Description

目標氣體含量控制方法和半導體製程設備Target gas content control method and semiconductor process equipment

本申請涉及半導體製程式控制制技術領域,具體涉及一種目標氣體含量控制方法和半導體製程設備。This application relates to the technical field of semiconductor process control, and specifically relates to a target gas content control method and semiconductor process equipment.

裝卸載腔室(LA)的微氧/微正壓控制是半導體製程設備的關鍵性能指標。以立式爐系列設備為例,矽片在傳輸過程中、升降舟(進出反應室)過程中,都會受到裝卸載腔室氣氛中氧分子的影響,導致非必要氧化層的產生,對此,通常需要對裝卸載腔室內的氧氣等目標氣體含量進行控制。比如需要採用高純氮氣(PN2)吹掃手段,並結合氧氣(O2)分析儀和氣體品質流量控制器(MFC)進行閉環控制,來降低和控制裝卸載腔室(LA)中的含氧量,該過程稱為微氧控制。為避免微氧控制過程中裝卸載腔室的壓力變化超出安全範圍,需控制裝卸載腔室中的壓力,確保微氧控制良好情況下微正壓系統的可靠運行。Micro-oxygen/micro-positive pressure control of the loading and unloading chamber (LA) is a key performance indicator of semiconductor process equipment. Taking the vertical furnace series equipment as an example, during the transportation process of silicon wafers and the lifting boat (in and out of the reaction chamber), they will be affected by oxygen molecules in the atmosphere of the loading and unloading chamber, resulting in the generation of unnecessary oxide layers. In this regard, It is usually necessary to control the target gas content such as oxygen in the loading and unloading chamber. For example, it is necessary to use high-purity nitrogen (PN2) purging method, combined with oxygen (O2) analyzer and gas mass flow controller (MFC) for closed-loop control, to reduce and control the oxygen content in the loading and unloading chamber (LA) , this process is called microaerobic control. In order to prevent the pressure change in the loading and unloading chamber from exceeding the safe range during the micro-oxygen control process, it is necessary to control the pressure in the loading and unloading chamber to ensure the reliable operation of the micro-positive pressure system under good micro-oxygen control.

現有控制方案通常採用固定流量的吹掃氣體(例如高純氮氣)吹掃裝卸載腔室,以實現裝卸載腔室內目標氣體含量的控制。例如針對裝卸載腔室內的氧含量,通過一定流量的高純氮氣吹掃裝卸載腔室,以將裝卸載腔室中的氧氣排出,使氧含量達到製程要求,同時保持裝卸載腔室的微正壓;微正壓可以有效阻值外界空氣進入裝卸載腔室,保證氧含量控制效果。但是,上述方案需要採用一定流量的高純氮氣等吹掃氣體進行吹掃,容易造成吹掃氣體過度使用,產生較高的成本。Existing control solutions usually use a fixed flow of purge gas (such as high-purity nitrogen) to purge the loading and unloading chamber to achieve control of the target gas content in the loading and unloading chamber. For example, in view of the oxygen content in the loading and unloading chamber, a certain flow of high-purity nitrogen gas is used to purge the loading and unloading chamber to discharge the oxygen in the loading and unloading chamber, so that the oxygen content meets the process requirements while maintaining the micron temperature of the loading and unloading chamber. Positive pressure; slightly positive pressure can effectively prevent outside air from entering the loading and unloading chamber, ensuring the oxygen content control effect. However, the above solution requires the use of a certain flow rate of purge gas such as high-purity nitrogen, which can easily lead to excessive use of purge gas and result in higher costs.

現有控制方案通常採用固定流量的吹掃氣體(例如高純氮氣)吹掃裝卸載腔室,以實現裝卸載腔室內目標氣體含量的控制。例如針對裝卸載腔室內的氧含量,通常採用遲滯視窗控制模式:大N2流量控氧模式和小N2流量控氧模式,大N2流量控氧模式下,氣體品質流量控制器通常設置為1000slm/min,打開排氣閥,小N2流量控氧模式下,氣體品質流量控制器通常設置為500slm/min,關閉排氣閥;各個模式對應的控氧過程中,通過一定的高純氮氣吹掃裝卸載腔室,將氧氣排出裝卸載腔室,使氧含量達到製程要求,同時保持裝卸載腔室的微正壓;微正壓可以有效阻止外界空氣進入裝卸載腔室,保證氧含量控制效果。上述方案在各種模式下均需要採用一定流量的高純氮氣等吹掃氣體進行吹掃,容易造成吹掃氣體過度使用,產生較高的成本。Existing control solutions usually use a fixed flow of purge gas (such as high-purity nitrogen) to purge the loading and unloading chamber to achieve control of the target gas content in the loading and unloading chamber. For example, for the oxygen content in the loading and unloading chamber, hysteresis window control modes are usually used: large N2 flow oxygen control mode and small N2 flow oxygen control mode. In the large N2 flow oxygen control mode, the gas mass flow controller is usually set to 1000slm/min. , open the exhaust valve, in the small N2 flow oxygen control mode, the gas mass flow controller is usually set to 500slm/min, close the exhaust valve; during the oxygen control process corresponding to each mode, a certain amount of high-purity nitrogen is purged for loading and unloading Chamber, the oxygen is discharged from the loading and unloading chamber, so that the oxygen content meets the process requirements, while maintaining a slight positive pressure in the loading and unloading chamber; the slight positive pressure can effectively prevent outside air from entering the loading and unloading chamber, ensuring the oxygen content control effect. The above solutions require the use of a certain flow rate of purge gas such as high-purity nitrogen in various modes, which can easily lead to excessive use of purge gas and result in higher costs.

