如圖1所示,構成保持手段5a的吸盤台50a的上面,成為保持晶圓W的保持面51。保持面51係例如藉由多孔陶瓷等的多孔質構件所形成。於吸盤台50a的下端,如圖2所示,連結有具有垂直方向之軸心的旋轉軸52。於旋轉軸52,連接旋轉接頭53,於旋轉接頭53,連接有連通於吸盤台50a之保持面51的吸引源7,與連通於轉盤3之下面的空氣供給源8。然後,藉由吸引源7使吸引力作用於吸盤台50a的保持面51時,可利用保持面51吸引保持晶圓W,藉由從空氣供給源8向轉盤3的下面噴吹空氣,可使轉盤3浮起。 As shown in Fig. 1, the upper surface of the chuck table 50a constituting the holding means 5a serves as a holding surface 51 for holding the wafer W. The holding surface 51 is formed, for example, by a porous member such as porous ceramic. At the lower end of the suction cup table 50a, as shown in Fig. 2, a rotating shaft 52 having a central axis in the vertical direction is coupled. A rotary joint 53 is connected to the rotary shaft 52, and a suction source 7 that communicates with the holding surface 51 of the chuck table 50a and an air supply source 8 that communicates with the lower surface of the turntable 3 are connected to the rotary joint 53. Then, when the suction force is applied to the holding surface 51 of the chuck table 50a by the suction source 7, the wafer W can be sucked and held by the holding surface 51, and the air can be blown from the air supply source 8 to the lower surface of the turntable 3. The turntable 3 floats.

於旋轉軸52,連接有在轉盤3上使吸盤台50a旋轉的旋轉機構。旋轉機構係如圖2所示,藉由配設於轉盤3上的電動機54、安裝於電動機54的驅動滑輪55、安裝於旋轉軸52的從動滑輪56、及捲繞於驅動滑輪55與從動滑輪56的皮帶57所構成。再者,在圖2的範例中雖未圖示,但是,於吸盤台50b側也連接有與吸盤台50a相同的旋轉機構。 A rotating mechanism that rotates the chuck table 50a on the turntable 3 is connected to the rotating shaft 52. As shown in FIG. 2, the rotating mechanism is provided by a motor 54 disposed on the turntable 3, a drive pulley 55 attached to the motor 54, a driven pulley 56 attached to the rotating shaft 52, and a driven pulley 55 and a driven pulley. The belt 57 of 56 is formed. Further, although not shown in the example of Fig. 2, the same rotating mechanism as the chuck table 50a is also connected to the chuck table 50b side.

電動機54係以從轉盤3上突出之方式配設。亦即,成為藉由使電動機54的驅動時易發熱的上部540從轉盤3露出,電動機54的熱不會傳達至轉盤3的配置構造。然後,藉由電動機54驅動驅動滑輪55時,皮帶57使從動滑輪56從動,可與旋轉軸52一起使吸盤台50a旋轉。 The motor 54 is disposed to protrude from the turntable 3. In other words, the upper portion 540 which is easily heated by the driving of the motor 54 is exposed from the turntable 3, and the heat of the motor 54 is not transmitted to the arrangement of the turntable 3. Then, when the drive pulley 55 is driven by the motor 54, the belt 57 causes the driven pulley 56 to be driven, and the suction table 50a can be rotated together with the rotary shaft 52.

區隔部6係如圖1所示,延伸於X軸方向,配置於吸盤台50a與吸盤台50b之間。藉由利用區隔部6將吸盤台50a、50b之間予以區隔,於研磨時遮斷加工區域P1與搬出入區域P2。如此,藉由區隔部6,可防止加工區域P1中使用的研磨用水等散射至位於搬出入區域P2的吸盤台50a或吸盤台50b。 As shown in FIG. 1, the partition portion 6 extends in the X-axis direction and is disposed between the suction cup table 50a and the suction cup table 50b. The suction cups 50a and 50b are partitioned by the partition portion 6, and the processing region P1 and the loading/unloading region P2 are blocked during polishing. As described above, the partition portion 6 can prevent the polishing water or the like used in the processing region P1 from being scattered to the chuck table 50a or the chuck table 50b located in the carry-in/out area P2.

