Abstract
Description
本発明は、ガラス基板や半導体ウェーハなどの被処理物の表面に所定幅で、例えばホトレジスト液やカラーフィルタとなる塗布液を塗布するスリットノズルに関する。 The present invention relates to a slit nozzle that coats a surface of an object to be processed such as a glass substrate or a semiconductor wafer with a predetermined width, for example, a photoresist solution or a coating solution that becomes a color filter.
図4は従来のスリットノズルの要部を示す図であり、従来にあっては左右の半体11,12の合わせ面にシム13を噛ませてボルトで接合している。この場合、スリット状吐出口14の幅寸法Wはシム13の厚みに依存する。しかしながら、シム13を正確に加工するには限度があり、吐出口14の幅寸法を正確に設定することが困難であった。
FIG. 4 is a diagram showing the main part of a conventional slit nozzle. In the prior art,
そこで、シムを用いないスリットノズルが考えられるが、シムは側面からの液漏れを防止していたため、この液漏れを防止するため側板をノズルの両側端に取り付ける必要がある。このような構造が特許文献1〜6に開示されている。 Therefore, a slit nozzle that does not use a shim is conceivable. However, since the shim prevents liquid leakage from the side surface, it is necessary to attach side plates to both ends of the nozzle in order to prevent this liquid leakage. Such a structure is disclosed in Patent Documents 1-6.
特許文献1〜3に示されるスリットノズルにあっては、ノズル本体の側面に直接側板を取り付けている。また、特許文献4,5に示されるスリットノズルにあっては、側板とノズル本体の側面との間にシール板またはパッキンを介在せしめている。 In the slit nozzles disclosed in Patent Documents 1 to 3, a side plate is directly attached to the side surface of the nozzle body. Moreover, in the slit nozzle shown by patent document 4, 5, the sealing plate or packing is interposed between the side plate and the side surface of the nozzle body.
また、特許文献6にはノズル本体のマニホールドが開口する側面にポケット栓を嵌め込み、その外側に側板を取り付け、更にノズルの開口幅はフッ素樹脂製のスペーサ(シム)で調整することが開示されている。
先行技術1〜5に開示されたスリットノズルにあっては、側板または側板の内側に設けたシール板(パッキン)に接する部分で塗布液の流速が低下するため、スリット状吐出口から吐出される塗布液量がノズルの長さ方向に沿って均一にならず両端部で不足しやすくなる。 In the slit nozzles disclosed in the prior arts 1 to 5, since the flow rate of the coating liquid is reduced at a portion in contact with the side plate or a seal plate (packing) provided inside the side plate, the liquid is discharged from the slit-like discharge port. The amount of the coating liquid is not uniform along the length direction of the nozzle, and it tends to be insufficient at both ends.
また先行技術6にあっては、スペーサを撥水性のフッ素樹脂製としているので、このスペーサと接触する部分での塗布液の流速の低下は抑えられるが、これよりも上流側のマニホールドの端部とスリットの端部を別々の部材で塞じているので、ノズルの長さ方向を変更するときには、それぞれの部材を調節しなければならず
手間がかかっていた。
In the
また、側板の厚みによって基板に吐出された塗布液の吐出分布が異なるという現象が生じていた。 Moreover, the phenomenon that the discharge distribution of the coating liquid discharged onto the substrate differs depending on the thickness of the side plate has occurred.
上記課題を解決すべく本発明に係るスリットノズルは、左右の半体を接合してなり、左右の半体のうちの少なくとも一方の半体の合わせ面にはスリット状吐出口の幅寸法を決定する凹部が形成され、またスリットノズルの両端には前記凹部によって形成される側面開口を閉じる側板が取り付けられ、且つこの側板を撥水性の材料とするか側板の少なくとも前記側面開口に臨む部分を撥水性の材料にて被覆した構成とした。 In order to solve the above problems, the slit nozzle according to the present invention is formed by joining the left and right halves, and the width dimension of the slit-like discharge port is determined on the mating surface of at least one of the left and right halves. A side plate that closes the side opening formed by the recess is attached to both ends of the slit nozzle, and the side plate is made of a water-repellent material, or at least a portion of the side plate that faces the side opening is repelled. It was set as the structure coat | covered with the aqueous material.
スリット状吐出口を閉塞する側板の吐出側近傍における側板の厚みを吐出分布に差がでない程度まで加工する。 The thickness of the side plate in the vicinity of the discharge side of the side plate closing the slit-shaped discharge port is processed to such an extent that there is no difference in the discharge distribution.
