Definitions
- the invention relates to a vacuum coating system for vapor deposition processes, in particular for coatings of glassy, glass-ceramic or ceramic materials, which is suitable for clean room technologies.
- Vapor deposition processes (deposition of layers from the vapor phase) are essential components for the production of modern products in many industries.
- the development, for example, in optics, optoelectronics or semiconductor technology is driven by ever smaller structures, higher
- Layers of inorganic, in particular glass-like, glass-ceramic or ceramic materials are used for a wide variety of applications.
- Coating quality but mainly dictated by the thermal stability of the substrate.
- Wafers that are temperature-sensitive are primarily processes in question, which allow a coating below 120 0 C. Suitable processes for coating temperature-sensitive substrates with a glass or glass ceramic layer prove to be PVD processes, in particular electron beam evaporation, since the glassy, glass ceramic or ceramic layers evaporate at high coating rates and high purity and can be deposited as glassy multicomponent layers.
- Vapor phase are deposited on substrates, wherein the vacuum coating chamber has a first opening, the first opening is connected via a separately evacuated vacuum lock chamber with a clean room, the vacuum lock chamber transport means for supplying Substrates in the vacuum coating chamber and for removing substrates from the vacuum coating chamber and the vacuum coating chamber has a second opening, which connects the vacuum coating chamber with a gray space separated from the clean room.
- the separately evacuated vacuum lock chamber allows the substrate change without venting and re-evacuation of the vacuum coating chamber.
- load lock allows the substrate change without venting and re-evacuation of the vacuum coating chamber.
- the supply and removal of the substrates can be done directly from / to a clean room, since the plant so can be operated that the vacuum coating chamber is at any time in direct connection to the clean room and thus contamination is avoided.
- the coating system according to the invention is not limited to any particular coating process, it is suitable both for PVD processes (physical vapor deposition) and for CVD processes (chemical vapor deposition).
- Electron beam evaporation, thermal evaporation or pulsed plasma ion beam evaporation application Electron beam evaporation, thermal evaporation or pulsed plasma ion beam evaporation application.
- the vacuum coating chamber may preferably have a
- Shielding device or lining which the vacuum chamber inner walls and / or the. arranged in the chamber parts of the system protects against unwanted deposits of the layer starting material and prevents spalling of particles or tinsel.
- Typical layer thicknesses for hermetic encapsulation or the microstructuring of semiconductors, optical microcomponents, MEMS, optoelectronic components etc. with vitreous, glass ceramic or ceramic layers lie in ranges between 0.01 ⁇ m to 100 ⁇ m. As a result, correspondingly "thick" and brittle, glassy deposit layers are formed on the shielding device.
- the shielding device consists of a material which has approximately the same coefficient of expansion as the layer material.
- the shielding device consists of a glassy, glass-ceramic or ceramic material, in particular of the same material as the layer to be applied, since then both the shielding device and the layer have approximately the same, preferably the same coefficient of expansion.
- the shielding device In order to protect both the chamber inner walls as well as arranged in the chamber components such as substrate holder, shutter, etc., it is advantageous to make the shielding device in several parts.
- the chamber inner walls may be protected by glass panel seals, the substrate holder by a glass cover with corresponding recesses for the substrate, and other components by customized glass covers. Since the shielding device prevents contamination of the vacuum coating chamber, the number of possible coating operations, without opening the vacuum coating chamber, can still be increased if, for example, the substrate change also takes place under vacuum conditions. It can be seen that this increases the efficiency of the system considerably.
- the substrate holder is designed for receiving a plurality of substrates, in particular for receiving a plurality of wafer panes to be coated.
- the efficiency of the system can also be increased.
- To carry out coating system preferably with a plurality of vacuum coating chambers. These are connected to the clean room, each with a first opening via a respective separately evacuated vacuum lock chamber and connected via a respective second opening with the gray space area separated from the clean room. This allows substrates to be transported within a clean room from one to another vacuum coating chamber and a flexible system concept can be realized.
