Description

本発明は光照射装置に係り、更に詳しくは、被照射体に対して光を効率良く照射することができる光照射装置に関する。   The present invention relates to a light irradiation apparatus, and more particularly to a light irradiation apparatus capable of efficiently irradiating light to an irradiated object.

半導体ウエハ(以下、単に、「ウエハ」と称する)の処理装置においては、ウエハの回路面に保護用の接着シートを貼付して裏面研削を行ったり、ダイシングテープを貼付して複数のチップに個片化したりする処理が行われる。このような処理に使用される接着シートには、接着剤に紫外線硬化型(光反応型)のものが採用されており、上記のような処理の後、紫外線照射装置により接着剤を硬化させることによって接着力を弱めて、ウエハが破損しないように容易に剥離が行えるようになっている。   In a processing apparatus for a semiconductor wafer (hereinafter simply referred to as “wafer”), a protective adhesive sheet is applied to the circuit surface of the wafer to perform back surface grinding, or a dicing tape is applied to a plurality of chips. A process of tidy up is performed. The adhesive sheet used for such treatment employs an ultraviolet curing type (photoreactive type) adhesive, and after the treatment as described above, the adhesive is cured by an ultraviolet irradiation device. As a result, the adhesive force is weakened so that the wafer can be easily peeled away so as not to break.

前記紫外線照射装置としては、例えば、特許文献1に開示されている。同文献における紫外線照射装置は、接着シートを介してウエハがリングフレームに一体化された被照射体を吸着保持する吸着機構と、上部が開放するとともに底部がガラス類で構成されたハウジングと、前記底部の下方から紫外線を照射する光源とを備えている。被照射体は、ハウジングを吸着機構で閉塞することで当該ハウジング内に位置するようになっており、この状態で、前記底部から紫外線を透過させて被照射体に照射するようになっている。
特開2004−281430号公報
For example, Patent Document 1 discloses the ultraviolet irradiation device. The ultraviolet irradiation device in the document includes an adsorption mechanism for adsorbing and holding an irradiated object in which a wafer is integrated into a ring frame via an adhesive sheet, a housing having an upper portion opened and a bottom portion made of glass, And a light source for irradiating ultraviolet rays from below the bottom. The irradiated body is positioned in the housing by closing the housing with an adsorption mechanism, and in this state, the irradiated body is irradiated with ultraviolet rays from the bottom.
JP 2004-281430 A

しかしながら、特許文献1に開示された紫外線照射装置にあっては、底部の全領域を透過する紫外線により接着シートの接着剤を硬化させる構成、つまり、一括若しくは全面照射であるため、光源から相対的に離れた部位の照度を確保すべく高出力ランプを使用しなければならず、装置が大型化するとともに消費電力が多くなってランニングコストが高騰する、という不都合がある。従って、被照射体の平面積が大きいときは、それに対応して広い領域に紫外線を照射することのできるランプが必要となり、これが汎用性を低下させる要因となる。   However, in the ultraviolet irradiation device disclosed in Patent Document 1, the adhesive of the adhesive sheet is cured by ultraviolet rays that are transmitted through the entire area of the bottom portion, that is, because the irradiation is performed all at once or relative to the light source. In order to ensure the illuminance of the part far away, a high-power lamp must be used, and there is a disadvantage that the apparatus becomes larger and the power consumption increases and the running cost increases. Accordingly, when the plane area of the irradiated object is large, a lamp capable of irradiating ultraviolet rays over a corresponding wide area is required, which causes a decrease in versatility.

[発明の目的]
本発明は、このような不都合に着目して案出されたものであり、その目的は、部分照射により、紫外線等の光を被照射体に対して効率よく照射し、消費電力を軽減しつつランニングコストを抑制し、しかも、光の外部への漏れを防止することのできる光照射装置を提供することにある。
[Object of invention]
The present invention has been devised by paying attention to such inconveniences, and its purpose is to efficiently irradiate the irradiated object with light such as ultraviolet rays by partial irradiation while reducing power consumption. An object of the present invention is to provide a light irradiation device capable of suppressing running cost and preventing leakage of light to the outside.