區隔部6係如圖2所示,至少在兩處(圖2中僅圖示1處)具有用以將配設於轉盤3上的各電動機54收容於內側的凹部60。於該凹部60,收容有保持手段5a、5b的各電動機54。因此,藉由研磨時從研磨用水供給源21供給至研磨砥石16與晶圓W的研磨用水接觸區隔部6的外側面61,可冷卻區隔部6與被區隔部6的凹部60收容的電動機54。再者,區隔部6之上端面62的高度位置,係位於至少比吸盤台50a、50b的保持面51還高的位置即可。 As shown in FIG. 2, the partition portion 6 has recesses 60 for accommodating the motors 54 disposed on the turntable 3 on the inside at least in two places (only one is shown in FIG. 2). In the recess 60, the motors 54 of the holding means 5a, 5b are housed. Therefore, the outer side surface 61 of the polishing water contact portion 6 of the polishing vermiculite 16 and the wafer W is supplied from the polishing water supply source 21 during polishing, and the cooling partition portion 6 and the concave portion 60 of the partition portion 6 can be accommodated. Motor 54. Further, the height position of the upper end surface 62 of the partition portion 6 may be located at least higher than the holding surface 51 of the suction cup tables 50a and 50b.

接著,針對研磨裝置1的動作例進行說明。圖1所示之晶圓W,係被加工物的一例,並不是限定其材質及厚度等者。首先,將晶圓W搬送至例如在搬出入區域P2待機的吸盤台50a。 Next, an operation example of the polishing apparatus 1 will be described. The wafer W shown in FIG. 1 is an example of a workpiece, and is not limited to the material and thickness thereof. First, the wafer W is transported to, for example, the chuck table 50a that is waiting in the carry-in/out area P2.

利用吸盤台50a的保持面51吸引保持晶圓W之後,藉由使轉盤3旋轉,使吸盤台50a往加工區域P1移動。具體來說,將從空氣供給源8送來的空氣向轉盤3的下面噴吹而使其浮起之狀態下,使轉盤3向例如箭頭A方向旋轉。然後,伴隨轉盤3的旋轉,使吸盤台50a往研 磨手段10的下方移動。 After the wafer W is held by the holding surface 51 of the chuck table 50a, the dial table 3 is rotated to move the chuck table 50a toward the processing region P1. Specifically, the turntable 3 is rotated in the direction of the arrow A in a state where the air sent from the air supply source 8 is blown to the lower surface of the turntable 3 to be floated. Then, with the rotation of the turntable 3, the suction cup table 50a is researched. The grinding means 10 moves below.

接下來,如圖3所示,藉由電動機54的驅動,使吸盤台50a往例如箭頭A方向旋轉,並且研磨手段10一邊藉由使主軸11旋轉,使研磨輪15往例如箭頭A方向旋轉,一邊藉由圖1所示之研磨進給手段30,使研磨手段10往接近吸盤台50a的保持面51的方向下降,利用一邊旋轉一邊下降的研磨砥石16,對晶圓W一邊按壓一邊研磨至成為所定厚度為止。 Next, as shown in FIG. 3, by the driving of the motor 54, the chuck table 50a is rotated in the direction of the arrow A, and the polishing means 10 rotates the grinding wheel 15 in the direction of the arrow A, for example, by rotating the spindle 11. The polishing means 10 is lowered in the direction of the holding surface 51 of the chuck table 50a by the grinding and feeding means 30 shown in Fig. 1, and the grinding stone 16 which is lowered while rotating is rotated to the wafer W while being pressed. It becomes the predetermined thickness.

此時,如圖3所示,從研磨用水供給源21對晶圓W與研磨砥石16的接觸部分供給研磨用水22,冷卻研磨砥石16並且洗掉研磨屑。研磨用水22係散射至旋轉之研磨砥石16的周圍,但是,接觸區隔部6的外側面61而被遮斷,故研磨用水22不會散射至吸盤台50b。 At this time, as shown in FIG. 3, the polishing water 22 is supplied from the polishing water supply source 21 to the contact portion of the wafer W and the polishing vermicite 16, and the grinding stone 16 is cooled and the polishing dust is washed away. The polishing water 22 is scattered around the rotating grinding stone 16 but is blocked by the outer surface 61 of the contact portion 6, so that the polishing water 22 is not scattered to the suction table 50b.

在此,研磨用水22散射的方向係如圖4所示,伴隨吸盤台50a及研磨砥石16的旋轉,朝向被區隔部6的內部收容的電動機54側。亦即,研磨用水22係從實際上研磨砥石16接觸研磨晶圓W的接觸部分100朝向箭頭B方向散射。因此,可有效率地使研磨用水22接觸對應收容電動機54的位置之區隔部6的外側面61,可冷卻區隔部6與被區隔部6收容的電動機54。 Here, the direction in which the polishing water 22 is scattered is as shown in FIG. 4, and is directed toward the motor 54 side accommodated inside the partition portion 6 with the rotation of the chuck table 50a and the grinding vermiculite 16. That is, the polishing water 22 is scattered from the contact portion 100 where the grinding vermiculite 16 is in contact with the polishing wafer W in the direction of the arrow B. Therefore, the polishing water 22 can be efficiently brought into contact with the outer side surface 61 of the partition portion 6 corresponding to the position at which the motor 54 is housed, and the partition portion 6 and the motor 54 housed in the partition portion 6 can be cooled.

