Definitions
- the invention relates to a device for partially or totally separating a stacked structure, and a method using this device.
- a method for measuring bonding energy has been described in 1988 in [1] or in US 2005/009297 .
- This method involves inserting a razor blade between two plates of a bonded structure, the blade being introduced by translation towards the center of the structure at the bonding interface and parallel to the plane of the bonding interface .
- this technique of inserting a blade into a structure was only used to measure the bonding energy and only caused a partial opening of the bonded structure over a certain length L.
- several blades can be inserted simultaneously radially in the plane of the bonding interface of the bonded structures (see document [2] ). By using several blades, it is possible to initiate separations of the bonded structure from several peripheral zones, these separations joining in the central zone to obtain a total separation of the bonded structure.
- the object of the invention is to provide a device and a method for separating a stack having a weakened zone, for example a bonded structure consisting of two layers around a bonding interface or a structure having a weakened zone, obtained for example by implantation of gaseous species (for example hydrogen), which make it possible to separate this stack in two distinct layers on either side of the weakened zone while decreasing the introduction of impurities and the appearance of scratches on the faces of said separated layers.
- gaseous species for example hydrogen
- the relative movement is an essentially tangential movement.
- the separator and the stack are moved relatively so that the stack can, for example, progress along the perimeter of the separator at the weakened zone.
- the perimeter of the separator corresponds to the circumference of the separator if the separator has a circumference of circular shape.
- the separator is configured so that the distance between the first point of contact and the second point of contact increases as the separator progresses along the perimeter of the stack so as to move the two parts apart. one of the other.
- the separation device makes it possible to induce a separation of a stacked structure from the peripheral zone of the stacked structure.
- the separation is ensured by a gradual increase in the distance of the contact points, these contact points remaining in the peripheral zone of the stack, due to the relative movement between the structure and the separator.
- the relative movement between the structure and the separator is essentially tangential.
- peripheral zone is meant an area at the edge of the stacked structure, such as, for example, the zone of the plate edge chamfers, the zone where the plates have been cut off, the zone in which no further process is to be envisaged.
- the area device is usually referred to as an exclusion zone, as opposed to the active area in which the integrated circuits are made.
- the insertion zone is adapted to the insertion of the separator (for example a notch), that is to say that it allows the insertion of the separator.
- the separator for example a notch
- it consists of the two chamfers of the glued plates to be separated at the level of this bonding interface or of a weakened zone situated in the vicinity of this bonding interface.
- the relative movement of the separator relative to the stack is obtained by rotation of the separator on itself.
- the relative movement of the separator with respect to the stack is obtained by rotating the stack around the separator.
- the relative movement of the separator relative to the stack is further obtained by rotating the stack on itself.
- the relative movement of the separator relative to the stack is further obtained by rotating the separator around the stack.
- the relative movement of the separator with respect to the stack is further obtained by placing the separator in translation tangentially to the stack.
- the relative movement of the separator with respect to the stack is obtained by translation of the stack along the separator.
- the relative movement of the separator relative to the stack is further obtained by rotating the stack on itself.
- the relative movement of the separator relative to the stack is further obtained by rotation of the separator around the stack.
- the separator comprises an angled edge portion whose angle is increasing along at least part of its periphery, this angular edge portion being intended to come into contact with the substrate during the relative motion.
- the separator comprises a cone, truncated or not, the generatrix of said cone being able to come into contact with the stack at the first point of contact and the base of said cone being able to come into contact stacking at the second point of contact.
- the generatrix of the cone comes into contact with the first part of the stack and the base of said cone comes into contact with the second part of the stack.
- the separator comprises two cones, truncated or not, superposed according to their bases, the generatrix of the first cone being able to come into contact with the stack at the first point of contact and the generatrix of the second cone being adapted to come into contact with the stack at the second point of contact.
- the generatrix of the first cone comes into contact with the first part of the stack and the generatrix of the second cone comes into contact with the second part of the stack.
- the axes of the two cones are offset relative to each other.
- the axes of the two cones are inclined relative to each other.
- the separator comprises a prism, whose base is able to come into contact with the stack at the first point of contact and one of the faces is able to come into contact with the stack at the level of the second point of contact, the base and said face forming an acute angle, truncated or not.
