【発明の属する技術分野】
この発明は、熱処理炉内へ半導体ウエハ、液晶表示装置用ガラス基板、フォトマスク用ガラス基板、光ディスク用基板等の基板を1枚ずつ搬入し光照射等により基板を加熱して熱処理する基板の熱処理装置において、熱処理される基板の温度を接触式で測定する温度測定装置、ならびに、その接触式温度測定装置を備えた基板の熱処理装置に関し、特に、測温体の姿勢を調整するための技術に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
半導体デバイスの製造工程においては、ランプアニール装置やCVD装置などのように、熱処理炉内へ基板、例えば半導体ウエハを1枚ずつ搬入しウエハに光を照射するなどしてウエハを加熱し熱処理する枚葉式の熱処理装置が、各種の工程で広く使用されている。図2に、ランプアニール装置の構成の1例を示す。
【0003】
図2に概略側断面図を示したランプアニール装置は、半導体ウエハWの搬入および搬出を行うための開口52を前部側に有する熱処理炉50を備えている。熱処理炉50の炉壁は、光透過性材料、例えば石英ガラスで形成されている。熱処理炉50の開口52側には、熱処理炉50に連接して炉口ブロック54が設けられている。熱処理炉50の前端面と炉口ブロック54との接合面には、O−リング56が装着されており、熱処理炉50の内部の気密性が保たれる。
【0004】
炉口ブロック54には、取付部58が設けられており、取付部58に石英製のサセプタ60が固着されている。そして、サセプタ60に、高純度SiCで薄板状リング形状に形成されウエハWの外径寸法と同等の内径寸法を有する均熱リング62が水平に保持されている。サセプタ60には、複数個所、例えば2個所に支持ピン64が植設されている。また、取付部58には、ウエハWの温度を接触式で計測する温度測定装置の測温体66が水平方向に取り付けられている。測温体66は、例えばR熱電対を、高純度SiCで先端が閉塞した細管状に形成された被覆部材内に挿入した構造を有している。測温体66の先端部上側は、平坦面に形成されて水平に保持されている。この測温体66の先端部とサセプタ60の2本の支持ピン64とにより、ウエハWが均熱リング62と同心に水平姿勢で支持される。
【0005】
また、図示していないが、炉口ブロック54の前面開口は、可動フランジによって開閉自在に閉塞されるようになっており、炉口ブロック54の前面開口に対向して、ウエハWを水平姿勢に支持するアームを有し熱処理炉50内へ処理前のウエハWを搬入し熱処理炉50内から処理済みのウエハWを搬出するウエハ搬出入ロボットが設置されている。
【0006】
熱処理炉50の上方および下方にはそれぞれ、上部炉壁および下部炉壁に対向してハロゲンランプ、キセノンランプ等の光照射手段としてのランプ68が複数本列設されている。ランプ68の背後ならびに熱処理炉50の両側面および後部側にはそれぞれ、内面側に鏡面研磨等が施されたリフレクタ(反射板)70が熱処理炉50を取り囲むように配設されている。なお、ランプ68は、熱処理炉50の上方側だけに配設するようにしてもよい。
【0007】
熱処理炉50の後部側には、ガス導入路72が形設されており、ガス導入路72は、窒素等の処理ガスの供給源に流路接続されている。また、図示されていないが、炉口ブロック54には、ガス排気路が形成されている。
【0008】
このランプアニール装置では、ウエハWの下面に測温体66を当接させて温度測定装置によりウエハWの温度を計測し、その計測温度と目標温度との偏差に基づいて制御器(図示せず)で制御動作を行い、ランプ68へ供給する電力を算出する、といったフィードバック制御が行われる。このように、測温体66をウエハWの下面に当接させてウエハWの温度を接触式で計測するため、測温体66とウエハW下面との接触状態が温度測定精度に影響を与える。そして、計測温度に基づきフィードバック制御してウエハWの加熱処理を行うため、温度測定精度の良否がプロセスの再現性や装置間機差の支配的な要因となる。したがって、測温体66とウエハWの下面との接触状態を最適化することが、極めて重要になる。この測温体66とウエハWとの位置関係の調整は、従来、図3の(a)、(b)に示すように、測温体66の先端部上側の平坦面とウエハW下面との隙間を目視で確認することができなくなる状態となるように、炉口ブロック54の取付部58の位置から測温体66の基部を作業者が手で操作して測温体66の先端部の姿勢を調節することにより行っていた。
【0009】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
しかしながら、炉口ブロック54の取付部58の位置から測温体66の基部を作業者が手で操作して、棒状をなす測温体66の先端部の姿勢を調節する、といった方法では、測温体66の先端部上側の平坦面とウエハW下面との隙間がなるべく極小となるように微調整することが非常に困難である。
【0010】
この発明は、このような事情に鑑みてなされたものであり、棒状をなす測温体の先端部の姿勢を容易に微調整することができる基板の接触式温度測定装置を提供すること、ならびに、接触式温度測定装置を備えた基板の熱処理装置を提供することを目的とする。

