Description
本発明は例えばガラス基板や半導体ウェーハ等の板状被処理物表面にレジスト液や現像液、カラーフィルタなどの塗布液をスリット状開口部から流下させて塗布するスリットコータの予備吐出装置に関する。 The present invention relates to a preliminary discharge device for a slit coater that applies a coating solution such as a resist solution, a developing solution, a color filter or the like to a surface of a plate-like object to be processed such as a glass substrate or a semiconductor wafer through a slit-shaped opening.
スリットコータを用いて連続的に多数の基板表面に塗布液を供給する場合、塗布作業と塗布作業との間の待機時間に、空気との接触により吐出ノズル先端部の塗布液の一部の濃度が上昇する。そして、この状態のまま、次の基板に塗布を継続すると、高濃度化した塗布液によって縦筋が発生したり、膜切れが発生する。 When supplying a coating solution to a large number of substrate surfaces continuously using a slit coater, the concentration of a part of the coating solution at the tip of the discharge nozzle due to contact with air during the waiting time between the coating operations Rises. If the coating is continued on the next substrate in this state, vertical stripes are generated due to the highly concentrated coating solution, or film breakage occurs.
上記の不利を解消すべく、特許文献１には、洗浄液を保持する洗浄槽内にプライミングローラを配置し、このプライミングローラの上部を洗浄液よりも上方に突出させ、突出したプライミングローラの表面にスリットコータの吐出ノズルを近接せしめ、余分な塗布液を吐出ノズルから引き出してプライミングローラの表面に付着せしめて取り除くようにした先行技術がしられている。 In order to eliminate the above disadvantages, Patent Document 1 discloses that a priming roller is disposed in a cleaning tank that holds a cleaning liquid, the upper portion of the priming roller protrudes above the cleaning liquid, and a slit is formed on the surface of the protruding priming roller. There is a prior art in which the discharge nozzle of the coater is brought close to each other, and excess coating liquid is drawn from the discharge nozzle and adhered to the surface of the priming roller.
また、特許文献２には、洗浄効率を向上させる目的で、平流し方式において２流体ジェットノズルを用いて、省スペース、省用力で効率よく洗浄ムラのないブロー洗浄処理をする先行技術技術も知られている。 Patent Document 2 also discloses a prior art that uses a two-fluid jet nozzle in a flat-flow system for efficient cleaning with a space-saving and power-saving and without cleaning unevenness for the purpose of improving cleaning efficiency. It has been.
更に、特許文献３には、プライミングローラに新液を噴出する新液シャワーノズルの上方に、乾燥ガスを噴出するガス噴出ノズルを配置し、プライミングローラ表面を乾燥せしめる内容が記載されている。
特許文献１及び特許文献２に開示される予備吐出装置にあっては、プライミングローラの表面に向けて洗浄液を噴出するシャワーノズルを備えているが、このシャワーノズルから噴出する洗浄液は回収タンクに回収した洗浄液を循環させて用いている。 The preliminary discharge device disclosed in Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2 includes a shower nozzle that ejects cleaning liquid toward the surface of the priming roller. The cleaning liquid ejected from the shower nozzle is collected in a collection tank. The cleaning solution used is circulated.
しかしながら、従来にあってはシャワーノズルから１度使用した洗浄液を噴出しているので、洗浄能力の点で新液を供給する場合に比べて劣る。逆に新液のみを供給した場合にはコスト的に不利になる。 However, conventionally, since the cleaning liquid used once is ejected from the shower nozzle, it is inferior to the case of supplying a new liquid in terms of cleaning ability. Conversely, when only a new solution is supplied, it is disadvantageous in terms of cost.
また、従来例にあっては洗浄後のプライミングローラ表面の乾燥を排気によって行うようにしているが、乾燥に時間がかかることもあり、プライミングローラ表面に付着し、濃縮した塗布液を剥離し難くいという問題もある。 Further, in the conventional example, the surface of the priming roller after cleaning is dried by exhaust, but it may take time to dry, and it adheres to the surface of the priming roller and makes it difficult to remove the concentrated coating liquid. There is also a problem.