- the base of the prism comes into contact with the first part of the stack and the face of the prism forming an acute angle with the base comes into contact with the second part of the stack.
- the separator comprises two prisms, each prism having a base and a face, the base and said face forming an acute angle, truncated or not, and the prisms being superimposed according to their bases, the faces of the two prisms being meant to come in contact respectively with the first and second parts of the stack.
- the weakened zone is a bonding interface, a plane of weakness or an excessive stress plane.
- the insertion zone is a hollow zone.
- the first and second parts are layers.
- the separation obtained thanks to the device is complete or partial.
- the relative movement is an essentially tangential movement.
- the relative movement of the separator and the stack is obtained by rotation of the separator on itself.
- the relative movement of the separator and the stack is further obtained by rotation of the stack around the separator.
- the relative movement of the separator and the stack is further obtained by rotation of the stack on itself.
- the relative movement of the separator and the stack is further obtained by rotation of the separator around the stack.
- the relative movement of the separator and the stack is further obtained by translating the separator tangentially to the stack.
- the relative movement of the separator and the stack is further obtained by translation of the stack along the separator.
- the relative movement of the separator and the stack is further obtained by rotation of the stack on itself.
- the relative movement of the separator and the stack is further obtained by rotation of the separator around the stack.
- the separator is configured such that the distance between the first point of contact and the second point of contact increases during the relative movement of the stack with respect to the separator.
- the separator is a separator of the separation device described above.
- the increase in said distance between the first point of contact and the second point of contact is obtained by a system that dynamically adapts said distance on the separator.
- the system can for example, if the separator comes into contact with the stack at two of these walls, move these walls away from each other over time, advantageously progressive over time.
- steps a) and b) of the method are repeated N times (N ⁇ 2), each time using a different separator having a distance between the first and the second contact points of the separator with the first one. and the second portions of the maximum stack greater than the maximum distance of the previously used separator.
- the separation is thus effected by the successive insertion of separators having a maximum distance between two points of contact of the separator with the stack of larger and larger.
- a particular case of this second embodiment consists in using separators whose maximum distance is constant (that is to say that it does not evolve during the relative movement of the separator and the stack, once the contact obtained).
- separators will be chosen so the angle between the base and the generator is bigger and bigger.
- the distance between the first and the second contact point of the separator with the first and the second part of the stack, respectively, is constant for each separator.
- the separation device makes it possible to dissociate layers of a stacked structure.
- the separation of the stack into two distinct parts can be performed at a bonding interface between two layers, at a plane corresponding to a plane of weakness or at a zone of excessive stress of the structure. stacked.
- the bonding interface corresponds to a plane of weak bonds between two bonded layers, for example, by molecular adhesion.
- these are plans other or smaller than the bonding interfaces, such as, for example, zones obtained by implantation of gaseous species in a substrate, an interface a deposited layer, a zone of different nature or morphology (for example a buried zone of porous oxide or silicon) or areas subjected to high stresses.
- the device according to the invention comprises at least one separator.
- the separator may be any body capable of inducing an increase in the spacing between the points of contact of this separator with the stack to be dissociated, this contact being limited to the peripheral area of the stack.
- the separator will be formed of two walls that meet to form a protruding part (acute angle) having a ridge .
- the edge of the separator may for example be circular or rectilinear. In a variant, this edge may be truncated. By “truncated” is meant truncated by a plane or curved surface.
- any body having a beveled portion may be used in a straight line, for example a prism.
- the separator may be a prism whose base b1 and face a1 facing the base are oriented so as to form an acute angle ⁇ and join together forming a rectilinear edge 9 ( figure 1 ).
- the end of the prism (that is, the part where the base and the face meet to form an acute angle) can also be truncated.
- the separator can also be formed by the association of two superimposed prisms according to their respective bases b1 and b2.
- FIG 2 an example of two superimposed prisms having their truncated end and identical angles ⁇ 1 and ⁇ 2 is illustrated.
- the ends have been truncated in a plane, but they could also have been truncated along a curved surface.
- the angles ⁇ 1 and ⁇ 2 could have been different.