【0013】
請求項3に係る発明は、棒状をなし水平方向に配設される測温体の先端部上側の平坦面を、加熱手段によって加熱され熱処理される基板の下面に当接させて基板の温度を接触式で測定する基板の接触式温度測定装置において、前記測温体の基部が固着されて測温体を片持ち式に保持するホルダと、このホルダに前記測温体と直交する連結軸を介して連結され、前記ホルダを微少移動させて、前記測温体の先端部上側の平坦面の姿勢を調整する調整機構と、前記連結軸に一体的に外嵌されかつ前記ホルダに気密に密着する鍔部を有する外嵌部材、前記ホルダおよび前記連結軸を取り囲むように固設された筒部材、この筒部材の内側に固定されまたは摺動自在に保持された内筒部材、前記筒部材の内周面と前記内筒部材の外周面との間に介挿されたシール部材、および、前記外嵌部材の鍔部と前記内筒部材とを連接する筒状ベローズ部材を備えて構成され、前記調整機構が配設される空間と前記測温体が配設される空間とを、測温体の動きを許容し気密を保持して隔絶する気密隔絶手段と、を備えたことを特徴とする。
【0014】
請求項4に係る発明は、請求項3記載の接触式温度測定装置において、前記調整機構を、前記測温体の先端部を、前記ホルダを中心として上下方向に揺動させるピッチング調整部と、前記測温体を、その軸心線回りに回動させるローリング調整部と、前記測温体の全体を上下方向に移動させるZ軸方向調整部と、から構成したことを特徴とする。

【0015】
請求項1に係る発明の接触式温度測定装置においては、調整機構によってホルダを微少移動させることにより、測温体の先端部上側の平坦面の姿勢を調整することができる。すなわち、ピッチング調整部によって測温体の先端部を、ホルダを中心として上下方向に揺動させることにより、測温体の先端部上側の平坦面の、測温体を側方から見たときの水平面に対する傾斜角度が微調整される。また、ローリング調整部によって測温体を、その軸心線回りに回動させることにより、測温体の先端部上側の平坦面の、測温体を正面方向から見たときの水平面に対する傾斜角度が微調整される。さらに、Z軸方向調整部によって測温体の全体を上下方向に移動させることにより、ピッチング調整部による調整操作に伴って変化した測温体の先端部上側の平坦面の高さ位置が、基板を水平姿勢に支持することができる所定位置となるように調整し直される。したがって、棒状をなす測温体の先端部の姿勢を容易に微調整することが可能である。また、測温体が配設される空間、すなわち熱処理装置の熱処理炉の内部と、調整機構が配設される空間、すなわち熱処理炉の外部とは、気密隔絶手段により測温体の動きを許容しつつ気密を保持して隔絶されるので、測温体の姿勢を調整する操作を行っても、熱処理炉内からのリーク等を生じることがない。
【0016】
請求項2に係る発明の接触式温度測定装置では、測温体が配設される空間と調整機構が配設される空間とは、ホルダ、外嵌部材、筒状ベローズ部材、内筒部材およびシール部材により気密を保持して隔絶される。また、調整機構による調整操作に伴って微少移動するホルダに気密に密着した外嵌部材の鍔部と、固設された筒部材の内側に固定されまたは摺動自在に保持された内筒部材とは、筒状ベローズ部材を介して連接しているので、測温体の姿勢を調整する際に、ホルダ、したがってホルダに保持された測温体の動きが内筒部材によって規制されることはない
【0017】
請求項3に係る発明の接触式温度測定装置においては、調整機構によってホルダを微少移動させることにより、測温体の先端部上側の平坦面の姿勢を調整することができる。したがって、棒状をなす測温体の先端部の姿勢を容易に微調整することが可能である。また、測温体が配設される空間、すなわち熱処理装置の熱処理炉の内部と、調整機構が配設される空間、すなわち熱処理炉の外部とは、ホルダ、外嵌部材、筒状ベローズ部材、内筒部材およびシール部材により気密を保持して隔絶される。また、調整機構による調整操作に伴って微少移動するホルダに気密に密着した外嵌部材の鍔部と、固設された筒部材の内側に固定されまたは摺動自在に保持された内筒部材とは、筒状ベローズ部材を介して連接しているので、測温体の姿勢を調整する際に、ホルダ、したがってホルダに保持された測温体の動きが内筒部材によって規制されることはない。このように、熱処理炉内からのリーク等を生じることなく、測温体の姿勢を調整する操作を行うことが可能である。
【0018】
請求項4に係る発明の接触式温度測定装置では、ピッチング調整部によって測温体の先端部を、ホルダを中心として上下方向に揺動させることにより、測温体の先端部上側の平坦面の、測温体を側方から見たときの水平面に対する傾斜角度が微調整される。また、ローリング調整部によって測温体を、その軸心線回りに回動させることにより、測温体の先端部上側の平坦面の、測温体を正面方向から見たときの水平面に対する傾斜角度が微調整される。さらに、Z軸方向調整部によって測温体の全体を上下方向に移動させることにより、ピッチング調整部による調整操作に伴って変化した測温体の先端部上側の平坦面の高さ位置が、基板を水平姿勢に支持することができる所定位置となるように調整し直される。
