L 丨 ΐ 丨 丨) 2 Α7 _____ Β7 ________ V. Description of the Invention (I) The invention is about a device for semiconductor manufacturing process, and especially about a chemical liquid nozzle. In the semiconductor process, spraying the developer is one of the very important parameters affecting the uniformity of the critical dimension (CD). For deep submicron photoresistance, the pattern is larger than twelve seconds after the photoresist contacts the developer. The definition is complete, so When spraying the developer, it is important to 'make the developer uniformly coated in the shortest time. Conventional spraying of the developer is almost carried out by a rotary spray method. The wafer I 0 is placed on a spinner. After the spinner drives the wafer to rotate, the developer sprayed on the surface of the wafer 10 is developed. The liquid will move to the periphery of the wafer 10 due to centrifugal force, and the thickness of the developing solution is related to the viscosity of the developing solution, as well as the rotation speed of the spinner and the nozzle that sprays the developing solution. Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of a conventional chemical liquid spray head and wafer. It is common to use an E2 head body 12 to spray the developer solution. Because the E2 head body 12 has a row of nozzle holes 14 arranged linearly, and the wafer 1 During the rotation, the displacement amount of the center point of the wafer 10 is zero, and the closer to the edge of the wafer garden 10 is, the greater the displacement amount is in a unit time, so that the developer is sprayed on the wafer through the nozzle holes 14 on the E2 head body 12 When it is 10, the developer solution that is closer to the center point of the wafer 10 is thicker, resulting in uneven distribution of the developer solution. This is especially true when the resolution limit and the critical dimension (critical dimension (CD)) which are increasingly demanding are increased, and the pattern error caused by lithography imaging will become more apparent. In order to make the first conductor process technology move to a narrower line width technology, the distribution is evenly displayed (please read the precautions on the back before filling this page) _ ____ Order --------- Line — This paper scale applies to China National Standard (CNS) A4 Specification (21 × 297 mm) Printed by the Consumers ’Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs * '1 clothing 8.-6 2 6 A? _B7 V. Description of the Invention (the) Film is very urgently needed . In summary, it is known that the technique of spraying the developer through the main body of the E2 head to form a photoresist will make it difficult to control its critical Kv when approaching the resolution threshold, and the critical size uniformity after development cannot meet the requirements of the current process = The invention provides a chemical liquid spray head, which includes a spray head body, and the spray head body includes a plurality of spray holes arranged in an hourglass shape, which can spray a chemical liquid with a uniform thickness. The present invention provides a chemical liquid spray head, which is suitable for spraying a developer, and includes a spray head body. The spray head body includes a plurality of spray holes arranged in an hourglass-like shape, which can spray a developing liquid of uniform thickness. In order to make the above and other objects, features, and advantages of the present invention more comprehensible, F text specifically presents a preferred embodiment, and in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, the detailed description is as follows: Brief description of the drawings: FIG. 1 A schematic view of a conventional chemical liquid ejection head and a wafer; and FIG. 2 is a schematic view of a chemical liquid ejection head and a wafer of the present invention. Explanation of the marks in the drawings: 1 0, 2 0: wafer 12, 22: nozzle body 14, 24: nozzle hole Embodiment 2 The schematic diagram of the chemical liquid nozzle and wafer of the present invention is shown in the second figure.

Line A7 Printed by the Intellectual Property Bureau Employee Consumer Cooperative of the Ministry of Economic Affairs 5. Description of the Invention (Multiple) The displacement of the point it is zero, and the closer it is to the edge of the wafer 20 The greater the amount of displacement in a unit time. Therefore, when different positions on the wafer 20 are different from the center of the wafer 20 and have different displacements in a unit time, if the chemical liquid can be sprayed uniformly on the surface of the wafer 20, such as spraying the developer, the nozzle Further corrections must be made so that the same volume of developer is sprayed on a unit area of any part of the wafer 20. Referring to FIG. 2, the nozzle holes 24 on the elongated nozzle body 22 of the present invention are distributed in an hourglass-like pattern. When spraying chemical liquid on a wafer with the elongated nozzle body 22 of the present invention, the strips are elongated. The center point of the head body 22 is aligned with the center of the wafer 20, and the distribution of the nozzle holes 24 in the strip head body 22 gradually increases from the center point of the head body 22 to the ends of the head body 22 until The number of nozzle holes 24 closest to the edge of the wafer 20 reached the maximum. For example, the number of nozzle holes of the long nozzle body 22 closest to the center of the wafer 20 is 0 or 1, and then the number of nozzle holes 24 closer to the edge of the wafer 20 gradually increases until the nozzle holes closest to the edge of the wafer 20 When the number of 24 reaches 4, and the nozzle holes 24 are distributed in an hourglass-like symmetrical pattern on the nozzle body 22 = because when the displacement amount of the edge portion of the wafer 20 in the unit time is the largest when the wafer 20 is rotated, When the chemical liquid is sprayed by the nozzle body 22 with a larger number of nozzle holes 24 closer to the edge portion of the wafer 20 of the present invention, a layer of chemical liquid having the same thickness on the entire surface of the wafer 20 can be obtained. If the sprayed chemical liquid is a developer for lithographic imaging with P, the pattern of lithographic imaging is not due to the thickness of the developer during spraying (please read the precautions on the back before filling this page) -I · nn 一 _ n I— n II n ϋ n iBi an a ^ i 1_ > {nn. ^ 1 If a ^ i.

The description of the invention (the difference between the degrees of ({) causes an error '). Therefore, it is applicable to the situation where the critical dimension (CD) is increasingly required, and The technology for making semiconductor process technology to a narrower line width. According to the above-mentioned preferred embodiments of the present invention, it can be known that the application of the present invention can spray a chemical liquid of a uniform thickness. The error occurs due to the difference in the thickness of the developer spray at the beginning. Moreover, the present invention is not limited to the use of spray developer, any chemical liquid to be uniformly sprayed on the wafer can be carried out by the spray head of the present invention. Different rotation speeds, so it can be matched Circular rotation speed to adjust the distribution of nozzle holes. If the wafer rotation speed is faster, the number of nozzle holes on the nozzle body closer to the edge of the wafer can be increased. This can be adjusted as needed to allow the chemical liquid to pass through the wafer. The surface is most uniformly distributed. Although the present invention is disclosed as above with the preferred embodiment, it is not intended to limit the present invention. Any person skilled in the art can make various changes without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