前記目的を達成するため、本発明は、光反応型の接着シートが貼付若しくは仮着された被照射体に光を照射する光照射装置において、
内部に光照射ユニットを備えるとともに、光を照射する照射口を備えたハウジングと、前記照射口を横断する方向に相対移動可能に設けられるとともに、前記被照射体を受容する受容口を有するスライド手段と、前記被照射体を保持するとともに、前記受容口を通じて被照射体をスライド手段の内部に配置させたときに当該スライド手段に係合して受容口を閉塞する保持手段と、前記照射口を開閉する開閉手段と、この開閉手段を所定方向に付勢する付勢手段とを備え、前記開閉手段は、前記付勢手段によって前記照射口を常時開放する方向に付勢されているとともに、前記スライド手段の移動に追従して前記照射口を開閉する、という構成を採っている。
In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a light irradiation apparatus for irradiating light to an irradiated object to which a photoreactive adhesive sheet is attached or temporarily attached.
A slide means having a light irradiation unit therein, a housing having an irradiation port for irradiating light, and a receiving port for receiving the irradiated object, and being provided so as to be relatively movable in a direction transverse to the irradiation port. Holding means for holding the irradiated body and engaging the sliding means when the irradiated body is disposed inside the sliding means through the receiving port, and closing the receiving port; An opening / closing means for opening and closing; and an urging means for urging the opening / closing means in a predetermined direction, wherein the opening / closing means is urged by the urging means in a direction to always open the irradiation port, and The irradiation opening is opened and closed following the movement of the sliding means.

本発明において、前記開閉手段は、前記スライド手段の移動方向に沿って前記光照射ユニットを中間に挟むように配置された第1及び第2の開閉手段を含み、これら開閉手段は、前記スライド手段が紫外線照射待機位置から紫外線照射完了位置に向かって照射口を横断する際に、第1の開閉手段が照射口を次第に開放する方向に移動する一方、第2の開閉手段が照射口を次第に閉塞する方向に移動する、という構成を採用することが好ましい。   In the present invention, the opening / closing means includes first and second opening / closing means arranged so as to sandwich the light irradiation unit in the middle along the moving direction of the sliding means, and the opening / closing means includes the sliding means. When the irradiation crosses the irradiation port from the ultraviolet irradiation standby position toward the ultraviolet irradiation completion position, the first opening / closing means moves in a direction to gradually open the irradiation port, while the second opening / closing means gradually closes the irradiation port. It is preferable to adopt a configuration of moving in a moving direction.

また、前記開閉手段は、前記光照射ユニットの側方に単一配置とされ、当該開閉手段は、前記スライド手段が紫外線照射待機位置から紫外線照射完了位置に向かって照射口を横断する際に、前記照射口を次第に開放する方向に移動する構成を採ってもよい。   Further, the opening and closing means is a single arrangement on the side of the light irradiation unit, the opening and closing means, when the slide means crosses the irradiation port from the ultraviolet irradiation standby position toward the ultraviolet irradiation completion position, You may take the structure which moves to the direction which opens the said irradiation opening gradually.

更に、本発明は、前記開閉手段の位置を検出する位置検出手段を含み、前記照射口の開閉が適性に行われないときに、所定の信号を外部に出力するように設けることができる。   Furthermore, the present invention can include a position detection unit that detects a position of the opening / closing unit, and can output a predetermined signal to the outside when the irradiation port is not properly opened / closed.

本発明によれば、スライド手段の移動に追従して開閉手段が照射口を開閉する構成であるため、被照射体を受容したスライド手段が照射口を横断する際に、当該照射口を開放して紫外線を照射しつつ部分照射を行うことができる。従って、従来のような一括若しくは全面照射を行う必要がなくなり、高出力ランプを使用することなく、光の出力は従来装置に比べて小さくても足りるようになり、省エネルギータイプの光照射装置を提供することが可能となる。しかも、開閉手段は、被照射体に対する光照射に必要な領域以外を閉塞するため、紫外線等の有害な光が外部へ漏れることを防止でき、当該光が作業者の目に入ってしまうような不都合も回避可能となる。
また、開閉手段を単一とした構成では、ハウジングの小型化を達成することができ、特に、光照射面積が小さい被照射体を対象とした場合に実益をもたらす。
更に、検知手段を設けた構成では、開閉手段の意図しない動作不良が生じて紫外線の照射が適性に行われない、といった不都合を回避することができる。
According to the present invention, since the opening / closing means opens and closes the irradiation port following the movement of the slide means, the irradiation port is opened when the slide means receiving the irradiated object crosses the irradiation port. Thus, partial irradiation can be performed while irradiating ultraviolet rays. Therefore, it is not necessary to perform batch or whole-surface irradiation as in the past, and the light output can be smaller than that of the conventional device without using a high-power lamp, providing an energy-saving light irradiation device. It becomes possible to do. Moreover, since the opening / closing means closes the area other than that necessary for light irradiation to the irradiated object, harmful light such as ultraviolet rays can be prevented from leaking to the outside, and the light enters the eyes of the operator. Inconvenience can be avoided.
In addition, the configuration with a single opening / closing means can achieve a reduction in the size of the housing, and is particularly beneficial when an object to be irradiated having a small light irradiation area is targeted.
Furthermore, in the configuration provided with the detection means, it is possible to avoid the inconvenience that an unintentional malfunction of the opening / closing means occurs and ultraviolet rays are not properly irradiated.

