具体实施方式
为了使本发明的目的、技术方案及优点更加清楚明白,以下结合附图对本发明提供的沉积设备以及物理气相沉积腔室进行说明。应当理解,此处所描述的具体实施例仅用以解释本发明,并不用于限定本发明。
在本发明的沉积设备中,第二腔室配置用以提供一高温环境,用以使基板可于第二腔室内进行排气工艺与溅射工艺,故可省去其它的预热和/或排气腔室并进而达到减少设备体积与成本的效果。
在本发明的物理气相沉积腔室中,可利用在腔室本体内设置的热源,用以将腔室本体加热至一高温环境,以对载入腔室本体内的基板进行排气工艺以及溅射工艺,因此可不需设置额外的预热/排气腔室并进而达到减少设备体积与成本的效果。
本说明书中所使用的"步骤"一词并不限于单一动作,此"步骤"一词可包括单一个动作、操作或手法,或者可为由多个动作、操作和/或手法所组成的集合。
请参考图1与图2。图1为本发明一些实施例的沉积设备的示意图,图2为本发明一些实施例的沉积设备的操作流程示意图。如图1所示,本发明的一些实施例提供一种沉积设备M1,包括第一腔室100、第二腔室200以及第三腔室300。第一腔室100经配置用以载入基板(图1与图2未绘示),故第一腔室100可被视为载入/载出腔室,但并不以此为限。第二腔室200经配置用以提供高温环境,以使载入的基板在第二腔室200内进行排气工艺以及溅射工艺。第三腔室300设置于第一腔室100以及第二腔室200之间且与第一腔室100以及第二腔室200相连。第三腔室300经配置用以将基板由第一腔室100通过第三腔室300直接传输至第二腔室200。第三腔室300可被视为传输腔室,但并不以此为限。
如图1与图2所示,在一些实施例中,沉积设备M1的操作流程可 包括下列的步骤S1、步骤S2以及步骤S3。步骤S1中,将基板载入沉积设备M1的第一腔室100。步骤S2中,将基板由第一腔室100通过第三腔室300直接传输至第二腔室200(也就是物理气相沉积腔室)。步骤S3中,于第二腔室200内对基板进行排气(degas)工艺以及溅射(sputtering)工艺。在一些实施例中,沉积设备M1可另包括一热源(图1与图2未绘示)设置于第二腔室200内,其中热源经配置用以提供上述的高温环境,且第二腔室200的高温环境例如为摄氏400度以上,故可利用热源于溅射工艺进行之前和/或于溅射工艺进行时对基板和/或第二腔室200内的环境进行加热。当第二腔室200内的温度被热源加热至高于将要沉积在基板表面的材料层例如氮化铝薄膜的结晶温度时(例如物理气相沉积腔室内的温度可高于摄氏400度,或优选地可介于摄氏400度至摄氏800度之间,或更优选地可介于摄氏500度至摄氏700度之间),同时可对基板和/或基板表面产生排气和/或高温活化的效果。因此,第二腔室200亦可被视为一排气及物理气相沉积腔室,但并不以此为限。此外,借助于第二腔室200中的热源持续进行加热可以达到可进行物理气相沉积工艺的温度条件,且此温度可高于物理气相沉积工艺所溅射形成的薄膜的结晶温度,藉以对物理气相沉积工艺的成膜质量有正面的帮助。再者,上述在物理气相沉积腔室内的高温状况对靶材与腔室状况亦有正面影响。举例来说,上述的高温状况可使靶材的结晶颗粒变大而降低微粒(particle)相关的缺陷产生,此外在物理气相沉积腔室处于高温状态下其遮蔽单元(图未示)的组件上的薄膜亦较不易发生破裂(crack),而此亦有助于改善微粒相关的缺陷问题。精确而言,因此本实施例的物理气相沉积腔室在进行了一批次溅射之后可进行涂布处理,而由于腔室是处于高于摄氏400度的环境下,因此仅需使用低功率进行并可缩短涂布处理的时间,且可以减少进行涂布(pasting)处理的次数与频率,故可以缩短整体工艺时间并对于靶材的使用寿命亦有正面的帮 助。反之,在公知的物理气相沉积腔室内,由于腔室内是处于低于摄氏350度,因此靶材的结晶颗粒较小而会增加微粒相关的缺陷产生的机率,且在此状况下,覆盖环与上端盖等部件上的薄膜亦容易发生破裂而导致微粒缺陷增加。因此,公知的物理气相沉积腔室的涂布处理需使用高功率并持续数十分钟,且其进行涂布处理的次数与频率较高,不仅增加了整体工艺时间,更会造成靶材的使用寿命减短。