本発明によれば、スリット状吐出流路の両端部を撥水性とすることで、流路の両端部での塗布液の流速低下を抑えることができるので、均一な塗布及び均一な厚さの塗膜が得られる。 According to the present invention, by making the both ends of the slit-like discharge channel water-repellent, a decrease in the flow rate of the coating liquid at both ends of the channel can be suppressed. A coating film is obtained.
以下に本発明の実施の形態を添付図面に基づいて説明する。図1は本発明に係るスリットノズルを適用した塗布装置の側面図、図2は同スリットノズルの斜視図、図3は同スリットノズルの分解斜視図であり、スリットノズル1は水平動と昇降動が可能なフレーム20に支持され、このフレーム20の一端側上面には送液ポンプ21を設け、この送液ポンプ21に塗布液タンクから供給管22を介して塗布液を供給し、スリットノズル1に送液ポンプ21から供給管23を介して塗布液を供給するようにしている。また、スリットノズル1の側面にはギャップセンサ24が取り付けられている。
Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. 1 is a side view of a coating apparatus to which a slit nozzle according to the present invention is applied, FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the slit nozzle, FIG. 3 is an exploded perspective view of the slit nozzle, and the slit nozzle 1 is moved horizontally and vertically. A
スリットノズル1は左右の半体2,3からなり、一方の半体2の合わせ面はフラットにするとともに他方の半体3の中間位置には長さ方向に伸びるマニホールド4が形成され、このマニホールド4よりも上方部分5を半体2との接合面とし、マニホールド4よりも下方部分6を上方部分5よりも研削量を多くして後退させ、
半体2の合わせ面との間に隙間を形成し、この隙間をスリットノズル吐出口7の幅寸法Wとなるようにしている。
The slit nozzle 1 is composed of left and
A gap is formed between the half body 2 and the mating surface, and the gap is set to the width dimension W of the slit nozzle discharge port 7.
また、左右の半体2,3を接合した状態で左右の側面にはマニホールド4と吐出口7の側端部が開口しているため、この開口を側板8,9にて液密に閉じている。
Further, since the side ends of the manifold 4 and the discharge port 7 are opened on the left and right side surfaces with the left and
本発明では側板8,9を樹脂などの撥水性の材料で構成するか、側板8,9の半体2,3と接合される裏側面に撥水コーティングを施している。この側板8,9はスリットノズル吐出口7近傍の厚みが、0.1〜1.0mm(好ましくは0.5mm以下、さらに好ましくは0.1〜0.3mm)になるように加工されている。
In the present invention, the
このように、スリットノズル吐出口7の側方への開口を撥水性の部材で塞ぐことで、両端部における塗布液の流速が大きく低下することがないので、均一な塗布が行える。具体的には、粘度5cpのホトレジストを、温度23℃、塗布量1000μl/secで1.5μm厚の塗膜を形成した。この場合の両サイドの膜厚の落ち込みは、従来のスリットノズルを用いた場合には0.3μmであったが、本発明に係るスリットノズルを用いた場合には0.1μmまで改善された。 In this way, by closing the opening to the side of the slit nozzle discharge port 7 with a water-repellent member, the flow rate of the coating liquid at both ends is not greatly reduced, and uniform coating can be performed. Specifically, a 1.5 μm thick coating film was formed from a photoresist having a viscosity of 5 cp at a temperature of 23 ° C. and a coating amount of 1000 μl / sec. In this case, the film thickness drop on both sides was 0.3 μm when the conventional slit nozzle was used, but was improved to 0.1 μm when the slit nozzle according to the present invention was used.
側板8,9の厚みを0.1〜1.0mm(好ましくは0.5mm以下、さらに好ましくは0.1〜0.3mm)に加工したことによって、基板端部における吐出分布が良くなった。側板全体の厚みを0.1〜1.0mm(好ましくは0.5mm以下、さらに好ましくは0.1〜0.3mm)に加工することは強度を保てないが、吐出口近傍のみを0.1〜1.0mm(好ましくは0.5mm以下、さらに好ましくは0.1〜0.3mm)になるように加工することで、側板としても強度を保ちつつ、吐出分布も図7に示すように良好となる。
By processing the thickness of the
本発明に係るスリットノズルはガラス基板や半導体ウェーハの表面に所定幅でホトレジスト液、SOG液或いはカラーフィルター用の塗布液を塗布する装置に適用できる。 The slit nozzle according to the present invention can be applied to an apparatus for applying a photoresist solution, an SOG solution, or a coating solution for a color filter with a predetermined width on the surface of a glass substrate or a semiconductor wafer.
