And other issues. In response to this, Patent Document 1 describes a magnetic levitation rotation processing device that rotates a rotating plate contained in a closed container magnetically by a second type of superconductor arranged below the outside of the container, and a rotating magnetic field coil arranged around the container And rotary drive.

Or a ferromagnetic body, the rotating part, and the electromagnet of the non-rotating part.

上述任一基板旋轉裝置之中,宜進一步使前述外框體可繞與前述中心軸交叉之直線的周圍轉動並傾斜。藉由此構成,則能於使基板自水平面傾斜之狀態下使其旋轉。In any of the above substrate rotation devices, it is preferable that the outer frame body can be further rotated and tilted around a straight line crossing the central axis.

[Effect of Invention]

依據本發明之基板旋轉裝置或基板處理裝置,則因為能使固定有基板之內框體在容器內磁浮並旋轉,所以沒有旋轉軸桿等貫穿容器,而能減少容器內的汚染源。又,因為使內框體與外框體配置成在同一平面內且同心狀,所以能採用更單純的容器形狀。According to the substrate rotating device or the substrate processing device of the present invention, since the inner frame body to which the substrate is fixed can be magnetically levitated and rotated in the container, there is no penetrating shaft or the like penetrating the container, which can reduce the pollution source in the container. Moreover, since the inner frame body and the outer frame body are arranged in the same plane and are concentric, a simpler container shape can be adopted.

〔實施發明之較佳形態〕 基於圖1~圖6說明本發明之第一實施形態。此實施形態之基板旋轉裝置能使圓形基板一邊浸漬於化學液一邊旋轉。[Best Mode for Carrying Out the Invention] A first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to Figs. 1 to 6. The substrate rotation device of this embodiment can rotate a circular substrate while being immersed in a chemical liquid.

參照圖1,本實施形態之基板旋轉裝置10具有外環(外框體)20、配置在外環的內側之容器40、配置在容器內之內環(內框體)50。內環固持有基板60。Referring to FIG. 1, a substrate rotation device 10 according to this embodiment includes an outer ring (outer frame) 20, a container 40 disposed inside the outer ring, and an inner ring (inner frame) 50 disposed inside the container. The inner ring holds the substrate 60.

參照圖2及圖3,外環20在外環上構件21與外環下構件22之間具備複數個磁性耦合用電磁鐵23與複數個固持爪驅動用電磁鐵24。此外,本說明書中僅記載「電磁鐵」時係意指「磁性耦合用電磁鐵23」。2 and 3, the outer ring 20 includes a plurality of magnetic coupling electromagnets 23 and a plurality of holding claw driving electromagnets 24 between the outer ring upper member 21 and the outer ring lower member 22. In addition, when only "electromagnet" is described in this specification, it means "electromagnet 23 for magnetic coupling."

將電磁鐵23沿外環20的周向分散配置。就電磁鐵23而言,可使用空心的螺線管、具有永久磁鐵或鐵磁性體的芯之螺線管等。藉由此電磁鐵23而產生磁場。電磁鐵23係由未圖示之控制裝置而控制磁力的大小。電磁鐵23的數量係三個以上。電磁鐵23的數量的上限不特別限定,為使構造不過度複雜,宜為七個以下,且較宜為三個。電磁鐵23配置如下:以三個電磁鐵為頂點的三角形中之至少一個係銳角三角形。電磁鐵23宜配置為將外環的周加以等分。The electromagnets 23 are dispersedly arranged in the circumferential direction of the outer ring 20. As the electromagnet 23, a hollow solenoid, a solenoid having a core of a permanent magnet or a ferromagnetic body, or the like can be used. A magnetic field is generated by the electromagnet 23. The size of the magnetic force is controlled by a control device (not shown) in the electromagnet 23. The number of the electromagnets 23 is three or more. The upper limit of the number of the electromagnets 23 is not particularly limited, and in order not to complicate the structure excessively, it is preferably seven or less, and more preferably three. The electromagnet 23 is configured as follows: At least one of the triangles having three electromagnets as vertices is an acute-angled triangle. The electromagnet 23 is preferably arranged to equally divide the periphery of the outer ring.

