Abstract

PURPOSE:To reclaim glass substrate without reducing thickness of used glass substrate of photo mask, by irradiating it with energy beam until flaws on the surface of the transparent glass substrate are melted, and the substrate is made flat optically. CONSTITUTION:A pattern image of used photo mask has been flawn and can not be used is released, the surface of glass substrate is washed with a chemical solution, so the glass surface is made clean. The surface is irradiated with energy beam (e.g., gas laser of carbonic acid gas laser), so the flaw parts of the plate glass are melted. The flaws of the plate glass are made flat optically. Consequently, the glass plate is reclaimed repeatedly without reducing thickness of the plate glass.

A photo mask is made using a photographic emulsion or a metal film on a flat surface of a transparent substrate such as glass. This photo mask depicts a pattern for manufacturing integrated circuits, and usually, several types of photo masks are used in sets to manufacture integrated circuits. Soda-lime glass was used by glass companies for photo masks and when the precision required for integrated circuits was low. Recently, with the demand for high-precision integrated circuits such as VLSIs, alumina-borosilicate-based low-strength glass and synthetic quartz glass have come to be used for photomask glass plates.

This is due to its small expansion coefficient, high mechanical strength, and excellent optical properties. However, this synthetic quartz glass plate has the disadvantage that it is several to several tens of times more expensive than the conventional soda-lime glass plate.

Therefore, silicon wafers are used to reduce costs.
(Attempts are being made to recover used photo masks that have become unusable due to scratches that were used for exposure.) The peeled and scratched glass plate is regenerated by polishing both sides with an abrasive using a surface plate.However, the scratches on the glass plate of the used mask are 5.
Some have a depth of about 0 microns, and when polishing both sides with an abrasive agent, the depth is at least 50 microns.
The glass plate will be polished. In general, the thickness standard for glass plates is within a tolerance of about 100 microns for a certain plate thickness, so if two rounds of recycled polishing are performed, the glass plate will become unusable after two rounds of recycled polishing. Become.

The pattern image of the used photomask, which has become unusable due to scratches due to FA exposure with silicon wafers, is peeled off using a chemical solution.Then, the surface of the glass plate is cleaned by cleaning with a chemical solution such as acid. Clean. Next, rub the scratched part of the glass plate until the scratch has no optical effect.
Fires an energy beam. A carbon dioxide laser is suitable as an energy beam, but any energy beam can be used as long as it is absorbed by the glass plate, melts the scratched part of the glass plate, and optically flattens the scratched part of the glass plate. - Beam is also fine. Further, the energy beam irradiation conditions may be such that the vitreous material is not evaporated but melted. When repairing scratches on a glass plate with a carbon dioxide laser, the beam diameter is 10 to 100 microns and the laser beam diameter is several to pi, 10