以裝卸載腔室的控氧方案為例進一步說明背景技術所述的問題,現有的控氧邏輯可以參考圖1a所示,圖1a中,縱坐標表示裝卸載腔室(LA)氧含量,橫坐標表示時間,曲線表示氧含量和時間的關係:對於①區域,採用大N2流量控氧,從較大的氧含量到微氧含量10ppm變化;對於②區域,由於傳片口打開,片盒或相關腔室的氧氣進入裝卸載腔室,氧含量從小於10ppm到800ppm變化,切換小N2流量控氧;對於③區域,氧含量大於800ppm,切換大N2流量控氧,直到10ppm;對於④區域,氧含量小於等於10ppm,切換小N2流量控氧,氧含量漸漸趨於5ppm左右。其中10ppm是達到製程需求的目標值,800ppm是小N2流量視窗上限值,即裝卸載腔室氧含量從10ppm到800ppm變化,高純氮氣流量是500slm/min;裝卸載腔室氧含量從大於800ppm到10ppm變化,高純氮氣流量是1000slm/min。上述裝卸載腔室的高純氮氣流量方案,採用大N2流量控氧模式和小N2流量控氧模式切換的控制方式,而在裝卸載腔室密封良好的情況下,其氧含量目標值是10ppm;小N2流量控氧模式下500slm/min的高純氮氣會將氧含量吹到5ppm或者更低;如圖1b所示,左縱坐標表示裝卸載腔室的氧含量(單位ppm),右縱坐標表示高純氮氣流量(單位slm),橫坐標表示時間(單位s),虛線表示氧含量隨時間的變化,實線表示高純氮氣流量隨時間的輸出變化,氧含量(虛線)到達10ppm時,高純氮氣流量(實線)由1000slm/min切換為500slm/min並維持不變,氧含量最後維持在3ppm左右。要維持製程需求的10ppm氧含量,實際需要的高純氮氣流量可以小於500slm/min,可見傳統的裝卸載腔室含氧量控制方案這一類目標氣體的含量控制方案容易造成高純氮氣等吹掃氣體過度使用,存在浪費吹掃氣體的問題,使相應成本高。Taking the oxygen control scheme of the loading and unloading chamber as an example to further illustrate the problems described in the background technology, the existing oxygen control logic can be referred to as shown in Figure 1a. In Figure 1a, the ordinate represents the oxygen content of the loading and unloading chamber (LA), and the horizontal axis represents the oxygen content of the loading and unloading chamber (LA). The coordinates represent time, and the curve represents the relationship between oxygen content and time: for area ①, a large N2 flow rate is used to control oxygen, changing from a large oxygen content to a micro-oxygen content of 10ppm; for area ②, because the film transfer port is open, the film cassette or related The oxygen in the chamber enters the loading and unloading chamber, and the oxygen content changes from less than 10ppm to 800ppm. Switch to a small N2 flow rate to control oxygen; for the ③ area, the oxygen content is greater than 800ppm, switch to a large N2 flow rate to control oxygen until 10ppm; for the ④ area, the oxygen If the content is less than or equal to 10ppm, switch to a small N2 flow rate to control oxygen, and the oxygen content will gradually tend to be around 5ppm. Among them, 10ppm is the target value to meet the process requirements, and 800ppm is the upper limit of the small N2 flow window, that is, the oxygen content in the loading and unloading chamber changes from 10ppm to 800ppm, and the high-purity nitrogen flow is 500slm/min; the oxygen content in the loading and unloading chamber changes from greater than 800ppm to 10ppm changes, high purity nitrogen flow is 1000slm/min. The above-mentioned high-purity nitrogen flow scheme for the loading and unloading chamber adopts a control method of switching between a large N2 flow oxygen control mode and a small N2 flow oxygen control mode. When the loading and unloading chamber is well sealed, its oxygen content target value is 10ppm. ; In the small N2 flow oxygen control mode, 500slm/min high-purity nitrogen will blow the oxygen content to 5ppm or lower; as shown in Figure 1b, the left ordinate represents the oxygen content (unit ppm) of the loading and unloading chamber, and the right ordinate represents the oxygen content of the loading and unloading chamber (unit ppm). The coordinates represent the high-purity nitrogen flow rate (unit slm), the abscissa represents time (unit s), the dotted line represents the change of oxygen content over time, the solid line represents the output change of high-purity nitrogen flow rate over time, when the oxygen content (dashed line) reaches 10ppm , the high-purity nitrogen flow rate (solid line) was switched from 1000slm/min to 500slm/min and remained unchanged, and the oxygen content was finally maintained at about 3ppm. To maintain the 10ppm oxygen content required by the process, the actual required high-purity nitrogen flow rate can be less than 500slm/min. It can be seen that the traditional loading and unloading chamber oxygen content control scheme, this type of target gas content control scheme, can easily cause high-purity nitrogen and other purges. Excessive use of gas leads to the problem of wasting purge gas, resulting in high corresponding costs.

針對傳統的目標氣體的含量控制方案容易造成吹掃氣體過度使用的問題,本申請提供一種目標氣體含量控制方法和半導體製程設備,採用模糊控制的方式,其能夠減少控制過程中的吹掃氣體用量,降低目標氣體含量控制方案的成本。In view of the problem that the traditional target gas content control scheme can easily cause excessive use of purge gas, this application provides a target gas content control method and semiconductor process equipment, using fuzzy control, which can reduce the amount of purge gas used in the control process. , reducing the cost of target gas content control solutions.