固持爪驅動用電磁鐵24用以驅動後述內環50的固持爪54。The holding claw driving electromagnet 24 is used to drive a holding claw 54 of an inner ring 50 described later.

外環20可繞中心軸Z的周圍旋轉。使外環旋轉,藉以使由電磁鐵23所產生之磁場繞中心軸Z的周圍地旋轉。外環更能以與中心軸Z交叉之直線為軸轉動並傾斜。該動作能藉由平衡環機構(Gimbal)而實現。就一範例而言,將圖4說明如下。第一支持框61係由未圖示的支持機構支持為水平。第二支持框62係由第一支持框支持為可繞X軸周圍轉動,且可藉由第一電動機63而繞X軸周圍轉動並傾斜(T)。外環20係配置在從第二支持框延伸之支柱64所固定之軸承65上,且藉由第二電動機66而由皮帶68驅動等繞Z軸周圍旋轉(R)。藉此,外環可繞X軸周圍轉動並傾斜,且可繞Z軸周圍旋轉。The outer ring 20 is rotatable around the center axis Z. The outer ring is rotated to rotate the magnetic field generated by the electromagnet 23 around the center axis Z. The outer ring can be rotated and tilted about a straight line crossing the central axis Z as an axis. This action can be achieved by a gimbal mechanism. As an example, FIG. 4 is explained as follows. The first support frame 61 is horizontally supported by a support mechanism (not shown). The second support frame 62 is supported by the first support frame to be rotatable around the X axis, and is rotatable and tilted (T) around the X axis by the first motor 63. The outer ring 20 is arranged on a bearing 65 fixed by a pillar 64 extending from the second support frame, and is rotated around the Z axis by a belt 68 or the like by a second motor 66 (R). Thereby, the outer ring can rotate and tilt around the X axis, and can rotate around the Z axis.

參照圖1及圖3,容器40係配置在外環20的內側,且由未圖示的支持機構支持。容器的形狀須不干涉外環及內環之傾斜-旋轉。本實施形態之容器形狀係上下被裁斷的球狀,且即使外環傾斜-旋轉亦不干涉外環及內環。容器40係由側壁部41、蓋部42、底部43而形成,且側壁部構成球面。底部43與側壁部下端液密接合。底部連接有化學液供給管44及排液管45。宜使蓋部42亦可與側壁部上端液密接合。其係因為可於容器內部儲存有化學液之狀態下,斜傾容器本身。1 and 3, the container 40 is disposed inside the outer ring 20 and is supported by a support mechanism (not shown). The shape of the container must not interfere with the tilt-rotation of the outer and inner rings. The shape of the container in this embodiment is a spherical shape that is cut up and down, and does not interfere with the outer ring and the inner ring even if the outer ring is tilted and rotated. The container 40 is formed of a side wall portion 41, a lid portion 42, and a bottom portion 43, and the side wall portion constitutes a spherical surface. The bottom portion 43 is liquid-tightly joined to the lower end of the side wall portion. A chemical liquid supply pipe 44 and a liquid discharge pipe 45 are connected to the bottom. It is desirable that the cover portion 42 can also be liquid-tightly joined to the upper end of the side wall portion. It is because the container itself can be tilted in a state where the chemical liquid is stored inside the container.

