Description of the invention () Background of the invention (please read the precautions on the back before filling out this page) In the process of forming a semiconductor element 1 Before forming the subsequent layers, different layers (such as oxides) need Flattened to remove pitch or high relief. The typical planarization effect is to mechanically force the semiconductor substrate s to face down on a semi-porous polishing pad that is full of a compound with polishing effect (ie, polishing slurry), and make the polishing pad relative to the substrate s Spin. The polishing slurry reacts with the surface of the substrate, making the surface easy to remove, and the rotating movement between the polishing pad and the substrate can mechanically remove the centered oxide, and continue until the oxide level or the height fluctuation is completely removed 3 This process is usually called chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) = The first picture is a schematic top view of a traditional chemical mechanical polishing device Π The polishing device 11 includes a rotatable platform 15 on which a polishing pad with grooves is set up 17. Used to grind the semiconductor substrate S. The polishing pad 17 includes at least one groove 19 and typically has a plurality of concentric grooves 19 arranged along the outer edge of the polishing pad 17. The grinding device 1 is printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs. It also includes a rotating shaft arm 2 1. A bracket or adjusting head 2 installed at the end of the rotating shaft arm 2 1 3. Such as grinding slurry / washing (s 1 urry / rinse) The source of the polishing slurry of the arm 2 5, such as a polishing pad adjuster 2 7 a mounted on the bottom surface of the adjustment head 2 3 and embedded with a diamond crystal pad, and a groove coupled to the operation of the platform 15 and resting against the polishing pad 17 The tank 19 is pressurized to the substrate mounting head 29 of the substrate S. The rotation arm 21 is coupled to the operation of the platform 15. When the rotation arm 21 is swept back and forth across the radius of the polishing pad 丨 7 in an arc, the adjustment head 2 3 is held against the polishing pad 17, as described in detail below. Grinding slurry / washing arm 2 5 series is fixed. The paper size is applicable to China National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (2! Ox2 @ ii ·! :) 4 34 113 、, A 7 B7 Five 'invention description () The scanning range of W 2 1 is outside, and the adjusting head 2 3 is weighed in there. In operation, the substrate S is placed face down under the substrate mounting head 29, and the substrate mounting head 29 firmly presses the substrate S against the groove portion of the polishing pad 17. The polishing slurry is introduced into the polishing pad 17 via the polishing slurry / washing arm 25, and the table 15 is rotated in the direction indicated by arrow R1. The rotating shaft f 21 scans from edge to edge in the shape movement shown by arrow S 1, and the adjustment head 2 3 rotates in the direction shown by arrow · head R2. [Groove] 9 guides a polishing slurry (not shown) between the substrate S and the polishing pad 17. The semi-porous surface of the polishing pad 17 becomes filled with polishing slurry. With the downward force of the substrate mounting head 29 and the rotation of the table 15, the polishing slurry grinds and flattens the surface of the substrate S. The diamond crystal embedded in the rotating regulator 2 7 a continuously roughens the surface of the polishing pad 17 to ensure that the polishing rate is consistent. When the polishing slurry fills the groove below the substrate mounting head 29, the downward force of the substrate mounting head 29 and the substrate S below it, in addition to the effects of other factors such as pH, temperature, and polishing itself, It is easy to compact and / or dry the slurry particles 1 in the groove 19 to form a hard mass that may move and scratch the substrate S. Therefore, a step of cleaning the polishing pad must be performed frequently to remove the chips and the consolidated polishing slurry from the polishing pad.