下面結合附圖,對本申請實施例中的技術方案進行清楚、完整地描述,顯然,所描述的實施例僅是本申請一部分實施例,而非全部實施例。基於本申請中的實施例,本領域技術人員在沒有作出創造性勞動前提下所獲得的所有其他實施例,都屬於本申請保護的範圍。在不衝突的情況下,下述各個實施例及其技術特徵可以相互組合。The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application are clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present application, not all of them. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without making creative efforts fall within the scope of protection of this application. The following embodiments and their technical features may be combined with each other without conflict.

本申請第一方面提供一種目標氣體含量控制方法,用於控制半導體製程設備的裝卸載腔室中目標氣體的含量,參考圖2所示,上述目標氣體含量控制方法包括:The first aspect of the present application provides a target gas content control method for controlling the target gas content in the loading and unloading chamber of semiconductor processing equipment. Referring to Figure 2, the above target gas content control method includes:

S110,獲取裝卸載腔室內目標氣體的目標含量和當前含量之間的含量差值。S110: Obtain the content difference between the target content and the current content of the target gas in the loading and unloading chamber.

上述目標氣體包括氧氣等裝卸載腔室內會影響製程效果的氣體。目標含量為裝卸載腔室內該目標氣體含量的目標值(或者理想值),可以依據相應製程需求設置,比如在一些製程過程中,裝卸載腔室內的目標氧含量為5ppm,在另一些製程過程中,該目標氧含量為10ppm。當前含量為裝卸載腔室處設置的氣體分析儀即時測量得到的目標氣體含量。在當前含量較高時,目標含量和當前含量之間的含量差值為一絕對值較大的負數值;此時若向裝卸載腔室吹入吹掃氣體,目標含量隨著吹掃氣體的吹掃變低,並穩定在目標含量附近或者略小於目標含量的水準,以保證相應製程品質。The above-mentioned target gases include oxygen and other gases in the loading and unloading chamber that will affect the process effect. The target content is the target value (or ideal value) of the target gas content in the loading and unloading chamber, which can be set according to the corresponding process requirements. For example, in some processes, the target oxygen content in the loading and unloading chamber is 5ppm, and in other processes , the target oxygen content is 10ppm. The current content is the target gas content measured in real time by the gas analyzer installed at the loading and unloading chamber. When the current content is high, the content difference between the target content and the current content is a negative value with a large absolute value; at this time, if the purge gas is blown into the loading and unloading chamber, the target content will increase with the purge gas. The purge becomes low and stabilizes at a level near the target content or slightly less than the target content to ensure the corresponding process quality.

S120,將裝卸載腔室的壓力值和含量差值分別映射至對應的模糊論域,根據各個映射結果確定模糊控制參數。S120: Map the pressure value and content difference value of the loading and unloading chamber to the corresponding fuzzy domain respectively, and determine the fuzzy control parameters according to each mapping result.

本申請採用了模糊控制的理論,上述壓力值和含量差值為物理量,各個物理量對應的取值範圍為物理論域,各個物理論域可以依據裝卸載腔室在各種製程中的特徵,並通過相關實驗等分析方式確定。針對各個物理論域,可以依據其範圍、轉換精度和/或所需的控制精度等因素分別設置對應的模糊論域,物理論域的各個物理量通過映射和相應模糊處理等過程可以轉換為對應模糊論域的至少一個模糊量,依據各個模糊量和對應的隸屬度等參數可以計算對應的模糊控制參數。This application adopts the theory of fuzzy control. The above-mentioned pressure value and content difference are physical quantities. The value range corresponding to each physical quantity is a physical theoretical domain. Each physical theoretical domain can be based on the characteristics of the loading and unloading chamber in various processes, and through Relevant experiments and other analysis methods are determined. For each physical theoretical domain, the corresponding fuzzy domain can be set according to factors such as its range, conversion accuracy and/or required control accuracy. Each physical quantity in the physical theoretical domain can be converted into the corresponding fuzzy domain through processes such as mapping and corresponding fuzzy processing. At least one fuzzy quantity in the domain of discussion, the corresponding fuzzy control parameters can be calculated based on each fuzzy quantity and corresponding membership degree and other parameters.

S130,將模糊控制參數轉換至物理論域,得到初始控制參數。S130: Convert the fuzzy control parameters to the physical theoretical domain to obtain initial control parameters.

各個模糊論域上的模糊量通過轉換,可以得到對應物理論域的物理量。上述模糊控制參數所在的模糊論域可以分別依據模糊處理所需的精度預先設定,比如均設為[-2,2]等等。初始控制參數所在的流量範圍這一物理論域可以依據吹掃對應吹掃氣體的流量範圍設置。By converting the fuzzy quantities in each fuzzy domain, the physical quantities corresponding to the physical domain can be obtained. The fuzzy universe in which the above fuzzy control parameters are located can be preset according to the accuracy required for fuzzy processing, such as [-2, 2] and so on. The physical domain of the flow range where the initial control parameters are located can be set according to the flow range of the purge gas corresponding to the purge.

S140,根據初始控制參數控制吹掃入裝卸載腔室的吹掃氣體流量,以控制裝卸載腔室內目標氣體的含量。S140: Control the flow of purge gas purged into the loading and unloading chamber according to the initial control parameters to control the content of the target gas in the loading and unloading chamber.

