Description

電漿處理裝置及其工作方法Plasma processing device and its working method

本發明涉及半導體處理設備技術領域,特別是涉及一種電漿處理裝置及其工作方法。The present invention relates to the technical field of semiconductor processing equipment, in particular to a plasma processing device and a working method thereof.

隨著半導體製造技術越來越精密,積體電路也發生重大的變革,使得電腦的運算性能和儲存容量突飛猛進,並帶動周邊產業迅速發展。而半導體產業也如同摩爾定律所預測的,以每18個月在積體電路上的電晶體數目增加一倍的速度發展著。例如:電晶體的關鍵尺寸也在持續縮減且密度在持續增加。相應的積體電路晶片製造的工序也變得步驟更多且更加複雜,製造過程的每一道工序在穩定性和均勻性上面都受到更為嚴苛的標準。As the semiconductor manufacturing technology becomes more and more sophisticated, the integrated circuits have undergone major changes, which has made the computing performance and storage capacity of computers advance by leaps and bounds, and has driven the rapid development of peripheral industries. The semiconductor industry is also developing at a rate of doubling the number of transistors on an integrated circuit every 18 months, as predicted by Moore's Law. For example, the critical dimensions of transistors continue to shrink and densities continue to increase. The corresponding integrated circuit wafer manufacturing process has also become more steps and more complex, and each step of the manufacturing process is subject to stricter standards in terms of stability and uniformity.

為了保證製造積體電路晶片的製程過程的持續穩定性,其所採用的半導體處理裝置的本身結構的穩定性就需要有保證,尤其是一些關鍵製程部件的穩定性。In order to ensure the continuous stability of the manufacturing process of the integrated circuit chip, the stability of the structure of the semiconductor processing device used therein needs to be guaranteed, especially the stability of some key process components.

例如:現存常見電容耦合式電漿蝕刻機的電極結構為平行板結構,下電極為靜電吸盤(Electrostatic Chuck,ESC),待處理基片通常放置在其上面。靜電吸盤一方面與冷卻裝置相連實現蝕刻過程中對待處理基片溫度的控制,一方面與射頻訊號相連。上電極為矽基氣體噴淋頭(Si showerhead),其透過鋁螺絲等物理連接的方式貼在鋁製的安裝基板(mountain base)上,矽基氣體噴淋頭的外側為矽基材料的上接地環(upper ground ring),其透過鋁螺絲固定在一個鋁合金的底盤(baseplate)上,再透過一組鋁螺絲將鋁合金的底盤固定在安裝基板上面,安裝基板坐落在腔體的上表面。For example, the electrode structure of the existing common capacitively coupled plasma etching machine is a parallel plate structure, and the lower electrode is an electrostatic chuck (Electrostatic Chuck, ESC), on which the substrate to be processed is usually placed. On the one hand, the electrostatic chuck is connected with the cooling device to control the temperature of the substrate to be processed during the etching process, and on the other hand, it is connected with the radio frequency signal. The upper electrode is a silicon-based gas showerhead (Si showerhead), which is attached to the aluminum mount base by means of physical connection such as aluminum screws, and the outer side of the silicon-based gas showerhead is a silicon-based material. The upper ground ring is fixed on an aluminum alloy baseplate through aluminum screws, and then the aluminum alloy baseplate is fixed on the mounting base plate through a set of aluminum screws, and the mounting base plate is located on the upper surface of the cavity .

由此可知,單晶矽電極能夠為蝕刻提供一個矽的環境,且保證不帶來其他元素的污染,鋁基底透過一些螺絲為單晶矽電極提供物理製程,並且透過物理接觸以實現溫度的控制。然而,由於鋁基底和單晶矽電極之間存在膨脹係數的差異,維持二者接觸的螺絲隨著時間的增加不可避免地會鬆動,由此導致熱量傳導和直流射頻迴路會受到影響,進而導致基片良率性差的問題。It can be seen from this that the single crystal silicon electrode can provide a silicon environment for etching without causing pollution from other elements. The aluminum substrate provides a physical process for the single crystal silicon electrode through some screws, and realizes temperature control through physical contact. . However, due to the difference in the expansion coefficient between the aluminum substrate and the monocrystalline silicon electrode, the screws that maintain the contact between the two will inevitably loosen over time, which will affect the heat conduction and the DC RF circuit, which will lead to The problem of poor substrate yield.

本發明的目的是提供一種電漿處理裝置及其工作方法,以實現改善氣體噴淋頭與電極的物理接觸,從而實現更好的溫度控制,以達到提高基片良率的目的。The purpose of the present invention is to provide a plasma processing device and a working method thereof, so as to improve the physical contact between the gas shower head and the electrode, so as to achieve better temperature control, so as to achieve the purpose of improving the substrate yield.