Description of the invention () After grinding. However, such frequent cleaning will increase the consumption cost of the cleaning liquid and reduce the total output of the grinding device 11. Therefore, there is a need for an improved grinding system to provide a more efficient and lower cost grinding and cleaning method. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention provides an apparatus for grinding semiconductor substrates. The equipment includes a rotatable platform, a polishing pad mounted on the rotatable platform, and a slurry / washing arm with dual positions. This slurry / washing arm has a slurry supply line with a slurry outlet and a cleaning liquid supply line with a cleaning liquid outlet. The grinding slurry / washing arm is coupled to the rotatable platform via a mechanism that moves the arm between the grinding position and the cleaning position. The grinding position is where the grinding slurry / washing arm supplies the grinding slurry from a position far from the center of the polishing pad. To the location of the polishing pad, and the cleaning position is the location where the polishing slurry / washing arm supplies cleaning liquid to the center of the polishing pad. In the cleaning position, the polishing slurry / cleaning arm is preferably located above or near the center of the polishing pad, so that the cleaning liquid can be sprayed on the center of the polishing pad (that is, the position where the cleaning liquid is supplied directly to the center of the polishing pad). Preferably, the grinding slurry supply line can be horizontally bent at different angles, that is, it has a horizontal angle (angled h 〇ri ζ ο nta 丨 1 y), and when the arm is in the grinding position, it is at the center of the grinding 蛰There is a horizontal distance. Because the slurry / cleaning arm can be placed in a dual position, the arm can be installed and placed in an appropriate position to achieve the best cleaning effect 'without being restricted by the path of the adjustment head or substrate mounting head. Therefore, the paper size of the present invention is applicable to the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification ~ (Please read the notes on the back before filling in this card) Printed by the staff of the Intellectual Property Office of the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Cooperatives 434 1 13 at B7 five ' Description of the invention () The polishing slurry / cleaning back of the polishing equipment is used to supply the cleaning liquid across the entire radius of the listening pad, which is similar to the traditional polishing equipment that fixed the polishing slurry / washing arm and cannot reach the center of the polishing pad. Lower, can provide better cleaning. In a first embodiment, the cleaning liquid outlet includes a linear nozzle that sends out a spray that extends from the edge of the polishing pad to at least the center of the polishing pad, or contains a plurality of cleaning liquid nozzles, the spray of which is preferably uniform from the polishing pad The edges extend to at least the center of the polishing pad. In this way, when the polishing pad is rotated, the entire polishing pad can be cleaned. In another embodiment, the cleaning nozzle may extend across the entire diameter of the polishing pad to reduce the cleaning time, or the cleaning liquid outlet may scan back and forth from the edge to the center of the polishing pad. In a second embodiment, the grinding slurry / washing arm includes a 塾 -shaped brush (p a d b r u s h) which engages with the arm so that when the arm is in the cleaning position, it will contact the grinding 塾. Therefore, the arm is lower in the cleaning position than it is in the grinding position. The pad brush can accelerate the rate of particle removal and loosen the compacted particles from the groove of the pad. If there is only a cleaning nozzle there, Either the particles cannot be removed, or a relatively long cleaning time and / or a large amount of cleaning liquid is required to remove the particles. In spite of the wear, in order to maintain uniform contact with the substrate, the pad brush is preferably coupled to the arm with a universal joint. In a further embodiment, one or more cleaning liquid nozzles are used and placed at a position where the cleaning liquid is introduced into the pad brush (ie, the brush nozzle (brush η ο zz 1 e)) to prevent particles from being collected in In the brush, or (please read the notes on the back before filling this page) This paper size is applicable to China National Standard (CNS) A4 specifications (210 X) 134113- printed by the Consumer Cooperative of Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs A7 B7 V.

The above equipment in the description of the invention () and The improvement of the method will be obvious and obvious to the skilled artist ". For example, when implementing the present invention (i m p I e m en t i n g), the structure of the polishing slurry / cleaning back may be significantly changed. The slurry / washing back may rotate vertically, taking a vertical position during grinding with the slurry, which is supplied to the polishing pad by the lower part of the arm. The cleaning solution outlet may contain one or more nozzles that scan the radius of the polishing pad during the cleaning step; or the arm may extend longer and span the entire diameter range of the polishing pad during cleaning, thus reducing the cleaning cycle time (cyc 1 etime). In addition, instead of coupling the mortar / washing arm bottom to the arm part chain, the bottom part and the arm part may be fixedly connected, and the bottom part itself may be able to rotate, raise and lower the arm part. Any type of nozzle that provides sufficient spray to evenly clean the polishing pad or brush (such as linear nozzles, multiple fan nozzles) can be used, and can be designed as a straight or angled spray. Finally, the grinders described herein are merely exemplary, and other grinder structures (such as those using grindstones in the form of conversion belts, etc.) may also benefit from the present invention. Therefore, although the present invention and its related preferred embodiments have been disclosed, it should be understood that other embodiments may also conform to the spirit and scope of the present invention as defined by the following patent scope. ------------ " Installation ---------- Order --------- line (please first: #Notes on the back before filling in this hundred ') Page 13 This paper size applies to the 0 national standard (CNSM-1 specification (21ϋ X 297 public 坌 >
