Description

單晶體直徑控制方法及裝置、單晶矽拉晶爐Single crystal diameter control method and device, single crystal silicon crystal pulling furnace

本發明屬於半導體技術領域,特別是指一種單晶體直徑控制方法及裝置、單晶矽拉晶爐。The invention belongs to the technical field of semiconductors, in particular to a single crystal diameter control method and device, and a single crystal silicon crystal pulling furnace.

單晶矽作為一種半導體材料,一般用於製造積體電路和其他電子元件。在製備矽單晶過程中,將直徑較小的籽晶浸入矽熔體中,通過引晶生長出一段直徑較細的細晶來排出位錯以達到生長零位元錯晶體的目的。之後會通過放肩過程,使得晶體由細晶長大到目標直徑,再通過等徑生長獲得所需要尺寸的晶體,最終通過收尾步驟,使晶棒與液面分離進而得到完整晶體。Monocrystalline silicon, as a semiconductor material, is generally used in the manufacture of integrated circuits and other electronic components. In the process of preparing silicon single crystal, the seed crystal with smaller diameter is immersed in silicon melt, and a section of fine crystal with smaller diameter is grown by seeding to discharge dislocations to achieve the purpose of growing zero dislocation crystal. After that, the shouldering process will be used to make the crystal grow from a fine crystal to the target diameter, and then the crystal of the required size will be obtained through equal-diameter growth. Finally, the final step will separate the crystal rod from the liquid surface to obtain a complete crystal.

等徑過程是長晶過程中極為關鍵的步驟過程,也是保證晶體品質良率的關鍵。晶體的直徑則是保證晶體生長穩定性的前提以及產品良率的保證;晶體直徑自動控制裝置則是保證晶體生長過程中直徑自動控制的關鍵;目前主要使用光學高溫計感測器以及電荷耦合器件(Charge Coupled Device,CCD)光學相機來對晶體直徑進行檢測,其中前者以其具備較小的採光視角,且受熱場部件干涉較小等優點,在複雜熱場結構系統中應用較多;晶體直徑自動控制裝置的工作原理是:通過光學感測器監控晶體生長過程中所產生光圈的亮度值,以及監控感測器的位置進行直徑控制;簡單來說就是通過一固定位置(與晶體的目標直徑對應)感測器的監控,來回饋晶體直徑的變化資訊。但實際生產過程中,隨著晶體長度的變化以及熱場內部結構的變化,晶體與液面處的光圈信號值會發生較大的變化,這主要是因為感測器所採集到的光圈亮度值實際是晶體與液面交匯處由於表面張力形成的彎月面,憑藉熔液以及石英坩堝內壁或者其他熱場部件的光學反射而形成一具有一定光亮的光圈;直徑監控感測器監控範圍內光圈亮度值的變化一方面是由於實際直徑的大小波動,另一方面則是由於光源-即熱場內部亮度發生變化,從而使得彎月面反射的光亮值產生變化;而,光源-即熱場內部亮度發生變化的主要原因是因為晶體在實際生長過程中,坩堝內的剩熔液量、坩堝內壁露出面積、加熱器功率、以及生長過程中液面與導流筒之間距離等參數都會隨著晶體生長發生相應變化,因此通過彎月面反射到感測器的光亮值也會產生很大的變化,這種情況下就會極大影響設備對直徑的控制進而最終影響生長拉速以及產品品質。The equal diameter process is an extremely critical step in the crystal growth process, and it is also the key to ensuring crystal quality and yield. The diameter of the crystal is the premise to ensure the stability of the crystal growth and the guarantee of the product yield; the crystal diameter automatic control device is the key to ensure the automatic control of the diameter during the crystal growth process; currently, optical pyrometer sensors and charge-coupled devices are mainly used (Charge Coupled Device, CCD) optical camera is used to detect the crystal diameter, and the former is widely used in complex thermal field structure systems due to its advantages such as a smaller viewing angle of light and less interference of heated field components; the crystal diameter The working principle of the automatic control device is: through the optical sensor to monitor the brightness value of the aperture generated during the crystal growth process, and to monitor the position of the sensor for diameter control; simply speaking, through a fixed position (with the target diameter of the crystal Corresponding) sensor monitoring to feed back the change information of the crystal diameter. However, in the actual production process, with the change of the crystal length and the change of the internal structure of the thermal field, the aperture signal value at the crystal and liquid surface will change greatly, mainly because the aperture brightness value collected by the sensor In fact, the meniscus formed by the surface tension at the intersection of the crystal and the liquid surface forms a certain bright aperture by virtue of the optical reflection of the melt and the inner wall of the quartz crucible or other thermal field components; within the monitoring range of the diameter monitoring sensor On the one hand, the change of the brightness value of the aperture is due to the fluctuation of the actual diameter, and on the other hand, it is due to the change of the internal brightness of the light source, that is, the thermal field, so that the light value reflected by the meniscus changes; The main reason for the change of internal brightness is that during the actual growth process of the crystal, parameters such as the amount of remaining molten liquid in the crucible, the exposed area of the inner wall of the crucible, the power of the heater, and the distance between the liquid level and the guide tube during the growth process will all be affected. As the crystal grows correspondingly, the light value reflected to the sensor through the meniscus will also change greatly. In this case, it will greatly affect the control of the diameter of the device and ultimately affect the growth rate and the product. quality.

