Abstract

The present invention is about the fixture for clipping a semiconductor wafer to perform a rotating process, in which the fixture is used to horizontally fix a nearly circular semiconductor wafer in order to conduct a high-speed rotation process. The fixture comprises a circular base and plural support pillars installed on the circumference edge of the circular base, which are used to horizontally fix the semiconductor wafer. A groove is installed at the top end of each support pillar and is used to fix wafer edge of the semiconductor wafer and a clipping arm, which is able to move vertically. The clipping arm includes a spacer located on one end of the clipping arm and a weight hammer 32 located on the other end of the clipping arm. The central portion of the clipping arm is fixed at the top end of the support pillar in a manner capable of rotating. When the fixture is in the stationary state, the plural support clipping arm are located at a lifting position so as to make this semiconductor wafer be vertically loaded inside the groves of these plural support pillars. When the fixture is in the rotating state, the plural clipping arms will press downwards the wafer edge of semiconductor wafer due to the centrifugal force so as to prevent shaking generated when semiconductor wafer rotates at high-speed.

Description of the invention (1) The present invention provides a kind of semiconductor wafer missing parts, especially a jig used for holding a semiconductor wafer to perform a rotating process. In the semiconductor wafer manufacturing process, 'particles must be prevented from adhering. Only wafer contamination on the wafer surface and other man-made or environmental factors can control the production quality of semiconductor wafers. In the unit manufacturing process of some semiconductor wafers, particles will remain on the wafer surface and must be removed in a timely manner. For example, abrasive contamination remaining on the wafer surface after chemical mechanical polishing (Chemical Polishing) process, and thin film deposition (Thi n F i 1 m Depos iti 〇 On) After the process, the particles remaining on the wafer surface due to poor adhesion in the reactor must be removed in a timely manner for subsequent processes. So the wafer brushing process is A necessary procedure. The conventional method of brushing the semiconductor crystal moon is to fix the wafer on a brushing machine table by a semiconductor wafer fixture to perform the rotating brushing process, and how to make the crystal moon still fixed to the fixture under high speed rotation without The occurrence of sloshing is an important issue in the development of fixtures. Please refer to FIGS. 1 and 2 immediately. FIG. 1 is a schematic view of a conventional semiconductor wafer jig 10, and FIG. 2 is a top view of the illustrated jig. The semiconductor wafer holder 10 includes a rotating base 12 and six support pins w are disposed on the rotating base base 12 for fixing a semiconductor wafer 16. . Six support pins 14 are symmetrically arranged on the periphery of the circle of the rotary base 12, and five of the support pins 14 are uniformly fixed on the rotary base in a manner equidistant from the center of the circle of the rotary base 12.

PTD Page 4 4 ^ 8532 V. Description of the invention (2) On the periphery of the 12 circle, the other support pin η is closer to the circle center of the rotation base 12 The method is arranged on the periphery of the circle of the rotating base 12, and the semiconductor wafer 16 having a substantially circular shape can be tightly clamped on the six supporting pins 14. Raw wafers are generally of different sizes. 'Jig 10 is usually designed according to the largest semiconductor wafer, so smaller semiconductor wafers cannot be tightly clamped between the six support pins 14.' Smaller wafers can shake or even break under high-speed rotation. The rotating base 12 is an asymmetrical device, so in a high-speed rotating state, such as 4000 rpm, the rotating base 12 itself will also produce a shaking phenomenon. 'It will not only cause the motor of the brushing machine to rub against other parts and cause friction. For a long time, the particles will reduce the life of the scrubber and cause the wafer 16 fixed on the rotating base 12 to shake at the speed of the horse. In addition, because the position of the center of gravity of the wafer 16 and the rotating base 12 are different, the crystals of the wafer 16 under a long-term south speed rotation state

邊會嵌入支撐釘14並導致支撐釘14變形,造成後續之晶片 1 6的傳送異常。 BS 因此’本發明之主要目的在於提供一個用來爽持半導 體晶片以進行旋轉製程之夾具,可以防止半導鷇县片於高 速旋轉時產生晃動現象。 圖示之簡單說明 圖一為習知半導體晶片夾具之示意圖。The edges will be embedded in the support nails 14 and cause the support nails 14 to deform, resulting in abnormal transfer of subsequent wafers 16. BS Therefore, the main purpose of the present invention is to provide a jig for holding semiconductor wafers for the rotation process, which can prevent the wobbling phenomenon of semiconductor wafers during high-speed rotation.

When the weight of the clamp arm 28 presses the semiconductor with the rotation speed of the pad 30, the wobble is generated as shown in Figure 5, the pad 30, and the top hammer 32 of the clip will increase the semiconductor semiconductor hammer 32 by 16 degrees. Fig. 5 shows the phenomenon of pressing down. Fig. 4 is located in the middle of the clamp arm 28 and the arm 28. When the clamp 20 acts on the body wafer 16 due to gravity, the wafer clamp 20 is made of crystal edges due to centrifugal force, so that the centrifugal force is tighter. One end of the clamp arm 28 can be shown, and one part is at one, so the clamp is vertically at one When the horizontal ground is used to prevent the semi-rotary arm 28 from being placed into the rotating clamp arm 28, the fixed half will be larger. When the conductor crystal is heavy, the weight is 32, and when the washer 30 is in multiple states, The spacer conductor crystals make the sheet 16u. The clamp arms are located in the clamp type, each in the lifting groove 26, each 30, and the downward piece 16. Compared with the conventional clamp 10, the clamp arm 28 has a high-speed rotation. The clamp 20 of the present invention uses the support 桎 24 on the circular base and the clamp arm 28 to fix the semiconductor wafer. Due to the centrifugal force of the hammer 32, the shim 30 of the clamp arm is pressed down on the crystal edge of the semiconductor wafer 16, so that the wafer 6 can be prevented from shaking or breaking under high-speed rotation. In addition, when the holder 20 of the present invention is used in a wafer brushing process, not only can the wafer be prevented from shaking, but also the life of the brushing machine can be extended. The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and all equivalent changes and modifications made in accordance with the scope of the patent application for the present invention shall fall within the scope of the invention patent. 1 ^ ·
