Description

基板配置支援治具及び基板の製造方法Substrate placement support jig and substrate manufacturing method
 本発明は、キャリアの基板保持孔に基板を保持して、基板の主表面を研磨するとき、キャリアの基板保持孔それぞれに複数の基板それぞれを配置するための基板配置支援治具、及びこの基板配置支援治具を用いて研磨を行う基板の製造方法に関する。 The present invention provides a substrate placement support jig for arranging a plurality of substrates in each of the substrate holding holes of the carrier when the substrate is held in the substrate holding holes of the carrier and the main surface of the substrate is polished, and the substrate. The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a substrate to be polished using an arrangement support jig.
 今日、パーソナルコンピュータ、DVD(Digital Versatile Disc)記録装置等には、データ記録のためにハードディスク装置(HDD:Hard Disk Drive)が内蔵されている。
 ハードディスク装置では、基板に磁性層が設けられた磁気ディスクが用いられ、磁気ディスクの面上を僅かに浮上させた磁気ヘッドで磁性層に磁気記録情報が記録され、あるいは読み取られる。ハードディスク装置では、記憶容量を増大させるために、磁気記録密度の増大が図られており、この磁気記録密度の増大を可能にするために、磁気ディスクの基板として用いる基板の主表面の表面凹凸は可能な限り小さくなっている。したがって、磁気ディスクに用いる基板の製造では、精度の高い研磨が行われる。
Today, personal computers, DVD (Digital Versatile Disc) recording devices, and the like have a built-in hard disk drive (HDD) for data recording.
In the hard disk device, a magnetic disk provided with a magnetic layer on the substrate is used, and magnetic recording information is recorded or read on the magnetic layer by a magnetic head slightly levitated on the surface of the magnetic disk. In the hard disk device, the magnetic recording density is increased in order to increase the storage capacity, and in order to enable the increase in the magnetic recording density, the surface unevenness of the main surface of the substrate used as the substrate of the magnetic disk is It is as small as possible. Therefore, in the manufacture of the substrate used for the magnetic disk, highly accurate polishing is performed.
 研磨装置では、例えば、基板を、研磨パッドを備えた上定盤と下定盤とにより挟んで上定盤と下定盤を回転させながら研磨パッドで基板の主表面を研磨する。その際、研磨液が研磨パッドと基板の主表面の間に供給される。研磨液には、セリアやコロイダルシリカ等の粒径の細かい研磨砥粒を含む。研磨液は、基板の主表面上に供給される。上定盤と下定盤とにより挟まれた基板は、上定盤と下定盤との間で、自転しながら上定盤の回転中心軸の周りに公転運動するように移動することにより、基板の主表面が研磨される。 In the polishing device, for example, the substrate is sandwiched between an upper surface plate and a lower surface plate provided with a polishing pad, and the main surface of the substrate is polished by the polishing pad while rotating the upper surface plate and the lower surface plate. At that time, the polishing liquid is supplied between the polishing pad and the main surface of the substrate. The polishing liquid contains abrasive grains having a fine particle size such as ceria and colloidal silica. The polishing liquid is supplied on the main surface of the substrate. The substrate sandwiched between the upper surface plate and the lower surface plate moves between the upper surface plate and the lower surface plate so as to revolve around the rotation center axis of the upper surface plate while rotating. The main surface is polished.
 研磨装置では、複数、例えば6個の保持孔が設けられた平板状のキャリアの保持孔のそれぞれに基板を保持させて、研磨パッドが表面に設けられた上定盤及び下定盤でキャリアを挟み、上定盤及び下定盤との間に研磨液を供給しながら、キャリアと、上定盤及び下定盤とを相対的に移動させることにより基板の主表面を研磨する。すなわち、1つのキャリアに複数の基板を配置し、さらに、上定盤と下定盤の間に基板を保持した数枚のキャリアを挟んで同時に研磨を行うので、すべてのキャリアの基板保持孔1つ1つに基板を配置するための準備の時間は長い。 In the polishing apparatus, the substrate is held in each of the holding holes of a flat plate-shaped carrier provided with a plurality of holding holes, for example, six holding holes, and the carrier is sandwiched between the upper surface plate and the lower surface plate provided with the polishing pad on the surface. The main surface of the substrate is polished by relatively moving the carrier and the upper surface plate and the lower surface plate while supplying the polishing liquid between the upper surface plate and the lower surface plate. That is, since a plurality of substrates are arranged on one carrier and several carriers holding the substrates are sandwiched between the upper surface plate and the lower surface plate and polished at the same time, one substrate holding hole of all the carriers is performed. The preparation time for arranging the substrates in one is long.