更に、特許文献３に記載されたガス噴出ノズルは、乾燥ガスの噴出方向が真下ではないので、プライミングローラ表面に当たった乾燥ガスがスリットコータの吐出ノズルに向かってしまい、吐出ノズル先端部の塗布液の乾燥を助長してしまうおそれがある。 Furthermore, since the gas jet nozzle described in Patent Document 3 is not directly below the dry gas jet direction, the dry gas that hits the surface of the priming roller is directed toward the discharge nozzle of the slit coater, and the tip of the discharge nozzle is applied. There is a risk of promoting drying of the liquid.
上記課題を解決すべく本発明は、洗浄液を保持する洗浄槽と、この洗浄槽内に配置されたスリットコータの吐出ノズルからの塗布液を表面に付着せしめて取り除くプライミングローラと、プライミングローラの表面に向かって新液を噴出する新液シャワーノズルと循環液を噴出する循環液シャワーノズルを、プライミングローラの回転方向を基準として循環液シャワーノズルよりも前方に位置させることを特徴とするスリットコータの予備吐出装置において、前記新液シャワーノズルの上方で且つプライミングローラの鉛直方向中心線よりも前記新液シャワーノズル寄りの位置に乾燥ガスを噴出するガス噴出ノズルを配置し、このガス噴出ノズルを鉛直方向することで、プライミングローラの表面に乾燥ガスが真上から斜めに当たるようにした。 In order to solve the above-described problems, the present invention provides a cleaning tank that holds a cleaning liquid, a priming roller that removes the coating liquid from a discharge nozzle of a slit coater disposed in the cleaning tank by attaching it to the surface, and a surface of the priming roller A slit coater characterized in that a new liquid shower nozzle that ejects a new liquid toward and a circulating liquid shower nozzle that ejects a circulating liquid is positioned in front of the circulating liquid shower nozzle with reference to the rotation direction of the priming roller. In the preliminary ejection device, a gas ejection nozzle that ejects dry gas is disposed above the new liquid shower nozzle and at a position closer to the new liquid shower nozzle than the vertical center line of the priming roller, and the gas ejection nozzle is arranged vertically. Direction so that the dry gas strikes the surface of the priming roller diagonally from right above. .
また、上記スリットコータの予備吐出装置において、前記新液シャワーノズルとまたは循環液シャワーノズルの下方にはプライミングローラの表面に付着している塗布液を掻き落とすスキージがバネを利用して調整可能に配置してもよいし、前記新液シャワーノズル及び乾燥ガス噴出ノズルの後方から前記洗浄槽全体の排気を取る排気口を開口させてもよい。 Further, in the preliminary discharge device of the slit coater, a squeegee for scraping off the coating liquid adhering to the surface of the priming roller can be adjusted using a spring below the new liquid shower nozzle or the circulating liquid shower nozzle. You may arrange | position and may open the exhaust port which takes out the exhaust_gas | exhaustion of the whole said washing tank from the back of the said new liquid shower nozzle and a dry gas ejection nozzle.
更に、スリットコータの予備吐出装置において、前記新液シャワーノズル及び循環液シャワーノズルは２流体ノズルであっても良いし、前記新液シャワーノズル、循環液シャワーノズル、スキージ、乾燥ガス噴出ノズル、排気口の長さは、前記プライミングローラの長手方向の長さと略同一か又は若干長めにしてもよい。 Further, in the preliminary discharge device of the slit coater, the new liquid shower nozzle and the circulating liquid shower nozzle may be two-fluid nozzles, the new liquid shower nozzle, the circulating liquid shower nozzle, the squeegee, the dry gas ejection nozzle, the exhaust gas. The length of the mouth may be substantially the same as or slightly longer than the length of the priming roller in the longitudinal direction.
本発明によれば、ガス噴出ノズルから真下に噴出する乾燥ガスが、プライミングローラの表面に斜めに当たるので、プライミングローラ上の洗浄液が効率良く吹き飛ばされ、且つ効率よく乾燥させることができる。 According to the present invention, since the dry gas ejected right below from the gas ejection nozzle strikes the surface of the priming roller at an angle, the cleaning liquid on the priming roller can be efficiently blown off and dried efficiently.
