Description
본 고안은 반도체 서프스캔(SUFSCAN)장비의 웨이퍼 척킹(WAFER CHUCKING)장치에 관한 것으로, 특히 웨이퍼의 뒷면에 이물질이 부착하는 것을 감소시키도록 하는데 적합한 반도체 서프스캔장비의 웨이퍼 척킹장치에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a wafer chucking device for semiconductor surf scan (SUFSCAN) equipment, and more particularly to a wafer chucking device for semiconductor surf scan equipment suitable for reducing the adhesion of foreign matter on the back surface of the wafer.
일반적으로 서프스캔(SUFSCAN)장비는 레이저(LASER)의 스캐터링(SCATTERING)을 이용하여 웨이퍼 상의 이물질(PARTICLE)을 디택트(DETECT)하는 장치이다. 이와 같은 서프스캔장비에서 웨이퍼를 이동하여 고정하는 척킹장치가 도 1에 도시되어 있는 바, 이를 간단히 설명하면 다음과 같다.In general, SUFSCAN equipment is a device that detects PARTICLE on a wafer by using SCATTERING of a laser. A chucking device for moving and fixing a wafer in such a surf scan apparatus is shown in FIG. 1, which will be described briefly as follows.
도 1은 종래 반도체 서프스캔장비의 웨이퍼 척킹장치의 구조를 보인 평면도이고,1 is a plan view showing the structure of a wafer chucking device of a conventional semiconductor surf scan equipment,
도 2는 종래 반도체 서프스캔장비의 웨이퍼 척킹장치의 구조를 보인 단면도이다.2 is a cross-sectional view illustrating a structure of a wafer chucking device of a conventional semiconductor surf scan device.
도시된 바와 같이, 종래 반도체 서프스캔장비의 웨이퍼 척킹장치는 웨이퍼를 버큠(VACUUM)으로 고정하기 위한 척(1)과, 그 척(1)에 웨이퍼를 이동시키기 위한 핸들러(HANDLER)(2)로 구성되어 있다.As shown, the wafer chucking apparatus of the conventional semiconductor surf scan equipment has a chuck 1 for fixing the wafer with a VACUUM and a handler HANDLER 2 for moving the wafer to the chuck 1. Consists of.
그리고, 상기 척(1) 상면에 2개의 버큠홀(VACUUM HOLE)(1a)이 형성되어 있고, 그 버큠홀(1a)에 연결되도록 상기 척(1)의 상면에 다수개의 버큠라인(VACUUM LINE)(1b)이 형성되어 있으며, 상기 버큠홀(1a)의 하방으로는 버큠호스(VACUUM HOSE)(1c)가 연결설치되어 있다.In addition, two vacuum holes 1a are formed on the upper surface of the chuck 1, and a plurality of vacuum lines are formed on the upper surface of the chuck 1 so as to be connected to the vacuum holes 1a. (1b) is formed, and a plume hose (1c) is connected below the vent hole (1a).
또한, 상기 핸들러(2)의 중앙에는 버큠홀(2a)이 형성되어 있고, 그 버큠홀(1a)에 연결되도록 상기 핸들러(2)의 상면에 X자형의 버큠라인(2b)이 형성되어 있다.Further, a burr hole 2a is formed in the center of the handler 2, and an X-shaped burr line 2b is formed on the upper surface of the handler 2 so as to be connected to the burr hole 1a.
상기와 같이 구성되어 있는 종래 반도체 서프스캔장비의 웨이퍼 척킹장치는 핸들러(2)의 상면에 버큠을 이용하여 웨이퍼를 흡착하고, 이와 같이 흡착된 웨이퍼를 이동하여 척(1)의 상면으로 이동시킨 다음, 척(1)에 형성된 버큠홀(1a)과 버큠라인(1b)에 형성되는 버큠을 이용하여 웨이퍼를 흡착고정하게 된다.The wafer chucking device of the conventional semiconductor surf scan device configured as described above adsorbs the wafer using the pressure on the upper surface of the handler 2, and moves the absorbed wafer to the upper surface of the chuck 1. The wafer is sucked and fixed by using the burr holes 1a formed in the chuck 1 and the burrs formed in the burr lines 1b.
그러나, 상기와 같은 종래 핸들러(2)와 척(1)은 웨이퍼를 이동시 버큠홀(1a)(2a)과 버큠라인(1b)(2b)을 제외한 나머지 상면에 면접촉한 상태로 이동되기 때문에 웨이퍼의 뒷면에 이물질이 많이 부착되는 문제점이 있었다. 이와 같이 웨이퍼의 뒷면에 부착된 이물질들은 후공정에서 카세트(CASSETTE)로 이동시 다른 웨이퍼의 앞면을 오염시키게된다.However, the conventional handler 2 and the chuck 1 as described above are moved in surface contact with the rest of the upper surface except for the vacuum holes 1a, 2a, and vacuum lines 1b, 2b. There was a problem that a lot of foreign matter attached to the back. As such, foreign matters attached to the back side of the wafer contaminate the front side of another wafer when moved to the cassette in a later process.
상기와 같은 문제점을 감안하여 안출한 본 고안의 목적은 웨이퍼의 뒷면에 이물질이 부착되는 것을 감소키기도록 하는데 적합한 반도체 서프스캔장비의 웨이퍼 척킹장치를 제공함에 있다.An object of the present invention devised in view of the above problems is to provide a wafer chucking device of a semiconductor surfscan equipment suitable for reducing the adhesion of foreign matter on the back of the wafer.