 これに対して、両面研磨装置の上定盤と下定盤との間に配されたキャリアに保持される基板等の被研磨体を研磨する研磨工程において、複数の基板を効率良く装填作業するための被研磨体装填治具が提案されている(特許文献1)。
 被研磨体装填治具は、上定盤と下定盤との間に配されたキャリアに保持される基板等の被研磨体を研磨する研磨工程で、キャリアに設けられた複数の保持孔の夫々に複数の被研磨体を同時に装填する装置である。被研磨体装填治具は、キャリアの複数の保持孔に対向するように配置された複数の挿入孔を有する第1の治具と、この第1の治具の上面に重ねられ、キャリアの複数の保持孔に装填される複数の被研磨体を待機させるための複数の待機孔を有する第2の治具と、を備える。第1の治具及び第2の治具は、夫々の接触面が互いに水平方向にスライド可能に支持されている。第1の治具と第2の治具の回転中心を互いに一致させ、待機孔と挿入孔とは円形状の回転中心に対する方位方向をずらして、第2の治具を第1の治具の上面に接するように重ねる。このとき、第2の治具の待機孔には、被研磨体を配置しておく。第2の治具を回転中心の周りにスライドさせることにより、待機孔が挿入孔と一致したとき、第2の治具に配置した複数の被研磨体のそれぞれが、挿入孔を通して第1の治具の下部にあるキャリアの保持孔に同時に落下してセットされる。 
On the other hand, in order to efficiently load a plurality of substrates in a polishing process for polishing an object to be polished such as a substrate held by a carrier arranged between an upper surface plate and a lower surface plate of a double-sided polishing apparatus. A jig for loading a body to be polished has been proposed (Patent Document 1).
The object to be polished loading jig is a polishing process for polishing an object to be polished such as a substrate held by a carrier arranged between an upper surface plate and a lower surface plate, and each of a plurality of holding holes provided in the carrier is used. It is a device for simultaneously loading a plurality of objects to be polished. The body loading jig to be polished includes a first jig having a plurality of insertion holes arranged so as to face a plurality of holding holes of the carrier, and a plurality of carriers stacked on the upper surface of the first jig. A second jig having a plurality of waiting holes for making the plurality of objects to be polished wait to be loaded in the holding holes of the above is provided. In the first jig and the second jig, the contact surfaces of the first jig and the second jig are supported so as to be slidable in the horizontal direction. The rotation centers of the first jig and the second jig are aligned with each other, the standby hole and the insertion hole are displaced in the directional direction with respect to the circular rotation center, and the second jig is used as the first jig. Stack so that it touches the top surface. At this time, the object to be polished is arranged in the waiting hole of the second jig. By sliding the second jig around the center of rotation, when the standby hole coincides with the insertion hole, each of the plurality of objects to be polished placed on the second jig is first cured through the insertion hole. It is set by dropping into the holding hole of the carrier at the bottom of the jig at the same time.

 この被研磨体装填治具では、第2の治具を回転中心の周りにスライドさせるとき、第2の治具の待機孔に配置された被研磨体、例えば基板の主表面は、第1の治具の表面と接触しながら擦れるので、第1の治具を基板の表面に傷を与えにくい樹脂材を用いるとしても、研磨体の表面に傷が生じることを防止することはできないといった問題が生じる。特に、磁気ディスク用基板の主表面のように、基板の主表面の表面凹凸は可能な限り小さくなることが好ましいため、研磨前に、主表面に傷を発生させることは好ましくない。 In this object to be polished loading jig, when the second jig is slid around the center of rotation, the object to be polished, for example, the main surface of the substrate, which is arranged in the waiting hole of the second jig, is the first. Since it rubs while contacting the surface of the jig, even if the first jig uses a resin material that does not easily damage the surface of the substrate, there is a problem that it is not possible to prevent the surface of the abrasive body from being scratched. Occurs. In particular, it is preferable that the surface unevenness of the main surface of the substrate is as small as possible, such as the main surface of the substrate for a magnetic disk, and therefore it is not preferable to generate scratches on the main surface before polishing.