また、新液シャワーノズルとまたは循環液シャワーノズルの下方にはプライミングローラの表面に付着している塗布液を掻き落とすスキージがバネを利用して調整可能に配置することにより、プライミングローラに当たるスキージの位置を自由に変えることができるので、プライミングローラに不均一に付着する塗布液をスキージ及びプライミングローラのどちらにも負荷をかけずに掻き落とすことができる。 In addition, a squeegee that scrapes off the coating liquid adhering to the surface of the priming roller is disposed below the new liquid shower nozzle or the circulating liquid shower nozzle so as to be adjustable using a spring, so that the squeegee that hits the priming roller Since the position can be freely changed, the coating liquid that adheres unevenly to the priming roller can be scraped off without applying a load to either the squeegee or the priming roller.
更に、新液シャワーノズル及び乾燥ガス噴出ノズルの後方から前記洗浄槽全体の排気を取る排気口を開口していることにより、洗浄槽全体の排気を乾燥ガス噴出ノズル及び新液シャワーノズルの後方から引けるので、洗浄後のプライミングローラ表面に付着している洗浄液の乾燥もより促進される。 Further, by opening an exhaust port for exhausting the entire cleaning tank from behind the new liquid shower nozzle and dry gas jet nozzle, the exhaust of the entire cleaning tank can be exhausted from behind the dry gas jet nozzle and new liquid shower nozzle. Therefore, drying of the cleaning liquid adhering to the surface of the priming roller after cleaning is further promoted.
また、新液シャワーノズル、循環液シャワーノズル、スキージ、乾燥ガス噴出ノズル、排気口の長さを、前記プライミングローラの長手方向の長さと略同一か又は若干長めにすることで、プライミングローラを均一に処理することが可能となる。 In addition, the lengths of the new liquid shower nozzle, circulating liquid shower nozzle, squeegee, dry gas jet nozzle, and exhaust port are made substantially the same as or slightly longer than the length of the priming roller in the longitudinal direction, thereby making the priming roller uniform. Can be processed.
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は本発明に係る予備吐出装置の断面図、図２は蓋体を持ち上げた状態を示す図、図３は本乾燥ガス噴出ノズルの噴出方向を示した図、図４は別実施例に係る予備吐出装置の断面図である。 Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. 1 is a cross-sectional view of a preliminary discharge device according to the present invention, FIG. 2 is a view showing a state in which a lid is lifted, FIG. 3 is a view showing an ejection direction of a main dry gas ejection nozzle, and FIG. It is sectional drawing of the preliminary discharge apparatus which concerns.
予備吐出装置は、洗浄液を貯留する洗浄槽１内に円筒状プライミングローラ２を回転自在に配置している。この円筒状プライミングローラローラ２はステンレス、アルミ、チタン等で形成され、その寸法は直径が３０〜１００ｍｍ、長さがスリットノズル３の長手方向長さよりも若干大きく設定され、予備吐出時にはスリットノズル３下端（ノズル孔）との間隔は２５〜３００μｍとなる。 In the preliminary discharge device, a cylindrical priming roller 2 is rotatably disposed in a cleaning tank 1 for storing a cleaning liquid. The cylindrical priming roller roller 2 is made of stainless steel, aluminum, titanium or the like, and its dimensions are set to 30 to 100 mm in diameter and the length is set slightly larger than the length in the longitudinal direction of the slit nozzle 3. The distance from the lower end (nozzle hole) is 25 to 300 μm.
また、開放された洗浄槽１上面には蓋体４，５を洗浄槽１に対して設け、これら蓋体４，５の内端を円筒状プライミングローラ２に接近させて洗浄液の蒸発をできるだけ防いでいる。そして、蓋体４には循環する洗浄液を噴出する循環液シャワーノズル６を設け、蓋体５には新液シャワーノズル７と空気，窒素ガスなどの乾燥ガスを噴出するノズル８を設けている。 Further, lids 4 and 5 are provided on the upper surface of the opened cleaning tank 1 with respect to the cleaning tank 1, and the inner ends of these lids 4 and 5 are brought close to the cylindrical priming roller 2 to prevent evaporation of the cleaning liquid as much as possible. It is out. The lid 4 is provided with a circulating liquid shower nozzle 6 for ejecting a circulating cleaning liquid, and the lid 5 is provided with a new liquid shower nozzle 7 and a nozzle 8 for ejecting a dry gas such as air or nitrogen gas.
