Description

用於檢測電子元件中的內部缺陷的裝置和方法 Apparatus and method for detecting internal defects in electronic components

本發明涉及一種用於檢測電子元件中的內部缺陷的裝置和方法,該裝置和方法包括:面向所述電子元件的第一表面的成像單元,其中所述第一表面包括所述電子元件的凸出側;至少一個紅外線光源,其能夠照亮由雷射開槽製程引起的內部缺陷,例如所述電子元件的微裂紋或內部裂紋;所述紅外線光源和所述電子元件相對於它們各自的水平面傾斜0°至90°的角度。 The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for detecting internal defects in an electronic component, the apparatus and method comprising: an imaging unit facing a first surface of the electronic component, wherein the first surface comprises convex surfaces of the electronic component exit side; at least one infrared light source capable of illuminating internal defects caused by the laser grooving process, such as micro-cracks or internal cracks of the electronic component; the infrared light source and the electronic component with respect to their respective horizontal planes Tilt at an angle of 0° to 90°.

晶圓切割是任何半導體積體電路(IC)生產基地的重要製程,它是將單個半導體晶粒與晶圓分開的切割製程,因此可以透過機械切割製程或雷射開槽製程來完成該切割製程。眾所周知,與使用刀片的傳統機械鋸切製程相比,雷射開槽技術是最先進的技術。儘管如此,雷射開槽製程會引起半導體晶粒的微裂紋或內部裂紋,並導致低產能。半導體晶粒的側壁紅外線(IR)檢查無法檢查由雷射開槽引起的內部缺陷,而紅外線表面檢查將難以識別背景和缺陷之間的灰度差值。 Wafer dicing is an important process for any semiconductor integrated circuit (IC) production base, it is a dicing process that separates individual semiconductor dies from wafers, so the dicing process can be done by either a mechanical dicing process or a laser grooving process . Laser grooving is known to be the most advanced technology compared to traditional mechanical sawing processes using blades. Nonetheless, the laser grooving process can cause micro-cracks or internal cracks in the semiconductor die and result in low yields. Sidewall infrared (IR) inspection of semiconductor dies cannot detect internal defects caused by laser grooving, while infrared surface inspection will have difficulty identifying grayscale differences between background and defects.

Kvung Beom Kim於KR101234603B1公開了一種使用拉曼散射進行表面缺陷檢查的裝置。被檢體表面缺陷的檢查裝置包括:被檢體安裝於其上的安放部;一光源單元,其投射拉曼雷射光至被檢體;一光檢測 器,用於檢測被檢體散射的散射光;以及用以判斷是否存在缺陷以及缺陷的類型的一缺陷判斷單元,其電性連接到光檢測器,並從檢測到的散射光測量拉曼光譜和拉曼位移量,並將測得的拉曼位移量與為每種缺陷類型預先設定的多個判斷缺陷的拉曼位移量進行比較。此發明還提供一種使用拉曼散射檢查樣本表面缺陷的方法。但是,KR101234603B1存在一些限制,因為它僅用於表面缺陷檢查,並且不能檢測半導體器件內部缺陷的存在與否。 Kvung Beom Kim disclosed an apparatus for surface defect inspection using Raman scattering in KR101234603B1. An inspection device for surface defects of an object to be inspected includes: a mounting portion on which the object to be inspected is mounted; a light source unit that projects Raman laser light to the object to be inspected; a light detection a detector for detecting scattered light scattered by the object to be inspected; and a defect judgment unit for judging whether a defect exists and the type of the defect, which is electrically connected to the photodetector and measures the Raman spectrum from the detected scattered light and Raman shifts, and compare the measured Raman shifts with the Raman shifts of multiple judgment defects preset for each defect type. The invention also provides a method of inspecting surface defects of a sample using Raman scattering. However, KR101234603B1 has some limitations as it is only used for surface defect inspection and cannot detect the presence or absence of internal defects in semiconductor devices.

除了KR101234603B1以外,Wack等人於US6818459B2中公開了一種判斷宏觀缺陷是否存在的方法和系統。該系統可以包括被配置為支撐樣本並耦合到測量裝置的一平臺。該測量裝置可以包括一照明系統和一檢測系統。該照明系統和該檢測系統可以被配置為使得系統可以被配置為判斷樣本的多種特性。例如,該系統可以被配置為判斷樣本的多種性質,包括但不限於樣本的宏觀缺陷和覆蓋物的存在。以這種方式,測量裝置可以執行多種光學和/或非光學計量和/或檢查技術。該方法遇到了與KR101234603B1一樣的一些缺點,因為該系統和方法用於確定宏觀缺陷的存在,但不包含內部缺陷(例如微裂紋)。 In addition to KR101234603B1, Wack et al in US6818459B2 disclose a method and system for judging the presence or absence of macroscopic defects. The system can include a platform configured to support the sample and coupled to the measurement device. The measuring device may include an illumination system and a detection system. The illumination system and the detection system can be configured such that the system can be configured to determine various characteristics of the sample. For example, the system can be configured to determine a variety of properties of the sample, including but not limited to macroscopic defects and the presence of coverings in the sample. In this way, the measurement device can perform a variety of optical and/or non-optical metrology and/or inspection techniques. This method suffers from some of the same drawbacks as KR101234603B1 because the system and method are used to determine the presence of macroscopic defects, but not internal defects (eg, microcracks).

因此,有利的是,透過具有用於檢測電子元件的內部缺陷(諸如微裂紋或內部裂紋)的裝置和方法來減輕缺點,該裝置和方法透過以不同角度的紅外線燈光投射,以及以不同角度的照相機位置朝向該電子元件,來檢測該電子元件,從而至少一個紅外線光源和該電子元件相對於它們各自的水平面傾斜到0°至90°的角度。 Therefore, it would be advantageous to alleviate the disadvantages by having an apparatus and method for detecting internal defects in electronic components, such as micro-cracks or internal cracks, which transmits infrared light at different angles, and at different angles The camera is positioned towards the electronic component to detect the electronic component so that the at least one infrared light source and the electronic component are inclined to an angle of 0° to 90° with respect to their respective horizontal planes.

因此,本發明的主要目的是提供一種,透過以不同角度的紅外線燈光投射以及不同角度的攝像頭位置朝向電子元件,來實現用於檢測電子元件中的微裂紋或內部裂紋內部缺陷的裝置和方法。 Therefore, the main purpose of the present invention is to provide a device and method for detecting micro-cracks or internal cracks in electronic components by projecting infrared light at different angles and facing the electronic components with different angles of camera positions.