 そこで、本発明は、上記被研磨体装填治具とは異なる構成により、基板の主表面に傷を生じさせることなく、基板の外周端部に傷を発生させることなく、効率よくキャリアの保持孔に基板を配置することができる基板配置支援治具、及びこの治具を用いて基板の研磨を行う研磨処理を含む基板の製造方法を提供することを目的とする。 Therefore, the present invention has a configuration different from that of the jig for loading the object to be polished, so that the main surface of the substrate is not scratched and the outer peripheral edge of the substrate is not scratched. It is an object of the present invention to provide a substrate arrangement support jig capable of arranging a substrate in a field, and a method for manufacturing a substrate including a polishing process for polishing the substrate using the jig.

 以下、一実施形態の基板配置支援治具及び基板の製造方法について、図面を参照しながら説明する。 Hereinafter, the substrate placement support jig of one embodiment and the manufacturing method of the substrate will be described with reference to the drawings.
(基板配置支援治具)
 図1は、一実施形態の基板配置支援治具の概略の構成を示す図である。
 基板配置支援治具10は、基板の主表面を研磨するために、キャリア12に設けられた複数の基板保持孔それぞれに基板を配置するための配置支援治具である。本明細書でいう研磨は、研削後の基板の表面粗さを小さくするために表面を磨く“研磨”の他に、基板の寸法や形状を変更するために粗く削る加工、すなわち“研削(ラッピング)”も含む。“研削”後の基板の表面粗さを小さくするために表面を磨く加工を、研削と区別して“研磨”という場合には、基板配置支援治具10は、基板の主表面を“研削”あるいは“研磨”をするために、キャリア12に設けられた複数の基板保持孔それぞれに基板を配置するための配置支援治具である。換言すれば、基板配置支援治具10は、上記のように、キャリア12を用いて基板の主表面を加工する場合であれば、加工方法によらず用いることができる。
 図1に示すように、基板配置支援治具10は、板状の治具本体16を備える。治具本体16には、キャリア12の複数の基板保持孔14の位置に対応して、基板Sを配置可能な複数の待機孔18が設けられている。キャリア12には、6個の基板保持孔14が設けられ、これに対応して、治具本体16にも、待機孔18が6個、同じ位置に設けられている。
 図1に示す例では、キャリア12には、6個の基板保持孔14が設けられているが、基板保持孔14の数は、6に制限されず、複数であればよい。基板保持孔14の数は5以上であることが好ましく、10以上であることがより好ましい。
 なお、図1に示すキャリア12の外周には、図示されないが、後述するように下定盤の内歯車(図5に示す歯車62)と係合する歯部が設けられる。
(Board placement support jig)
FIG. 1 is a diagram showing a schematic configuration of a substrate arrangement support jig of one embodiment.
The substrate placement support jig 10 is a placement support jig for arranging a substrate in each of a plurality of substrate holding holes provided in the carrier 12 in order to polish the main surface of the substrate. Polishing referred to in the present specification is not only "polishing" in which the surface is polished to reduce the surface roughness of the substrate after grinding, but also rough grinding in order to change the dimensions and shape of the substrate, that is, "grinding (wrapping)". ) ”Is also included. When the process of polishing the surface to reduce the surface roughness of the substrate after "grinding" is referred to as "polishing" to distinguish it from grinding, the substrate placement support jig 10 "grinds" or "grinds" the main surface of the substrate. It is an arrangement support jig for arranging a substrate in each of a plurality of substrate holding holes provided in the carrier 12 for "polishing". In other words, the substrate arrangement support jig 10 can be used regardless of the processing method as long as the main surface of the substrate is processed by using the carrier 12 as described above.
As shown in FIG. 1, the substrate arrangement support jig 10 includes a plate-shaped jig main body 16. The jig main body 16 is provided with a plurality of standby holes 18 on which the substrate S can be arranged, corresponding to the positions of the plurality of substrate holding holes 14 of the carrier 12. The carrier 12 is provided with six substrate holding holes 14, and correspondingly, the jig main body 16 is also provided with six standby holes 18 at the same positions.