上述步驟S140中,還可以對初始控制參數進行離散濾波或者平滑濾波等濾波處理,採用濾波得到的結果控制對應的吹掃氣體流量,以使控制參數的變化過程更為平緩,避免目標氣體含量控制過程中出現相關控制參數突變等影響控制效果的狀況,可以提高控制效果。In the above step S140, the initial control parameters can also be filtered by discrete filtering or smoothing filtering, and the filtered results are used to control the corresponding purge gas flow, so as to make the change process of the control parameters smoother and avoid target gas content control. Situations that affect the control effect, such as sudden changes in relevant control parameters during the process, can improve the control effect.

本實施例通過獲取裝卸載腔室內目標氣體的目標含量和當前含量之間的含量差值,將裝卸載腔室的壓力值和含量差值分別映射至對應的模糊論域,根據各個映射結果確定模糊控制參數,將模糊控制參數轉換至物理論域,得到初始控制參數,根據初始控制參數控制吹掃入裝卸載腔室的吹掃氣體流量,以控制裝卸載腔室的目標氣體含量,能夠以當前壓力值和含量差值為依據對裝卸載腔室中的目標氣體進行模糊控制,在保證相應製程品質的基礎上,可以減少所使用的吹掃氣體量,避免過度使用吹掃氣體,從而降低目標氣體含量控制過程中的成本。In this embodiment, by obtaining the content difference between the target content and the current content of the target gas in the loading and unloading chamber, the pressure value and content difference of the loading and unloading chamber are respectively mapped to the corresponding fuzzy domain, and the determination is determined based on each mapping result. Fuzzy control parameters are converted to the physical theory domain to obtain initial control parameters. According to the initial control parameters, the purge gas flow purged into the loading and unloading chamber is controlled to control the target gas content of the loading and unloading chamber. The target gas in the loading and unloading chamber is fuzzy controlled based on the current pressure value and content difference. On the basis of ensuring the quality of the corresponding process, the amount of purge gas used can be reduced and excessive use of purge gas can be avoided, thereby reducing Costs in the target gas content control process.

在一個實施例中,將裝卸載腔室的壓力值和含量差值分別映射至對應的模糊論域,根據各個映射結果確定模糊控制參數包括:In one embodiment, the pressure value and content difference value of the loading and unloading chamber are mapped to the corresponding fuzzy universe respectively, and determining the fuzzy control parameters according to each mapping result includes:

採用第一量化因數基於預設的模糊映射公式將壓力值映射為第一模糊論域的第一映射參數,採用第二量化因數基於預設的上述模糊映射公式將含量差值映射為第二模糊論域的第二映射參數;The first quantization factor is used to map the pressure value to the first mapping parameter of the first fuzzy universe based on the preset fuzzy mapping formula, and the second quantization factor is used to map the content difference to the second fuzzy value based on the preset fuzzy mapping formula.

獲取第一映射參數相對於第一模糊論域各個模糊子集的隸屬度以及第二映射參數相對於第二模糊論域各個模糊子集的隸屬度;Obtain the membership degree of the first mapping parameter with respect to each fuzzy subset of the first fuzzy domain and the membership degree of the second mapping parameter with respect to each fuzzy subset of the second fuzzy domain;

根據第一映射參數、第一映射參數相對於第一模糊論域各個模糊子集的隸屬度、第二映射參數和第二映射參數相對於第二模糊論域各個模糊子集的隸屬度確定模糊控制參數。The fuzzy determination is based on the first mapping parameter, the membership degree of the first mapping parameter with respect to each fuzzy subset of the first fuzzy domain, the second mapping parameter and the membership degree of the second mapping parameter with respect to each fuzzy subset of the second fuzzy domain. control parameters.

上述壓力值和含量差值這些物理量均處於對應的物理論域,各個物理論域具有對應的模糊論域,物理論域與對應的模糊論域之間具有量化因數(如第一量化因數和第二量化因數),其中的各個物理量可以通過量化因數轉換至對應的模糊論域。上述第一映射參數和第二映射參數為相應物理量映射至對應模糊論域的初步映射參數,各個模糊論域的區間範圍越大,對應的轉換精度越高。各個模糊論域可以對應不同的模糊區間,如第一模糊論域的模糊區間可以為[-2,2],第二模糊論域的模糊區間可以為[-3,3];各個模糊論域也可以具有相同的模糊區間,如均設為[-2,2]。The above physical quantities such as pressure value and content difference are in the corresponding physical theory domain. Each physical theory domain has a corresponding fuzzy theory domain. There are quantification factors between the physical theory domain and the corresponding fuzzy theory domain (such as the first quantification factor and the third quantization factor). (two quantization factors), each physical quantity in it can be converted to the corresponding fuzzy domain through the quantization factor. The above-mentioned first mapping parameter and second mapping parameter are preliminary mapping parameters for mapping corresponding physical quantities to corresponding fuzzy domains. The larger the interval range of each fuzzy domain, the higher the corresponding conversion accuracy. Each fuzzy domain can correspond to different fuzzy intervals. For example, the fuzzy interval of the first fuzzy domain can be [-2,2], and the fuzzy interval of the second fuzzy domain can be [-3,3]; each fuzzy domain can It can also have the same fuzzy interval, for example, both are set to [-2,2].