由于在第二腔室200内可进行排气工艺以及溅射工艺,故可藉此省去排气腔室和/或其它加热腔室的设置,进而可达到减少设备体积与成本的效果。此外,本发明的沉积设备及物理气相沉积腔室的设计亦可简化制作流程,并可避免基板在加热腔室加热之后在传递至溅射腔室的过程中产生微粒落在基板上而造成相关缺陷。此外,上述高温环境优选地可高于摄氏400度,藉以有效地使基板达到排气和/或高温活化的效果,而当物理气相沉积工艺为高温物理气相沉积工艺时,可借助于第二腔室200中的热源持续进行加热而实现高温物理气相沉积工艺。
换句话说,基板在载入沉积设备M1之后以及在第二腔室200进行排气工艺及溅射工艺之前可以无需通过其它加热腔室进行预热和/或排气。在一些实施例中,除了第二腔室200之外,第三腔室300可以不与任何加热腔室连接。在一些实施例中,沉积设备M1除了第二腔室200(也就是物理气相沉积腔室)之外未包括其它加热腔室。
请参考图3与图4。图3为本发明一些实施例的物理气相沉积腔室的示意图,图4为本发明一些实施例的物理气相沉积腔室进行溅射流程的流程示意图。如图3所示,在一些实施例中,物理气相沉积腔室(也就是第二腔室200)包括一腔室本体10、一靶材T、一承载底座20以及一热源21。承载底座20以与靶材T保持一间距的方式设置于腔室本体10内,且承载底座20具有一相对靶材T的承载面20S,用以承载基板W。热源21设置于腔室本体10内,热源21经配置用以将腔室本体 10加热至摄氏400度以上(优选地可介于摄氏400度至摄氏800度之间,且更优选地可介于摄氏500度至摄氏700度之间),以对基板W进行排气工艺以及溅射工艺。在一些实施例中,热源21可包括一辐射式热源,且此辐射式热源可包括多个加热灯管21T,而基板W可设置于热源21与靶材T之间,但本发明并不以此为限。
在一些实施例中,物理气相沉积腔室(也就是第二腔室200)可包括一传输单元41以及一遮蔽盘42。传输单元41的至少一部分设置于腔室本体10内,遮蔽盘42固定于传输单元41上,且传输单元41经配置可将遮蔽盘42移动至位于承载面20S与靶材T之间,且遮蔽盘42亦位于承载底座20与靶材T之间。传输单元41可借助于例如旋转方式、平移方式或其它适合的方式将遮蔽盘42移动至位于承载面20S与靶材T之间,而由于遮蔽盘42是固定于传输单元41上,故遮蔽盘42不需被放置于承载底座20上。因此,当遮蔽盘42位于承载面20S与靶材T之间时,在承载底座20上仍可承载欲进行溅射的基板W,故借助于第二腔室200(也就是物理气相沉积腔室)的设计,可在物理气相沉积腔室已载入基板W的状况下对靶材T进行表面修饰工艺,进而达到缩短工艺时间以及提升产能的效果。在一些实施例中,可先将一个或多个基板W放置于一托盘(图未示)上,再将放置有基板W的托盘经由上述的第一腔室100以及第三腔室300载入物理气相沉积腔室的腔室本体10内并放置于承载底座20上。在另外一些实施例中,亦可不通过托盘而直接将基板W放置于承载底座20上。在一些实施例中,基板W可包括蓝宝石基板、碳化硅(SiC)基板或其它适合的材质所形成的单一材料基板或复合层材料基板,例如硅基板、绝缘层覆硅(SOI)基板、玻璃基板或陶瓷基板,而遮蔽盘42可由诸如碳化硅(SiC)或钼等耐高温材料制成,但并不以此为限。此外,腔室本体10以及腔室本体10内的部件优选地是由金属钼、低碳不锈钢、石英或其它可耐高温的金属 或非金属材料制成,藉此可于腔室本体10内形成上述的高温环境或执行其它高温工艺而不会产生质变或形变。
