Description

[규칙 제26조에 의한 보정 21.07.2016] 케미컬 용액 농도분석장치 및 방법[Correction according to Rule 26. 21.07.2016] 장치 Chemical solution concentration analysis device and method
본 발명은 케미컬 용액의 농도 분석 장치 및 방법에 관한 것으로, 더욱 상세하게는 케미컬 용액을 사용하는 공정에서 해당 용액 조성 내의 특정 성분의 농도를 공정장치로부터 실시간으로 채취하여 신속 및 정확하게 측정할 수 있는 케미컬 용액의 농도 분석 장치 및 방법에 관한 것이다. The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for analyzing a concentration of a chemical solution, and more particularly, a chemical that can quickly and accurately measure the concentration of a specific component in a corresponding solution composition in real time from a process apparatus in a process using a chemical solution. A device and method for analyzing the concentration of a solution.
액정 기판 제조 공정의 에칭액은 패턴의 고정밀화에 따라서 그 조성 및 농도는 엄밀하게 관리되지 않으면 안 된다. 에칭액과 같은 케미컬 용액의 특정 성분의 농도 분석은 사용자가 직접 약품을 채취하여 분석실등에서 습식 분석이나, 분석 기기를 이용하여 분석하는 것이 일반적이었고, 케미컬 용액 중의 특정 성분의 농도를 인라인으로 실시간으로 정확하게 측정하는 것이 불가능했다.The etching liquid of the liquid crystal substrate manufacturing process must be strictly controlled in composition and concentration in accordance with the high precision of the pattern. In the analysis of concentration of specific components of chemical solution such as etching solution, it is common for a user to collect chemicals directly and analyze them by wet analysis in an analysis room or using an analytical instrument. It was impossible to do.
예를 들어, 인산 농도 분석을 하는 종래의 방법으로는 아스코르빈산 환원법을 예로 들면, 실험실에서 전처리된 시료를 희석하고, 아스코르빈산과 몰리브덴산을 혼합하여 발색시킨 후 흡광도 측정이 가능한 분광광도계 (spectrophotometer) 등의 분석 기기를 이용하여 흡광도를 측정하여 인산 농도를 분석하는 방법이 공지되어 있다. For example, as a conventional method of analyzing the phosphoric acid concentration, ascorbic acid reduction method is used, for example, by diluting a sample pretreated in a laboratory, mixing the ascorbic acid with molybdate, and developing a spectrophotometer capable of absorbance measurement ( It is known to analyze the concentration of phosphoric acid by measuring the absorbance using an analytical device such as spectrophotometer.
또한 구리 농도 분석을 하기 위한 방법으로, 킬레이트 적정법을 예로 들면, 시료를 희석하고, 정해진 양의 암모니아 염화 암모늄 완충액과 메탄올, pan 지시약을 혼합하여 EDTA 표준액으로 적정하여 구리의 농도를 계산하여야 하나, 이러한 습식분석의 방법은 정확성이 떨어지는 한계가 있다. In addition, as a method for analyzing the copper concentration, for example, chelate titration, the sample should be diluted, and a predetermined amount of ammonium ammonium chloride buffer, methanol, and pan indicator should be mixed and titrated with EDTA standard solution to calculate the copper concentration. The method of wet analysis has a limitation in inaccuracy.
그리고 철의 농도 분석을 위한 방법으로, 원자 흡광 광도법을 예로 들면 전리된 시료를 적당량 비커에 취하여 질산을 넣고 끓여서 침전을 생성시키고, 침전물을 정해진 농도의 염산에 녹여 용액을 여과지로 여과한 후, 원자 흡광 분석 장치를 이용하여 흡광도를 측정하여 철 농도를 분석하여야 한다.As a method for analyzing the concentration of iron, for example, by using atomic absorption spectrophotometry, an ionized sample is taken in an appropriate amount of beaker, boiled with nitric acid to produce a precipitate, the precipitate is dissolved in hydrochloric acid of a predetermined concentration, and the solution is filtered through a filter paper, The absorbance should be measured using an absorbance analyzer to analyze the iron concentration.
상기에서 설명한 바와 같이 케미컬 용액 중의 특정 성분의 농도를 정확하게 분석하기 위해서는 고가의 분석 기기가 반드시 필요하고, 분석 방법이 복잡하며, 분석에 상당한 시간이 소요되므로, 케미컬 용액을 사용하는 각종 공정에서 인라인으로 실시간으로 필요한 성분의 농도를 분석, 관리하기 어려운 단점이 있었다.As described above, in order to accurately analyze the concentration of a specific component in the chemical solution, an expensive analytical instrument is necessary, the analysis method is complicated, and the analysis takes a considerable time, so it is inline in various processes using the chemical solution. It was difficult to analyze and manage the concentration of necessary ingredients in real time.