As shown in Figure 4, wherein, the original image 1031 is the original image obtained in the detection field of view 103 of the diameter detection module 101, and the original image 1031 is subjected to binarization processing, that is, a gray scale threshold is set, and the original image The grayscale value of each graphic element like 1031 is compared with the grayscale threshold, if the grayscale value of the graphic element is greater than or equal to the grayscale threshold, the graphic element is adjusted to a white graphic element, if the grayscale value of the graphic element If the grayscale value is less than the grayscale threshold, adjust the primitive to be a black primitive; or, if the grayscale value of the primitive is greater than the grayscale threshold, then adjust the primitive to be a white primitive. If the grayscale value is less than or equal to the grayscale threshold, the graphic element is adjusted to a black graphic element, thereby obtaining a black and white image 1032 . Combined with the difference between the black and white pixel points, the boundary of the black and white area is fitted. It can be seen that the black and white image in the detection field of view is composed of black and white parts. Calculate the area ratio L of the white area and the black area, L=S1/S2, Among them, S1 is the area of the white area, S2 is the area of the black area, S1 represents the part occupied by the crystal in the detection field of view, S2 represents the part outside the crystal in the detection field of view, and the diameter of the crystal can be reflected by L. In this embodiment, the black-and-white image is obtained by binarizing the original image, which can realize the data noise reduction function and avoid the interference of the crystal line on the crystal surface to the detection result.

一些實施例中,為了降低資料處理量,可以在對原始圖像進行二值化處理之前,去除原始圖像中的背景。In some embodiments, in order to reduce the amount of data processing, the background in the original image may be removed before performing binarization processing on the original image.

當直徑檢測模組101以設定角度固定在導軌102設定位置時,認為該位置下,直徑檢測模組101所檢測到的液麵點與目標直徑所對應,參考圖1所示的位置,所檢測到的視野內白色區域與黑色區域的面積比為標準值,記為L1,當晶體直徑偏大時,檢測視野內白色區域會增大,此時L>L1,反之,L<L1。由於熔液量的減少以坩堝位置變化所導致熱場內環境光亮變化對檢測結果會產生干擾,因此,可以引入矯正係數對面積比例進行矯正,得到直徑資料值。比如,可以引入係數α將L放大,得到直徑資料值D=α × L(D非實際直徑,只代表或回饋直徑的變化趨勢),D值的變化可以回饋晶體的直徑變化,本實施例中,通過係數矯正,可以最大程度減小由於熔液量的減少以坩堝位置變化所導致熱場內環境光亮變化對檢測結果的干擾。When the diameter detection module 101 is fixed at the set position of the guide rail 102 at a set angle, it is considered that at this position, the liquid level point detected by the diameter detection module 101 corresponds to the target diameter. Referring to the position shown in Figure 1, the detected The area ratio of the white area to the black area in the field of view is the standard value, which is denoted as L1. When the crystal diameter is too large, the white area in the detection field of view will increase. At this time, L>L1, otherwise, L<L1. Since the reduction of the melt volume and the change of the crucible position will cause interference to the detection results in the ambient light in the thermal field, the correction coefficient can be introduced to correct the area ratio to obtain the diameter data value. For example, the coefficient α can be introduced to amplify L, and the diameter data value D=α × L can be obtained (D is not the actual diameter, but only represents or feeds back the change trend of the diameter), and the change of D value can feed back the change of the diameter of the crystal. In this embodiment , through the coefficient correction, the interference of the detection result due to the decrease of the melt volume and the change of the crucible position caused by the ambient light change in the thermal field can be minimized.

在拉晶過程中,多晶矽被裝進坩堝30內加熱熔化變為多晶熔液40,把一個具有特定晶向的晶體固定在籽晶夾頭結構的下端,拉制單晶矽棒時,首先將晶體與多晶熔液熔接,開始進入引晶階段;接著通過調整多晶熔液的溫度、晶體向上的提升速度等,使單晶矽經過放肩階段和轉肩階段不斷長大,最終拉制出單晶矽棒。其中,導流筒20用於將液面處溫度與晶棒外周環境分開,以保證合適的晶體生長溫度梯度;坩堝30可以是石英或者塢等材料製成,內壁較為光滑,具有一定光反射作用;生長出來的晶體50的晶體邊緣501(包含凸出的晶線)與多晶熔液40熔接。During the crystal pulling process, polysilicon is put into the crucible 30 and heated and melted to become a polycrystalline melt 40, and a crystal with a specific crystal orientation is fixed at the lower end of the seed chuck structure.

晶體生長過程中,在晶體50與多晶熔液40的交界處60,固液面由於熔液的表面張力形成彎月面結構,由於晶體結晶潛熱以及周邊光亮環境,從一定角度觀看,該彎月面結構會發出亮度高於周邊的光,稱其為光圈,直徑檢測模組對多晶熔液40和晶體50的交界處60進行圖像取樣,也就是對光圈進行圖像取樣。During the crystal growth process, at the junction 60 of the crystal 50 and the polycrystalline melt 40, the solid-liquid surface forms a meniscus structure due to the surface tension of the melt.