如图3与图4所示,在一些实施例中,在物理气相沉积腔室(也就是第二腔室200)内进行的溅射流程SR可包括下列的步骤S11、步骤S12、步骤S13、步骤S14、步骤S15、步骤S16以及步骤S17。步骤S11中,将基板W载入物理气相沉积腔室内。步骤S12中,对物理气相沉积腔室进行排气工艺。排气工艺可利用热源21将腔室本体10加热至高温环境而实现,而此高温环境可对基板W产生排气和/或活化的效果,故此高温环境优选地可高于将要沉积在基板表面的材料层例如氮化铝薄膜的结晶温度(例如物理气相沉积腔室内的温度可高于摄氏400度,或优选地可介于摄氏400度至摄氏800度之间,但并不以此为限)。然后,步骤S13中,利用传输单元41将遮蔽盘42移动至承载面20S与靶材T之间。步骤S14中,对靶材进行表面修饰工艺。步骤S15中,利用传输单元41将遮蔽盘42移开。步骤S16中,利用腔室本体10内的靶材T对基板W进行溅射,以于基板W上形成薄膜。步骤S17中,将形成有薄膜的基板W载出物理气相沉积腔室。虽然对靶材T进行表面修饰工艺时基板W已载入腔室本体10内,但由于遮蔽盘42位于承载面20S与靶材T之间,可避免靶材T的材料形成到基板W上。换句话说,借助于上述的溅射流程SR可不须在对靶材T进行表面修饰工艺之后再开启腔室本体10以载入基板W,故对于稳定基板W进行溅射时的工艺状况有正面帮助,此外亦可节省因载入基板W而需费时再稳定腔室本体10的操作,进而缩短溅射流程SR的整体时间并达到提升产能的效果。
在一些实施例中,热源21于腔室本体10内形成高温环境的动作可被视为一加热工艺,而至少部分的加热工艺可与靶材W的表面修饰工艺同时进行,由此达到缩短整体工艺时间的效果。此外,当物理气相沉 积工艺为高温物理气相沉积工艺时,可借助于第二腔室200中的热源21持续进行加热而实现高温物理气相沉积工艺。热源21可设置于腔室本体10内,热源21可对第二腔室200加热至摄氏400度或以上,故热源21经配置可用以控制腔室本体10内的温度。举例来说,在进行上述的加热工艺和/或物理气相沉积工艺时,可利用热源21对腔室本体10和/或基板W进行加热,用以达到除气的效果和/或物理气相沉积工艺时所需的工艺温度。
上述的物理气相沉积腔室进行的溅射流程SR仅为示例,而本发明并不以上述的溅射流程SR的内容为限,其它需要的额外步骤亦可于溅射流程SR之前、之后和/或其中进行,而溅射流程SR中所述的步骤亦可于其它实施例中被取代、删除或改变其顺序。
在一些实施例中,上述的沉积装置以及物理气相沉积腔室可用以形成非金属薄膜、金属薄膜或金属化合物薄膜例如氮化铝(AlN)薄膜,但并不以此为限。换句话说,第二腔室200可以是氮化铝物理气相沉积腔室,经配置用以于基板W上形成一氮化铝薄膜。
下文将针对本发明的不同实施例进行说明,且为简化说明,以下说明主要针对各实施例不同之处进行详述,而不再对相同之处作重复赘述。此外,本发明的各实施例中相同的组件是以相同的标号进行标示,以利于各实施例间互相对照。
请参考图5。图5为本发明一些实施例的物理气相沉积腔室的示意图。如图5所示,在一些实施例中,物理气相沉积腔室201还可包括设置于腔室本体10内的一屏蔽单元30,屏蔽单元30设置于靶材T与承载底座20之间,当遮蔽盘42移动至位于承载面20S与靶材T之间时,遮蔽盘42亦位于承载底座20与屏蔽单元30之间。承载底座20可与屏蔽单元30在第一方向D1上对应设置,第一方向D1可被视为一垂直方向,但并不以此为限。屏蔽单元30在第一方向D1上设置于承载底座 20以及靶材T之间。遮蔽盘42固定于传输单元41上,且传输单元41经配置可沿第二方向D2将遮蔽盘42在一暂置位置P1与一遮挡位置P2之间移动,而在遮挡位置P2时遮蔽盘42位于承载面20S与靶材T之间,且遮蔽盘42亦位于承载面20S与屏蔽单元30之间。第二方向D2可被视为一水平方向,但并不以此为限。传输单元41可借助于例如旋转方式、平移方式或其它适合的方式将遮蔽盘42移动至位于承载面20S与靶材T之间,也可说是将遮蔽盘42沿第二方向D2在暂置位置P1与遮挡位置P2之间移动,但并不以此为限。此外,由于遮蔽盘42是固定于传输单元41上,故遮蔽盘42不需被放置于承载底座20上。此外,物理气相沉积腔室201可还包括设置于承载底座20上的多个顶针22,且顶针22是经配置用以将基板W自承载底座20的表面顶起。在一些实施例中,顶针22可包括测温式顶针,用以检测腔室本体10内和/或基板W的温度,但并不以此为限。