容器40的材質係相對磁導率接近於1之介電體,且採用不會因所使用之化學液腐蝕、不成為基板的汚染源者。容器的材質宜為石英。就容器內所填充之化學處理液而言,例如若係基板清洗處理,則使用純水、氨、氨-過氧化氫混合液、鹽酸、鹽酸-過氧化氫混合液、硫酸、硫酸-過氧化氫混合液、過氧化氫、臭氧水、氟酸-臭氧水混合液、硫酸-臭氧水混合液等。若係蝕刻處理,則使用硝酸、氟酸、醋酸、氟酸-過氧化氫混合液、氟酸-硝酸混合液、氟酸-硝酸-醋酸混合液、氟酸-鹽酸混合液、硫酸-鹽酸混合液、硫酸-硝酸混合液、硝酸-鹽酸混合液等。若係基板乾燥處理,則使用異丙醇、乙醇、甲醇等。The material of the container 40 is a dielectric material having a relative magnetic permeability close to 1, and a material that does not corrode by the chemical liquid used and does not become a source of contamination of the substrate. The material of the container should be quartz. For the chemical treatment liquid filled in the container, for example, if the substrate is cleaned, pure water, ammonia, ammonia-hydrogen peroxide mixed solution, hydrochloric acid, hydrochloric acid-hydrogen peroxide mixed solution, sulfuric acid, sulfuric acid-peroxidation are used. Hydrogen mixed liquid, hydrogen peroxide, ozone water, hydrofluoric acid-ozone water mixed liquid, sulfuric acid-ozone water mixed liquid, etc. For the etching process, use nitric acid, fluoric acid, acetic acid, fluoric acid-hydrogen peroxide mixed solution, fluoric acid-nitric acid mixed solution, fluoric acid-nitric acid-acetic acid mixed solution, fluoric acid-hydrochloric acid mixed solution, and sulfuric acid-hydrochloric acid mixed solution. Liquid, sulfuric acid-nitric acid mixed liquid, nitric acid-hydrochloric acid mixed liquid, etc. For drying the substrate, isopropyl alcohol, ethanol, methanol, or the like is used.

參照圖2、圖3、及圖5,內環50係配置在容器40內。內環50在內環上構件51與內環下構件52之間具備複數個磁性耦合用永久磁鐵53、用以握持基板之複數個固持爪54。此外,本說明書中僅記載「永久磁鐵」時,係意指此「磁性耦合用永久磁鐵53」。Referring to FIGS. 2, 3, and 5, the inner ring 50 is disposed in the container 40. The inner ring 50 includes a plurality of permanent magnets 53 for magnetic coupling and a plurality of holding claws 54 for holding a substrate between the inner ring upper member 51 and the inner ring lower member 52. In addition, when only "permanent magnet" is described in this specification, it means this "permanent magnet 53 for magnetic coupling."

內環上構件51及內環下構件52的材質係使用:不受所使用之化學液而腐蝕,且不成為基板的汚染源者。內環上構件及內環下構件的材質宜為石英。The material of the inner ring upper member 51 and the inner ring lower member 52 is used: it is not corroded by the chemical liquid used, and does not become a source of contamination of the substrate. The material of the inner ring upper member and the inner ring lower member should be quartz.

將永久磁鐵53沿內環50的周向分散配置。永久磁鐵53的數量係三個以上。將永久磁鐵53配置成可與外環20的電磁鐵23一對一相向。將永久磁鐵53封入至石英管。此構造例如可藉由下者實現:將永久磁鐵插入至石英管,且利用石英板封阻石英管的兩端部,並將石英管端面與石英板周緣部熔接。The permanent magnets 53 are dispersedly arranged in the circumferential direction of the inner ring 50. The number of the permanent magnets 53 is three or more. The permanent magnets 53 are arranged so as to face the electromagnets 23 of the outer ring 20 one-to-one. The permanent magnet 53 is enclosed in a quartz tube. This structure can be achieved, for example, by inserting a permanent magnet into a quartz tube, sealing both ends of the quartz tube with a quartz plate, and welding the end face of the quartz tube to the peripheral edge portion of the quartz plate.