- the coating system according to the invention is particularly suitable for the efficient coating of wafers for producing optical, microelectronic and optoelectronic components under clean room requirements.
- the coating for the production of these components comprises, for example, an encapsulation, the chip-size packaging, the wafer-level packaging, etc., with vitreous, glass-ceramic and / or ceramic layers, which function, for example, as passivation layers and diffusion barriers.
- the reinraumstory coating system according to the invention is not limited to these applications.
- Fig. 1 is a schematic representation of a coating system
- Fig. 2 is a schematic representation of a substrate holder for wafer slices
- the evaporation of the layer starting material in the form of a glass target from SCHOTT glass no. 8329 or SCHOTT glass no. G018-189 takes place in the vacuum coating chamber (2) of the clean roomable coating system (1) shown in Fig.l by an electron beam, wherein a Separation of the glass vapor is carried out on the substrate and additional the condensed layer on the substrate surface by plasma ion bombardment (PIAD) is compressed.
- PIAD plasma ion bombardment
- the coating installation (1) shown in Fig.l consists of a vacuum coating chamber (2), a vacuum lock chamber (3) and the vacuum pump (12).
- the first opening (5) of the vacuum coating chamber (2) connects the vacuum coating chamber (2) with the vacuum lock chamber (3), wherein for separate, separate evacuation of the two chambers (2, 3) a vacuum flap in the first opening (5) is arranged.
- a handler (7) for transporting and changing the substrates.
- the vacuum lock chamber (3) via a further vacuum flap (6) to the clean room apparently.
- the second opening (4) of the vacuum coating installation (2) is a chamber door opening towards the gray room (8).
- the clean room (9) and the gray room (8) are separate room areas.
- the handler (7) can introduce the wafer discs (12) into the vacuum coating chamber (2) and arrange them on the substrate holder (10).
- Wafer discs (12) circular recesses (13) having an annular bearing surface (14) on which the wafer discs (12) are placed on.
- the handler (7) moves into the vacuum lock chamber (3) back and there is the appropriate coating of the wafer wafers (12), as described above.
- the handler (7) removes the wafer discs (12) from the substrate holder (10) and transports them back into the vacuum lock chamber (3).
- the vacuum flap of the first opening (5) is closed and the vacuum lock chamber (3) vented. After opening the vacuum flap (6), the finished coated wafer discs (12) can be removed and the handler (7) can be re-equipped.
- the vacuum coating chamber (2) remains evacuated during the substrate change and to operating temperature.
- the number of chips, which can be at least coated, for example, until consumption of a target and thus without aeration and renewed evacuation of the vacuum coating chamber (2) depends on the number and size of the wafer wafers (12) coated in a coating process. from the chip size and the layer thickness. For example, 8 wafer disks with a diameter of 100 mm could also be arranged on the substrate holder (10) in the coating installation (1). With chip sizes of 2mm * 2mm and a layer thickness of 10 ⁇ m, it is possible to coat approx. 5,000 chips with one target.
- the Vacuum Coating Chamber (2) must be periodically cleaned and / or a new target must be provided. This is done with closed vacuum lock chamber (3) from the gray room (8), so that any contact with the substrates and the clean room (9) is prevented.
- the vacuum coating chamber (2) is aerated for this purpose. By opening the chamber door, a cleaning and / or a target change over the second opening (4) from the gray room (8) made. Subsequently, the vacuum coating chamber (2) is closed again and evacuated and a renewed coating of substrates can take place.
- Target change over the second opening (4) make.
- a target change can be carried out while maintaining the vacuum.
- the efficiency of the system can be further increased because the vacuum coating chamber (2) is only open for maintenance purposes. This is possible in particular when the vacuum coating chamber (2) additionally has a shielding device. As a result, the maintenance intervals for the vacuum coating chamber (2) can be further increased and the efficiency increased considerably.