図３に示すように、乾燥ガス噴出ノズル７のガス噴出方向は真下（鉛直方向）になっている。このように真下にガスを供給することで、プライミングローラ２の表面に斜め上方から乾燥ガスが当てることになり、プライミングローラ表面の洗浄液を効率良く吹き飛したり、乾燥させたりすることができる。 As shown in FIG. 3, the gas ejection direction of the dry gas ejection nozzle 7 is directly below (vertical direction). By supplying the gas directly below in this way, the dry gas is applied to the surface of the priming roller 2 obliquely from above, and the cleaning liquid on the surface of the priming roller can be efficiently blown out or dried.
また、前記循環液シャワーノズル６及び新液シャワーノズル７の下方には、プライミングローラ２の表面に接触するスキージ９，１０が配置されている。これらスキージ９，１０は前記洗浄槽１側に取り付けられ、プライミングローラ２の表面への当接圧および突出量はバネ９ａ,１０ａにて調整可能とされている。 Further, below the circulating fluid shower nozzle 6 and the new fluid shower nozzle 7, squeegees 9 and 10 that are in contact with the surface of the priming roller 2 are arranged. The squeegees 9 and 10 are attached to the cleaning tank 1 side, and the contact pressure and the protruding amount on the surface of the priming roller 2 can be adjusted by springs 9a and 10a.
このように位置調整をバネを介して行なうと、その動きはフレキシブルであり、プライミングローラ２に不均一に付着する塗布液に対してもある一定の力でもって接触する。固定されたスキージのように掻き落とし残しや反対にスキージ自身でプライミングローラを傷つけたりすることがない。 When the position adjustment is performed through the spring in this way, the movement is flexible, and the coating liquid that adheres unevenly to the priming roller 2 contacts with a certain force. Like a fixed squeegee, it is not left behind, and on the contrary, the squeegee itself does not damage the priming roller.
また、洗浄槽１の側部には排気ダクト１１が設けられ、この排気ダクト１１の開口１１ａは前記新液シャワーノズル７及び乾燥ガス噴出ノズル８の後方（背面側）に位置している。このように、洗浄槽全体の排気を乾燥ガス噴出ノズル８と新液シャワーノズル７の後方からひくことで、プライミングローラ表面の乾燥が促進される。 Further, an exhaust duct 11 is provided at a side portion of the cleaning tank 1, and an opening 11 a of the exhaust duct 11 is located behind (on the back side of) the fresh liquid shower nozzle 7 and the dry gas ejection nozzle 8. In this way, the exhaust of the entire cleaning tank is drawn from behind the dry gas jet nozzle 8 and the new liquid shower nozzle 7, thereby promoting the drying of the priming roller surface.
また、洗浄槽１内には回収路につながる液面調整用排液部材１２が臨んでいる。
この液面調整用排液部材１２は上端を排液口とするとともに上下位置調整可能とされ、最上位の位置で洗浄液の液面がプライミングローラ２の下端よりも上に、最下位の位置で洗浄液の液面がプライミングローラ２の下端よりも下になるようにしている。そして、洗浄液が清浄な場合には液面調整用排液部材１２を高い位置としてプライミングローラ２の下端を直接洗浄液中に浸漬せしめ、洗浄液中に塗布液濃度などが増えてきた場合には、液面調整用排液部材１２を下げ、洗浄液の液面からプライミングローラ２を浮かせ、シャワーノズル等でプライミングローラ２の表面を洗浄する。
In addition, a liquid level adjusting drain member 12 connected to the recovery path faces the cleaning tank 1.
The liquid level adjusting drainage member 12 has an upper end as a drainage port and can be adjusted in the vertical position. At the uppermost position, the liquid level of the cleaning liquid is above the lower end of the priming roller 2 and at the lowermost position. The liquid level of the cleaning liquid is set lower than the lower end of the priming roller 2. When the cleaning liquid is clean, the lower surface of the priming roller 2 is directly immersed in the cleaning liquid with the liquid level adjusting drain member 12 at a high position. When the concentration of the coating liquid increases in the cleaning liquid, The surface adjusting drain member 12 is lowered, the priming roller 2 is lifted from the surface of the cleaning liquid, and the surface of the priming roller 2 is cleaned with a shower nozzle or the like.