A positioning hole 33A is formed. Further, the position of the slide body 26 is regulated via the stopper 35 when it is at the ultraviolet irradiation standby position P1. The stopper 35 includes a stopper piece 36 provided on the left side wall 30 in FIG.

前記保持手段16は、支持基板39と、当該支持基板39よりも小径に設けられるとともに、図示しない減圧ポンプに接続されウエハWの形状に対応した吸着プレート40と、支持基板39の上面側に連結されてY軸方向に延びるアーム41と、当該アーム41をZ軸方向に移動可能に支持するZ軸ロボット42と、このZ軸ロボット42をX軸方向に移動可能に支持するX軸ロボット43とを備えて構成されている。吸着プレート40は、下面側を吸着面として図示しない吸着孔が設けられ、ウエハWを吸着保持可能になっている。なお、ハウジング14の隣接位置には、ウエハWの支持テーブル45が配置されている。また、アーム41の下面側には係合ピン47が突設され、位置決め穴33Aに係脱するようになっており、係合状態において、吸着プレート40及びウエハWがスライド本体26内に位置し、支持基板39がスライド本体26に係合して受容口29を閉塞する。   The holding means 16 is provided with a support substrate 39, a diameter smaller than that of the support substrate 39, and connected to a suction plate 40 corresponding to the shape of the wafer W connected to a decompression pump (not shown) and an upper surface side of the support substrate 39. An arm 41 that extends in the Y-axis direction, a Z-axis robot 42 that supports the arm 41 movably in the Z-axis direction, and an X-axis robot 43 that supports the Z-axis robot 42 movably in the X-axis direction. It is configured with. The suction plate 40 is provided with suction holes (not shown) with the lower surface side as the suction surface, and can hold the wafer W by suction. A support table 45 for the wafer W is disposed adjacent to the housing 14. An engaging pin 47 projects from the lower surface side of the arm 41 so as to be engaged with and disengaged from the positioning hole 33A. In the engaged state, the suction plate 40 and the wafer W are positioned in the slide body 26. The support substrate 39 engages with the slide body 26 and closes the receiving port 29.

前記開閉手段17は、図2に示されるように、紫外線照射ユニット11を中間に挟んで対称配置された第1の開閉手段17Aと、右側に配置された第2の開閉手段17Bとにより構成されている。また、付勢手段18は、各開閉手段17A、17Bを付勢する第1、第2の付勢手段18A、18Bにより構成されている。なお、第2の開閉手段17B及び第2の付勢手段18Bについては、第1の開閉手段17A及び第2の付勢手段18Aの末尾符号「A」を「B」に置き換えれば説明できるため説明を簡略化する。   As shown in FIG. 2, the opening / closing means 17 is composed of a first opening / closing means 17A arranged symmetrically with the ultraviolet irradiation unit 11 in between, and a second opening / closing means 17B arranged on the right side. ing. The urging means 18 includes first and second urging means 18A and 18B that urge the opening / closing means 17A and 17B. The second opening / closing means 17B and the second urging means 18B can be explained by replacing the suffix “A” of the first opening / closing means 17A and the second urging means 18A with “B”. To simplify.

前記第1の開閉手段17Aは、ハウジング14の照射口12を閉塞可能な大きさに設けけられるとともに、起立部51Aを有する開閉プレート50Aにより構成されている。起立部51Aは、スライド本体26の側壁30の内面に当接可能な高さに設けられている。   The first opening / closing means 17A is provided with a size capable of closing the irradiation port 12 of the housing 14, and is configured by an opening / closing plate 50A having an upright portion 51A. The upright portion 51 </ b> A is provided at a height that can contact the inner surface of the side wall 30 of the slide body 26.

前記第1の付勢手段18Aはエアシリンダ53Aにより構成され、このエアシリンダ53Aのスライダ54Aに開閉プレート50Aが支持され、当該開閉プレート50Aを図2中矢印a方向に常に付勢するようになっている。これにより開閉プレート50Aは、スライド本体26が図2中左側に移動することを条件に、スライド本体26に追従して開閉プレート50Aが移動して照射口12を開放する。   The first urging means 18A is constituted by an air cylinder 53A, and an opening / closing plate 50A is supported by a slider 54A of the air cylinder 53A, and always urges the opening / closing plate 50A in the direction of arrow a in FIG. ing. As a result, the opening / closing plate 50A opens the irradiation port 12 by moving the opening / closing plate 50A following the slide body 26 on the condition that the slide body 26 moves to the left in FIG.