將固持爪54沿內環50的周向分散配置。固持爪具有與內環的面垂直之貫穿孔55,且可繞將貫穿孔加以插穿之銷56的周圍轉動。將銷利用熔接等而固定在內環上構件51及內環下構件52。固持爪的基端部57埋入有固持爪驅動用永久磁鐵58,且藉由與外環20的固持爪驅動用電磁鐵24之吸引或排斥,而使固持爪全體繞銷56的周圍轉動。固持爪的前端部59握持基板60。The holding claws 54 are dispersedly arranged in the circumferential direction of the inner ring 50. The holding claw has a through-hole 55 perpendicular to the surface of the inner ring, and is rotatable around a pin 56 through which the through-hole is inserted. The pin is fixed to the inner ring upper member 51 and the inner ring lower member 52 by welding or the like. The base end portion 57 of the holding claw is embedded with the holding claw driving permanent magnet 58 and is attracted or repelled by the holding claw driving electromagnet 24 of the outer ring 20 to rotate the entire holding claw around the pin 56. The front end portion 59 of the holding claw holds the substrate 60.

固持爪54的數量係三個以上。固持爪的數量的上限不特別限定,但為了使構造不過度複雜,宜為七個以下,且更宜為三個。將固持爪配置如下:以三個前端部59為頂點之三角形中至少一個係銳角三角形。固持爪宜配置成使前端部59將基板60的外周加以等分。The number of the holding claws 54 is three or more. The upper limit of the number of holding claws is not particularly limited, but in order not to complicate the structure excessively, it is preferably seven or less, and more preferably three. The holding claws are arranged as follows: At least one of the triangles having the three front ends 59 as apexes is an acute-angled triangle. The holding claw is preferably arranged such that the front end portion 59 divides the outer periphery of the substrate 60 equally.

固持爪54及銷56的材質使用下者:不受所使用之化學液而腐蝕、不成為基板的汚染源者。固持爪及銷的材質宜為石英。The material of the holding claws 54 and the pins 56 is the following: those who are not corroded by the chemical liquid used and do not become a source of contamination of the substrate. The material of the holding claws and pins should be quartz.

參照圖2及圖3,沿外環20的周向分散配置之電磁鐵23與內環50的永久磁鐵53係一對一相向而構成磁性耦合機構。藉此,使外環與內環夾著容器40的側壁而磁性耦合,且使內環固持為在容器內騰空的狀態。外環與內環之間隔越大則裝置設計的自由度越增加,因此間隔宜大。可實現之間隔視內環的重量、電磁鐵23與永久磁鐵53之磁力大小等而定,但由本案發明者的實驗結果來看,使用普通可獲得的材料即能加大至40mm左右。Referring to FIGS. 2 and 3, the electromagnets 23 and the permanent magnets 53 of the inner ring 50 are arranged one-to-one facing each other in the circumferential direction of the outer ring 20 to form a magnetic coupling mechanism. Thereby, the outer ring and the inner ring are magnetically coupled while sandwiching the side wall of the container 40, and the inner ring is held in a state of being emptied in the container. The larger the distance between the outer ring and the inner ring, the greater the degree of freedom in device design, so the interval should be large. The achievable interval depends on the weight of the inner ring, the magnetic force of the electromagnet 23 and the permanent magnet 53, but from the experimental results of the inventor of the present application, it can be increased to about 40 mm using commonly available materials.

於內環50在容器40內騰空之狀態下,當外環20繞中心軸Z的周圍旋轉運動時,則內環追隨外環的旋轉運動而旋轉。In a state where the inner ring 50 is emptied in the container 40, when the outer ring 20 rotates around the central axis Z, the inner ring rotates following the rotation movement of the outer ring.

