Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung und ein Verfahren zum Trennen von Werkstoffen, insbesondere von Einkristallen.The invention relates to an apparatus and a method for Separation of materials, especially single crystals.
Ein bekanntes verfahren (siehe z.B. JP-A-07 304 028) zum Trennen von Einkristallen, das
insbesondere zur Erzeugung von Halbleiterwafern eingesetzt
wird, ist das Innenlochtrennen. Fig. 1 ist eine schematische
Darstellung zum Innenlochtrennen in einer Draufsicht gesehen
in Richtung der Mittenlängsachse M eines Einkristalls 1. Wie
aus Fig. 1 ersichtlich ist, ist der Einkristall 1, der im wesentlichen
zylinderförmig mit einer Mittenlängsachse M ausgebildet
ist, auf einer nicht dargestellten Halterung angebracht
und zusammen mit dieser in einer Richtung senkrecht
zur Mittenlängsachse M über eine nicht dargestellte Vorschubeinrichtung
verfahrbar. Zum Trennen bzw. Schneiden der Wafer
ist eine Trennscheibe 2 vorgesehen, die aus einem ein konzentrisches
Innenloch aufweisenden Kernblech 2a besteht, dessen
das Innenloch umgebender Rand 3 mit Diamantkörnern besetzt
ist und somit einen Schneidrand bildet. Die Breite des Kernbleches
zwischen seinem äußeren Rand und seinem inneren Rand
ist größer als der Durchmesser des Einkristalls, weshalb in
der Figur schematisch nur der innere Rand dargestellt ist.
Die Trennscheibe 2 ist um ihre zentrale Achse R über einen
Antrieb in der in Fig. 1 gezeigten Richtung A drehbar. Die
Trennscheibe und der Einkristall sind so zueinander angeordnet,
dass die Rotationsachse R der Trennscheibe 2 und die
Mittenlängsachse M des Einkristalls 1 in einem Abstand parallel
zueinander verlaufen. Ferner ist der Einkristall 1 mittels
der Vorschubeinrichtung senkrecht zu seiner Mittenlängsachse
M in Richtung auf die Trennscheibe 2 hin bewegbar so
daß die Trennscheibe beim Rotieren den Einkristall 1 vollständig
in einer Ebene senkrecht zu seiner Mittenlängsachse M
durchschneidet, und von der Trennscheibe 2 weg in eine Stellung
bewegbar in der ein abgetrennter Wafer entnommen werden
kann.A known method (see e.g. JP-A-07 304 028) for separating single crystals, the
used in particular for the production of semiconductor wafers
is the inner hole cutting. Fig. 1 is a schematic
View of inner hole cutting seen in a top view
in the direction of the central longitudinal axis M of a
Innerhalb des das Innenloch umgebenden Randes 3 der Trennscheibe
2 ist in Drehrichtung A vor der Position P1 des Eintritts
der Trennscheibe in den Einkristall 1, nachfolgend als
eintrittsseitig bezeichnet, eine Kühl-Schmiermittel-Zuführvorrichtung
4 zum Zuführen von Kühl-Schmiermittel auf den
Schneidrand vorgesehen. In Drehrichtung A nach der Position
P2 des Austritts der Trennscheibe aus dem Einkristall 1,
nachfolgend als austrittsseitig bezeichnet, ist eine zweite
Zuführeinrichtung für Kühl-Schmiermittel vorgesehen. Im Betrieb
wird vor dem Eintritt der Trennscheibe 2 in den Einkristall
1 über die Zuführvorrichtung 4 das Kühl-Schmiermittel
auf den Schneidrand bzw. die Trennscheibe 2 aufgebracht, welches
dann durch die Rotation der Trennscheibe 2 in den beim
Trennen entstehenden Trennspalt transportiert wird. Beim Austritt
der Trennscheibe 2 aus dem Einkristall 1 wird durch die
zweite Zuführeinrichtung 5 erneut Kühl-Schmiermittel aufgebracht,
so daß die Reinigung und der Abtransport von abgetragenem
Material durch den Trennspalt gewährleistet ist. Dem
Kühl-Schmiermittel werden Zusätze zugegeben, die die Oberflächenspannung
herabsetzen und damit die Benetzung der Trennscheibe
verbessern. Die bekannte Vorrichtung weist ferner
eine Vorrichtung zur Intervallspülung des Kernbleches und des
Spannsystems auf.Within the
Bei der bekannten Vorrichtung besteht das Problem, daß ein
effektives Reinigen und der Abtransport des abgetragenen Materials
während des Schnittes so viel Kühl-Schmiermittel erfordert,
daß der Trennspalt mit Kühl-Schmiermittel und abgetragenem
Material angefüllt wird. Dadurch kann es bei schmalen
Trennspalten zur Berührung zwischen dem Kernblech der
Trennscheibe 2 und dem Waferabschnitt kommen. Der Waferabschnitt
wird durch Adhäsion an das Kernblech gezogen, und die
Qualität des abgetrennten Wafers wird negativ beeinflußt. Bei
großen Berührungsflächen kann es zum Wegreißen des Wafers
kommen. Ist dagegen die Kühl-Schmiermittelmenge zu niedrig,
reicht die Reinigungs- und Transportwirkung nicht mehr aus.
