may be located on an outer wall of the isolation box 90, and the valve 100 may place the outer wall of the isolation box 90 in an open or closed state. When the valve 100 is opened, the vacuum gauge 70 in the isolation box 90 can detect the vacuum degree in the vacuum chamber. When the valve 100 is closed, the vacuum gauge 70 inside the isolation box 90 is isolated from the vacuum chamber, the vacuum gauge 70 cannot detect the vacuum degree in the vacuum chamber, and the vacuum gauge 70 can be maintained and replaced in the event that the vacuum gauge 70 is damaged.
Referring to fig. 1, in one embodiment, in the main chamber 10 or the barrel chamber 20, when the vacuum values read by the two vacuum gauges 70 are normal, it is determined that the main chamber 10 is in a normal operation environment. In the case where the two vacuum gauges 70 read the vacuum value abnormally, it is determined that the main chamber 10 is in an abnormal operating environment. Wherein, the vacuum numerical reading is normal, which refers to the reading in the normal working state relative to the main chamber 10 or the barrel chamber 20 of the vacuum gauge system. Abnormal vacuum readings refer to readings in abnormal operating conditions with respect to the main chamber 10 or barrel chamber 20 of the vacuum gauge system. When one vacuum gauge 70 reads the vacuum value normally and the other vacuum gauge 70 reads the vacuum value abnormally, it can be judged that the main chamber 10 is in the normal operation environment, and one vacuum gauge 70 is damaged.
Referring to fig. 1, in one embodiment, in the case that there is an abnormality in the vacuum gauge 70 reading vacuum value in the main chamber 10 or the barrel chamber 20, the faulty vacuum gauge 70 may be replaced. The valve 100 is set to be in a closed state, at this time, the vacuum gauge 70 is isolated by the valve 100, and the inside of the main chamber 10 or the inside of the barrel chamber 20 is still in a vacuum state, so that the vacuum gauge 70 isolated by the valve 100 can be replaced. Typically, one of the vacuum gauges 70 is considered to be replaced. If both vacuum gauges 70 are in normal reading after the replacement of the vacuum gauge 70, then this indicates that a repair has been made. If the reading of one vacuum gauge 70 is normal after the replacement of the vacuum gauge 70, the other vacuum gauge 70 can be replaced if the reading of the other vacuum gauge 70 is abnormal. The utility model can realize the replacement and maintenance of the damaged vacuum gauge 70 without stopping the vacuum machine, can improve the detection precision of the vacuum degree in the semiconductor vacuum machine, and can increase the production efficiency of the vacuum machine.
Referring to fig. 1, in one embodiment, the present utility model provides a semiconductor device that may include a main chamber 10, a barrel chamber 20, an electron gun chamber 30, and a vacuum gauge system. Wherein the main chamber 10 may be connected with the barrel chamber 20, and the barrel chamber 20 may be located between the main chamber 10 and the electron gun chamber 30. The electron gun chamber 30 may be connected to the barrel chamber 20, and the electron beam emitted from the electron gun chamber 30 is irradiated onto the wafer 110 inside the main chamber 10 after being processed by the barrel chamber 20. For example, the electron beam emitted from the electron gun chamber 30 is directed in the vertical direction, and is processed by the barrel chamber 20, and then irradiated onto the wafer 110 inside the main chamber 10. Specifically, the electron gun 31 in the electron gun chamber 30 is for emitting an electron beam, and an angular shift may occur after the electron beam is emitted from the electron gun chamber 30. In the main chamber 10, in order to realize the electron beam vertical irradiation of the wafer 110, a barrel chamber 20 may be provided between the electron gun chamber 30 and the main chamber 10. The barrel chamber 20 may change the trajectory of the electron beam emitted from the electron gun chamber 30 so that the electron beam in the main chamber 10 can vertically irradiate the surface of the wafer 110 to perform the inspection of the wafer 110.
Referring to fig. 1, in one embodiment, the main chamber 10 and the barrel chamber 20 are both provided with a vacuum pump 80, and the vacuum pump 80 can realize a vacuum pumping state of the main chamber 10 and the barrel chamber 20. On the side wall of the main chamber 10, two vacuum gauges 70 may be located at the same side position of the vacuum pump 80. On the side wall of the barrel portion chamber 20, two vacuum gauges 70 may be located at both side positions of the vacuum pump 80, i.e., one vacuum gauge 70 is located at one side position of the vacuum pump 80 and the other vacuum gauge 70 may be located at the other side position of the vacuum pump 80.
Referring to fig. 1, in one embodiment, a semiconductor apparatus may further comprise a wafer handling chamber 40, a wafer loading body 50. The wafer handling chamber 40 is connected to the main chamber 10, for example, the wafer handling chamber (handler) 40 may be located at a side position of the main chamber 10. A wafer loading body (L/P) 50 may be coupled to the wafer handling chamber 40. The wafer handling chamber 40 may be positioned between the main chamber 10 and the wafer loading body 50. The wafer loading body 50 may be used as a window for ingress and egress of wafers 110. The bottom of the wafer loading body 50, the bottom of the wafer handling chamber 40, and the bottom of the main chamber 10 may be on the same plane, and the wafer 110 may be transferred into the main chamber 10 through the wafer loading body 50, the wafer handling chamber 40, and waiting for subsequent inspection. The semiconductor device may further include a Fan Filter Unit (FFU) 60, and the Fan Filter 60 may be connected to the wafer handling chamber 40. The fan filter 60 is a modular terminal blower with filtering efficiency. The blower filter 60 may be installed at a side of the wafer handling chamber 40 near the electron gun chamber 30.
Referring to fig. 2, in one embodiment, the present invention provides a semiconductor device that may include a main chamber 10, a barrel chamber 20, an electron gun chamber 30, a wafer handling chamber 40, a wafer loading body 50, a blower filter 60, a vacuum gauge 70, and a vacuum pump 80. Compared with the technical solution in fig. 1, the semiconductor device in fig. 2 does not include the isolation box 90 and the valve 100, so the semiconductor device in fig. 2 can improve the fault tolerance of the vacuum degree detection in the vacuum chamber, but does not have the convenience of replacing the vacuum gauge 70.