- the ridge can also have other shapes.
- the separator may be a prism in which the base b1 and the face a1 facing the base meet at a vertex to form an acute angle ( figure 3 ).
- the base b1 and the face a1 facing the base can also get closer to each other, without joining each other ( figure 4 ).
- the axis of rotation of the separator is excentered with respect to its axis of symmetry, in the case where the separator is intended to be rotated, and / or if the structure to be separated is circular in shape and is intended to be rotated, the axis of rotation of the structure is excentered with respect to its axis of symmetry.
- the separator can be made by inclining the axes 2 of two cones with an angle ⁇ of approximately 20 ° with respect to one another (cf. figure 5 ). It is also possible to vary the angle of the generator 1 relative to the axis 2 of each of the cones; for example, this angle can be 10 °, 20 °, 30 °, 45 ° or 60 °.
- the separator has different heights h 1 , h 2 , h 3 , h 4 , h 5 respectively for a given depth p , as illustrated in the figure 6 , where the separator is constituted by a single cone.
- the separator is constituted by two cones
- the angles of the generatrices of the two cones can be chosen identical or different.
- the separator and the stacked structure to be disassociated must be moved relative to each other substantially tangentially to the stacked structure so that the distance between the points of contact between the separator and the layers of the stack varies from way to increase during the movement.
- the increase is gradual. This relative movement can be obtained in different ways by movement of the separator and / or the structure.
- the separator 14 can be translated in a tangential direction 11 to the stacked structure ( figure 7 ) to induce the spacing of the contact points.
- the separator 14 remains fixed, while the stack 5 performs a translation movement 12 along the edge 19 ( figure 8 ) or a combination of these two translational movements.
- the stacked structure to be separated may be composed of two silicon plates 100 mm in diameter and 525 micrometers thick.
- the two silicon wafers are glued together by gluing molecular, technique well known to those skilled in the art: the two surfaces are prepared to be hydrophilic and clean, then the two plates are glued at room temperature. This gives a bonding energy of the order of 0.8 J / m 2 after heat treatment at 500 ° C for two hours.
- the plates have at the periphery a chamfer 10 (i.e., a zone of reduced thickness). After bonding, these chamfers generate at the periphery of structure at the bonding interface a non-bonded zone 10, which will facilitate the subsequent insertion of the separator between the two plates.
- a chamfer 10 i.e., a zone of reduced thickness
- the separator is made by joining two cones according to their bases, the two cones having their axes inclined relative to each other by an angle of about 20 °.
- the vertices of the cones have been truncated.
- variable separation height As the axes of the two cones are inclined, we obtain a variable separation height.
- the advantage of having a variable separation height is that a gradual and tangential effect of separation of the two plates is obtained.
- the separation height of the plates of the stacked structure varies from a few microns to about 3 mm, in the peripheral zone of the stack.
- the separator 4 is chosen to rotate the separator 4 on itself about its axis of rotation 6.
- the rotation of the separator is performed slowly.
- rotational speeds of 0.1, 1, 2, or 5 revolutions per hour.
- the rotation of the separator (as well as the possible rotation of the stack) can be performed electrically, automatically, progressively, in a discrete or continuous mode.
- the stacked structure to be separated can be driven in a rotational movement about the axis of the separator.
- the separator can for example rotate in steps of one tenth (1/10 th) of turn and between each step, rotating the structure itself of at least one full turn.
- the separator 4 is brought into contact (101, 102) with the edges of each of the two plates of the structure 5 to be separated, at the level of the unbonded zone (forming a zone 10 adapted to the insertion of the blade).
- This unglued zone is in the vicinity of the bonding interface 8, corresponding in this case to the weakened zone where it is desired to obtain a separation ( figures 17 and 18 ).
- the separation height h 1 is less than the height of separation h 2 diametrically opposite: when the separator has performed a half-turn, the separation height will have changed and the pressure exerted on the walls at the contact points 101 and 102 will have increased as well.
- the contacting requires a radial relative movement between the structure and the separator but which is limited to the structure edge.
- the peripheral area in which there is a contact (101, 102) between the tangential progressively separating separator and each of the plates of the bonded structure is located about 49 mm from the center of the bonded structure for 100 mm diameter structures.