Außerdem führen oberflächenentspannende Zusätze zu einer besseren
Benetzung des Kernblechs, was die Verdunstung und das
Eintrocknen des Sägeschlammes auf dem Kernblech fördert.In the known device, there is the problem that a
effective cleaning and removal of the removed material
requires so much coolant during the cut
that the separation gap with coolant and lubricant
Stuffed. This can make it narrow
Separating gaps for contact between the core sheet of the
Es ist Aufgabe der Erfindung, eine Vorrichtung und ein Verfahren zum Trennen von Wafern mittels Innenlochtrennen bereitzustellen, welche bzw. welches die oben beschriebenen Nachteile vermeidet. It is an object of the invention, an apparatus and a method to provide for the separation of wafers by means of inner hole cutting, which one or those described above Avoids disadvantages.

1 bzw. ein Verfahren nach Patentanspruch
9. The object is achieved by a device according to

Wie aus den Fig. 2 ersichtlich ist, weist die erfindungsgemäße
Vorrichtung in bekannter Weise die Halterung und die Vorschubeinrichtung
für den Einkristall 1, sowie die Trennscheibe
2 mit dem Kernblech 2a und dem diamantkornbesetzten Rand 3
des Innenloches der Trennscheibe. Im Unterschied zu der bekannten
Vorrichtung weist die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung
eine erste Zuführeinrichtung 10 zum Zuführen von Kühl-Schmiermittel
auf den Rand 3 des Innenloches und auf die
Trennscheibe 2 auf, welche in Rotationsrichtung der Trennscheibe
2 gesehen austrittsseitig an der Position P2 nach dem
Durchtritt.durch den Einkristall 1 vorgesehen ist. Die erste
Zuführeinrichtung 10 für Kühl-Schmiermittel ist beispielsweise
als Düse ausgebildet. Ferner ist eine zweite Zuführeinrichtung
11 für Reinigungsmittel austrittsseitig im Bereich
des Innenlochs vorgesehen. Außerdem ist ebenfalls austrittsseitig
eine Einrichtung 12 zum Zuführen von eines gasförmigen
Mediums, insbesondere von Druckluft, auf die Trennscheibe 2
und insbesondere den Rand 3 vorgesehen.As can be seen from Fig. 2, the inventive
Device in a known manner, the holder and the feed device
for the
Der Betrieb der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung und das erfindungsgemäße
Verfahren ist aus den Figuren 3 bis 6 ersichtlich.
Vor dem Schneid- bzw. Trennvorgang sind die Trennscheibe
2 und der Einkristall 1 voneinander getrennt. Dann wird
der Einkristall 1 relativ zu der Trennscheibe 2 bewegt und
diese tritt rotierend in das Material des Einkristalls 1 zum
Trennen ein. Wie in Fig. 3 gezeigt ist, wird während des
Trennvorganges über die Zuführeinrichtung 10 Kühl-Schmiermittel
mit einem geringen Volumenstrom, d.h. mit geringer Geschwindigkeit
v und geringem Druck p dem Rand 3, der den
Schneidrand bildet, über die Zuführeinrichtung 10 zugeführt. The operation of the device according to the invention and the device according to the invention
The method can be seen from FIGS. 3 to 6.
The cutting disc is before the cutting or
Als Kühl-Schmiermittel wird ein Kühl-Schmiermittel mit einem
Zusatz verwendet, der die Oberflächenspannung σ des Kühl-Schmiermittels
erhöht und somit die Benetzung des Kernbleches
2a verschlechtert. Dadurch kommt es zu einer schlechten Benetzung
des Kernblechs 2a der Trennscheibe 2, und es bilden
sich Tröpfchen 20 des Kühl-Schmiermittels an der Oberfläche
des Kernbleches 2a. Ebenfalls während des Trennvorganges
wird, wie in Fig. 4 gezeigt ist, Druckluft über die Druckluftquelle
12 auf den Rand 3 geblasen, wodurch die schlechte
Benetzung ausgeglichen wird. Die Druckluft trägt weiterhin
zur Bildung von Tröpfchen 20 und zur Verteilung derselben
bei. Wie in Fig. 5 gezeigt ist, dringt während des Trennvorgangs
die Trennscheibe 2 mit dem Rand 3 und den auf der Oberfläche
des Kernblechs 2a entstandenen Tröpfchen 20 des Kühl-Schmiermittels
in den Einkristall 1 zum Abtrennen eines Waferabschnitts
1a ein. Es wird ständig Luft und Kühl-Schmiermittel
geringen Drucks p zugeführt. Die Tröpfchen 20 des
Kühl-Schmiermittels auf dem Kernblech 2a nehmen für die Zeit
des Schnittes das abgetragene Material auf und verteilen es
auf dem Kernblech, ohne daß es zu einem Eintrocknen oder zu
einer Berührung des Wafers kommt.A cooling lubricant with a
Additive that uses the surface tension σ of the coolant-lubricant
increases and thus the wetting of the
Nach dem Trennvorgang wird der Einkristall 1 und der abgetrennte
Wafer über die Vorschubeinrichtung von der Trennscheibe
2 wegbewegt, so daß Trennscheibe und Einkristall bzw.