In the example shown in FIG. 1, the carrier 12 is provided with six substrate holding holes 14, but the number of substrate holding holes 14 is not limited to six and may be a plurality. The number of substrate holding holes 14 is preferably 5 or more, and more preferably 10 or more.
Although not shown, a tooth portion that engages with the internal gear (gear 62 shown in FIG. 5) of the lower platen is provided on the outer periphery of the carrier 12 shown in FIG.
 治具本体16の待機孔18それぞれの縁の少なくとも1箇所には、縁から突出して、基板Sの外周端と接触して基板Sを保持する爪部が設けられている。この爪部が前進して待機孔それぞれに基板Sを保持させ、治具本体16を、下定盤の上に載せたキャリア12の上部に移動した状態で、爪部を後退させることにより、基板Sを待機孔18それぞれから開放して落下させて下方にあるキャリア12の基板保持孔14のそれぞれに配置するために、爪部が、待機孔18の領域に出入り自在に前進あるいは後退する。爪部が基板Sを保持する場合に爪部が基板Sの外周端と接触するとは、爪部が外周端の少なくとも一部と接触することを意味する。外周端には、端面の他に、端面と主表面との境界部(面取り面が端面に形成されている場合は、面取り面と主表面との境界部)も含まれる。
 爪部は、基板Sの外周端の少なくとも一部と接触することにより基板Sを保持するように突出する形状であればよく、必ずしも爪型の形状を有さなくてもよい。
At least one edge of each of the standby holes 18 of the jig body 16 is provided with a claw portion that protrudes from the edge and comes into contact with the outer peripheral edge of the substrate S to hold the substrate S. The claws move forward to hold the substrate S in each of the standby holes, and the substrate S is retracted while the jig body 16 is moved to the upper part of the carrier 12 placed on the lower platen. Is opened from each of the waiting holes 18 and dropped to be arranged in each of the substrate holding holes 14 of the carrier 12 below, so that the claw portion moves forward or backward freely in and out of the area of the waiting holes 18. When the claw portion holds the substrate S, the contact of the claw portion with the outer peripheral end of the substrate S means that the claw portion contacts at least a part of the outer peripheral end. In addition to the end face, the outer peripheral end also includes a boundary portion between the end face and the main surface (when the chamfered surface is formed on the end face, the boundary portion between the chamfered surface and the main surface).
The claw portion may have a shape that protrudes so as to hold the substrate S by coming into contact with at least a part of the outer peripheral end of the substrate S, and does not necessarily have a claw-shaped shape.
 図2は、一実施形態である、基板Sを待機孔18に保持するための爪部を説明する図である。図2に示す爪部20は、基板Sの主表面と接触せず、基板Sの外周端に設けられた面取り面22と接触するように設けられた傾斜面24を有する。図2に示すように、傾斜面24に面取り面22(面取り面22と主表面との境界部を含む)が接触して爪部20それぞれが基板Sを下方から支持することにより、基板Sは待機孔18それぞれに保持される。爪部20は、図1に示される操作部26を操作者が押圧するあるいは操作部26の押圧を緩めることにより、待機孔18の領域に出入り自在に前進あるいは後退する。
 面取り面22は、基板Sの主表面に略直交する(略直交する角度は、89~91度をいう)側壁面25(図3参照)と主表面の間に介在する面である。面取り面22は、主表面と滑らかに接続されて、側壁面25に向かって延びている。
FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating a claw portion for holding the substrate S in the standby hole 18, which is an embodiment. The claw portion 20 shown in FIG. 2 has an inclined surface 24 provided so as not to contact the main surface of the substrate S but to contact the chamfered surface 22 provided at the outer peripheral end of the substrate S. As shown in FIG. 2, the chamfered surface 22 (including the boundary portion between the chamfered surface 22 and the main surface) comes into contact with the inclined surface 24, and each of the claw portions 20 supports the substrate S from below, whereby the substrate S is formed. It is held in each of the waiting holes 18. The claw portion 20 moves forward or backward freely in and out of the area of the standby hole 18 by the operator pressing the operating portion 26 shown in FIG. 1 or releasing the pressing of the operating portion 26.
The chamfered surface 22 is a surface interposed between the side wall surface 25 (see FIG. 3) substantially orthogonal to the main surface of the substrate S (the angle substantially orthogonal is 89 to 91 degrees) and the main surface. The chamfered surface 22 is smoothly connected to the main surface and extends toward the side wall surface 25.
