Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for polishing Semiconductor wafers on a front side of a carrier plate are fixed and with a polishing pot Side surface against a polishing plate covered with a polishing cloth pressed and polished with a certain polishing pressure will.
  • the invention also relates to a device which is suitable for carrying out the method.
  • planarization of a semiconductor wafer using a chemo-mechanical Polishing is an important processing step in the process flow for the production of a flat, defect-free and smooth semiconductor wafer.
  • This polishing step provides the final form in many production processes and thus decisively determining the surface properties Step before reusing the semiconductor wafer as raw material for the production of electrical, electronic and microelectronic components.
  • Objectives of Polishing processes are particularly high Flatness and parallelism of the two disc sides, the removal pretreatment of damaged surface layers ("damage removal") and the reduction of the microroughness of the Semiconductor wafer.
  • the present invention relates to single-sided polishing a group of several semiconductor wafers ("single side batch polishing ").
  • the semiconductor wafers are at this procedure with one side on the front of one Carrier plate mounted by between the side and the Carrier plate a positive and non-positive connection, for example by adhesion, gluing, kitten or vacuum application, will be produced.
  • the semiconductor wafers mounted on the support plate so that it is a pattern of concentric rings. After assembly the free sides of the disc with the addition of a polishing agent against a polishing plate over which a polishing cloth is stretched is pressed and polished with a certain polishing pressure.
  • polishing plate The carrier plate and the polishing plate are usually used rotated at different speeds.
  • the necessary Polishing printing is done by a pressure stamp, which follows Polishing pot ("polishing head") is called on the back transferred to the carrier plate.
  • Polishing pot Polishing pot
  • a variety of used Polishing machines are designed to span multiple Have polishing pots and, accordingly, several carrier plates be able to record.
  • the polishing pressure therefore often does not work evenly on the semiconductor wafer because the carrier plate radially deformed during polishing by its own weight is or a certain, production-related radial Has wedges. Differences can occur with identical polishing pots occur in the transfer of the polishing pressure so that also the influence of the polishing pot used on the polishing result noticeable. Sometimes there is an emerging one Wear of the polishing cloth cause that the wheel geometry in the course of several polishing runs worsened.
  • the present invention solves the problem in polishing of semiconductor wafers with a one-side polishing machine to achieve improved uniformity of the polishing removal, so that in particular the wedge shape of the polished semiconductor wafers is low.
  • the success of the invention is due to the fact that arranged between the polishing pot and the support plate Pressure chambers local pressure differences, for example as a result of bumps on the back of the carrier plate or result in an elastic deformation of the carrier plate would have compensated.
  • the one pressurized Pressure chamber transmitted to the support plate pressure has at any point in the circumferential direction on the carrier plate resting, elastic support surface the same Value.
  • a particular advantage of the invention results from that the pressure chambers that are pressurized preferably selected automatically and automatically with Pressure. Individual, depending on the polishing result impacting properties of the carrier plates used and used polishing pots can with this selection be taken into account.
  • Figure 1 is a preferred embodiment of the claimed device shown. They are just such Features shown that are necessary to describe the invention are.
  • Figures 2a, 2b and 3a, 3b schematically show that Principle of minimizing the wedge when polishing semiconductor wafers according to the invention.

  • the level of pressure in on Pressure chambers are preferably chosen so that the polishing pot under no circumstances during the polishing of the semiconductor wafers overcome the gap and damage the carrier plate can. Lowering the polishing pot is particularly preferred to prevent up to the carrier plate by a mechanical barrier. In the exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 1, this is Purpose a stopper 15 integrated in the polishing pot, by the Never effect the height of the gap 7 below a minimum value can sink. Mechanical damage to the carrier plate, which can cause a deterioration in the polishing result, this is safely avoided.

Is particularly preferred it to continue to provide a host computer 9, the switching on and switching off the pressure chambers controls fully automatically.
  • This master computer is used after a polishing run determined values of the disk geometry, for example with the determined wedge values. Calculated from this the number and position of the pressure chambers to be switched on and causes that the corresponding pressure chambers are switched on automatically or be switched off. It is preferred that the Master computer in the calculation also the influence on the The polishing result is taken into account by the carrier plate used and the polishing pot used in each case by manufacturing-related Peculiarities.
  • An identification of the for Coming carrier plates and polishing pots can be used, for example by means of a barcode recognition.

  • the control is done automatically by the master computer 9, which is connected to a measuring device 16.
  • the host computer continuously records the actual height of the gap 7 and compares it this with the selected target distance. Is the actual height outside of specified lower and upper limit values with the help of the host computer, the pressure in the pressure chambers 4 changed, so that the polishing pot is raised or lowered until the actual height of the gap 7 in the desired tolerance range lies. Preferred values for the upper and lower limits the tolerance range is 4.2 mm or 3.8 mm.
