Description of the invention () Field of the invention-The present invention relates to a wafer transfer system, especially a smart type that can automatically detect the distance between a carrier plate used to carry a wafer and its surrounding objects Wafer transfer system (smart robot wafer transfer system). BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION = With the continuous advancement of the semiconductor industry, the design dimensions of integrated circuits have entered the sub-micron stage. With the evolution of this trend and trend, in the design and manufacture of related machines and equipment in the semiconductor industry, they are also developing towards machines and equipment that meet the small-scale and high-efficiency production capacity, so as to effectively shorten the process cycle. And improve product yield. The design of the wafer transfer system has also been continuously developed and improved. In addition to facilitating the transfer of wafers between various types of equipment, the wafers can be transferred more quickly and accurately. Going beyond the desired position1 It is more effective to prevent the wafer from being damaged improperly during the transfer process. Printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs (please read the note on the back before filling out this page) Please refer to the first figure, which shows a cross-sectional view of a typical wafer transfer process. One cassette 2 is used to store wafers, such as wafer 4 and wafer 6 in the first figure. In addition, a load plate 8 connected to a robot arm (not shown in the figure) is extended into the cassette 2 through the control of the robot arm to support the wafer 4 to be processed, where It should be noted that the carrying plate 8 has an upper surface 8a and a lower surface 8b, and the upper paper size is in accordance with the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 standard (210 = < 297 mm B7. V. Description of the invention) (Please read the precautions on the f side before filling in this page> The surface 8a is used to contact the wafer 4 and support the wafer 4. Please refer to the second figure, which shows the bottom view of the carrier plate 8 In the figure, the carrier plate 8 holds the wafer 4 as described above. Then please refer to the third figure. After the wafer 4 to be processed is held, the carrier plate 8 leaves the cassette through the control of the robot arm. 2, and the wafer 4 is transferred to the machine 10 in the fourth figure. The upper surface of the machine 10 is provided with a bracket 12 for supporting the wafer 4 during the process. After the wafer 4 is placed on the support 12, under the control of a robot arm, the carrying plate 8 is released from the machine 10 Fang removed it, leaving the wafer 4 on the machine 10 to perform the process. It is printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs. It should be noted that the carrier plate 8 is loading or unloading the wafer. In the 4 procedure, an indicator device (mdexer) is often used to control the relevant position of the bearing plate S. That is, by using the position set by the indicator device, the bearing plate 8 is moved to the position by a robot arm for carrying / unloading. However, in this case, when the position of the carrying plate 8 is different from the set position, the robot arm cannot immediately and effectively respond and dispose, but still only moves the carrying plate according to the data provided by the index device. In this case Next, when the loading / unloading procedure shown in the third figure is performed, the upper surface 4a of the loaded wafer 4 and the cassette 2 are caused to touch, or the lower surface 8b of the loaded flat plate 8 and the crystal pattern are caused. 6 The upper surface 6a touches and scratches the upper surface of the wafer 4 or 6. In addition, as shown in the fourth figure, when the wafer 4 is transferred above the machine 10 ,also Due to the above-mentioned errors, the loading plate 8 and the machine 10 can collide with each other, resulting in damage to the loading plate 8 and the machine 10. Especially as mentioned above, as the semiconductor element paper size applies the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A 'l size (210 x 297 male cage) 424289 Λ7 B7 V. Description of the invention () The continuous reduction in the size of the piece, even the slightest scratches may cause damage to the components, which reduces the yield of the product. Please read the precautions on the back before filling in this page.) Furthermore, because such wafer surface damage is often not immediately and effectively detected and disposed of, it is often only in the subsequent process or until the integrated component is being processed. Only relevant tests were found. As a result, it has often caused a large amount of chip damage, which has greatly reduced the product yield and increased the cost consumed. Therefore, in the traditional process, the periodic maintenance and calibration of the transfer system is often used to effectively reduce the chance of wafer damage. In addition, interlocks are also installed in the equipment such as the machine table and the cassette, so as to determine whether the wafer has been positioned using a laser detection beam. In this way, although it is effective to know whether the crystal pattern has reached the positioning position, it is still not effective to determine whether the surface of the wafer is in contact with surrounding objects and scratched on the surface during the conveyance ° / Purpose of the invention and description = This The object of the invention is to provide a wafer transfer system for preventing the carrier plate from touching the surrounding objects during the wafer transfer process. Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs Another object of the present invention is to provide a wafer transfer system for real-time monitoring of the operation status of the carrier plate.
