Abstract
Description
The present invention relates to a photomask aligning adapter unit for pattern inspection, and more particularly, to a photomask aligning adapter unit for pattern inspection for inspecting whether a pattern is accurately formed on a substrate such as a wafer or a glass.
In general, a plurality of patterns are formed on a substrate such as a wafer or glass (hereinafter referred to as a substrate to be confirmed) through photolithography in order to manufacture a semiconductor device or an LCD panel. These patterns must be precisely formed since they are electrically connected to a plurality of devices. Therefore, it is necessary to confirm whether or not the patterns are accurately formed after the patterns are formed on the substrate to be inspected.
For this purpose, the photomask on which the confirmation pattern is formed must be accurately transferred to the upper side of the substrate to be identified. At this time, the apparatus for transferring the photomask to the upper portion of the substrate includes a plurality of adapters provided basically on the edge side of the jig frame on which the substrate to be inspected is placed, and a photomask for pattern inspection placed on the adapter, And an air spring for transferring to an aligned position. With this apparatus, the air spring pushes the photomask to transfer it to a specific alignment position on the upper side of the substrate to be inspected, and thereafter, the confirmation pattern formed on the photomask and the pattern formed on the confirmation target substrate are compared with each other using a camera It is confirmed whether or not the pattern is accurately formed on the target substrate.
Prior art related to this is disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2001-0111048 under the names of alignment method, registration inspection method and photomask.
However, as the process of transferring the photomask is repeated to confirm the pattern, static electricity is generated between the quartz photomask and the adapter, which forms a attraction force to keep the photomask in close contact with the adapter, Even if the spring pushes the photomask, it causes the photomask to not be pressed well. In this case, the photomask is not correctly transferred to the alignment position, and as a result, it is impossible to know whether or not the pattern is accurately formed on the substrate to be checked.
On the other hand, the elastic force can be increased by the air spring in order to push the photomask, but in this case, the photomask is stopped by the static electricity, and suddenly pushed out.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in order to solve the above problems, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a photomask for pattern inspection which, when transferring a photomask for pattern inspection to a specific alignment position on the upper side of a substrate to be inspected, It is an object of the present invention to provide a photomask alignment adapter unit for inspection.
According to an aspect of the present invention, there is provided a photomask alignment adapter unit for pattern inspection,
As check target substrate (not shown), the pattern is formed is installed in the front and rear of the jig frame (J) that is seated to be a photomask (M) for testing the pattern is correct formed in the check target substrate mounted, the jig A pair of first leg bodies 12 (first leg body 12) provided in front of the frame J and provided with

According to the present invention, since the first, second, and third mounting ends of the first, second, and third adapters include first, second, and third inclined surfaces that are in point contact with corner portions of the photomask, 3 adapter to minimize the generation of static electricity. Accordingly, even if the pattern inspection is repeated to transfer the photomask, static electricity is not generated between the quartz photomask and the first, second, and third adapters, so that the photomask according to the static electricity is kept in close contact with the adapter It is possible to prevent the generation of attraction force, and thus, the air spring is pushed when the photomask M is pushed, so that the photomask can be precisely transferred to a certain alignment position. As a result, whether or not the pattern is accurately formed on the substrate to be confirmed Can be inspected.
The first, second, and third rest positions include the first, second, and third inclined faces that are in point contact with the edge portions of the photomask (M), thereby minimizing the generation of static electricity between the photomask and the first, .
In addition, since the first seating end, which occupies a relatively larger area than the second and third seating ends, is an engineering plastic that prevents the generation of static electricity, the generation of static electricity is prevented during repeated contact of the quartz- As a result, the cause of interruption of the photomask due to static electricity can be eliminated.
And the second and third mounting stages include the second and third horizontal surfaces connected to the second and third inclined surfaces so that the photomask pushed by the air spring can smoothly ride on the second and third horizontal surfaces with the second and third inclined surfaces So that the photomask can be transferred to the correct alignment position.
