Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device and a method for regulating the temperature of a substrate, and to a method for producing such a device.
  • a substrate holding device in particular for testing circuit arrangements on wafer-type substrates is known from DE 101 22 036 A1.
  • the device described therein has a surface for receiving a substrate to be tested and is formed as an integral ceramic body having layers doped to different extents.
  • the device can be configured with a doped layer region within the ceramic body which serves as heating. It is thus possible to measure the substrate at relatively high temperatures. Cooling of the substrate is not provided in said device.
  • the holding device has to be combined with a conventional thermochuck.
  • a substrate holding device known from U.S. Pat. No. 5,610,529 B also has electrical cooling elements.
  • Such electrical heating and cooling elements always also cause electrical interference signals which can influence electrical measurements on the substrate whose temperature is to be regulated.
  • the construction has a layer system composed of electrically conductive and insulating regions between a substrate support area and the heating and cooling elements.
  • a cooling in a substrate holding device in which such electrical interference effects are avoided is known from U.S. Pat. No. 6,188,563 B1, which discloses a holding device comprising a ceramic body, in which are formed cooling channels through which a cooling fluid can be conducted, said cooling fluid bringing about a cooling of the substrate.
  • a configuration of said cooling channels in the ceramic body which leads to a homogeneous temperature distribution is difficult, however.
  • a homogeneous temperature distribution which can, moreover, also be controlled in a wide temperature range is particularly important, however, for many applications.
  • the present invention provides a device for regulating the temperature of a substrate comprising:
  • the device according to the invention therefore provides an integral device for regulating the temperature of a substrate by means of a temperature-regulating fluid which can be introduced into the cavity of the device or passed out from the cavity via the connection opening.
  • a temperature-regulating fluid which can be introduced into the cavity of the device or passed out from the cavity via the connection opening.
  • the two-part construction of the device enables diverse configurations—adapted to the respective application—of the cavity that is arranged between the two partial elements or is provided at or by the interface.
  • a homogeneous temperature distribution and also a good thermal coupling of the temperature-regulating fluid to the device are made possible as a result.
  • the use of ceramic material increases the thermal stability.
  • the two partial elements essentially comprise ceramic material, that is to say that they comprise at least one ceramic core or an element body on ceramic material (e.g. aluminum oxide or aluminum nitride) which forms the major constituent or the main constituent of the partial elements.
  • the main constituent represents the essentially shaping part of the partial elements.
  • the device in addition to the first connection opening at least one second connection opening is provided via which a fluid outflow and/or inflow from and/or to the at least one cavity is made possible.
  • the cavity preferably forms at least one continuous channel between the first and the second connection opening. This enables a continuous through-flow of the temperature-regulating fluid, wherein one connection opening serves as inflow and the other as outflow for the fluid.
  • the open-loop or closed-loop control of the substrate temperature is thereby facilitated by means of an open-loop or closed-loop control of the temperature and/or a quantity or flow rate of the flowing fluid.
  • the at least one continuous channel runs essentially in meandering fashion, that is to say that it preferably has loops in which it essentially reverses its course locally. This improves the thermal coupling of the temperature-regulating fluid to the device, on the one hand, and the homogeneity of the temperature distribution, on the other hand.
  • the continuous channel is further preferably arranged in such a way that a fluid throughflow from the first connection opening through the channel to the second connection opening takes place essentially on the basis of the countercurrent principle.
  • the channel is thus arranged in such a way that, at least with respect to a first section of the channel, a second section of the channel exists which runs essentially parallel and is adjacent to said first section, wherein the fluid flows in approximately opposite directions in the two channel sections.
  • This has the effect that a temperature gradient that forms in the flow direction of the fluid on account of the energy transfer between fluid and device in the first channel section opposes an approximately opposite temperature gradient on account of the opposite flow direction in the adjacent second channel section.
  • An improved temperature homogeneity is thus achieved at the bearing area for the substrate.
  • it is particularly preferred if two connection openings of the same channel are already adjacent and the channel sections run essentially parallel to one another in meandering fashion from the connection openings through the entire device.
  • ribs are formed in the channel, the longitudinal direction of said ribs running essentially in the direction of the channel. This brings about a large surface area in the channel region and hence a good thermal coupling of the temperature-regulating fluid to the device.
  • each case at least one cutout is provided in both partial elements, which cutouts together form the at least one cavity.
  • the connecting areas lie essentially in a connecting plane, wherein the cutouts are formed in the two partial elements symmetrically with respect to the connecting plane.
  • a symmetrical configuration of the two partial elements is particularly advantageous for the production of ceramic partial elements since an adaptation of the partial elements to one another is largely maintained even after a possible shrinkage of the partial elements during the firing of the ceramic.
  • a symmetrical configuration of the partial elements brings about an essentially identical thermal expansion behavior.
  • the partial elements are connected to one another in fluid-tight fashion at the connecting areas in such a way that a fluid can emerge from the cavity essentially only via the at least one connection opening.
  • a connecting layer is arranged at least at one of the two connecting areas.
  • Said connecting layer facilitates, inter alia, the sealing of the connecting areas and/or the adhesion of the partial elements to one another.
  • the at least one connecting layer is configured at least in part as an electrically conductive layer preferably comprising nickel or copper. Electrical interference signals can be shielded by this electrically conductive layer, which is desirable particularly for electrical measurements on the substrate whose temperature is to be regulated. It is most preferred if, for this purpose, the conductive connecting layer projects beyond the connecting area in order to form an electrical connection contact which is accessible in particular from outside the device.
