Description

[0001] PHOTO MASK TRANSFERING SYSTEM [0002]

Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a photomask transfer system for preventing bending phenomenon of a pellicle, which is a film for protecting a pattern (Reticle, Photo Mask, Mask), and haze of a surface of a photomask, When a pellicle bending phenomenon occurs, a photomask is applied to the exposure equipment of the semiconductor manufacturing process, and when the IRIS of the photomask surface is executed, if the bending phenomenon occurs, an error occurs (error occurs) The haze of the surface of the photomask, which is caused by the haze phenomenon of the surface of the photomask, which is a circuit substrate in the exposure equipment of the semiconductor manufacturing process, Chip defect phenomenon is accompanied. The wafer chip defect is caused by the haze phenomenon of the photomask, that is, the circuit pattern In order to prevent pellicle bending phenomenon and haze phenomenon, it is necessary to efficiently automate the photomask stacking system to prevent the pellicle bending phenomenon and the haze phenomenon, as the sharpness of the wafer pattern is low due to the transmittance of a laser or a light source, To a photomask transfer system having a function of preventing a pellicle banding phenomenon and a function of cutting off unnecessary gas ions which is a source of a haze phenomenon.

In general, a reticle refers to a photomask used in exposure equipment for a semiconductor process, and is a circuit board for producing a large number of semiconductor chips on a wafer. A large number of semiconductor chips are completed by exposing an original plate of a semiconductor circuit and reducing the original plate of the circuit using an optic to form a circuit pattern received on the wafer.

Referring to FIG. 1, a photomask 10 used in an exposure apparatus includes a quartz substrate 20 having a circuit pattern (not shown) for shielding light on one surface thereof, and a quartz substrate 20 for attaching a pellicle A pellicle frame (30) (30), and a pellicle (32) in the form of a transparent film attached to the pellicle frame (30).

The pellicle frame 30 and the pellicle 32 are provided on the surface of the quartz substrate 20 on which the circuit pattern is formed so as to prevent particles from adhering to the circuit pattern. The shape of the broken line of the particle shape is irradiated to cause a pattern defect on the wafer. In addition, if a haze phenomenon occurs in the photomask circuit pattern, it causes a defect on the wafer circuit as well. An air hole 31 is formed on the side surface of the pellicle frame 30 so as to communicate with the outside air to prevent bending phenomenon of the pellicle due to temperature or atmospheric pressure.

The air holes 31 control the pressure in the pellicle 32 and serve to discharge the gas generated from the bonding surface of the pellicle 32 or the glass substrate 20 to the outside. The air hole 31 is formed not only by discharging gas from the inside of the pellicle 32 but also by discharging carbon dioxide (CO 2 ), ammonia (NH 3 ), nitrogen dioxide (NO 2 ), sulfurous acid gas (SO 2 ) SO 4 ) and the like serve as passages for entering the inside of the pellicle 32. If such a gas enters the pellicle 32 from the outside and is frequently exposed to the exposure light, a chemical reaction is caused to generate a salt in the vicinity of the circuit pattern 21, causing a haze defect, There is a problem in that the shape of the circuit pattern 21 in the circuit pattern 21 is deformed.