一方、前記第2の開閉手段17Bを構成する開閉プレート50Bは、図2中矢印b方向に付勢されている。これにより開閉プレート50Bは、スライド本体26が図2中左側に移動することを条件に、右側壁30に起立部51Bが係合しスライド本体26に追従して開閉プレート50Bが移動して照射口12を閉塞する。   On the other hand, the opening / closing plate 50B constituting the second opening / closing means 17B is urged in the direction of arrow b in FIG. Thereby, the opening / closing plate 50B is moved on the condition that the slide body 26 moves to the left side in FIG. 12 is closed.

前記位置検出手段19は、シリンダ53Aの左右両側に配置されたオートスイッチからなり、開放位置検出スイッチ60Aと、閉塞位置検出スイッチ61Aとを含む。開放位置検出スイッチ60Aは、開閉プレート50Aが開放位置(図6参照)に達したときにスライダ54Aを検出して図示しない制御装置に信号を出力する。一方、閉塞位置検出スイッチ61Aは、開閉プレート50Aが閉塞位置(図2参照)に達したときにスライダ54Aを検出して同様に信号を出力するようになっている。なお、制御装置は、スライド本体26が所定の条件下に位置するときに、前記スイッチ60A、61Aからの信号が入力されなければ外部に所定の信号を出力する。   The position detecting means 19 is composed of auto switches arranged on both the left and right sides of the cylinder 53A, and includes an open position detecting switch 60A and a closing position detecting switch 61A. The open position detection switch 60A detects the slider 54A and outputs a signal to a control device (not shown) when the open / close plate 50A reaches the open position (see FIG. 6). On the other hand, the closing position detection switch 61A detects the slider 54A and similarly outputs a signal when the opening / closing plate 50A reaches the closing position (see FIG. 2). The control device outputs a predetermined signal to the outside when the slide body 26 is positioned under a predetermined condition, unless a signal is input from the switches 60A and 61A.

次に、本実施形態に係る紫外線照射方法について、図4ないし図7をも参照しながら説明する。   Next, the ultraviolet irradiation method according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS.

所定の処理が施された接着シートS付ウエハWが図示しない移載アーム等を介して支持テーブル45の上面に移載されると、X、Z軸ロボット43、42を介して吸着プレート40がウエハWを吸着保持してスライド本体26の真上に移動する。その後、Z軸ロボット42を介して吸着プレート40が所定量下降することで、ウエハWがスライド本体26内に受容され、受容口29を閉塞する。この時、ピン47がブラケット33の位置決め穴33Aに係合する。ピン47とブラケット33との係合が図示しない検知手段によって検知されると、ストッパ35によるスライド本体26の固定が解除されるとともに、前記閉塞位置検出スイッチ61A及び開放位置検出スイッチ60Bがそれぞれスライダ54A、54Bを検知していることを条件として、以後の制御に移行する。   When the wafer W with the adhesive sheet S subjected to the predetermined processing is transferred onto the upper surface of the support table 45 via a transfer arm or the like (not shown), the suction plate 40 is moved via the X and Z axis robots 43 and 42. The wafer W is sucked and held and moved directly above the slide body 26. Thereafter, the suction plate 40 is lowered by a predetermined amount via the Z-axis robot 42, whereby the wafer W is received in the slide body 26 and closes the receiving port 29. At this time, the pin 47 engages with the positioning hole 33 </ b> A of the bracket 33. When the engagement between the pin 47 and the bracket 33 is detected by a detection means (not shown), the fixing of the slide body 26 by the stopper 35 is released, and the closing position detecting switch 61A and the opening position detecting switch 60B are respectively connected to the slider 54A. , 54B is detected, and the process proceeds to the subsequent control.

X軸ロボット43が駆動することにより、図5に示されるように、スライド本体26がX軸方向に沿って左側に移動を開始する。すると、開閉プレート50Aが第1の付勢手段18Aの付勢力によってスライド本体26に追従移動して照射口12を次第に開放し、紫外線照射ユニット11によりライン状に収束された紫外線が接着シートSに照射され、当該接着シートSの接着剤を硬化反応させる。   When the X-axis robot 43 is driven, the slide body 26 starts to move to the left along the X-axis direction as shown in FIG. Then, the opening / closing plate 50A is moved following the slide body 26 by the urging force of the first urging means 18A to gradually open the irradiation port 12, and the ultraviolet rays converged in a line shape by the ultraviolet irradiation unit 11 are applied to the adhesive sheet S. Irradiated to cause the adhesive of the adhesive sheet S to undergo a curing reaction.