本發明與現有技術相比,至少具有以下優點之一:Compared with the prior art, the present invention has at least one of the following advantages:

在本發明提供的一種電漿處理裝置中,透過直流電源向電極輸送直流電流,能夠在安裝基板與電極之間以及電極與氣體噴淋頭之間的表面上都聚集有電荷以產生強烈的靜電吸附力,使得安裝基板與電極之間以及電極與氣體噴淋頭之間進行貼合,這種吸附力較均勻,其使得安裝基板與電極之間以及電極與氣體噴淋頭之間貼附地很牢靠。透過控制外接的直流電源的電壓值,可以保證這三者之間有足夠的靜電吸附力,從而使安裝基板、電極與氣體噴淋頭之間均能夠緊密貼合,使其三者之間的熱傳導較好,從而能夠實現對氣體噴淋頭較好的溫度控制。In the plasma processing device provided by the present invention, the direct current is supplied to the electrodes through the direct current power supply, so that charges can be accumulated on the surfaces between the mounting substrate and the electrodes and between the electrodes and the gas shower head to generate strong static electricity The adsorption force makes the bonding between the mounting substrate and the electrode and between the electrode and the gas shower head. This adsorption force is relatively uniform, which makes the mounting substrate and the electrode and between the electrode and the gas shower head. Very solid. By controlling the voltage value of the external DC power supply, it is possible to ensure that there is sufficient electrostatic adsorption between the three, so that the mounting substrate, the electrode and the gas shower head can be closely attached, so that the three The heat conduction is better, thereby enabling better temperature control of the gas showerhead.

進一步地,由於安裝基板與電極同為鋁合金,二者之間不會產生形變差。Further, since the mounting substrate and the electrode are both aluminum alloys, there will be no difference in deformation between the two.

由於本發明提供的氣體噴淋頭與電極之間採用靜電吸附的方式進行連接,不需要在安裝基板和氣體噴淋頭之間採用螺釘進行固定,即氣體噴淋頭不需要額外的加工構成的機械固定結構,由此,氣體噴淋頭可以採用較薄的矽基材料片製成,具體來說,其厚度範圍為1mm~2mm,由此可知本發明所提供的氣體噴淋頭具有更好的柔韌性。即使安裝基板與電極在變溫過程中發生形變的情況下,也可以在靜電吸附力的作用下緊貼電極以保證熱傳導的穩定性。由於氣體噴淋頭採用較薄的矽基材料片,可以進一步提高矽基材料的利用率,降低上電極的製備成本。Since the gas shower head and the electrode provided by the present invention are connected by electrostatic adsorption, it is not necessary to use screws to fix the installation substrate and the gas shower head, that is, the gas shower head does not require additional processing. Mechanical fixing structure, thus, the gas shower head can be made of a thinner silicon-based material sheet, and specifically, its thickness ranges from 1 mm to 2 mm. It can be seen that the gas shower head provided by the present invention has better flexibility. Even if the mounting substrate and the electrode are deformed during the temperature change process, they can stick to the electrode under the action of electrostatic adsorption to ensure the stability of heat conduction. Since the gas shower head adopts a thin silicon-based material sheet, the utilization rate of the silicon-based material can be further improved, and the preparation cost of the upper electrode can be reduced.

本發明提供的電極的側壁與安裝基板的側壁採用第二固定件進行固定連接,即電極呈U型,透過側壁的螺絲孔位置的安排,保證安裝基板與電極設有的氣孔對準的唯一性。The side wall of the electrode provided by the present invention and the side wall of the mounting substrate are fixedly connected by a second fixing member, that is, the electrode is U-shaped, and the unique alignment of the air holes provided on the mounting substrate and the electrode is ensured through the arrangement of the screw holes of the side wall. .

本發明提供的上接地環進一步包含凸出部,凸出部位於環形臺階上,氣體噴淋頭上設有凹陷部,凸出部與凹陷部相匹配。藉此配置,實現了對氣體噴淋頭的定位,確保氣體噴淋頭的氣孔與電極上的第二氣孔進行對準。The upper grounding ring provided by the present invention further includes a protruding portion, the protruding portion is located on the annular step, the gas shower head is provided with a recessed portion, and the protruding portion is matched with the recessed portion. With this configuration, the positioning of the gas shower head is realized, and the air hole of the gas shower head is ensured to be aligned with the second air hole on the electrode.