- the separation height imposed on the periphery of plates bonded by the rotation of the separator is sufficient to induce complete separation of the stacked structure.
- the structure to be separated is placed on a holding means, for example a plate, which allows a rotation of the structure about its axis, continuous or not, in a single direction or allowing an alternation of directions , simultaneous or not with respect to the rotation of the separator.
- the speed of rotation can be constant or variable.
- the rotational speed of the platen is continuous and simultaneous with the separator. It can be 10 turns per hour, 5 turns per hour, 1 turn per hour or 0.1 turn per hour.
- the rotation of the plate is in the same direction and at the same speed as the rotation of the separator.
- the stacked structure to be separated may be composed of two silicon plates 100 mm in diameter and 525 micrometers thick.
- both surfaces of the adhesive plates were prepared to be hydrophilic and compatible with subsequent molecular bonding.
- the two plates were bonded and thermally treated at 200 ° C. for two hours to obtain, for example, a bonding energy of the order of 0.6 J / m 2 .
- the separator was made by joining, according to their bases, two truncated coaxial cones. The tips of the cones have been truncated so that the separator is less cumbersome. In this example, we chose a generator angle of 45 °.
- the separator as well as the stacked structure are rotated on themselves.
- the separator is brought into contact with the edges of each of the two plates of the structure to be separated, in the zone where these plates have a chamfer.
- the separator and the stacked structure are put in rotation on themselves in the same direction or opposite directions.
- the rotation of the separator is carried out slowly, for example, with rotation speeds of 5 revolutions per hour, 2 revolutions per hour, 1 revolution per hour or 0.1 revolution per hour.
- the separation height of the separator will gradually change as the separator rotates.
- the separator is moved so that the separation height increases.
- it is chosen to place the separator in the chamfer at the level where the separator has a minimum separation height.
- the separation height of the plates of the stacked structure can vary from a few microns to about 1.5 mm, in the peripheral zone of the structure.
- Such a separation height imposed on the periphery of the bonded plates is sufficient to induce complete separation of the stacked structure.
- the relative movement of the separator and the structure has a radial component, but remains less than 2 times the difference between the axis of rotation of the separator and the axis of the cones, or even less if the separator performs less than one revolution , which is small compared to the dimensions of the structure. Most of the relative movement remains tangential.
- the stacked structure to be separated is composed of two silicon plates assembled by molecular bonding according to a bonding interface 18. Before bonding, one of the two plates has undergone a hydrogen implantation to create a buried fragile zone microcavities 22, for example at 1 ⁇ m from its surface (see FIG. figure 19 ). It is at the level of this buried fragile zone that the separation must take place.
- a heat treatment can be performed after bonding to strengthen the bonding and promote the coalescence of microcavities.
- the separator according to the invention is introduced at the bonding interface, in the chamfer zone 10 of the plates close to the fragile zone comprising microcavities 22.
- the separation then takes place for example by rotating the separator along a fracture line 20, which as shown in FIG. figure 19 , is carried out in the plane comprising the microcavities 22 and starts from the chamfer zone 10 (the fracture line 20 is represented by a dashed line).
- the device and the separation method according to the invention make it possible, while avoiding the radial introduction of a blade within a stack, to avoid introducing impurities onto the surfaces of the separated plates and / or to scratch these surfaces, while allowing to induce the separation of stacked structures from the periphery of the stack.
- the area of the usable area of the plates thus separated is therefore much larger than that obtained by separation according to the previous devices, which require the radial introduction of a blade.
- the separator may be a body having two walls that meet along a straight edge. It may be for example a blade type cutter blade.
- a fixed-form separator has been used, but it would of course be possible to use a separator whose shape varies over time, so as to dynamically adapt the distance between the points of contact of this separator with the stacking. It could be a conical separator whose angle between the generator and the base can vary dynamically, for example under the effect of pneumatic forces.
- separators may be of identical shape or not, rotating or not, at variable speeds and directions of rotation.

