Description

TECHNICAL FIELD [0001] The present invention relates to an inductively coupled plasma processing apparatus,

Field of the Invention [0002] The present invention relates to an inductively coupled plasma processing apparatus, and more particularly, to an inductively coupled plasma processing apparatus for generating a plasma by an induction field to perform plasma processing on a substrate.

An inductively coupled plasma processing apparatus is a manufacturing apparatus used in an etching process for etching in a semiconductor and a display manufacturing process or a deposition process for depositing a deposition material. The inductively coupled plasma processing apparatus used in the etching process of the semiconductor and the display manufacturing process is advantageous in that the etching efficiency with respect to the metal is relatively superior to that of the reactive ion etching apparatus or the charge coupled plasma etching apparatus.

Here, the inductively coupled plasma processing apparatus is advantageous in that the etching efficiency with respect to the metal is relatively higher than that with the reactive ion etching apparatus or the capacitively coupled plasma etching apparatus, but there is a difficulty in using the inductively coupled plasma processing apparatus for etching large area substrates. In detail, since the inductively coupled plasma processing apparatus used for etching a large area substrate has non-uniform plasma, a variable capacitor (VVC: Vacuum Variable Capacitor) has been applied to improve it.

Meanwhile, the variable capacitor used in the inductively coupled plasma apparatus is connected to and driven by the driving unit. In particular, the variable capacitor and the driving unit are disposed in the receiving space of the lead accommodating the antenna connected to the RF power source.

When the variable capacitor and the driving unit are accommodated in the receiving space of the lead together with the antenna, the leads have a certain height. In this way, since the lead has a constant height, the radius of rotation increases according to the height of the lead during cleaning of the lead, which may lead to an inefficient problem that the working space for cleaning the lead becomes large.

The lid 200 is disposed above the chamber 10 and accommodates the antenna 50, as shown in Figs. A plurality of variable capacitor units (60) are disposed in the central region of the lead (200) on the lead (200). A plurality of variable capacitor units 60 are disposed in an upper portion of the lead 200 in a space independent of the antenna 50. In an embodiment of the present invention, the lead 200 includes a lead frame 210, a first upper lead 220, a second upper lead 230, a side lead 250, a receiving space 270, 280). The lead frame 210 is disposed with a dielectric window 40 and seals the top of the chamber 10. The first upper lead 220 is disposed opposite the dielectric window 40 and defines a receiving space 270 in which the antenna 50 is received. The second upper lead 230 is disposed on the upper portion of the first upper lead 220 to support the plurality of variable capacitor units 60. The second upper lead 230 is provided separately from the accommodation space 270 formed in the first upper lead 220. By disposing the plurality of variable capacitor units 60 in the second upper lead 230 separately provided from the accommodation space 270, noise due to the RF current can be prevented. The side lead 250 interconnects the lead frame 210 and the first upper lead 220 to form a receiving space 270 in which the antenna 50 is received.

Particles or the like may be attached to the lower portion of the lead 200 during the plasma processing process for the substrate S in the chamber 10. If particles adhere to the lower portion of the lead 200, the efficiency of the plasma processing process may decrease and the yield of the substrate S may decrease. Therefore, cleaning of the lower portion of the lead 200 is essential.

In order to clean the lower portion of the lead 200, after removing the lead 200 from the chamber 10, the lead 200 must be rotated 180 degrees. Here, the lead 200 has a length corresponding to a certain size of the substrate S to be plasma-processed, but the height may be different. That is, if the height of the lead 200 is changed when the length is constant, the turning radius of the lead 200 can be changed. The smaller the turning radius of the lead 200 is, the smaller the work space can be, so that unnecessary space consumption can be prevented. The plurality of variable capacitor units 60 may be disposed in the second upper lead 230 which is a space separate from the antenna 50 so as to be accommodated in the accommodating space 270 in which the antenna 50 is accommodated Can be reduced and the height from the lead frame 210 to the first upper lead 220 can be reduced in detail.

The arrangement height of the plurality of variable capacitor units 60 disposed in the second upper lead 230 to reduce the turning radius of the lead 200 is preferably equal to or less than the radius of rotation of the lead 200. [ The arrangement length of the plurality of variable capacitor units 60 disposed in the second upper lead 230 is preferably equal to or smaller than the radius of rotation of the lead 200. For example, when the width of the lead 200 with respect to the cross-sectional area of the lead 200 is a and the height is b, the radius of curvature r with respect to the cross-sectional area of the lead 200 satisfies Equation (1) below.

Assuming that the arrangement length of the plurality of variable capacitor units 60 is c and the arrangement height of the variable capacitor units 60 is d, a plurality of variable capacitor units 60 ) Satisfies the following Equation (2). &Quot; (2) "

&Quot; (2) "

Figure pat00006
, (c, d > 0)

When the r of the turning radius of the lead 200 and the turning radius r1 of the plurality of variable capacitor units 60 satisfy the following Equation (3), the lead 200 rotates without interference according to the turning radius r .

R > r1 (r, r1 > 0)

When the turning radius r of the lead 200 is equal to or larger than the turning radius r1 of the plurality of variable capacitor units 60, the turning radius r of the substantial lead 200 is set to be smaller than the turning radius r of the leads 200 when the lead 200 has a certain length 200). That is, as the height of the lead 200 becomes smaller, the turning radius r becomes smaller, and accordingly, the work space for cleaning the lead 200 can be reduced.

7 is a flowchart illustrating a cleaning method of an inductively coupled plasma processing apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 7, the cleaning method of the inductively coupled plasma processing apparatus 1 according to the embodiment of the present invention with such a configuration is as follows.

First, after the plasma processing process for the substrate S inside the chamber 10 is completed, the chamber 10 and the lid 200 are separated from each other (S100). Here, it is preferable that the lead 200 slides relative to the upper portion of the chamber 10 and moves to the work space for cleaning. After separating the chamber 10 and the lid 200, the lid 200 rotates 180 degrees according to the radius of rotation r of the lid 200 (S300). The lead 200 in the embodiment of the present invention includes a first upper lead 220 and a second upper lead 230 and a plurality of variable capacitor units 60 are disposed in the housing 200 in which the antenna 50 is accommodated And is supported by a second upper lead 230 provided independently of the first upper lead 220 forming the space 270. The lead frame 210 which forms the receiving space 270 as the plurality of variable capacitor units 60 are supported by the second upper lead 230, that is, the lead frame 210 which substantially determines the turning radius r of the lead 200 Since the height of the first upper lead 220 can be reduced, the turning radius r of the lead 200 can be reduced.

When the lower surface of the lead 200 is lifted up by the rotation of the lead 200, the lower surface of the lead 200 is cleaned (S500). When the cleaning of the lead 200 is completed, the lead 200 is rotated again (S700). Then, the lead 200 is moved and coupled to the upper portion of the chamber 10 so that the plasma processing process for the substrate S can proceed (S900).

By disposing the variable capacitor unit separately from the accommodation space for accommodating the antenna, the radius of rotation of the lead can be reduced by reducing the height of the lead, so that the work space required for the lead cleaning process can be reduced.

In addition, the working space necessary for the cleaning process of the leads can be reduced according to the radius of rotation of the leads, so that the working load due to the rotation of the leads can be reduced, thereby improving usability of the product.

While the present invention has been described in connection with what is presently considered to be practical exemplary embodiments, it is to be understood that the invention is not limited to the disclosed embodiments, but, on the contrary, . Therefore, it should be understood that the above-described embodiments are illustrative in all aspects and not restrictive.