在一些实施例中,遮蔽盘42可具有一黏着面,至少部分的黏着面是面对靶材T,且此黏着面可包括一粗糙面或经由适当的表面处理例如喷砂、熔射或表面粗化等方式所形成的黏着面,用以增加遮蔽盘42与靶材T的材料的结合能力,进而使遮蔽盘42的上表面能够吸附更多由靶材T所掉落的材料,达到加强遮蔽盘42的遮挡作用的效果。
请参考图6A、图6B与图7。图6A与图6B为本发明一些实施例的物理气相沉积腔室进行溅射流程的状况示意图,图7为本发明一些实施例的遮蔽盘与传输单元之间的连接状况示意图。如图6A所示,可利用传输单元41将遮蔽盘42移动至位于承载面20S与靶材T之间,也可说是将遮蔽盘42传输至位于基板W上方的遮挡位置P2;或者,如图6B所示,可利用传输单元41将遮蔽盘42通过一端口51移动到位于一遮蔽盘库50所形成的暂置位置P1。在一些实施例中,遮蔽盘库50与腔室本体10之间可进行密封处理,考虑到遮蔽盘库50与腔室本体 10之间的真空完整性,遮蔽盘库50也可以与腔室本体10采用焊接的方式连接或者以一体成型的方式形成。传输单元41可以旋转方式或其它适合的方式将遮蔽盘42移动至位于承载面20S与靶材T之间,也可说是将遮蔽盘42沿第二方向D2在暂置位置P1与遮挡位置P2之间移动。举例来说,传输单元41的结构可包括旋转轴41A和托板41B,遮蔽盘42可固定在托板41B的上表面上,而旋转轴41A与和托板41B连接。利用一驱动源提供旋转动力,可使旋转轴41A带动托板41B以顺时针或逆时针方式旋转一预设角度,以将遮蔽盘42移动到遮挡位置P2或者暂置位置P1。此外,如图7所示,遮蔽盘42可借助于一固定组件43而固定于传输单元41上。固定组件43可包括螺钉、铆钉、黏着材料或其它适合的固定组件,用以使遮蔽盘42可与传输单元41的托板41B固定在一起。在本发明的其它实施例中,亦可使用其它可拆卸方式或非可拆卸方式例如焊接方式来使得遮蔽盘42固定于传输单元41上。
如图6A所示,当遮蔽盘42移动到遮挡位置P2时,遮蔽盘42位于屏蔽单元30与基板W之间,而位于承载底座20上的基板W可借助于承载底座20下降至一装卸位置P3,此时可对靶材T进行清洗,且同时亦可利用热源21对腔室本体10和/或基板W进行加热。在一些实施例中,屏蔽单元30具有一开口H,且遮蔽盘42的面积(例如于第一方向D1上的投影面积)是大于屏蔽单元30的开口H的面积,藉以确保遮蔽盘42的遮蔽效果。举例来说,在一些实施例中,屏蔽单元30可包括一遮蔽环30A以及一环形罩30B用于支撑遮蔽环30A,而遮蔽环30A靠近承载面20S的一端的内表面30W限定出开口H,但并不以此为限。当遮蔽盘42移动至遮挡位置P2时(也就是位于承载面20S与屏蔽单元30之间时),遮蔽盘42与屏蔽单元30之间于第一方向D1上具有一间隔距离SP,用以确保遮蔽盘42可于第二方向D2上顺利移动且使得靶材T溅射出的靶材材料无法通过屏蔽单元30与遮蔽盘42之间的间隙而 溅射至基板W上。举例来说,间隔距离SP可介于2毫米至4毫米之间,但并不以此为限。在一些实施例中,遮蔽盘42的外径R1优选地是大于遮蔽环30A的内径R2,用以确保靶材T的材料即使穿过了遮蔽环30A与遮蔽盘42之间的间隙,也只会朝腔室本体10的侧壁方向溅射,而不会溅射至基板W上。此外,上述内径R2可被视为开口H的直径,而遮蔽盘42的外径R1优选地可比遮蔽环30A的内径R2大20毫米至30毫米,但并不以此为限。