然而,若僅藉由上述磁性耦合機構,則外環20與內環50之間隔不穩定。於是,利用感測器偵測外環與內環之間隔,並調整電磁鐵23的磁力,藉以將該間隔保持為固定。藉此,將內環在與外環維持在同一平面內且同心。感測器在至少三處偵測外環與內環之間隔。宜在電磁鐵23與永久磁鐵53的位置偵測,藉以使電磁鐵23之磁力控制變容易。就感測器而言,例如可將雷射式變位感測器設置在外環。However, if only the above-mentioned magnetic coupling mechanism is used, the distance between the outer ring 20 and the inner ring 50 is unstable. Then, the interval between the outer ring and the inner ring is detected by a sensor, and the magnetic force of the electromagnet 23 is adjusted to keep the interval fixed. This keeps the inner ring in the same plane as the outer ring and is concentric. The sensor detects the distance between the outer ring and the inner ring in at least three places. It is desirable to detect the positions of the electromagnet 23 and the permanent magnet 53 so that the magnetic force control of the electromagnet 23 becomes easier. As for the sensor, for example, a laser displacement sensor may be provided on the outer ring.

其次,參照圖6說明本實施形態之基板旋轉裝置的使用方法。Next, a method of using the substrate rotation device according to this embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. 6.

首先,將容器40的蓋部卸下而往上方開放,並藉由機械臂71等將基板60固持並插入至容器內,且將基板下降至預定位置為止(圖6A)。利用內環50的固持爪握持基板。將基板交予內環後,將機械臂往上方抽出。將蓋部42液密地安裝至容器並使外環20傾斜,藉以使內環及基板60傾斜。自容器底部的化學液供給管44供給化學液46(硫酸-過氧化氫混合液等),而將容器內充滿(圖6B)。於將基板60浸漬至化學液之狀態下,繞外環的中心軸Z的周圍旋轉而處理基板(圖6C)。基板處理結束後,使容器40及外環20傾斜,並使基板進一步斜傾、更宜為使基板垂直豎立(圖6D)。自容器底部的排液管45排出化學液(圖6E)。使基板60回復為水平(圖6F)。其後,卸下容器的蓋部而藉由機械臂等取出基板。First, the lid portion of the container 40 is removed and opened upward, and the substrate 60 is held and inserted into the container by a robot arm 71 or the like, and the substrate is lowered to a predetermined position (FIG. 6A). The substrate is held by the holding claws of the inner ring 50. After handing the substrate to the inner ring, pull the robot arm upward. The lid portion 42 is attached to the container in a liquid-tight manner, and the outer ring 20 is tilted, thereby tilting the inner ring and the substrate 60. A chemical liquid 46 (sulfuric acid-hydrogen peroxide mixed liquid, etc.) is supplied from a chemical liquid supply pipe 44 at the bottom of the container, and the container is filled (FIG. 6B). In a state where the substrate 60 is immersed in the chemical liquid, the substrate 60 is processed by rotating around the central axis Z of the outer ring (FIG. 6C). After the substrate processing is completed, the container 40 and the outer ring 20 are inclined, and the substrate is further inclined, and more preferably, the substrate is erected vertically (FIG. 6D). The chemical liquid is discharged from the liquid discharge pipe 45 at the bottom of the container (FIG. 6E). The substrate 60 is returned to a horizontal level (FIG. 6F). After that, the lid portion of the container is removed and the substrate is taken out by a robot arm or the like.

基於圖7說明本發明之第二實施形態。本實施形態利用直線電動機的原理而使磁場旋轉,此點與第一實施形態不同。A second embodiment of the present invention will be described based on Fig. 7. This embodiment is different from the first embodiment in that the magnetic field is rotated using the principle of a linear motor.