其中各個模糊論域包括多個模糊子集,各個模糊子集具有對應的隸屬度函數,某個映射參數通常屬於多個模糊子集,將映射參數代入對應的隸屬度函數進行計算,可以得到相應映射參數取對應模糊量的隸屬度。參考圖3所示,圖3中目標氣體為氧氣,橫坐標表示映射參數取值,縱坐標表示隸屬度,其示出了壓力值、氧含量差值和模糊控制參數分別對應的模糊論域,這些模糊論域的模糊子集為{NB(負大),NS(負小),ZO(零),PS(正小),PB(正大)},具體取到的模糊量包括:{-2,-1,0,1,2},分別採用三角形隸屬函數。圖3示出的各個模糊論域表明,橫坐標上取到的各個映射參數至少被兩個模糊子集覆蓋。Each fuzzy domain includes multiple fuzzy subsets, and each fuzzy subset has a corresponding membership function. A certain mapping parameter usually belongs to multiple fuzzy subsets. By substituting the mapping parameters into the corresponding membership function for calculation, the corresponding The mapping parameter takes the membership degree of the corresponding fuzzy quantity. Referring to Figure 3, the target gas in Figure 3 is oxygen. The abscissa represents the value of the mapping parameter, and the ordinate represents the degree of membership. It shows the fuzzy universe corresponding to the pressure value, oxygen content difference and fuzzy control parameters respectively. The fuzzy subsets of these fuzzy domains are {NB (negative large), NS (negative small), ZO (zero), PS (positive small), PB (positive large)}. The specific fuzzy quantities include: {-2 , -1, 0, 1, 2}, using triangular membership functions respectively. Each fuzzy domain shown in Figure 3 shows that each mapping parameter taken on the abscissa is covered by at least two fuzzy subsets.

本實施例可以結合裝卸載腔室的實際特點,確定推理規則,進而確定對應的模糊處理規則,以分別對第一映射參數、第二映射參數和對應的隸屬度進行模糊處理得到所需的模糊控制參數。這裡以裝卸載腔室內的氧含量控制過程進行說明,其推理規則可以包括:1、裝卸載腔室壓力很小,氧含量很大,高純氮氣流量就很大;2、裝卸載腔室壓力略小,氧含量略大,高純氮氣流量就略大;3、裝卸載腔室壓力適中,氧含量適中,高純氮氣流量就適中;4、裝卸載腔室壓力略大,氧含量略小,高純氮氣流量就略小;5、裝卸載腔室壓力很大,氧含量很小,高純氮氣流量就很小。對應的模糊處理規則包括:確定第一映射參數對應的各個第一模糊量與第二映射參數對應的各個第二模糊量,確定多組包括一個第一模糊量和一個第二模糊量的模糊量,採用推理公式針對各組模糊量進行計算得到各個初始模糊參數,確定各個初始模糊參數的隸屬度,根據各個隸屬度對各個初始模糊參數進行清晰化處理,以確定模糊控制參數。This embodiment can combine the actual characteristics of the loading and unloading chamber to determine the inference rules, and then determine the corresponding fuzzy processing rules, so as to perform fuzzy processing on the first mapping parameters, the second mapping parameters and the corresponding membership degrees to obtain the required fuzzy processing. control parameters. The oxygen content control process in the loading and unloading chamber is explained here. The reasoning rules can include: 1. The pressure of the loading and unloading chamber is very small, and the oxygen content is large, so the flow rate of high-purity nitrogen is very large; 2. The pressure of the loading and unloading chamber Slightly smaller, the oxygen content is slightly larger, and the high-purity nitrogen flow rate is slightly larger; 3. The loading and unloading chamber pressure is moderate, the oxygen content is moderate, and the high-purity nitrogen flow rate is moderate; 4. The loading and unloading chamber pressure is slightly larger, and the oxygen content is slightly smaller , the flow rate of high-purity nitrogen is slightly smaller; 5. The pressure in the loading and unloading chamber is very high, and the oxygen content is very small, so the flow rate of high-purity nitrogen is very small. The corresponding fuzzy processing rules include: determining each first fuzzy quantity corresponding to the first mapping parameter and each second fuzzy quantity corresponding to the second mapping parameter, and determining multiple sets of fuzzy quantities including one first fuzzy quantity and one second fuzzy quantity. , use the inference formula to calculate each group of fuzzy quantities to obtain each initial fuzzy parameter, determine the membership degree of each initial fuzzy parameter, and clarify each initial fuzzy parameter according to each membership degree to determine the fuzzy control parameters.

The membership degree determines the fuzzy control parameters including:

將各個第一模糊量和各個第二模糊量組合為多組模糊量,對各組模糊量進行加權求和後取整,得到各個初始模糊參數;Combining each first fuzzy quantity and each second fuzzy quantity into multiple groups of fuzzy quantities, performing weighted summation of each group of fuzzy quantities and then rounding to obtain each initial fuzzy parameter;

將各組模糊量對應的最小隸屬度確定為對應初始模糊參數的隸屬度,根據各個初始模糊參數和各個初始模糊參數對應的隸屬度確定模糊控制參數。The minimum membership degree corresponding to each group of fuzzy quantities is determined as the membership degree corresponding to the initial fuzzy parameter, and the fuzzy control parameters are determined based on each initial fuzzy parameter and the membership degree corresponding to each initial fuzzy parameter.