前記循環液シャワーノズル６及び新液シャワーノズル７は２流体ノズルを用いてもよい。循環液シャワーノズル６は1つだけではなく、位置を変えて上部循環液シャワーノズルと下部循環液シャワーノズルとに分けてもよい。 The circulating fluid shower nozzle 6 and the new fluid shower nozzle 7 may be a two-fluid nozzle. The circulating fluid shower nozzle 6 may be divided into an upper circulating fluid shower nozzle and a lower circulating fluid shower nozzle by changing the position instead of only one.
また、循環液シャワーノズル６は、プライミングローラ２に対して循環液を供給することができればよいので、その位置はあまり厳密ではない。ノズル開口もスリット状にする必要はなく、多少ムラになっても問題ないのでスポット状でもよい。 Further, since the circulating fluid shower nozzle 6 only needs to be able to supply the circulating fluid to the priming roller 2, its position is not so strict. The nozzle openings do not need to be slit-shaped, and may be spot-shaped because there is no problem even if they become somewhat uneven.
循環液は図４に示すように、洗浄槽１の底面に設けられた循環液取り入れ口１３からポンプを介して吸引され、フィルタ１４を通して循環液シャワーノズル６へ供給される場合と、液面調整用排液部材１２からポンプを介して吸引され、フィルタ１５を通して循環液シャワーノズル６へ供給される場合が考えられる。As shown in FIG. 4 , the circulating fluid is sucked through the pump from the circulating fluid inlet 13 provided on the bottom surface of the cleaning tank 1 and supplied to the circulating fluid shower nozzle 6 through the filter 14. It is conceivable that the liquid draining member 12 is sucked through a pump and supplied to the circulating liquid shower nozzle 6 through the filter 15.
また、各シャワーノズルや乾燥ガス噴出ノズル、排気口、スキージはそれぞれプライミングローラの長手方向の長さと略同一が若干長い程度とすることが好ましい。こうすることで、プライミングローラに対して均一な処理を行うことができる。 In addition, each shower nozzle, dry gas ejection nozzle, exhaust port, and squeegee are preferably substantially the same as the length of the priming roller in the longitudinal direction. By doing so, uniform processing can be performed on the priming roller.
更に、新液シャワーノズル７は最後の仕上げなので、その位置は重要である。新液シャワーノズルがプライミングローラに近すぎると新液がローラの跳ね返って新液シャワーノズル自身を汚してしまったり、反対に速すぎると充分な新液がプライミングローラに供給されなかったり、必要以上に液量がかかりすぎてしまったりする。よって、新液シャワーノズルの位置はできる限りプライミングローラの近くで尚且つ跳ね返りを最小限に抑えられる位置が好ましい。新液シャワーノズルの開口は均一にプライミングローラに対して洗浄液を供給するという点からもスリット状であることが好ましい。 Furthermore, the position of the new liquid shower nozzle 7 is important because it is the final finish. If the new liquid shower nozzle is too close to the priming roller, the new liquid will splash back and stain the new liquid shower nozzle itself, or if it is too fast, sufficient new liquid will not be supplied to the priming roller. Too much liquid is applied. Therefore, the position of the new liquid shower nozzle is preferably as close as possible to the priming roller and the position where bounce is minimized. The opening of the new liquid shower nozzle is preferably slit-shaped from the viewpoint that the cleaning liquid is uniformly supplied to the priming roller.
以上において、塗布液が付着したプライミングローラ２が時計方向に回転すると、プライミングローラ表面に対してシャワーノズル６により循環液が供給されスキージ９によって掻き落とされ、そのまま貯留されている洗浄液の中を潜り、２つめのスキージ１０によって頑固な付着物をそぎ落とす。最後に新液シャワーノズル７できれいに洗い流す。この後、乾燥ガス噴出ノズル８から乾燥ガスを吹き付けて、洗浄液を吹き飛ばしてプライミングローラ表面を乾燥させる。この時排気も引いているので、排気による乾燥も促進される。 In the above, when the priming roller 2 to which the coating liquid is attached rotates in the clockwise direction, the circulating liquid is supplied to the surface of the priming roller by the shower nozzle 6 and is scraped off by the squeegee 9, and is submerged in the stored cleaning liquid. Stubborn deposits are scraped off by the second squeegee 10. Finally, it is washed away with the new liquid shower nozzle 7. Thereafter, a dry gas is blown from the dry gas jet nozzle 8, and the cleaning liquid is blown off to dry the surface of the priming roller. At this time, exhaust is also drawn, so that drying by exhaust is also promoted.