參照圖7,本實施形態之基板處理裝置11之外環25具備沿周向對齊配置之電磁鐵26作為磁場產生機構。而且,並非外環本身繞中心軸的周圍旋轉運動,而係於外環靜止之狀態下,使電磁鐵26沿周向依序啟動關停(On/Off)、反轉極性,藉以使磁場旋轉。藉此,藉由電磁鐵26與永久磁鐵53之吸引及/或排斥,使內環50追隨磁場的旋轉變化而旋轉。Referring to FIG. 7, the outer ring 25 of the substrate processing apparatus 11 according to this embodiment is provided with electromagnets 26 aligned in a circumferential direction as a magnetic field generating mechanism. Moreover, instead of the outer ring itself rotating around the central axis, the outer ring is stationary, and the electromagnet 26 is sequentially turned on / off along the circumferential direction, and the polarity is reversed to rotate the magnetic field. . Thereby, the inner ring 50 is caused to rotate following the rotation change of the magnetic field by the attraction and / or repulsion of the electromagnet 26 and the permanent magnet 53.

固持爪54係由上述電磁鐵26中之位在與固持爪驅動用永久磁鐵58相向位置之電磁鐵(圖7的26A)所驅動。具體而言,於內環50停止時將固持爪54加以開閉之際,使位在與固持爪驅動用永久磁鐵58相向位置之電磁鐵26A的極性適當反轉。而且,於內環旋轉時,以能將固持爪固持基板之狀態加以維持之方式,控制電磁鐵26的極性或磁力。The holding claw 54 is driven by the electromagnet (26A in FIG. 7) in the electromagnet 26 which is positioned opposite to the holding magnet driving permanent magnet 58. Specifically, when the holding claw 54 is opened and closed when the inner ring 50 is stopped, the polarity of the electromagnet 26A positioned opposite to the holding claw driving permanent magnet 58 is appropriately reversed. When the inner ring rotates, the polarity or the magnetic force of the electromagnet 26 is controlled so that the state in which the holding claw holds the substrate is maintained.

外環20的其他部分、容器40、及內環50的構成係與第一實施形態同樣。The structure of the other parts of the outer ring 20, the container 40, and the inner ring 50 is the same as that of the first embodiment.

依據本實施形態,則不須外環的旋轉機構等,能使裝置構造單純化。According to this embodiment, the rotation mechanism and the like of the outer ring are not required, and the device structure can be simplified.

基於圖8說明本發明之第三實施形態。本實施形態之中,外框體係由非旋轉部與旋轉部而構成,此點與第一實施形態不同。A third embodiment of the present invention will be described based on Fig. 8. In this embodiment, the outer frame system is composed of a non-rotating portion and a rotating portion, which is different from the first embodiment.

參照圖8,本實施形態之基板處理裝置12之外框體30係由居於其外周側之非旋轉部31與居於其內周側之旋轉部33而構成。將旋轉部33隔著未圖示的軸承等支持機構而與非旋轉部機械性接合,且將兩者配置成在同一平面內且同心、相對位置關係不變。Referring to FIG. 8, the outer casing 30 of the substrate processing apparatus 12 according to the present embodiment includes a non-rotating portion 31 located on an outer peripheral side thereof and a rotating portion 33 located on an inner peripheral side thereof. The rotating portion 33 is mechanically engaged with the non-rotating portion via a support mechanism such as a bearing (not shown), and the two are arranged in the same plane with the same concentric and relative positional relationship.

