なお、本願は、2014年11月12日に日本に出願された特願2014-229393に基づく優先権を主張するものであり、特願2014-229393の全内容を本願に援用する。
である。
図1及び図2に示すように、本実施形態の支持対象となる、シリコンウェーハに代表される半導体ウェーハ(以下、単にウェーハという)Wは、RTA装置(急速昇降温熱処理装置)内に設けられた半導体ウェーハの支持装置50に水平に支持されて、赤外線のランプ(図示せず)により熱処理されるようになっている。RTA装置は石英からなるチャンバ(図示せず)を有する。赤外線ランプは複数個備えられており、チャンバを上下から囲繞するとともに、赤外線の照射方向をチャンバに向けて配置されている。また、赤外線ランプのパワーは、個別に制御可能になっている。
β/2 < α < (90-β/2) (1)
傾斜角度αは5度以上70度以下の範囲にあることが好ましい。下限値未満では支持ピン軸部によるランプ光遮蔽からウェーハ支持部温度が低下しスリップ低減効果が得られにくくなり、上限値を超えると支持ピンの長さが長くなりピンの折損が発生し易くなる。また先端部51aがなす角度βは5度以上40度以下の範囲にあることが好ましい。下限値未満ではピン先端部に折損が発生し易くなり、上限値を超えると支持ピン先端部によるランプ光遮蔽からウェーハ支持部温度が低下しスリップ低減効果が得られにくくなる。
本発明の第2の実施形態を図3に示す。図3において、図2と同じ構成部材については同じ参照符号を付し、その説明を省略する。図3に示す支持装置50では、ベーストレイ52の上面52aに3つのピンホルダー54が溶接され、上面視で120度間隔で固着される。このピンホルダー54には、第1の実施形態で述べた凹部52bに相当する凹部54aが形成される。この凹部54aの内径は、凹部52bと同様に、支持ピン51の基部51b及び胴部51cの各外径より僅かに大きく、凹部54aに基部51b及び胴部51cを挿入した支持ピン51を緩みなく固定する。3つの凹部54aは基部51b及び胴部51cを固定したときに支持ピン51をウェーハ裏面WBからの垂線Xに対してそのピン軸51dが傾斜角度αで傾斜した状態になるように形成される。なお図示しないが、ピンホルダー54の高さを小さくして、凹部54aには支持ピン51の基部51bのみが挿入されるピンホルダーでもよい。第2の実施形態のその他の構成は、第1の実施形態と同じである。

本発明の第4の実施形態を図5に示す。図5において、図3と同じ構成部材については同じ参照符号を付し、その説明を省略する。図5に示す支持装置50の特徴ある構成は、ベーストレイ52に支持ピン51の基部51b及び胴部51cが貫通可能な貫通孔52cが形成され、ベーストレイ52の下面52dに貫通孔52cを貫通した基部51b及び胴部51cを保持するピンホルダー55が溶接により固着され、このピンホルダー55が支持ピン接触部Yからベーストレイ52側に下ろす垂線Xに接触しないように配置されることにある。なお図示しないが、ピンホルダー55の高さを小さくして、凹部55aには支持ピン51の基部51bのみが挿入されるピンホルダーでもよい。第4の実施形態のその他の構成は、第3の実施形態と同じである。
図3に示す支持装置を有するRTA装置を用いて、直径300mm、厚さ775μmの3枚のシリコンウェーハを熱処理した。支持ピン51は、円錐状の先端部51aと、円柱形状の胴部51cと基部51bとを有しており、支持ピン全体の長さが19.5mm、先端部51aの長さが9mm、胴部51cと基部51bの直径が1.5mmに形成されたものを用いた。支持ピン51の材質は石英とした。支持ピン51の傾斜角度αは30度であり、支持ピン51の先端部51aのなす角度βは9度とした。ピンホルダー54は高さ5mmのものを用いた。
図4に示す支持装置を有するRTA装置を用いて、実施例1と同一のシリコン単結晶インゴットから切り出した直径300mm、厚さ775μmの3枚のシリコンウェーハを熱処理した。支持ピン51は、円錐状の先端部51aと、円柱形状の胴部51cと基部51bとを有しており、支持ピン全体の長さが24mm、先端部51aの長さが5mm、胴部51cと基部51bの直径が1mmに形成されたものを用いた。支持ピン51の材質はSiCとした。支持ピン51の傾斜角度αは45度であり、支持ピン51の先端部51aのなす角度βは6度とした。ピンホルダー54は高さ4mmのものを用いた。
図7に示す支持装置を有するRTA装置を用いて、実施例1と同一のシリコン単結晶インゴットから切り出した直径300mm、厚さ775μmの3枚のシリコンウェーハを熱処理した。支持ピン21は、円錐状の先端部21cと、円柱形状の本体部(胴部と基部に相当)21eとを有しており、支持ピン全体の長さが17mm、先端部21cの長さが6.5mm、本体部21eの直径が1.5mmに形成されたものを用いた。支持ピン21の材質は石英であった。支持ピン21の傾斜角度αは3度であり、支持ピン21の先端部21cのなす角度βは9度であった。ピンホルダー12は高さ8mmのものを用いた。
実施例1、実施例2及び比較例1の支持装置を有するRTA装置を用いて、その最高の熱処理温度を1200℃、1250℃、1300℃に個別に設定し、昇温速度50℃/秒、処理時間10秒、降温速度50℃/秒で、それぞれ3枚のシリコンウェーハを熱処理した。熱処理したシリコンウェーハについてウェーハ裏面からウェーハ表面まで伸展しているスリップをレーザー散乱方式の異物検査装置(KLA-Tencor社製 SP1)で測定した。その結果を表1に示す。
表1から明らかなように、比較例1の支持装置を有するRTA装置では、最高熱処理温度が1200℃ではスリップ転位は発生しなかったが、1250℃、1300℃でスリップ転位が発生した。これに対して実施例1及び2の支持装置を有するRTA装置では、最高熱処理温度が1200℃は勿論のこと、1250℃、1300℃でもスリップ転位は発生しなかった。以上の結果から、本発明の支持方法及び支持装置によれば、1300℃の高温の熱処理でもスリップ転位の発生を確実に防止できることが判った。