請求項5に係る発明の基板の熱処理装置においては、調整機構によって測温体の先端部の姿勢を微調整することにより、測温体が最適な姿勢に保持されるので、基板の熱処理時に、測温体によって基板の温度が精度良く検出される。
【0019】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下、この発明の好適な実施形態について図1を参照しながら説明する。
【0020】
図1は、この発明の実施形態の1例を示し、基板の接触式温度測定装置を、一部を縦断面で示す側面図である。この接触式温度測定装置は、基板の熱処理装置、例えばランプアニール装置に装着されて使用される。図1には、ランプアニール装置の全体構成を図示していないが、この温度測定装置の本体部分は、熱処理炉の開口側に設けられる炉口ブロックの取付部(図2参照)に設置される。
【0021】
この接触式温度測定装置は、棒状をなし水平方向に配設される測温体10(測温体10自体の構成は従来と変わらないので、ここではその説明を省略する)、測温体10の基部が固着されて測温体10を片持ち式に保持するホルダ12、このホルダ12を微少移動させて、測温体10の先端部上側の平坦面の姿勢を調整する調整機構14、ホルダ12と調整機構14とを連接する連接軸16、ならびに、測温体10が配設される空間、すなわち熱処理炉20の内部と、調整機構14が配設される空間、すなわち熱処理炉20の外部とを、測温体10の動きを許容し気密を保持して隔絶する可動シール部18を備えて構成されている。
【0022】
連接軸16は、ホルダ12の下面側に上端部が固着され、測温体10と直交するように鉛直方向に配設されて、下端側は、詳細な構造を図示していないがコネクタを介し着脱自在に調整機構14に連接されている。調整機構14は、ローリング調整ステージ22、ピッチング調整ステージ24およびZ軸方向調整ステージ26から構成されている。
【0023】
ローリング調整ステージ22は、固定台22aに対し可動台22bがホルダ12の中心位置(測温体10の軸心線と連接軸16の軸心線とが交差する位置)Oを中心として図1の紙面と直交する方向に揺動するように構成されている。このローリング調整ステージ22により、測温体10が、矢印Aに示すように軸心線回りに回動させられて、測温体10の先端部上側の平坦面の、測温体10を正面方向から見た(図3の(b)参照)ときの水平面に対する傾斜角度が微調整される。また、ピッチング調整ステージ24は、固定台24aに対し可動台24b(および可動台24b上に取着されたローリング調整ステージ22)がホルダ12の中心位置Oを中心として図1の紙面に沿った方向に揺動するように構成されている。このピッチング調整ステージ24により、測温体10の先端部が、矢印Bに示すようにホルダ12の中心位置Oを中心として上下方向に揺動させられて、測温体10の先端部上側の平坦面の、測温体10を側方から見た(図3の(a)参照)ときの水平面に対する傾斜角度が微調整される。これらのローリング調整ステージ22およびピッチング調整ステージ24には、水平面に対する調節角度を指示する目盛りがそれぞれ付されており、作業者は、その目盛りを見ながら調整操作を行うことができるようになっている。
【0024】
また、Z軸方向調整ステージ26は、それに取着されたローリング調整ステージ22およびピッチング調整ステージ24ならびに連接軸16およびホルダ12の全体を鉛直方向に往復移動させるように構成されている。このZ軸方向調整ステージ26により、測温体10の全体が上下方向に移動させられる。そして、ピッチング調整ステージ24による調整操作に伴い、測温体10の先端部上側の平坦面の高さ位置が変化することになるが、ピッチング調整ステージ24による調整後に、Z軸方向調整ステージ26によって測温体10の全体を上下方向に移動させることにより、測温体10の先端部上側の平坦面の高さ位置が、基板を水平姿勢に支持することができる所定位置となるように調整し直すことができる。このZ軸方向調整ステージ26には、基準面に対する高さ位置を示す目盛りが付されており、作業者は、その目盛りを見ながら調整操作を行うことができるようになっている。
【0025】
可動シール部18は、連接軸16の外周面側に一体的に嵌入されるとともにホルダ12の下面にO−リング28を介在させて気密に密着する鍔部32を有する外嵌部材30、ホルダ12および連接軸16を取り囲むように固設された筒部材34、筒部材34の内側に固定され(あるいは摺動自在に保持され)た内筒部材36、筒部材34の内周面と内筒部材36の外周面との間に介挿されたシールリング38、および、外嵌部材30の鍔部32と内筒部材36とを連接する筒状ベローズ部材40を備えて構成されている。筒部材34は、O−リング42を介在させて熱処理炉20の開口側端面に気密に密着している。
【0026】