第一模糊論域和第二模糊論域的模糊子集可以參考圖3所示,各個模糊子集表徵對應的模糊量,並具有對應的隸屬度函數,如模糊子集NB表徵的模糊量為-2,模糊子集NS表徵的模糊量為-1,模糊子集ZO表徵的模糊量為0,模糊子集PS表徵的模糊量為1,模糊子集PB表徵的模糊量為2。以裝卸載腔室壓力值對應的第一映射參數0.6為例對上述過程進行說明,根據圖3中壓力值的模糊子集分佈圖,0.6對應的第一模糊量為0(模糊子集ZO)和1(模糊子集PS);模糊子集ZO和模糊子集PS的隸屬函數如下:The fuzzy subsets of the first fuzzy domain and the second fuzzy domain can be shown in Figure 3. Each fuzzy subset represents the corresponding fuzzy quantity and has a corresponding membership function. For example, the fuzzy quantity represented by the fuzzy subset NB is: -2, the fuzzy quantity represented by the fuzzy subset NS is -1, the fuzzy quantity represented by the fuzzy subset ZO is 0, the fuzzy quantity represented by the fuzzy subset PS is 1, and the fuzzy quantity represented by the fuzzy subset PB is 2. Taking the first mapping parameter 0.6 corresponding to the pressure value of the loading and unloading chamber as an example to illustrate the above process, according to the fuzzy subset distribution diagram of the pressure value in Figure 3, the first fuzzy amount corresponding to 0.6 is 0 (fuzzy subset ZO) and 1 (fuzzy subset PS); the membership functions of fuzzy subset ZO and fuzzy subset PS are as follows:

The positive and negative signs are the same as The positive and negative signs in are the same, for example, <-1.3>=-1, <1.7>=2. The above-mentioned first mapping parameters correspond to multiple first blur quantities, and the second mapping parameters correspond to multiple second blur quantities. By combining each first blur quantity and each second blur quantity, multiple sets of non-overlapping blur quantities can be obtained. By performing weighted summation of each group of fuzzy quantities and then rounding, the initial fuzzy parameters and the membership degrees corresponding to each initial fuzzy parameter can be obtained; for example, in a certain group of fuzzy quantities, the first fuzzy quantity is 0, its membership degree is 0.4, and the second fuzzy quantity is 1, its membership degree is 0.8, and the first weight is 0.5, and the corresponding initial fuzzy parameter is , its membership degree is 0.4.

本示例中,根據各個初始模糊參數和對應的隸屬度確定模糊控制參數為清晰化處理過程,其中各個初始模糊參數屬於模糊量,需要將這些模糊量轉化為具體的模糊控制參數,再將模糊控制參數轉換為物理量(如初始控制參數),並發送至控制機構進行控制。可選地,此過程可以採用最大隸屬度平均值法進行清晰化處理,以確定模糊控制參數,在滿足實際控制需求的基礎上,能夠減小計算量小,使輸出穩定,解決頻繁控制的問題。其中最大隸屬度平均值法進行清晰化處理的過程包括:在各個初始模糊參數中選擇隸屬度最大的初始模糊參數作為選定模糊參數,獲取該選定模糊參數所在模糊子集的選定隸屬度函數,以最大的隸屬度作為選定隸屬度函數的函數值,求得多個模糊變數值,將各個模糊變數值的平均值作為模糊控制參數。下面以根據兩個初始模糊參數確定對應模糊控制參數為例對上述清晰化處理過程進行說明:初始模糊參數A為0,對應的隸屬度為0.6,初始模糊參數B為1,對應的隸屬度為0.4,以隸屬度為0.6的初始模糊參數A為選定隸屬度函數,再根據圖3中模糊控制參數的模糊子集分佈圖,模糊量為0即模糊子集ZO,令ZO模糊子集的隸屬函數的函數值為0.6,即:In this example, determining the fuzzy control parameters based on each initial fuzzy parameter and the corresponding degree of membership is a clarifying process. Each initial fuzzy parameter belongs to a fuzzy quantity. These fuzzy quantities need to be converted into specific fuzzy control parameters, and then the fuzzy control The parameters are converted into physical quantities (such as initial control parameters) and sent to the control mechanism for control. Optionally, this process can be clarified using the maximum membership average method to determine the fuzzy control parameters. On the basis of meeting the actual control requirements, it can reduce the amount of calculation, stabilize the output, and solve the problem of frequent control. . The process of clarifying by the maximum membership average method includes: selecting the initial fuzzy parameter with the largest membership among the various initial fuzzy parameters as the selected fuzzy parameter, and obtaining the selected membership function of the fuzzy subset where the selected fuzzy parameter is located, so as to The maximum membership degree is used as the function value of the selected membership function, multiple fuzzy variable values are obtained, and the average value of each fuzzy variable value is used as the fuzzy control parameter. The following is an example of determining the corresponding fuzzy control parameters based on two initial fuzzy parameters to illustrate the above clarifying process: the initial fuzzy parameter A is 0, the corresponding membership degree is 0.6, the initial fuzzy parameter B is 1, and the corresponding membership degree is 0.4, taking the initial fuzzy parameter A with a membership degree of 0.6 as the selected membership function, and then according to the fuzzy subset distribution diagram of the fuzzy control parameters in Figure 3, the fuzzy quantity is 0, which is the fuzzy subset ZO. Let the membership of the ZO fuzzy subset The function value of the function is 0.6, which is:

求解得到兩個模糊變數值, ,這兩個模糊變數值平均值所確定的第一模糊控制參數為0。進一步地,可以採用對應的比例因數將模糊控制參數轉換至物理論域,得到初始控制參數;比如,某比例因數為 ,吹掃氣體流量的物理論域的上限 為1000,下限 為600,模糊控制參數 為0,則對應的初始控制參數可以為: Solving to get two fuzzy variable values, , , the first fuzzy control parameter determined by the average value of these two fuzzy variables is 0. Furthermore, the corresponding scaling factor can be used to convert the fuzzy control parameters into the physical theoretical domain to obtain the initial control parameters; for example, a certain scaling factor is , the upper limit of the physical domain of the purge gas flow rate is 1000, the lower limit is 600, fuzzy control parameters is 0, then the corresponding initial control parameters can be:

可選地,上述含量差值的物理論域包括至少兩個子物理論域;上述採用預設的量化因數計算式計算含量差值的物理論域和第二模糊論域之間的量化因數作為第二量化因數,包括:確定含量差值所屬的子物理論域,採用預設的量化因數計算式計算該子物理論域和第二模糊論域之間的量化因數作為第二量化因數。這裡可以依據不同含量差值對應的目標氣體含量控制需求將含量差值的整個物理論域劃分為多段,各段分別為一個子物理論域,以在獲得含量差值之後,識別該含量差值所處的子物理論域,將含量差值從該子物理論域映射至對應的第二模糊論域,實現各個子物理論域上含量差值的差別轉換,從而滿足各個子物理論域所需的目標氣體含量控制需求。Optionally, the physical domain of the content difference includes at least two sub-physical domains; the quantification factor between the physical domain of the content difference and the second fuzzy domain is calculated using a preset quantification factor calculation formula as The second quantification factor includes: determining the sub-physical theory domain to which the content difference belongs, and using a preset quantification factor calculation formula to calculate the quantization factor between the sub-physics theory domain and the second fuzzy theory domain as the second quantification factor. Here, the entire physical theoretical domain of the content difference can be divided into multiple segments according to the target gas content control requirements corresponding to different content differences. Each segment is a sub-physical theoretical domain, so that after the content difference is obtained, the content difference can be identified. The sub-physics theory domain in which it is located maps the content difference from the sub-physics theory domain to the corresponding second fuzzy theory domain, realizing the differential conversion of the content difference in each sub-physics theory domain, thereby satisfying the requirements of each sub-physics theory domain. The required target gas content control needs.

優選地,處於差別控制的考慮,各個子物理論域還可以擁有各自的第二模糊論域,即不同的子物理論域對應不同的第二模糊論域,由此可以進一步實現精細化的控制。相應地,上述採用預設的量化因數計算式計算該子物理論域和第二模糊論域之間的量化因數作為第二量化因數,包括:採用預設的量化因數計算式計算該子物理論域和該子物理論域對應的第二模糊論域之間的量化因數作為第二量化因數。Preferably, for the purpose of differential control, each sub-physics domain can also have its own second fuzzy domain, that is, different sub-physics domains correspond to different second fuzzy domains, thereby further achieving refined control. .

The quantization factor between the domain and the second fuzzy domain corresponding to the sub-physical theory domain is used as the second quantization factor.

在一些情況下,若目標氣體在裝卸載腔室所包括氣體中占比相對較小,目標氣體的目標含量和當前含量之間的含量差值變化對裝卸載腔室內壓力值的取值範圍沒有影響或者影響很小時,含量差值的各個子物理論域可以對應同一個壓力值的物理論域,以採用該壓力值的物理論域和對應的第一模糊論域進行壓力值模糊處理,提高模糊處理效率,從而提高目標氣體含量控制效率。In some cases, if the target gas accounts for a relatively small proportion of the gas included in the loading and unloading chamber, the change in the content difference between the target content and the current content of the target gas has no impact on the range of the pressure value in the loading and unloading chamber. When the influence or influence is very small, each sub-physical theory domain of the content difference can correspond to the physical theory domain of the same pressure value, so that the pressure value fuzzy processing can be performed using the physical theory domain of the pressure value and the corresponding first fuzzy theory domain to improve Fuzzy processing efficiency, thereby improving target gas content control efficiency.

在另一些情況下,若目標氣體在裝卸載腔室所包括氣體中占比相對較大,目標氣體的目標含量和當前含量之間的含量差值變化對裝卸載腔室內壓力值的取值範圍存在一定影響時,壓力值的物理論域也可以被劃分為多個子物理論域,各個壓力值的子物理論域也可以分別具有對應的第一模糊論域,以提高映射精度和相應模糊處理過程的精度,從而提高目標氣體含量控制效果。此時上述採用預設的量化因數計算式計算壓力值的物理論域和第一模糊論域之間的量化因數作為第一量化因數,可以包括:確定壓力值所屬的子物理論域,採用預設的量化因數計算式計算該子物理論域和該子物理論域對應的第一模糊論域之間的量化因數作為第一量化因數。In other cases, if the target gas accounts for a relatively large proportion of the gas included in the loading and unloading chamber, the change in the content difference between the target content and the current content of the target gas will affect the range of the pressure value in the loading and unloading chamber. When there is a certain influence, the physical theoretical domain of the pressure value can also be divided into multiple sub-physical theoretical domains. Each sub-physical theoretical domain of the pressure value can also have a corresponding first fuzzy domain to improve the mapping accuracy and corresponding fuzzy processing. process accuracy, thereby improving the target gas content control effect. At this time, the above-mentioned calculation of the quantification factor between the physical theory domain of the pressure value and the first fuzzy theory domain using the preset quantification factor calculation formula as the first quantification factor may include: determining the sub-physical theory domain to which the pressure value belongs, using the preset Set the quantization factor calculation formula to calculate the quantization factor between the sub-physics domain and the first fuzzy domain corresponding to the sub-physics domain as the first quantization factor.