非旋轉部31具備沿周向對齊配置之電磁鐵32作為磁場產生機構。旋轉部33係使沿周向磁導率不同的部分串接而形成。圖8的深色部係磁導率高的部分(高磁導率部分)34,且例如由鐵磁性體或永久磁鐵構成。圖8的淺色部係磁導率低的部分(低磁導率部分)35,且例如由各種介電體構成。電磁鐵32所成之磁力線易通過高磁導率部分34,因此旋轉部33的高磁導率部分34的內側,其磁通密度變高。相反而言,旋轉部33的低磁導率部分35的內側,其磁通密度變低。將高磁導率部分34配置成可與沿內環50的周向分散配置之永久磁鐵53及固持爪驅動用永久磁鐵58相向。The non-rotating portion 31 includes, as the magnetic field generating mechanism, electromagnets 32 aligned in the circumferential direction. The rotating portion 33 is formed by serially connecting portions having different magnetic permeability in the circumferential direction. The dark portion in FIG. 8 is a portion (high-permeability portion) 34 having high magnetic permeability, and is composed of, for example, a ferromagnetic body or a permanent magnet. The light-colored portion in FIG. 8 is a portion having a low magnetic permeability (low-permeability portion) 35 and is made of, for example, various dielectrics. The magnetic field lines formed by the electromagnet 32 easily pass through the high-permeability portion 34, so that the magnetic flux density of the inner portion of the high-permeability portion 34 of the rotating portion 33 becomes high. Conversely, the magnetic flux density of the low-permeability portion 35 of the rotating portion 33 becomes low. The high-permeability portion 34 is disposed so as to face the permanent magnets 53 and the permanent magnets 58 for driving the holding claws that are dispersedly arranged in the circumferential direction of the inner ring 50.

將非旋轉部31的電磁鐵32、旋轉部33的高磁導率部分34、及內環50的永久磁鐵53磁性耦合,且將內環固持成在容器40內騰空之狀態。又,於非旋轉部31靜止狀態下,使旋轉部33繞中心軸Z的周圍旋轉運動,藉以使磁場旋轉,且使內環追隨磁場的旋轉變化而旋轉。The electromagnet 32 of the non-rotating portion 31, the high-permeability portion 34 of the rotating portion 33, and the permanent magnet 53 of the inner ring 50 are magnetically coupled, and the inner ring is held in a state of being emptied in the container 40. In addition, when the non-rotating portion 31 is at a standstill, the rotating portion 33 is caused to rotate around the central axis Z to rotate the magnetic field, and the inner ring is caused to rotate following the change of the magnetic field rotation.

固持爪54的驅動方法與第二實施形態同樣。亦即,於內環50停止時將固持爪54加以開閉之際,使位在與固持爪驅動用永久磁鐵58相向位置之電磁鐵32A的極性適當反轉。The driving method of the holding claw 54 is the same as that of the second embodiment. In other words, when the holding claw 54 is opened and closed when the inner ring 50 is stopped, the polarity of the electromagnet 32A positioned opposite to the holding claw driving permanent magnet 58 is appropriately reversed.

依據本實施形態,則配置有電磁鐵32之非旋轉部31不旋轉運動,因此能使電磁鐵32的配線簡樸化。According to this embodiment, since the non-rotating portion 31 where the electromagnet 32 is arranged does not rotate, the wiring of the electromagnet 32 can be simplified.

上述第一~第三實施形態之基板旋轉裝置,一併具有以往浸漬式基板處理裝置與旋轉式基板處理裝置的優點。舉例而言,就浸漬方式的優點而言,則係無靜電問題、且可藉由附加超音波振動而提昇清洗效果。而且,就旋轉方式的優點而言,則係使基板旋轉而藉以改善基板面內之處理的均勻性。又,因為於將基板浸漬於化學液之狀態下使其旋轉,所以特別於清洗步驟之中,能冀望基板表面所附著之髒汚容易從表面剝落之剝離(lift off)效果。The substrate rotating apparatuses of the first to third embodiments described above have the advantages of the conventional immersion substrate processing apparatus and the rotary substrate processing apparatus. For example, in terms of the advantages of the dipping method, there is no static problem, and the cleaning effect can be improved by adding ultrasonic vibration. In addition, in terms of the advantages of the rotation method, the substrate is rotated to improve the uniformity of processing within the substrate surface. In addition, since the substrate is rotated while being immersed in a chemical liquid, particularly in the cleaning step, a lift-off effect of dirt adhered to the surface of the substrate can be expected to be easily peeled from the surface.

本發明不限於上述實施形態,可在其技術思想的範圍內進行各種變形。以下說明數種變形例。The present invention is not limited to the embodiments described above, and various modifications can be made within the scope of the technical idea. Several modifications are described below.

