在半導體製程中,讓原有的晶片上長出新結晶以製成新半導體層晶片的磊晶技術,是一項很重要的技術,而晶片之所以會形成凹或凸的形貌,主要原因是在磊晶製程中,後來磊晶的半導體層與原本晶片薄膜的晶格常數不同或熱膨脹係數之不同,使整體的磊晶結構產生形變,而過大的形變將造成磊晶結構薄膜破裂。在磊晶技術中,若可即時量測磊晶結構的曲率變化,可以根據曲率變化決定通入氣體之流量及施加之溫度,減少整體磊晶結構產生形變,因此,量測磊晶結構的曲率變化愈顯重要。 In the semiconductor process, it is an important technology to make new crystals on the original wafer to make the epitaxial technology of the new semiconductor layer wafer. The main reason is that the wafer will form a concave or convex shape. In the epitaxial process, the epitaxial semiconductor layer and the original wafer film have different lattice constants or different thermal expansion coefficients, which cause the overall epitaxial structure to be deformed, and excessive deformation causes the epitaxial film to rupture. In the epitaxial technology, if the curvature change of the epitaxial structure can be measured instantaneously, the flow rate of the gas to be applied and the temperature applied can be determined according to the curvature change, thereby reducing the deformation of the overall epitaxial structure, and therefore, measuring the curvature of the epitaxial structure Change is more and more important.

In this example, the first and second voltages V 1 and V 2 are input to the inverting input terminals of the fourth amplifier 421 through the sixth and seventh resistors R 6 and R 7 , respectively, from the fourth amplifier 421 . The output terminal outputs the addition signal Sum as shown in FIG. 6, and the change of the addition signal Sum with time is as shown in FIG.
子步驟C3:利用該減法器43接收該第一、第二電壓V1、V2並進行訊號相減而輸出該減法信號Diff。在本例中,該第一、第二電壓V1、V2分別經過該第十一、第十電阻R11、R10輸入至該第五放大器431的反相、非反相輸入端,從該第五放大器431的輸出端輸出該減法信號Diff,如圖6所示,且該減法信號Diff隨時間的變化如圖9所示。 Sub-step C3: receiving the first and second voltages V 1 and V 2 by the subtractor 43 and performing signal subtraction to output the subtraction signal Diff.

The output of the fifth amplifier 431 outputs the subtraction signal Diff, as shown in FIG. 6, and the variation of the subtraction signal Diff with time is as shown in FIG.
子步驟C4:利用該處理器44接收該等加法信號Sum及該等減法信號Diff,並將該等減法信號Diff與其對應的加法信號Sum代入一曲率公式處理而得到量測的該待測物體6的表面之曲率,該曲率公式如下所示:C=W(Diff/Sum)/HD...........(4) Sub-step C4: The processor 44 receives the addition signal Sum and the subtraction signal Diff, and substitutes the subtraction signal Diff and its corresponding addition signal Sum into a curvature formula to obtain the measured object 6 to be measured. The curvature of the surface, the curvature formula is as follows: C=W(Diff/Sum)/HD...........(4)
其中,參數C為量測的該待測物體6的曲率,參數W為該位置偵測器3平行該第一方向X的邊長之二分之一,參數H為該位置偵測器3至量測的該待測物體6的高度,參數D為該雷射光束在量測的該待測物體6的表面形成之路徑的長度。 The parameter C is the measured curvature of the object 6 to be measured, and the parameter W is one-half of the side length of the position detector 3 parallel to the first direction X, and the parameter H is the position detector 3 to The height of the object 6 to be measured is measured, and the parameter D is the length of the path formed by the laser beam on the surface of the object 6 to be measured.
在本例中,利用該處理器44將每一減法信號Diff與其對應的加法信號Sum相除得到一除法信號,該等除法信號隨時間的變化如圖10所示,利用該處理器44將圖10內的最大值減去最小值後除以二,取得該等除法信號的一中間值帶入公式(4)處理,即可得到量測的該待測物體6的表面之曲率。 In this example, the processor 44 divides each subtraction signal Diff by its corresponding addition signal Sum to obtain a division signal. The division signal changes with time as shown in FIG. The maximum value in 10 is subtracted from the minimum value and divided by two, and an intermediate value of the division signals is taken into the equation (4) to obtain the measured curvature of the surface of the object 6 to be measured.
子步驟C5:利用該處理器44根據該等減法信號Diff隨時間的變化來判斷量測的該待測物體6的表面由 該雷射光束形成之路徑的形貌。 Sub-step C5: using the processor 44 to determine, according to the change of the subtraction signal Diff over time, the surface of the object 6 to be measured is measured by The shape of the path formed by the laser beam.