晶圓W的研磨中,係從圖3所示之研磨用水供給源21經常將研磨用水22持續供給至晶圓W與研磨砥石16,使研磨用水22持續接觸區隔部6的外側面61。如此一來,藉由研磨用水22的冷卻作用,利用時常冷卻 電動機54的上部540,去除電動機54的熱,讓熱影響不會波及轉盤3。 In the polishing of the wafer W, the polishing water 22 is continuously supplied to the wafer W and the polishing vermicite 16 from the polishing water supply source 21 shown in FIG. 3, and the polishing water 22 is continuously brought into contact with the outer surface 61 of the partition portion 6. In this way, by the cooling action of the grinding water 22, it is often cooled. The upper portion 540 of the motor 54 removes heat from the motor 54 so that heat effects do not affect the turntable 3.

將晶圓W研磨成所定厚度之後,圖4所示之轉盤3更加旋轉,使吸盤台50a移動至搬出入區域P2,並且使保持未加工之晶圓W的吸盤台50b移動至加工區域P1,重覆進行與前述相同的研磨動作。 After the wafer W is polished to a predetermined thickness, the turntable 3 shown in FIG. 4 is further rotated, the chuck table 50a is moved to the carry-in/out area P2, and the chuck table 50b holding the unprocessed wafer W is moved to the processing area P1. The same polishing operation as described above is repeated.

如此,本發明相關的研磨裝置1係具備具有使吸盤台50a、50b旋轉之電動機54的2以上的保持手段5a、5b、保持手段5a、5b被均等間隔地配設且旋轉的轉盤3、及配設於轉盤3上,將吸盤台50a、50b之間予以區隔的區隔部6,且使電動機54突出配設於轉盤3上,故電動機54的熱不會傳達至轉盤3。。又,區隔部6係具有將電動機54收容於內側的凹部60,故在將電動機54收容於區隔部6的凹部60之狀態下,藉由使研磨用水22接觸區隔部6的外側面61,可冷卻區隔部6與電動機54,熱影響不會波及轉盤3。如此,研磨時轉盤3不會熱變形,可將晶圓W加工成所定研磨厚度。 In the polishing apparatus 1 according to the present invention, the holding device 5a and 5b having the motor 54 that rotates the chuck tables 50a and 50b, and the turntable 3 in which the holding means 5a and 5b are disposed and rotated at equal intervals are provided. The electric motor 54 is disposed on the turntable 3, and the electric motor 54 is disposed on the turntable 3 so that the heat of the electric motor 54 is not transmitted to the turntable 3, and is disposed on the turntable 3 and the partition portion 6 that partitions the suction cups 50a and 50b. . Further, since the partition portion 6 has the recess portion 60 in which the motor 54 is housed inside, the polishing water 22 is brought into contact with the outer side surface of the partition portion 6 in a state where the motor 54 is housed in the recess portion 60 of the partition portion 6. 61. The partition 6 and the motor 54 can be cooled, and the heat influence does not affect the turntable 3. Thus, the turntable 3 is not thermally deformed during polishing, and the wafer W can be processed to a predetermined polishing thickness.

研磨裝置1係常為使電動機54從轉盤3突出的配置構造,但是,可從轉盤3的下方側進行電動機54的交換,故與先前同樣地可容易進行電動機的交換作業。 The polishing apparatus 1 is generally configured to protrude the motor 54 from the turntable 3. However, since the electric motor 54 can be exchanged from the lower side of the turntable 3, the electric motor can be easily exchanged in the same manner as before.

在本實施形態中,將1個區隔部6配設於吸盤台50a、50b之間,但是並不限定於該構造,可因應配設於轉盤的吸盤台的數量,變更區隔部6的數量、形狀及配設位置。 In the present embodiment, the one partition portion 6 is disposed between the suction cup tables 50a and 50b. However, the configuration is not limited thereto, and the partition portion 6 may be changed in accordance with the number of the suction cups disposed on the turntable. Quantity, shape and location.

又,在本實施形態1中,成為具備1個研磨手段10的構造,但是並不限定於該構造。例如,具備兩個研磨手段(粗研磨手段及完成研磨手段)亦可,具備研削手段亦可。 Further, in the first embodiment, the structure including one polishing means 10 is provided, but the configuration is not limited thereto. For example, there may be two polishing means (a rough polishing means and a completion polishing means), and a grinding means may be provided.