図6に示されるように、スライド本体26が更に移動すると、起立部51Aが照射口12に当接するとともに、右側壁30が起立部51Bに当接して開閉プレート50Bが左側に移動を開始し、照射口12から外部に紫外線が漏れることがないように、スライド本体26と相互に作用して照射口12を次第に閉塞することとなる。なお、この開閉プレート50Aの開放動作において、スライド本体26の左側壁30が照射口12の左端を通り過ぎた時点で、スライダ54Aが開放位置検出スイッチ60Aによって検出されないときは、開閉プレート50Aが移動を停止し、紫外線が接着シートSに照射されずに処理が完了してしまうことになる。そこで、制御手段は上記のような所定条件において、開放位置検出スイッチ60Aからの信号入力がないときに、警告手段(回転灯やブザー)等の外部装置を作動させる信号を出力し、オペレータ等に異常を知らせるようになっている。   As shown in FIG. 6, when the slide body 26 further moves, the upright portion 51A comes into contact with the irradiation port 12, the right side wall 30 comes into contact with the upright portion 51B, and the opening / closing plate 50B starts moving to the left side. The irradiation port 12 is gradually closed by interacting with the slide body 26 so that ultraviolet rays do not leak outside from the irradiation port 12. In the opening operation of the opening / closing plate 50A, when the slider 54A is not detected by the opening position detection switch 60A when the left side wall 30 of the slide body 26 passes the left end of the irradiation port 12, the opening / closing plate 50A moves. It stops, and the process is completed without irradiating the adhesive sheet S with ultraviolet rays. Therefore, the control means outputs a signal for operating an external device such as a warning means (a rotating lamp or a buzzer) when there is no signal input from the open position detection switch 60A under the predetermined conditions as described above, to the operator or the like. Announce the abnormality.

スライド本体26が更に移動して、図7に示される紫外線照射完了位置P2に達することで、紫外線照射が完了する。この紫外線照射完了位置P2は、紫外線照射ユニット11を中心としたときに、紫外線照射待機位置P1と線対称位置に設定されている。   When the slide body 26 further moves and reaches the ultraviolet irradiation completion position P2 shown in FIG. 7, the ultraviolet irradiation is completed. The ultraviolet irradiation completion position P2 is set to a position symmetrical with the ultraviolet irradiation standby position P1 when the ultraviolet irradiation unit 11 is at the center.

その後、スライド手段15は、上記の動作と逆の動作を行って、保持手段16を介して紫外線照射待機位置P1に復帰され、ストッパ35によって固定される。この復帰動作中にも紫外線が接着シートSに照射され、開閉プレート50Bの開放動作において、スライド本体26の右側壁30が照射口12の右端を通り過ぎた時点で、スライダ54Bが開放位置検出スイッチ60Bによって検出されないときは、上記同様、警告手段等を介してオペレータ等に異常を知らせるようになっている。次いで、紫外線照射済みのウエハWは、保持手段16によって支持テーブル45に移載され、図示しない移載アームを介して次工程に移載される。そして、次に紫外線照射を行うための新たなウエハが支持テーブル45に移載された後、上記同様の動作が繰り返されることで、順次紫外線照射が行われる。   Thereafter, the slide means 15 performs an operation reverse to the above operation, returns to the ultraviolet irradiation standby position P1 via the holding means 16, and is fixed by the stopper 35. During this return operation, ultraviolet rays are applied to the adhesive sheet S, and when the right side wall 30 of the slide body 26 passes the right end of the irradiation port 12 in the opening operation of the opening / closing plate 50B, the slider 54B is opened by the opening position detection switch 60B. If not detected, the operator is notified of the abnormality via a warning means or the like as described above. Next, the wafer W that has been irradiated with ultraviolet rays is transferred to the support table 45 by the holding means 16 and transferred to the next step via a transfer arm (not shown). Then, after a new wafer for next ultraviolet irradiation is transferred to the support table 45, the same operation is repeated, so that the ultraviolet irradiation is sequentially performed.

従って、このような実施形態によれば、スライド本体26内に受容されたウエハWが照射口12の上方を横断する方向に移動する際に、閉塞された空間内でウエハWに紫外線を照射することができる、いう効果を得る。   Therefore, according to such an embodiment, when the wafer W received in the slide body 26 moves in a direction crossing the irradiation port 12, the wafer W is irradiated with ultraviolet rays in the closed space. The effect that can be.
