具体实施方式
本公开提供一种下电极机构,其包括用于承载被加工工件的基座,以及设置在该基座下方的下电极腔,其中,下电极腔包括相互隔离的电磁屏蔽空间和非电磁屏蔽空间,以防止电磁屏蔽空间内的第一部件受到来自非电磁屏蔽空间内的第二部件的干扰,从而不仅可以避免因射频干扰导致的电场均匀性受到影响,而且借助电磁屏蔽空间还可以减少射频泄漏,从而可以提高射频稳定性。此外,电磁屏蔽空间和非电磁屏蔽空间分别通过贯穿下电极腔腔体的第一通孔和第二通孔与外界连通,上述第一部件通过第一通孔引入电磁屏蔽空间;上述第二部件通过第二通孔引入非电磁屏蔽空间。
为使本公开的目的、技术方案和优点更加清楚明白,以下结合具体实施例,并参照附图,对本公开进一步详细说明。显然,所描述的实施例仅仅是本公开一部分实施例,而不是全部的实施例。基于本公开中的实施例,本领域普通技术人员在没有做出创造性劳动前提下所获得的所有其他实施例,都属于本公开保护的范围。
下面对上述下电极机构的结构进行详细描述。具体地,请一并参阅图1A~图10,根据本公开实施例的下电极机构位于反应腔室内,包括用于承 载被加工工件11的基座1,以及设置在该基座1下方的下电极腔12。该下电极腔12包括相互隔离的电磁屏蔽空间55和非电磁屏蔽空间20,通过将下电极腔12形成相互隔离的电磁屏蔽空间55和非电磁屏蔽空间20,可以防止电磁屏蔽空间55内的第一部件25受到来自非电磁屏蔽空间20内的第二部件26的干扰。
具体地,腔体2包括腔体本体,在该腔体本体一侧形成有第一延伸部21,该第一延伸部21延伸至上述下电极机构所处反应腔室的侧壁3的内表面;并且,在该第一延伸部21中形成有水平设置的第一通孔23和第二通孔24。
如图1C所示,下电极机构所处反应腔室的侧壁3的内表面在该反应腔室的轴向上的正投影形状为圆形,即,反应腔室的内部空间32是对称结构,而由于上述第一延伸部21相对于基座1凸出,这使得下电极机构的整体结构是非对称的,从而影响了上述下电极机构所处反应腔室的内部空间32中的气流场均匀性,进而影响工艺均匀性。为此,优选的,如图1A所示,在腔体本体的与上述第一延伸部21相对的另一侧设置有第二延伸部22,该第二延伸部22与第一延伸部21相对于基座1在径向上的中心线111对称,从而可以保证下电极机构所处反应腔室的内部空间32的气流场均匀性,进而可以提高工艺均匀性。容易理解,上述第二延伸部22的尺寸和外部形状与上述第一延伸部21的尺寸和外部形状趋于一致,以使下电极机构的整体结构是对称的。
同时参见图2,上述第一部件25依次通过第一通孔23和电磁屏蔽空间55与基座1中的第一部件接口(图中未示出)连接;上述第二部件26依次通过第二通孔24和非电磁屏蔽空间20与基座1中的第二部件接口(图中未示出)连接。

在基座1中还设置有用于向基座1与被加工工件11之间的间隙中通入冷却气体的背吹通道,以及用于冷却基座1的冷却通道,在这种情况下,上述第二部件26包括背吹管路8,且在基座1内设置有背吹管路8的接口,用以将上述背吹通道与背吹管路8的输出端连接,背吹管路8的输入端与下电极机构所处反应腔室外部的背吹气源连接,以提供冷却气体。在基座1中还设置有冷却通道,用以冷却基座1,在这种情况下,上述第二部件26还包括冷却管路9,且在基座1内设置有冷却管路9的接口,用以将上述冷却通道与冷却管路9的输出端连接,该冷却管路9的输入端与下电极机构所处反应腔室外部的冷却水源连接,以提供冷却水。除此之外,在基座1内还设置有温度传感器,在这种情况下,上述第二部件26还包括该温度传感器的接线10,且在该基座1内设置有接线10的接口,用以将上述温度传感器与该接线10的输出端连接,该接线10的输出端与下电极机构所处反应腔室外部的控制单元连接,用以向控制单元输出检测数据。另外,在上述非电磁屏蔽空间20内还设置有顶针机构7,用以在进行取放片操作时,升降基座1上的被加工工件11。由上可知,上述第二部件26通常包括背吹管路8、冷却管路9和接线10。