子步驟C5的詳細作法:參閱圖11,當量測的該待測物體6的表面為凹形時,該反射光入射至該位置偵測器3的入射點36的變化,會先鄰近該第二電極35、至該第一、二電極34、35的中點,再鄰近該第一電極34,在本例中,設定該減法信號Diff為該第一電流IX1減該第二電流IX2,則該減法信號Diff的趨勢為先從負值遞增經過零到正值。 Detailed operation of sub-step C5: Referring to FIG. 11, when the surface of the object 6 to be measured is concave, the change of the incident light 36 incident on the position detector 3 will be adjacent to the first a second electrode 35, to a midpoint of the first and second electrodes 34, 35, and then adjacent to the first electrode 34. In this example, the subtraction signal Diff is set to be the first current I X1 minus the second current I X2 Then, the trend of the subtraction signal Diff is first from a negative value to a positive value.
參閱圖12,當量測的該待測物體6的表面為凸形時,該反射光入射至該位置偵測器3的入射點36的變化,會先鄰近該第一電極34、至該第一、二電極34、35的中點,再鄰近該第二電極35,在本例中,設定該減法信號Diff為該第一電流IX1減該第二電流IX2,則該減法信號Diff的趨勢為先從正值遞減經過零到負值。 Referring to FIG. 12, when the surface of the object 6 to be measured is convex, the change of the incident light incident on the position detector 3 will be adjacent to the first electrode 34 to the first The midpoint of the first and second electrodes 34, 35 is adjacent to the second electrode 35. In this example, the subtraction signal Diff is set to the first current I X1 minus the second current I X2 , and the subtraction signal Diff is The trend is first to decrement from positive to zero.
若量測的該待測物體6的表面為水平時,該反射光入射點36的位置會一直在該第一、二電極34、35的中點,則該減法信號Diff一直為零。因此,從該減法信號Diff的變化,就可用以判斷該待測物體6的表面由該雷射光束形成之路徑的形貌。需注意的是,該減法信號Diff的趨勢會隨著該運算單元4設定由該第二電流IX2相減該第一電流IX1或是該第一電流IX1相減該第二電流IX2而改變,且亦會與該平台21乘載該待測物體6移動的方向相關。此外,該除法信號正比於該減法信號Diff,則從該除法信號隨時間變化的趨勢也可以判斷該待測物體6的表面形貌。 If the measured surface of the object 6 to be measured is horizontal, the position of the reflected light incident point 36 will always be at the midpoint of the first and second electrodes 34, 35, and the subtraction signal Diff is always zero. Therefore, the change from the subtraction signal Diff can be used to determine the topography of the path formed by the laser beam on the surface of the object 6 to be measured. It is noted that the trend of the subtraction signal Diff will vary with the computing unit 4 is set by the second current I X2 subtracting the first current of the first current I X1 I X1 or subtracting the second current I X2 The change is also related to the direction in which the platform 21 is loaded by the object 6 to be measured. Further, the division signal is proportional to the subtraction signal Diff, and the surface topography of the object 6 to be measured can also be judged from the tendency of the division signal to change with time.
子步驟C6:參閱圖1,可再利用該處理器44得知該等晶片在磊晶製成時的厚度,以判斷該等晶片在沉積時是否均勻,利用該處理器44對該等減法信號值為零時所對應的加法信號Sum進行取樣以得到多個加法取樣點,並將該等加法取樣點轉換成複數個隨時間的變化的弦波,則開始沉積至結束的晶片的厚度為:
其中,參數d為量測的該晶片的厚度,參數λ為該雷射光束的波長,參數n為形成量測的該晶片的材料的折射係數,m為複數個隨時間變化的弦波數目。 Wherein, the parameter d is the measured thickness of the wafer, the parameter λ is the wavelength of the laser beam, the parameter n is the refractive index of the material of the wafer forming the measurement, and m is the number of sine waves varying with time.
子步驟C6的詳細作法:當該等晶片在沉積的過程中,該多個加法取樣點隨時間的變化在本例中會呈現4.5個弦波,如圖13所示,該處理器44將弦波個數及該雷射光束的波長代入公式(5)處理,即可得到該等晶片分別在沉積時的厚度。 Sub-step C6 is detailed: when the wafers are deposited, the variation of the plurality of additive sampling points over time will exhibit 4.5 chords in this example. As shown in FIG. 13, the processor 44 will chord. The number of waves and the wavelength of the laser beam are substituted into equation (5) to obtain the thickness of the wafers when they are deposited.