為了使目標氣體含量的控制過程更加平滑,在一個示例中,上述目標氣體含量控制可以分為2段,此時含量差值的物理論域包括2個子物理論域,這兩個子物理論域通過分段閾值確定,即一個子物理論域的上限為該分段閾值,另一個子物理論域的下限為該分段閾值。此時可以依據當前的含量差值與分段閾值之間的關係選擇對應的子物理論域和第二模糊論域進行映射,得到當前含量差值對應的模糊控制參數,採用該模糊控制參數獲得對應的初始控制參數控制吹掃入裝卸載腔室的吹掃氣體流量。這樣整個目標氣體控制過程以含量差值為基礎分為2段進行模糊控制,在提高控制效果的基礎上,還具有較高的控制效率。上述分段閾值可以依據目標含量和相應控制精度設置,比如針對裝卸載腔室的氧含量調節過程,可以將分段閾值設置為-5ppm等值。在一些情況下,含量差值小於分段閾值,表徵裝卸載腔內目標氣體含量高,可以採用控制精度相對低的粗調模式控制吹掃氣體流量,以使裝卸載腔內目標氣體含量快速降低至接近目標含量,保證控制效率;含量差值大於或等於分段閾值,表徵裝卸載腔室內目標氣體含量已降低至接近目標含量,此時可以採用控制精度相對高的精調模式控制吹掃氣體流量,以使卸載腔室的氧含量進一步達到目標含量,並保持在該水準,保證控制精度。In order to make the control process of the target gas content smoother, in one example, the above target gas content control can be divided into two stages. At this time, the physical theoretical domain of the content difference includes two sub-physical theoretical domains. These two sub-physical theoretical domains It is determined by the segmentation threshold, that is, the upper limit of one sub-physics domain is the segmentation threshold, and the lower limit of the other sub-physics domain is the segmentation threshold. At this time, the corresponding sub-physics domain and the second fuzzy domain can be selected for mapping based on the relationship between the current content difference and the segmentation threshold, to obtain the fuzzy control parameters corresponding to the current content difference, and use the fuzzy control parameters to obtain The corresponding initial control parameters control the purge gas flow rate purged into the loading and unloading chamber. In this way, the entire target gas control process is divided into two stages for fuzzy control based on the content difference. On the basis of improving the control effect, it also has high control efficiency. The above-mentioned segmentation threshold can be set according to the target content and corresponding control accuracy. For example, for the oxygen content adjustment process of the loading and unloading chamber, the segmentation threshold can be set to a value such as -5ppm. In some cases, the content difference is less than the segmentation threshold, which indicates that the target gas content in the loading and unloading chamber is high. The coarse adjustment mode with relatively low control accuracy can be used to control the purge gas flow to quickly reduce the target gas content in the loading and unloading chamber. to close to the target content to ensure control efficiency; the content difference is greater than or equal to the segmentation threshold, indicating that the target gas content in the loading and unloading chamber has been reduced to close to the target content. At this time, the purge gas can be controlled in a fine-tuning mode with relatively high control accuracy. flow, so that the oxygen content in the unloading chamber further reaches the target content and is maintained at this level to ensure control accuracy.

As shown in Figure 4, a differential pressure meter is used to measure the loading and unloading chamber. The current pressure value of the chamber. The oxygen analyzer is used to measure the current content of oxygen in the loading and unloading chamber. When the content difference between the target content and the current content is less than the segmentation threshold, the control selector will use the segmentation threshold as the upper limit. The control parameters such as quantization factors corresponding to the sub-physical theoretical domain are uploaded to the fuzzy controller, so that the fuzzy controller uses the corresponding first physical theoretical domain, first fuzzy domain, sub-physical theoretical domain and second fuzzy domain to calculate the current pressure value. Convert with the current content difference to obtain the corresponding fuzzy control parameters; when the content difference is greater than or equal to the segmentation threshold, the control selector will upload control parameters such as quantization factors corresponding to the sub-physical theory domain with the segmentation threshold as the lower limit to The fuzzy controller uses the corresponding first physical theory domain, the first fuzzy theory domain, the sub-physical theory domain and the second fuzzy theory domain to convert the current pressure value and the current content difference to obtain the corresponding fuzzy control parameters. ; In this way, the fuzzy controller can convert the above fuzzy control parameters to the corresponding physical theoretical domain and obtain the initial control parameters. The discrete filter filters the initial control parameters to obtain the corresponding flow control parameters, so that the gas mass flow controller uses the corresponding flow control parameters to control the flow of high-purity nitrogen purged to the loading and unloading chamber to control the flow of the unloading chamber. oxygen content. Simulate and analyze the high-purity nitrogen flow control process provided in this example. When preparing to start the process, the oxygen content in the loading and unloading chamber needs to be controlled at the target content. According to the control method provided in this example, the oxygen content changes as shown in Figure 5. . The left ordinate represents oxygen content (unit ppm), the right ordinate represents high-purity nitrogen flow (unit slm), the abscissa represents time (unit s), the dotted line represents the change of oxygen content over time, and the solid line represents high-purity nitrogen flow output changes. The target content in Figure 5 is 11ppm. After reaching the target content, the oxygen content is maintained at 11±1ppm. Through fuzzy control, the final high-purity nitrogen flow rate is stabilized at 310 slm/min. Compared with the traditional solution of 500 slm/min in the small N2 flow mode, the high-purity nitrogen flow rate is saved by 190 slm/min. The point after point a in the figure is this implementation. The example corresponds to the fuzzy control process. It can be seen that this example can effectively save the high-purity nitrogen used in the control process.