このような構成を有する可動シール部18を備えていることにより、測温体10が配設された熱処理炉20の内部からガスが漏れ出たり、熱処理炉20内へ外気が侵入したりする、といった心配がない。また、ホルダ12に密着した外嵌部材30の鍔部32と筒部材34の内側に配設された内筒部材36とが筒状ベローズ部材40を介して連接しているので、筒部材34および内筒部材36に対して測温体10、ホルダ12、連接軸16および外嵌部材30が微少移動することが可能である。このため、シールリング38による筒部材34内周面と内筒部材36外周面との間における気密状態を保持したままで、調整機構14によりホルダ12および測温体10を微少移動させて測温体10の姿勢を調整することができる。
【0027】
なお、調整機構14および可動シール部18は、上記実施形態に示した構成に限定されず、同様の機能を有するものであればどのような構成であってもよい。
【0028】
図1に示した構成を有する接触式温度測定装置を、基板の熱処理装置、例えば図2に示したランプアニール装置に具備させることができる。ランプアニール装置の構成については、図2に基づいて上述したので、ここでは説明を省略する。このように接触式温度測定装置を備えたランプアニール装置では、測温体14(図2においては測温体66である。以下、同じ)の先端部の姿勢を微調整することにより、ウエハWに対し測温体14を最適な姿勢に保持することができる。したがって、測温体14の先端部平坦面とウエハWの下面との間の隙間が極小になった状態でウエハWの熱処理が行われるので、測温体14によって熱処理中のウエハWの温度が精度良く検出される。このため、ウエハWに対してより精度の高い熱処理を施すことが可能になる。
【0029】
【発明の効果】
請求項1および請求項3に係る発明の基板の接触式温度測定装置によると、棒状をなす測温体の先端部の姿勢を容易に微調整することができ、調整に要する時間を短縮し労力を軽減することができる。
【0030】
請求項2に係る発明の接触式温度測定装置では、測温体が配設される空間と調整機構が配設される空間とを、確実に気密を保持して隔絶しつつ、測温体の姿勢を調整することができる。
【0031】
請求項4に係る発明の接触式温度測定装置では、ピッチング調整部、ローリング調整部およびZ軸方向調整部の3つの調整部を操作することにより、測温体の先端部の姿勢を容易に微調整することができる。
【0032】
請求項5に係る発明の基板の熱処理装置を使用すると、請求項1ないし請求項4に係る各発明の上記効果を奏することができるため、熱処理が施されている基板の温度をより正確に検出することが可能となる。このため、基板に対してより精度の高い熱処理を施すことができる。

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
This invention carries a substrate such as a semiconductor wafer, a glass substrate for a liquid crystal display device, a glass substrate for a photomask, and an optical disk substrate into a heat treatment furnace one by one and heats the substrate by light irradiation or the like to heat-treat the substrate. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a temperature measuring device that measures the temperature of a substrate to be heat-treated in a contact manner, and a substrate heat treatment device equipped with the contact temperature measuring device, and more particularly to a technique for adjusting the attitude of a temperature measuring body. .
[0002]
[Prior art]
In a semiconductor device manufacturing process, like a lamp annealing apparatus or a CVD apparatus, a substrate, for example, a semiconductor wafer, for example, is carried one by one into a heat treatment furnace, and the wafer is heated and heat-treated by irradiating the wafer with light. Leaf-type heat treatment apparatuses are widely used in various processes. FIG. 2 shows an example of the configuration of the lamp annealing apparatus.