下面对形成上述电磁屏蔽空间55和非电磁屏蔽空间20的结构进行详细描述。具体地,在本实施例中,基座1包括由上至下依次设置的基座本体和绝缘盘51。绝缘盘51设置在下电极腔12的顶部,用于承载基座本体,且使该基座本体与下电极腔的腔体2电绝缘。该绝缘盘51呈盘状,其可 以采用诸如三氧化二铝等的绝缘材料制作。优选的,绝缘盘51的厚度的取值范围在60~300mm,以保证基座本体与下电极腔的腔体2及其内部的部件之间的良好绝缘,且能够使基座本体的电位稳定。另外,优选的,背吹管路8、冷却管路9和顶针机构7与基座本体连接的部分均采用绝缘材料制作,以使三者与基座本体之间电绝缘。
下电极机构还包括第一屏蔽模组,该第一屏蔽模组设置在第一通孔23的内端与基座1之间,且位于下电极腔12中,以形成第一电磁屏蔽腔,该第一电磁屏蔽腔即为电磁屏蔽空间55。下电极腔12内的位于上述第一电磁屏蔽腔之外的空间即为非电磁屏蔽空间20。
在本实施例中,上述第一屏蔽模组包括屏蔽套管53,其设置在下电极腔12内,且呈圆弧状,并且屏蔽套管53的一端与设置在绝缘盘51底部的接口盘52连接,屏蔽套管53的另一端与第一引入通道41连通,从而形成上述第一电磁屏蔽腔。通过使屏蔽套管53呈圆弧状,可以节省屏蔽套管53在下电极腔12内的占用空间,从而给非电磁屏蔽空间20内的第二部件的布置带来方便。另外,优选的,在屏蔽套管53与接口盘52的连接处,以及屏蔽套管53与腔体2的内壁的连接处均设置有弹性导电片,以提高屏蔽套管53通过接口盘52和腔体2接地的效果。
在本实施例中,下电极机构还包括引入组件60,该引入组件60用作上述第一部件25的载体,将所有的第一部件25集成在一起,并引入基座1的底部,以使不同的第一部件25的引入路径相同,从而可以提高第一部件25的布置一致性。
下面对引入组件60的具体结构进行详细描述。具体地,如图1A所示,引入组件60的延伸方向依次与上述第一通孔23的轴向和上述电磁屏蔽空间55的轴向一致。为了便于安装,引入组件60包括依次连接的第一引入分部61、第二引入分部62和第三引入分部63,其中,第一引入分部61内嵌在绝缘盘51中;第二引入分部62位于电磁屏蔽空间55中;第三引入分部63通过第一通孔23伸出至下电极机构的外部。
在本实施例中,如图4和图5所示,第一引入分部61包括射频套管611和第一绝缘件618,其中,射频套管611用作上述射频导电部件,以传导射频功率。射频套管611的上端与基座本体电连接,射频套管611的 下端延伸至绝缘盘51的下表面,且与第二引入分部62连接。在本实施例中,射频套管611为竖直设置的直筒,且在该直筒的上端形成有直径小于该直筒的连接筒612,并且对应地,在基座本体的下表面形成有凹槽,用作该连接筒612的接口,连接筒612内嵌在凹槽中,从而可以实现射频套管611与基座本体良好的电接触。直筒的下端延伸至绝缘盘51的下表面,且与第二引入分部62连接。
第一绝缘件618用作上述加热用导线501和静电吸附用导线502的载体,并使加热用导线501和静电吸附用导线502均与上述射频套管611电绝缘。第一绝缘件618设置在上述射频套管611中,该第一绝缘件618近似充满射频套管611的内部空间,以实现对加热用导线501和静电吸附用导线502的固定,同时使二者均与上述射频套管611电绝缘。具体地,第一绝缘件618包括内嵌在直筒中的中心部613和环绕设置在直筒的外周壁上的外环部614,中心部613的下表面为下接触面616,外环部614的上表面为上接触面615。上接触面615与基座本体的下表面相接触,下接触面616与第二引入分部62相接触,并且,在该第一绝缘件618中形成有多条第一导电通道17,每条第一导电通道17自上接触面615延伸至下接触面616,上述加热用导线501和静电吸附用导线502一一对应地穿过各个第一导电通道17。在中心部613中形成有第一通道14,在直筒的筒壁中形成第二通道15,在外环部614中形成有第三通道16,该第一通道14、第二通道15和第三通道16对接形成上述第一导电通道17。