der getrennte Wafer voneinander getrennt sind, wie in Fig. 6
gezeigt ist. Jetzt wird die Reinigung und der Abtransport des
auf dem Kernblech aufgestauten und in den Tröpfchen 20 eingeschlossenen
Materials durchgeführt, indem Druckluft mit hohem
Druck p über die Zuführeinrichtung 12 zugeführt wird und
gleichzeitig Reinigungsmittel in ausreichender Menge und mit
größerer Geschwindigkeit v über die Zuführeinrichtung 11 zugeführt
wird. After the separation process, the
Somit ist das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren ein zweistufiges Verfahren, bei dem während des Trennvorgangs die Kühlung des Trennwerkzeugs, das Verwirbeln des Kühlmittels, das Einschließen des abgetragenen Materials in die Kühl-Schmiermitteltröpfchen und das Verteilen und Speichern der Kühl-Schmiermitteltröpfchen mit dem abgetragenen Material unter Einwirkung der Fliehkraft erfolgt. In einer zweiten Stufe wird, nachdem der Einkristall von der Trennscheibe weggefahren ist, die Reinigung und der Abtransport abgetragenen Materials über hohen Luftdruck und ausreichend Kühl-Schmiermittelzufuhr vorgenommen. Das in der zweiten Stufe verwendete Reinigungsmittel kann identisch mit dem Kühl-Schmiermittel sein, es kann jedoch auch eine andere Substanz, wie z.B. Wasser sein. Somit können Kühl-Schmiermittel und Reinigungsmittel unterschiedliche Eigenschaften haben.The method according to the invention is thus a two-stage process Process in which the cooling of the Separating tool, swirling the coolant, trapping of the removed material into the coolant lubricant droplets and distributing and storing the coolant lubricant droplets with the removed material below Centrifugal force acts. In a second stage after the single crystal is moved away from the cutting disc is the cleaning and the removal of worn material over high air pressure and sufficient cooling lubricant supply performed. The one used in the second stage Detergent can be identical to the coolant-lubricant but it can also be another substance, e.g. water his. Thus, coolants and lubricants have different properties.
Bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren wird zum Kühlen und Schmieren sehr viel weniger Kühl-Schmiermittel benötigt als zum Reinigen und Abtransport des abgetragenen Materials. Ein qualitativ hochwertiger Schnitt läßt sich nur mit einer solch geringen Kühl-Schmiermittelmenge durchführen. Während des eigentlichen Trennvorganges wird die Kühl-Schmiermittelmenge auf die minimal erforderliche Menge eingestellt, um die Kühlung und Schmierung zu garantieren. Der Trennspalt ist frei und die Berührung zwischen Kernblech und Waferabschnitt wird vermieden. Bei der Reinigung ist jedoch ein wesentlich höherer Volumenstrom optimal. Diese Erfordernisse widersprechen sich. Die Kühlung und Reinigung wird daher zeitlich voneinander getrennt, da für beide Schritte unterschiedliche Volumenströme optimal sind. In the method according to the invention, cooling and Lubrication requires much less cooling lubricant than for cleaning and removing the removed material. On high quality cut can only be done with such a Apply a small amount of coolant and lubricant. During the actual Separation process is the amount of coolant-lubricant set to the minimum required amount to cool and guarantee lubrication. The separation gap is free and the contact between the core sheet and the wafer section becomes avoided. However, when cleaning is a much higher one Volume flow optimal. These requirements contradict yourself. The cooling and cleaning are therefore different from each other separated, because different volume flows for both steps are optimal.
Anstelle der Zuführung von Druckluft ist es auch möglich ein anderes Gas, z.B. Stickstoff zuzuführen.Instead of supplying compressed air, it is also possible to use a other gas, e.g. Add nitrogen.
In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist, wie in Fig. 2 gezeigt
ist, zur Zuführung von Kühl-Schmiermittel zu der Zuführeinrichtung
10, die die geringe Menge an Kühl-Schmiermittel
während des Trennvorgangs abgibt, ein Behälter 30 vorgesehen
der sich in Arbeitsstellung in konstantem Abstand
oberhalb der Zuführeinrichtung 10 befindet und der über eine
Leitung 31 mit dieser verbunden ist. In dem Behälter befindet
sich Kühl-Schmiermittel, welches der Zuführeinrichtung 10
über die Leitung nur unter dem Einfluß der Gravitation bzw.
dem hydrostatischen Druck zugeführt wird. Luftblasen in der
Leitung werden nach oben abgeführt. Somit wird gewährleistet,
dass auch bei geringen zuzuführenden Mengen an Kühl-Schmiermittel
die konstante und blasenfreie Zufuhr gewährleistet
ist.In a preferred embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2
is for supplying cooling lubricant to the
Die Erfindung ist zum Trennen verschiedenster Werkstoffe geeignet, z.B. für optische Gläser, Kunststoffe und andere.The invention is suitable for cutting a wide variety of materials, e.g. for optical glasses, plastics and others.