[0003]
The lamp annealing apparatus shown in a schematic side sectional view in FIG. 2 includes a heat treatment furnace 50 having an opening 52 for carrying in and out the semiconductor wafer W on the front side. The furnace wall of the heat treatment furnace 50 is formed of a light transmissive material, for example, quartz glass. A furnace port block 54 is provided on the opening 52 side of the heat treatment furnace 50 so as to be connected to the heat treatment furnace 50. An O-ring 56 is attached to the joint surface between the front end surface of the heat treatment furnace 50 and the furnace port block 54, and the airtightness inside the heat treatment furnace 50 is maintained.
[0004]
A mounting portion 58 is provided in the furnace port block 54, and a susceptor 60 made of quartz is fixed to the mounting portion 58. The susceptor 60 is horizontally held with a soaking ring 62 that is formed in a thin plate-like ring shape of high-purity SiC and has an inner diameter dimension equivalent to the outer diameter dimension of the wafer W. Support pins 64 are implanted in the susceptor 60 at a plurality of places, for example, two places. In addition, a temperature measuring body 66 of a temperature measuring device that measures the temperature of the wafer W by a contact method is attached to the attaching portion 58 in the horizontal direction. The temperature measuring element 66 has a structure in which, for example, an R thermocouple is inserted into a covering member formed in a narrow tubular shape whose tip is closed with high-purity SiC. The upper end of the temperature measuring body 66 is formed on a flat surface and is held horizontally. The wafer W is supported in a horizontal posture concentrically with the heat equalizing ring 62 by the tip of the temperature measuring body 66 and the two support pins 64 of the susceptor 60.
[0005]
Although not shown, the front opening of the furnace port block 54 is opened and closed by a movable flange so as to face the front opening of the furnace port block 54 so that the wafer W is in a horizontal posture. A wafer loading / unloading robot that has a supporting arm and loads the unprocessed wafer W into the heat treatment furnace 50 and unloads the processed wafer W from the heat treatment furnace 50 is installed.
[0006]
A plurality of lamps 68 as light irradiation means such as a halogen lamp and a xenon lamp are arranged in a row above and below the heat treatment furnace 50 so as to face the upper furnace wall and the lower furnace wall, respectively. A reflector (reflector) 70 whose inner surface is mirror-polished or the like is disposed so as to surround the heat treatment furnace 50 behind the lamp 68 and on both sides and the rear side of the heat treatment furnace 50. Note that the lamp 68 may be disposed only above the heat treatment furnace 50.
[0007]
A gas introduction path 72 is formed on the rear side of the heat treatment furnace 50, and the gas introduction path 72 is connected to a supply source of a processing gas such as nitrogen. Although not shown, a gas exhaust path is formed in the furnace port block 54.
[0008]
In this lamp annealing apparatus, the temperature measuring body 66 is brought into contact with the lower surface of the wafer W, the temperature of the wafer W is measured by the temperature measuring apparatus, and a controller (not shown) is based on the deviation between the measured temperature and the target temperature. ) To perform the control operation and calculate the electric power supplied to the lamp 68. As described above, since the temperature measuring body 66 is brought into contact with the lower surface of the wafer W and the temperature of the wafer W is measured in a contact manner, the contact state between the temperature measuring body 66 and the lower surface of the wafer W affects the temperature measurement accuracy. . Since the wafer W is heated by feedback control based on the measured temperature, the quality of the temperature measurement accuracy is a dominant factor in process reproducibility and machine-to-apparatus difference. Therefore, it is extremely important to optimize the contact state between the temperature measuring member 66 and the lower surface of the wafer W. Conventionally, the positional relationship between the temperature measuring element 66 and the wafer W is adjusted between the flat surface on the upper end of the temperature measuring element 66 and the lower surface of the wafer W as shown in FIGS. The operator manually operates the base of the temperature measuring body 66 from the position of the mounting portion 58 of the furnace port block 54 so that the gap cannot be visually confirmed. It was done by adjusting the posture.
[0009]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, in the method in which the operator manually operates the base of the temperature measuring body 66 from the position of the mounting portion 58 of the furnace port block 54 to adjust the posture of the tip of the rod-shaped temperature measuring body 66, the measurement is performed. It is very difficult to make fine adjustment so that the gap between the flat surface on the upper end of the warm body 66 and the lower surface of the wafer W is as small as possible.
[0010]
