The metallization of deep sub-micron features is used in today's and future generations of integrated circuit process _ key technology. More particularly, in a device such as an oversized integrated device (i.e., a device having an integrated circuit comprising more than one million logic gates > multiple interconnects placed at the core of such devices) Deposition of high aspect ratios (eg, interconnects greater than 4: υ) with conductive materials (such as copper or inscriptions). Conventional deposition techniques such as chemical vapor deposition (CVD) and physical vapor deposition (PVD) have been used. In order to fill these interconnect features. However, as the interconnect size shrinks and the aspect ratio increases, the phenomenon of void-free interconnects through conventional metal: technology is becoming more difficult, such as electrochemical plating (ECP) and Electrodeless plating 4V^ ^ Electroplating technology, as a process that can be filled with deep submicron size high aspect ratio interconnects in the integrated circuit process. In electrochemical electrowinning processes, for example, formed in the base The characteristics of the deep micro-t-size and high aspect ratio of the material surface can be fully filled with conductive materials (such as illusion. The electrochemical key-bonding process consists of first depositing a seed crystal 1290591 layer on the surface of the substrate. And entering the features of the substrate (the seed layer deposition process is substantially separate from the electrochemical plating process), and then exposing the surface-surface features of the substrate to a plating solution, while an electrical bias is simultaneously Applied to the substrate • ~ The plating solution is substantially rich in positive ions to be electroplated on the surface of the substrate, and thus the application of the electrical bias causes the positive ions to be pushed away The plating solution is electroplated on the seed layer. Referring to FIGS. 1A and 1B, an external perspective view and an exploded perspective view of a conventional electrochemical ore φ device 100 are shown.

It can be understood that the pressure of the gas provided by the detecting unit 260 in the space 280 is less than the pressure applied when the push plate 218 pushes the fixed wafer 290, so that the sidewall 218a of the plate 218 and the wafer 290 are pressed. The back surface 290a can be brought into contact to form a space 280. Further, in the present embodiment, the wafer 290 is used as the substrate for electrochemical plating, but the substrate is not limited thereto, and substrates of other materials may be used. The present invention is characterized in that the sidewall 21 8a of the push plate 2 18 is in close contact with the back surface 290a of the wafer 290, thereby forming a space 280 between the push plate 218 and the wafer 290, and using the air hole 218b of the push plate 218 The space 280 is connected to the gas line 268 of the debt measuring unit 260. Therefore, when the detecting unit 260 is operated, a clean and dry air of more than one atmosphere (i.e., 14 7 psi) 11 1290591 is sent from the gas source 262, and the pressure of the pressure regulating valve 264 is adjusted to a pressure slightly greater than one atmosphere (for example, 15 psi), the pneumatic chamber 266 opens the switch of the gas line 268 to deliver gas through the gas line 268 and the vent 21 to the space 28 between the push plate 218 and the wafer 290, and creates a space 28 in the space 28 Gas pressure of 15pS1. At this time, if there is no gap between the wafer 29〇 and the side wall 21 8a of the push plate 218, the gas supplied from the detecting unit 26〇 will not leak out from the space 280, so the pressure gauge 27〇 is detected. The air pressure of the space 280 does not decrease. This condition indicates that the wafer 29 〇 = the contact ring 217 is well bonded, and the wafer 29 〇 itself has no damage; if the wafer 290 and the side wall 218 of the push plate 218 are joined If the gap or the structure of the wafer 290 itself is defective, the gas supplied from the detecting unit 26 will leak out from the space 280, so that the pressure detected by the pressure gauge 27〇 will decrease. 29〇 is poorly bonded to the contact ring 217 or even the wafer 290 itself has a fragment. It can be understood that the configuration of the components of the detecting unit 260 is not limited to the above manner. For example, the pressure gauge 270 may be directly disposed on the push plate 218 and communicated with the space 280 to measure the space 28 The pressure is not limited to any of the detecting means for transporting gas into the space 280 and detecting the change in the pressure of the space of 28 〇 is included in the scope of the present invention. Referring to Figure 3, there is shown a flow chart of an electroless plating method in accordance with another embodiment of the present invention. First, a wafer 31 is provided in which the front side (production surface) of the crystal has at least one seed layer. Next, a crystal is placed on the contact ring 320, wherein the seed layer on the front side of the wafer is in electrical contact with the contact ring. Thereafter, a push plate is used to push the back surface (non-production surface) of the wafer 12 ^ 290591 3 3 0 ' to bond the wafer to the contact ring, wherein a space is formed between the push plate and the wafer. Then, the gas is introduced into the space between the push plate and the wafer by 34 〇 so that the gas pressure in the space reaches a predetermined gas pressure value, wherein the preset gas pressure value is at least greater than one atmosphere. Thereafter, it is detected whether there is a change 350 in the air pressure in the space to determine whether or not to perform the plating process. In this embodiment, the step of detecting the air pressure in the space uses a pressure gauge to detect the air pressure in the space. If the air pressure in the space drops from the preset air pressure value, it indicates that the wafer _ may not be placed so well that A gap is created between the wafer and the push plate or a fragment or defect occurs in the process of the support, thereby causing air leakage. At this time, a warning signal 360 is issued to notify the staff to check the condition of the wafer; if the air pressure in the space is still When the preset air pressure value is maintained, it indicates that the bonding between the wafer and the push plate is good or the structure of the wafer itself is not damaged, so that there is no air leakage, and at this time, the electrochemical plating process 37G is performed. In this implementation, the preset air pressure value is 15 psi. However, as long as the pressure is greater than the value of one 纟 air pressure, it can be used as the preset air pressure value. It can be understood that in the present embodiment, in addition to the circle as the substrate for electrochemical electric ore, the substrate of other materials may be used. In addition, in the present embodiment, the seed layer functions as the conductive, therefore, One of the advantages of the invention is that it provides a kind of bonding with the support unit or a wafer process, and it is good to determine whether or not to carry out subsequent electroplating. 损: The loss causes waste of manufacturing time and cost. Therefore, the electrochemical electroplating apparatus of the present invention and the conventional electrochemical electro-mineralizing apparatus, 13 1290591, are in a complete state, and can also detect whether the wafer is in contact with the wafer in addition to being able to detect the wafer. To reduce the yield of the plating process by the debt measuring unit, the adverse effect on the plating process, and the further advantage of improving the electrode is to provide an electrochemical plating method for detecting the condition of the substrate.禆庄Λ秘上& soil double claw several ECG wafer tray support sheet.
