- it since it is kept covered with the special floor membrane 11 until bonding, it can be transported in the air and waited in the air while preventing the adhesion of foreign matter layers, further improving the process and equipment. Simplification is possible, and the degree of freedom between the cleaning process and the bonding process is increased. Due to this increase in the degree of freedom, even if the time required for each process is different, a buffer such as a standby portion can be provided without any problem, and a series of processes for the entire bonding process including energy wave cleaning can be performed. The operation can be performed smoothly, which can contribute to the improvement of productivity. It can also contribute to shortening the tact time of the entire process.
- the joint surface cleaned by the energy wave so as to be covered with the special film by maintaining the joint surface cleaned by the energy wave so as to be covered with the special film until the joining, basically, the foreign matter remains on the joint surface until immediately before the joining where the special film is removed.
- a special coating is required during the transporting process, the standby process, the holding operation, and the positioning. It is preferable to locally purge the atmosphere with a non-oxidizing gas or a special gas to the joint surface covered with. In this way, the joining surface is less likely to be exposed to atmospheric air (outside air) in a state where the special film is formed, so that the effect of forming the special film until the actual joining is more effectively exhibited. Will be.
- the tray 43 is taken out from the tray changer 44 in which the trays (work trays) 43 containing the chips 41 and the substrates 42 are stacked and carried into the cleaning chamber 45.
- a tray loader for taking out a tray which will be described later, may be used for this removal and loading, or another dedicated means may be used.
- a reaction gas for generating plasma for example, Ar gas
- the inside of the cleaning chamber 45 is replaced with the special gas 46 according to the present invention, and a special film is formed.
- the inside of the cleaning chamber 45 is set to, for example, the atmospheric pressure.
- the tray 4.3 on which the chip 41 on which the special film is formed and the substrate 42 are placed is taken out of the cleaning chamber 45 by the tray loader 47, and the purge gas 48 made of non-oxidizing gas or special gas is used. While the atmosphere on the tray 43 on which the chip 41 and the substrate 42 are placed is purged, the wafer is conveyed to the standby section 50 on the stage tape 49.
- the purging in the tray loader 47 is performed, for example, by supplying a non-oxidizing gas or a special gas through the porous plate 51.
- the tray 4 which can be moved by the lid 54 movable while being purged by the purge gas 53 made of a non-oxidizing gas or a special gas blown out from the purge nozzle 52 is used.
- the top is covered and the purge gas 53 is trapped.
- the lid 54 is opened, and the substrate 42 is held by suction by the holding head 56 attached to the tip of the substrate transfer mechanism 55, and the held substrate 42 is bonded to the bonding stage. Transferred on 5 7 Also in this case, since the purge gas 53 is purged on the tray 43 by the purge nozzle 52, other chips and substrates are also covered with the purge gas.
- the substrate 42 is sucked and held by suction, and is transferred to the bonding stage 57 when transferring.
- the purge gas 58 is blown out again into the holding head 56 to break the vacuum state in the head.
- the lid 54 is opened, and the chip 41 is held by suction by the holding head 60 attached to the tip of the chip reversing mechanism 59, and the held chip 4 1 is inverted and then transferred onto the lower surface of the bond ring 61.
- the purge gas 53 is purged on the tray 43 by the purge nozzle 52, other chips and substrates are also covered with the purge gas.
- the purge gas 62 made of a non-oxidizing gas or a special gas is blown out into the holding head 60, the chip 41 is sucked and held by suction, and is used for transferring to the bonding tool 61.
- suction is released, hold again The purge gas 62 is blown into the head 60, and the vacuum state in the head is broken.
- the recognition means 67 for two fields of view is performed using the recognition means 67 for two fields of view. After the alignment, the two visual field recognition means 67 are retracted, the bonding head 68 is lowered, and the chip 41 held by the bonding tool 61 is held by the bonding stage 57. It is joined to the substrate 42 while using pressure and, in some cases, heating.
- the mounted product is taken out, for example, by the substrate transfer mechanism 55 and stored in the completed product tray 69.
- the finished product tray 69 is delivered to the tray changer 144 for stacking the finished products tray 69 by, for example, the tray loader 147. It is. In this manner, a purge with a non-oxidizing gas or a special gas can be applied to various points in a series of operation steps.
- the joining apparatus and method according to the present invention can be applied to all kinds of joining between objects to be joined having a metal joining portion, and are particularly suitable for joining when at least one of the objects to be joined is a semiconductor.