如图6B所示,当遮蔽盘42移动至暂置位置P1时,位于承载底座20上的基板W可借助于承载底座20上升至一工艺位置P4,此时遮蔽环30A可自环形罩30B被托起,以使遮蔽环30A在自身重力的作用下压住基板W的边缘部分以利用靶材T对基板W进行溅射。当遮蔽盘42位于暂置位置P1时,遮蔽盘42的一部分通过端口51移入遮蔽盘库50所罩的空间内,而遮蔽盘42的其余部分也朝腔室本体10的周边方向偏移,直至到达基板W以及承载底座20的上升路径之外,藉此确保基板W能够顺利上升至工艺位置P4。
请参考图8A与图8B。图8A与图8B为本发明一些实施例的物理气相沉积腔室进行溅射流程的状况示意图。如图8A所示,可利用传输单元41将遮蔽盘42移动至位于承载面20S与靶材T之间,也可说是将遮蔽盘42传输至位于基板W上方的遮挡位置P2;或者,如图8B所示,可利用传输单元41将遮蔽盘42通过一端口51移动到位于遮蔽盘库50所形成的暂置位置P1。如图8A与图8B所示,在一些实施例中,传输单元41可以平移方式将遮蔽盘42移动至位于承载面20S与靶材T之间,也可说是将遮蔽盘42沿第二方向D2在暂置位置P1与遮挡位置P2之间移动。举例来说,传输单元41可包括用于承载遮蔽盘42的机械手臂41C,机械手臂41C设置在遮蔽盘库50所形成的空间内,机械手臂41C可通过端口51伸入腔室本体10内部,或者自腔室本体10内 部缩回到遮蔽盘库50所形成的空间内,以将遮蔽盘42移动至遮挡位置P2或暂置位置P1。举例来说,机械手臂41C可由多个相连接的悬臂所构成,多个悬臂通过折叠或展开来实现在第二方向D2上的水平伸缩动作,但并不以此为限。其它结构的其它机械手臂或其它可用来实现在第二方向D2上进行水平伸缩动作的结构亦在本发明的范围之内。
请参考图9与图10。图9为本发明一些实施例的沉积设备的示意图,图10为本发明一些实施例的沉积设备的操作流程示意图。如图9所示,本发明的一些实施例提供一沉积设备M2,与上述的图1所示的沉积设备M1不同的地方在于,沉积设备M2还包括一第四腔室400,其与第三腔室300相连,第四腔室400经配置用以执行冷却工艺,可对已于第二腔室200中完成排气工艺以及溅射工艺的基板进行降温冷却的动作。举例来说,在一些实施例中,沉积设备M2的操作流程可包括如图10所示的步骤S1、步骤S2、步骤S3与步骤S4。步骤S1中,将基板载入沉积设备M1的第一腔室100。步骤S2中,将基板由第一腔室100通过第三腔室300直接传输至第二腔室200。步骤S3中,于第二腔室200内对基板进行排气工艺及溅射工艺。步骤S4中,将完成排气工艺及溅射工艺的基板自第二腔室200载出,并经由第三腔室300将基板传输至第四腔室400进行冷却工艺。此外,借助于第四腔室400将基板的温度下降到一预定温度后可将基板自第四腔室400取出并依序经过第三腔室300、第一腔室100后自沉积设备M2载出。
综上所述,在本发明的沉积设备中,由于物理气相沉积腔室经配置用以将腔室本体加热至一高温环境,故可于物理气相沉积腔室内对基板进行排气工艺以及溅射工艺。此外,可利用传输腔室将基板由载入/载出腔室直接传输至物理气相沉积腔室,以对基板进行排气工艺及溅射工艺,藉此省去预热排气腔室而达到减少设备体积与成本的效果。此外,借助于本发明的沉积设备亦可简化制作流程,可避免基板在其它加热腔 室加热之后在传递至物理气相沉积腔室的过程中产生微粒落在基板上的问题。在本发明的物理气相沉积腔室中,可在腔室本体内设置热源,用以将腔室本体加热至一高温环境,以对载入腔室本体内的基板进行排气工艺以及溅射工艺。此外,遮蔽盘是固定于传输单元上,而传输单元将遮蔽盘移动至位于承载底座的承载面与靶材之间,故遮蔽盘位于遮挡位置时在承载底座上仍可承载欲被进行溅射的基板,藉此可在已载入基板的状况下进行清洗靶材的动作,进而达到缩短工艺时间以及提升产能的效果。此外,在靶材进行清洗时位于遮蔽盘下方的基板亦可同时进行加热工艺,藉以对基板产生排气和/或高温活化的效果,并可因此缩短整体的工艺时间并进而达到产能的提升。