- Verfahren zum Trennen eines Stapels (5) in zwei verschiedene Teile, wobei der genannte Stapel einen ersten Teil, einen zweiten Teil und eine geschwächte Zone zwischen dem ersten und dem zweiten Teil sowie und eine Einführungszone umfasst, die sich an der Peripherie des Stapels in Höhe oder in der Nähe der geschwächten Zone befindet und sich über die Gesamtheit oder einen Teil der Peripherie des Stapels erstreckt,
wobei das genannte Verfahren die folgenden Schritte umfasst:a) Bereitstellen wenigstens eines Trennelements (4, 14) mit einem abgewinkelten Randteil, dessen Dinkel längs wenigstens eines Teils seiner Peripherie zunimmt,b) Einführen des angewinkelten Randteils des genannten wenigstens einen Trennelements (4, 14) in die Eindringzone gemäß einer Distanz, Eindringdistanz genannt, bis das Trennelement Kontakt hat mit wenigstens dem ersten Teil des Stapels (5) in Höhe eines ersten Kontaktpunkts und dem zweiten Teil des Stapels (5) in Höhe eines zweiten Kontaktpunkts,c) Erzeugen einer Relativbewegung zwischen dem Trennelement und dem Stapel, so dass der mit zunehmendem Dinkel angewinkelte Randteil des Trennelements während der Relativbewegung in Kontakt bleibt mit dem Substrat, um den zwischen dem ersten und dem zweiten Kontaktpunkt des Trennelemente existierenden Abstand zu jeweils dem ersten und dem zweiten Teil des Stapels im Laufe der Relativbewegung zu vergrößert, so dass sich die genannten Teile voneinander entfernen, während die Eindringdistanz im Wesentlichen konstant bleibt und dabei der erste und der zweite Kontaktpunkt im Laufe der Relativbewegung an der Peripherie des Stapels bleiben. - Trennverfahren nach Anspruch 12, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass die Relativbewegung eine im Wesentlichen tangentiale Bewegung ist.
- Trennverfahren nach Anspruch 12 oder 13, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass die Relativbewegung des Trennelements und des Stapels durch Rotation des Trennelements (4, 14) um sich selbst und/oder durch Rotation des Stapels (5) um sich selbst erzeugt wird.
- Trennverfahren nach Anspruch 12 bis 14, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass die Relativbewegung des Trennelements und des Stapels durch Rotation des Stapels (5) um das Trennelemente (4, 14) herum und/oder durch Rotation des Trennelements (4, 14) um den Stapel (5) herum erzeugt wird.
- Trennverfahren nach Anspruch 12 bis 13, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass man die Relativbewegung des Trennelemente und des Stapels durch eine Translationsbewegung des Trennelements (4, 14) tangential zum Stapel (5) und/oder durch eine Translationsbewegung des Stapels längs des Trennelements erhält.
- Trennverfahren nach Anspruch 16, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass man die Relativbewegung des Trennelements und des Stapels außerdem durch Rotation des Stapels (5) um sich selbst und/oder durch Rotation des Trennelements um den Stapel herum erhält.
- Trennverfahren nach Anspruch 12 oder 13, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass das Trennelement so konzipiert ist, dass der Abstand zwischen dem ersten Kontaktpunkt und dem zweiten Kontaktpunkt im Laufe der Relativbewegung des Stapels in Bezug auf das Brennelement zunimmt,
- Trennverfahren nach Anspruch 18, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass die Zunahme des Abstands zwischen dem ersten Kontaktpunkt und dem zweiten Kontaktpunkt durch ein System erzeugt wird, das den genannten Abstand bei dem Trennelement dynamisch anpasst.
- Trennverfahren nach Anspruch 18 oder 19, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass die Schritte a) und b) N-mal wiederholt werden (N ≥ 2), wobei jedes Mal ein anderes Trennelement benutzt wird, mit einem maximalen Abstand zwischen dem ersten und dem zweiten Kontaktpunkt des Trennelements, der größer ist als der maximale Abstand des vorhergehenden Trennelements.
- Trennverfahren nach Anspruch 20, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass der Abstand zwischen dem ersten und dem zweiten Kontaktpunkt des Trennelements zu jeweils dem ersten und dem zweiten Teil des Stapels für jedes Trennelement konstant ist.
