Abstract

There is provided a method for detecting the breakdown of a plasma process machinery in real time by monitoring the impedance value, which comprises: first, using a robot to transfer a wafer to the reaction chamber; then, setting the standard process conditions for the plasma process machinery; then, using an external current and voltage detector to measure the current, voltage and impedance in the manufacturing process; and establishing a standard value table. In performing the manufacturing process, the established standard value can be used to monitor the current, voltage and impedance in the manufacturing process. If the monitored value exceeds the standard value by a tolerance value, the process is terminated and the machinery is checked.

Description of the invention (Invention A7 B7 The present invention relates to a method for detecting a failure in a plasma processing system. Zeshi and others are a method for measuring the plasma processing system in real time by measuring the current, voltage, and impedance values. The method of failure. The Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs' employee consumer cooperative has printed in recent years that the semiconductor wafer fab has progressed to 8, and the mass production scale of wafers has also begun to plan the construction and production of 12 '' wafers. , Ready to welcome another generation of industrial scale. Therefore, each plant continues to expand its production capacity and expand its plant area, it seems that a short pause will defeat the competition. Therefore, the process technology is being pushed forward continuously Moving forward, that is, the entire semiconductor industry is falling into a chase war of end-to-end technology change. In the competition, in addition to updating process equipment, the most important thing is to maintain the normal operation of the factory to cooperate with the factory work, and the two aspects of expenditure are capital The biggest case of wealth. The application of encapsulation in semiconductors is almost everywhere. For example, in film deposition, plasma has been used in sputtering () and PEC. On VD, in terms of surname engraving, it has become the main force of dry money engraving technology. In ion implantation technology, the ion source of the ion implanter is generated by the principle of plasma, and it is becoming more and more frequent now. The ozone 03 used in the te〇s / 〇3Cvd system is converted from oxygen by the electric method. Therefore, according to the above description, it can be known that plasma accounts for the semiconductor process.

Description of the invention (essential «— — — IIIII1 I · I ί (Please read the notes on the back before filling this page) Please refer to the first picture, which is shown as A schematic drawing of an apparatus for a plasma process machine, wherein the machine includes a process reaction chamber (chambe〇2, and in the etching reaction chamber 2, there is an upper electrode plate ⑶ 卯 eieitrode) 4 and a lower electrode Plate (lower electrode) 6. In addition, a gas inlet line (Gas inlet hne) 8 is connected above the etching reaction chamber 2 for the reaction gas to flow in. As for the other end of the input line 8, it is connected to the gas flow controller 10 for controlling the gas flow rate, and then passes through the gas control device (not shown in the figure). (Shown) to determine the type of reaction gas. In addition, the last name of the reaction chamber 2 is externally connected to a pump 18 to remove the reaction gas from the etching reaction chamber 2. It is connected to the pump There is a throttle valve 20 on the pipeline of the gas generator 18 to control the flow of gas. The lower electrode plate 6 of the reaction chamber 2 has an electrostatic chuck (not shown in the figure). In the engraving process, it is used to place silicon wafers. At the same time, the lower electrode plate 6 is connected to a stepping motor 22, which can move the lower electrode plate 6. It is printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs to adjust the gap with the upper electrode plate 4. In the plasma etching equipment, a bias power source 14 (bias power) and a plasma power source 16 (Plasma Power) are connected to a matching network 12, respectively. The matching network is generally composed of one or more inductors and The capacitor is formed by adjusting the impedance of the one or more inductors and the different impedances of the capacitor to match the impedance of the reaction chamber with the impedance of the plasma power source to protect the plasma power source 16 and the bias source 14. During the plasma process, 'the process reaction gas is input into the reaction chamber 2, and then the plasma power source 16 and the bias source 1 4 are used to control the reaction. The paper size is in accordance with Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 (210 X 297). (Mm) 497195 Printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs A7 B7 V. Description of the invention () Plasma plasma is formed by the gas movement process above the surface of the silicon wafer. Generally speaking, the biggest problem encountered in the process is that the reaction chamber 2 generates uncertain process errors, such as the instability of various process parameters, which leads to a reduction in product yield and damage to the wafer. The process parameter errors may come from the leakage of air into the reaction chamber, the flow rate of the reaction gas entering the reaction chamber, the adjustment of the gap between the upper and lower electrode plates, or the pressure of the reaction chamber. Especially during the process, the failure of the wafer process caused by such unpredictable machine failures can often be detected only when the inspection is performed regularly or the machine performs an off-line self-test. As a result, thousands of wafers are often damaged, which greatly affects the quality of products in the VL SI process. However, due to the large number of process parameters affecting the plasma reaction chamber 2, any component or pipeline in the plasma process machine may cause sudden changes in process parameters. On the plasma machines currently in use, although the components can be periodically replaced and tested one by one to prevent the occurrence of failures, for sudden machine failures, the precautionary steps cannot be achieved in advance, often It is necessary to wait until the end of the process and find that the process yield has decreased before starting the inspection. There are often inconveniences. For example, in the plasma process, the gas flow controller 10 may cause a faulty gas flow.