  • an electrically conductive first shielding layer is arranged at least partly or in regions at the bearing area of the first partial element.
  • Said first shielding layer enables the shielding of electrical interference signals in addition or as an alternative to an electrically conductive connecting layer.
  • it could also be electrically conductively connectable to the substrate in order thus to bring the substrate to a specific electrical potential.
  • said first shielding layer has at least one electrical connection contact.
  • the second partial element additionally has an outer area or mounting area at which an electrically conductive second shielding layer is arranged at least in regions.
  • said outer area or mounting area is an area which is remote from the connecting area and plane-parallel thereto.
  • the second shielding layer could bring about a shielding from electrical interference signals and preferably have an electrical connection contact.
  • the simultaneous configuration of the temperature-regulating device with the electrically conductive connecting layer and the first and second electrically conductive shielding layer is particularly preferred. It is thus advantageously possible to bring about a triax connection of the three layers, wherein the first shielding layer is or can be connected to force potential, the electrically conductive connecting layer is or can be connected to guard potential and the second shielding layer is or can be connected to shield or ground potential. This brings about a particularly good shielding from electrical interference signals and thus permits highly sensitive noise-free electrical measurements on the substrate.
  • an integrated heating element is arranged and/or an external heating element can be fitted at the outer area or mounting area of the second partial element.
  • a cooling fluid with a heating element, a rapid and advantageously precise closed-loop or open-loop control of temperature is possible.
  • the device can be used with conventional thermochucks or hot plates.
  • the first partial element is preferably configured in a cylindrical fashion, wherein the first connecting area and the bearing area form plane-parallel base areas.
  • the present invention provides a method for producing a device for regulating the temperature of a substrate comprising the following steps in this order:
  • the production according to the invention of a device for regulating the temperature of a substrate composed of two partial elements simplifies the configuration of the at least one cutout that forms the cavity after the connection of the partial elements, whereby a particularly individual cavity configuration adapted to the problem can be performed.
  • the use of ceramic material increases the thermal stability or enables higher temperatures and/or leads to a higher strength.
  • step (c) of connecting the two partial elements comprises a step of brazing.
  • step (a) of providing the first and second partial element comprises a step of forming the first and/or second partial element as a first and/or a second green blank composed of ceramic material.
  • a green blank composed of ceramic raw material which preferably comprises a ceramic powder mixture is produced in a form determined by the desired final form of the first and/or second partial element taking account of the dimensional change arising in the subsequent method steps. Consequently, preferably a first and/or a second green blank having a first or a second connecting area is produced.
  • the method additionally comprises a step of firing the first and/or second green blank.
  • a (preferably very much) harder first and/or second partial element arises from the preferably relatively readily deformable green blank.
  • This is preferably done by means of a sintering process which the firing step preferably comprises and in which mechanically stronger ceramic material arises from a low-strength ceramic raw material at high temperatures.
  • step (b) of forming the at least one cutout is effected before the step of firing the corresponding partial element in which the cutout is formed.
  • a mechanical processing of the corresponding partial element can be carried out more easily in the non-fired state, that is to say in the green state, than in the fired, that is to say hardened, state.
  • a post-processing is effected after firing in order to carry out corrections in particular of faults produced by deformation of the partial element during firing.
  • such partial elements shrink by 20% to 30% from the green state to the fired state. This shrinkage can possibly take place non-uniformly.
  • the method additionally comprises a step of forming at least a first electrically conductive shielding layer at the bearing area of the first partial element and/or a second electrically conductive shielding layer at an outer area of the second partial element.
  • forming the first and/or second shielding layer comprises a step of sputtering and/or vapor deposition of electrically conductive material, which preferably comprises metal.
  • the step of forming the first and/or second shielding layer further preferably takes place after a step of firing the corresponding partial element.
  • the at least one shielding layer could be formed before or after step (c) of connecting the two partial elements.
  • the method comprises (preferably before step (c) of connecting the two partial elements) an additional step of depositing an electrically conductive layer on at least one part or region of at least one of the two connecting areas. Particularly preferably, said step takes place after step (b) of forming the at least one cutout.
  • the at least one conductive layer is preferably formed as part of a connecting layer, via which the two partial elements are connected in step (c).
  • the step of depositing said at least one conductive layer preferably comprises a step of sputtering and/or vapor deposition of electrically conductive material, which preferably comprises metal. Said layer preferably forms an essentially closed, continuous layer, which is particularly preferably arranged at the entire at least one connecting area.
  • the present invention provides a method for regulating the temperature of a substrate, comprising the following steps:
  • the fluid is supplied to the at least one cavity via the at least one first connection opening and is discharged from the at least one cavity via the at least one second connection opening.
  • the temperature and/or the flow rate of the supplied fluid is varied for the open-loop or closed-loop control of the temperature of the substrate.
  • the temperature and/or the flow rate of the supplied fluid can preferably be controlled in a manner dependent on a signal of a temperature sensor provided in or at the device and/or at the substrate.
  • a device according to the invention with vacuum grooves formed in the bearing area of said device is provided in the temperature-regulating method and the temperature-regulating method in this case preferably additionally comprises a step of sucking up the substrate by means of the vacuum grooves.