上述各實施形態的內框體及外框體係圓環狀,但內框體及外框體的形狀不限定於此,例如亦可係正八邊形等其他多邊形。The inner frame body and the outer frame system of each of the above embodiments are ring-shaped, but the shapes of the inner frame body and the outer frame body are not limited to this, and may be other polygons such as a regular octagon.

又,上述各實施形態之中,內框體具備磁性耦合用永久磁鐵53與固持爪驅動用永久磁鐵58,但亦可定為具備鐵磁性體來代替永久磁鐵。In each of the above-mentioned embodiments, the inner frame includes the permanent magnet 53 for magnetic coupling and the permanent magnet 58 for driving the holding claw, but may be provided with a ferromagnetic body instead of the permanent magnet.

又,當將外框體的旋轉或轉動的軸之數量稱作「旋轉自由度」時,則上述各實施形態的外框體的旋轉自由度為2,但外框體的旋轉自由度亦可為3。亦即,外框體可繞中心軸的周圍旋轉,且亦可繞與中心軸交叉之二條直線的周圍轉動並傾斜。藉此,能使基板一邊更複雜地運動一邊處理。When the number of axes of rotation or rotation of the outer frame is referred to as "rotational degree of freedom", the degree of freedom of rotation of the outer frame of each of the above embodiments is 2, but the degree of freedom of rotation of the outer frame may be Is 3. That is, the outer frame body can rotate around the center axis, and can also rotate and tilt around the two straight lines crossing the center axis. Thereby, the substrate can be processed while moving more complicatedly.

或者,外框體的旋轉自由度亦可為1。亦即,亦可如下:使外框體可繞中心軸的周圍旋轉,但外框體不傾斜而固定中心軸的朝向。藉此,能使裝置構造單純化。又,容器形狀亦可非球形而係略圓筒形。因為即使容器係圓筒形,亦不干涉外框體及內框體的旋轉。此情況下,宜使中心軸非鉛直而係斜傾,藉以使化學液排出時化學液等不易殘留在基板上。Alternatively, the degree of freedom of rotation of the outer casing may be one. That is, the outer frame body can be rotated around the center axis, but the outer frame body is not inclined to fix the direction of the center axis. Thereby, the device structure can be simplified. The shape of the container may be non-spherical but slightly cylindrical. This is because even if the container is cylindrical, it does not interfere with the rotation of the outer frame and the inner frame. In this case, it is desirable to make the central axis non-vertical and inclined, so that the chemical liquid and the like are not easily left on the substrate when the chemical liquid is discharged.

又,外框體亦可沿其中心軸的方向平移。藉此,基板之安裝或卸下操作變容易。In addition, the outer frame body can also be translated in the direction of its central axis. This makes it easy to install or remove the substrate.

又,本發明之基板旋轉裝置能不將基板浸漬至化學液,而作為旋轉塗佈機等以往基板旋轉裝置之替代品使用。於此情況下,若旋轉的自由度為2,則能於將基板從水平起傾斜之狀態下使其旋轉,因此能選擇貼近最佳的處理條件。即使旋轉的自由度為1,旋轉軸桿等並不貫穿容器,能減少容器內的汚染源。The substrate rotating device of the present invention can be used as a substitute for a conventional substrate rotating device such as a spin coater without immersing the substrate in a chemical liquid. In this case, if the degree of freedom of rotation is 2, since the substrate can be rotated while being tilted from the horizontal, the optimum processing conditions can be selected. Even if the degree of freedom of rotation is 1, the rotation shaft and the like do not penetrate the container, which can reduce the source of pollution in the container.

又,本發明之基板旋轉裝置可利用於不使用化學液之乾式製程。於此情況下,則使容器具備所需之氣密性。In addition, the substrate rotating device of the present invention can be used in a dry process without using a chemical liquid. In this case, the container is provided with the required airtightness.