在本实施例中,上述第一导电通道17被设置为:上述加热用导线501和静电吸附用导线502自上述下接触面616竖直向上延伸至中心部613中,并沿水平方向穿过直筒筒壁,并延伸至外环部614中,最后竖直向上自上接触面615延伸出去,并与基座本体中相应的接口连接。优选的,对应不同功能的第一部件25,多条第一导电通道17在第一绝缘件618中沿竖直方向分层设置,以避免不同的第一部件25相互干扰。进一步说,多条上述第一导电通道17在中心部613和外环部614中水平延伸的部分的高度不同,以实现分层布置。例如,针对上述加热用导线501和静电吸附用导线502,通过分层设置,可以减少输送交流电的上述加热用导线501对输送直流电的静电吸附用导线502的干扰。另外,根据静电吸附用导线502 和加热用导线501的供电电压的不同(通常,直流电压为2400V,交流电压为220V),可以使对应加热用导线501的第一导电通道设置在对应静电吸附用导线502的第一导电通道的下层,以使加热用导线501更靠近接地位置,以保证加热用导线501能够充分的与地绝缘隔离。另外,图4所示的多条第一导电通道17的布置方式满足如图9所示的形式:多条加热用导线501围绕中心部613的轴线对称分布;静电吸附用导线502为至少一条,且位于多条加热用导线501的内侧。
作为上述第一引入分部61的一个变形,如图10所示,上述第一引入分部61包括射频套管617和第一绝缘件618,其中,射频套管617为锥筒,该锥筒的上端直径大于锥筒的下端直径,即,锥筒的形状类似于“碗”状,以将第一绝缘件618容纳在其中。并且,锥筒的上端617a与基座本体电导通,并且锥筒的上端617a可以内嵌在基座本体中,以实现锥筒与基座本体的良好电接触。锥筒的下端617b延伸至绝缘盘51的下表面,且与第二引入分部62连接。第一绝缘件618内嵌在锥筒中,且与该锥筒的形状相吻合,即,也为“碗”状,以实现对加热用导线501和静电吸附用导线502的固定,同时使二者均与上述射频套管611电绝缘。设置在第一绝缘件618中的第一导电通道17的结构和布置方式与前述第一导电通道相同,在此不再赘述。
如图6A和图6B所示,第二引入分部62包括第一射频导管621和第二绝缘件622,其中,第一射频导管621用作射频导电部件,其上端与射频套管611的下端连接,具体连接方式如图6A和图6B所示,第一射频导管621的上端套设在射频套管611的下端外周壁上,二者可以通过螺钉固定连接。并且,在第一射频导管621的上端内周壁与射频套管611的下端外周壁之间设置有弹性导电片624,用以加强二者之间的电接触,从而实现良好的电导通。第一射频导管621呈圆弧状,且下端沿屏蔽套管53的圆弧形轴线延伸,并与第三引入分部63连接。
第二绝缘件622填充在第一射频导管621中,且与上述第一绝缘件相类似的,第二绝缘件622近似充满第一射频导管621的内部空间,以实现对加热用导线501和静电吸附用导线502的固定,同时使二者均与第一射频导管621电绝缘。而且,第二绝缘件622的第一端面与第一引入分部61 相对,第二绝缘件622的第二端面与第三引入分部63相对。并且,在第二绝缘件622中形成有多条第二导电通道18,该第二导电通道18沿第一射频导管621的轴线设置,并且第二导电通道18的一端延伸至第二绝缘件622的第一端面,另一端自上述第一端面延伸至第二端面;上述加热用导线501和静电吸附用导线502一一对应地穿过各个第二导电通道18,且多条第二导电通道的布置方式与图9中示出的第一导电通道的布置方式一致。
另外,上述加热用导线501和静电吸附用导线502在第二导电通道中的部分与在第一导电通道中的部分的连接方式具体为:如图6C所示,上述加热用导线501和静电吸附用导线502在第二导电通道中的部分的端部设置有插片623,与之相对应的,上述加热用导线501和静电吸附用导线502在第一导电通道中的部分的端部设置有插口(图中未示出),通过插片623和插口相配合,来实现上述加热用导线501和静电吸附用导线502在第二导电通道中的部分与在第一导电通道中的部分相互电导通。
优选的,上述屏蔽套管53的内径是第二引入分部62的外径的2~6倍,以使电磁屏蔽空间55足够宽,从而避免屏蔽套管53干涉第二引入分部62中的射频导电部件(即,第一射频导管621)。另外,优选的,第二引入分部62的外径的取值范围在15~50mm,以为布置不同功能的第一部件25提供足够的空间。上述第三引入分部63的外径可以与第二引入分部62的外径相同。
如图7和图8所示,第三引入分部63包括第二射频导管631和第三绝缘件632,其中,第二射频导管631用作射频导电部件,其一端与第二引入分部62连接,具体连接方式可以与图6C示出的第一射频导管621的上端与射频套管611的下端的连接方式相同。第二射频导管631的另一端沿上述第一通孔23的轴线水平延伸至下电极机构的外部。
第三绝缘件632设置在第二射频导管631中,且第三绝缘件632近似充满第二射频导管631的内部空间,以实现对加热用导线501和静电吸附用导线502的固定,同时使二者均与第二射频导管631电绝缘。该第三绝缘件632的第一端面与第二引入分部相对,即与上述第二绝缘件622的第二端面(朝向第二通孔23的一端)相对。并且,在第三绝缘件632中形 成有多条第三导电通道19,每条第三导电通道19沿第二射频导管631的轴线设置,并且第三导电通道19自第三绝缘件632的上述第一端面延伸至其第二端面。上述加热用导线501和静电吸附用导线502一一对应地穿过各个第三导电通道19,并自第三绝缘件632的第二端面伸出。另外,多条第三导电通道的布置方式与图9中示出的第一导电通道的布置方式一致。
另外,如图1A所示,第一屏蔽模组还包括第一绝缘环531,其设置在屏蔽套管53的内壁上,用于固定第二引入分部62,且使第二引入分部62与屏蔽套管53相隔离,从而保证第二引入分部62与屏蔽套管53之间电绝缘。该第一绝缘环531可以是闭合的环体,或者也可以由环绕屏蔽套管53的内壁间隔设置的多个分体。第二引入分部62穿过第一绝缘环531的环孔。在实际应用中,第一绝缘环531也可以为多个,且多个第一绝缘环531沿屏蔽套管53的轴向间隔设置。
与上述相类似的,第一屏蔽模组还包括第二绝缘环231,其设置在第二通孔23的内壁上,用于固定第三引入分部63,且使第二引入分部63与第一延伸部21相隔离。具体地,如图1A所示,第二绝缘环231为多个,且沿第二通孔23的轴向间隔设置,第三引入分部63依次穿过多个第二绝缘环231的环孔。当然,在实际应用中,第二绝缘环231也可以根据具体情况设定为一个。
综上所述,本公开提供的下电极机构,其通过将下电极腔形成相互隔离的电磁屏蔽空间和非电磁屏蔽空间,可以防止电磁屏蔽空间内的第一部件受到来自非电磁屏蔽空间内的第二部件的干扰,从而不仅可以避免因射频干扰导致的电场均匀性受到影响,而且借助电磁屏蔽空间还可以减少射频泄漏,从而可以提高射频稳定性。
本公开另一实施例还提供了一种反应腔室,请一并参阅图2、图11和图12,在反应腔室100的上方设置有射频线圈103,其通过匹配器104与射频电源(图中未示出)电连接,并且在反应腔室100内设置有下电极机构200,该下电极机构200采用了本公开上一实施例提供的下电极机构。

第二屏蔽腔54具有将第一部件25引入的开口。该开口包括用于引入射频导电部件的射频开口541、用于引入加热用导线501和静电吸附用导线502的导线开口542。由第一通孔23延伸出的第二射频导管631,通过第二屏蔽腔54上的射频开口541与位于第二屏蔽腔54外部的射频源连接。该射频源包括依次连接的匹配器4和射频电源(图中未示出)。第三绝缘件632第二端面伸出的加热用导线501和静电吸附用导线502,通过导线开口542与位于第二屏蔽腔54外部的电源连接。
在本实施例中,在第二射频导管631的对应第三绝缘件632的第二端面的一端设置有导电柱634,该导电柱634穿过射频开口541与匹配器4连接,具体的连接方式可以为:射频开口541位于与第三绝缘件632的上述第二端面相对的位置处。并且,在第二射频导管631的外周壁上设置有第四通道40,上述加热用导线501和静电吸附用导线502依次通过该第四通道40和导线开口542延伸出去,并与相应的电源连接。通过将上述导线开口542设置在第二射频导管631的外周壁上,可以避免上述加热用导线501和静电吸附用导线502与导电柱634干涉。
优选的,在反应腔室100的侧壁上设置有能够供下电极机构通过的通孔101,该通孔101的外侧设置有侧盖板102,下电极腔的腔体200与该侧盖板102连接。并且,在反应腔室100的底部还设置有水平导轨105和与之滑动连接的连接件,侧盖板与水平导轨105连接。侧盖板102能够向 反应腔室100的外侧移动,以使下电极机构整体移出反应腔室100。在需要对下电极机构200进行维修时,可以通过手动或自动控制等方式将下电极机构整体移出反应腔室100,从而为下电极机构200的维护提供方便。