 爪部20の前進、後退の機構は、特に制限されない。例えば、爪部20は、ばね部材で付勢されて待機孔18に対して通常突出状態にあり、操作部26を押圧することにより、ばね部材の付勢力に打ち勝って爪部20を後退させるばね部材を利用した機構を用いることができる。また、待機孔18それぞれの内周に沿って回転移動するギアを設け、このギアが回転移動することにより、爪部20に接続したカム機構がギアの動きによって動作することにより、爪部20が前進あるいは後退するカム機構を利用した機構を用いることができる。爪部20は、待機孔18それぞれの周上の2つ以上の場所に設けられる。これにより、基板Sを安定して待機孔18に保持させることができる。
 爪部20の傾斜面24は、面取り面22を下方から支持するだけであり、基板Sと接する領域は少ないので、面取り面22を傷つけることは少ない。
 なお、爪部20の数は特に限定されないが、爪部20の数が4つ以上になると装置構成が複雑になるので、爪部20の数は2つ又は3つであることが好ましい。爪部20を2つ又は3つ設ける場合は、待機孔18の周上においてそれぞれ約180度、約120度毎に爪部20設けることが好ましい。
The mechanism for advancing and retreating the claw portion 20 is not particularly limited. For example, the claw portion 20 is urged by a spring member and is normally in a protruding state with respect to the standby hole 18, and by pressing the operation portion 26, the spring that overcomes the urging force of the spring member and retracts the claw portion 20. A mechanism using a member can be used. Further, a gear that rotates and moves along the inner circumference of each of the standby holes 18 is provided, and when this gear rotates and moves, the cam mechanism connected to the claw portion 20 operates by the movement of the gear, so that the claw portion 20 moves. A mechanism using a cam mechanism that moves forward or backward can be used. The claws 20 are provided at two or more locations on the circumference of each of the standby holes 18. As a result, the substrate S can be stably held in the standby hole 18.
The inclined surface 24 of the claw portion 20 only supports the chamfered surface 22 from below, and since the region in contact with the substrate S is small, the chamfered surface 22 is less likely to be damaged.
The number of claws 20 is not particularly limited, but the number of claws 20 is preferably two or three because the device configuration becomes complicated when the number of claws 20 is four or more. When two or three claw portions 20 are provided, it is preferable to provide the claw portions 20 at intervals of about 180 degrees and about 120 degrees, respectively, on the circumference of the standby hole 18.
 図3は、他の一実施形態である、基板Sを待機孔18に保持するための爪部を説明する図である。
 図3に示す爪部20は、基板Sの外周端に設けられた基板Sの主表面と直交する側壁面25に当接する、待機孔18それぞれの縁から待機孔18の内側に向かって突出する突起部28を有する。この突起部28が側壁面25に対して直交する方向から当接して基板Sを待機孔18それぞれの壁(突起部28と反対側にある壁)に押圧することにより、基板Sは待機孔18それぞれに摩擦力により保持される。爪部20の突起部28は、側壁面25を側方から押さえるが、突起部28が基板Sと接する領域は少ないので、側壁面25を傷つけることは少ない。
 図3における爪部20の前進、後退の機構も、上述したように特に制限されず、ばね部材を利用した機構やカム機構を利用した機構を用いることができる。
FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating a claw portion for holding the substrate S in the standby hole 18, which is another embodiment.
The claw portion 20 shown in FIG. 3 projects from the edge of each of the standby holes 18 toward the inside of the standby holes 18 so as to abut on the side wall surface 25 provided at the outer peripheral end of the substrate S and orthogonal to the main surface of the substrate S. It has a protrusion 28. The protrusion 28 abuts on the side wall surface 25 from a direction orthogonal to the side wall surface 25 and presses the substrate S against the walls of the standby holes 18 (walls on the opposite side of the protrusion 28) so that the substrate S is formed by the standby holes 18. Each is held by frictional force. The protrusion 28 of the claw portion 20 presses the side wall surface 25 from the side, but since the region where the protrusion 28 is in contact with the substrate S is small, the side wall surface 25 is less likely to be damaged.
The mechanism for advancing and retreating the claw portion 20 in FIG. 3 is not particularly limited as described above, and a mechanism using a spring member or a mechanism using a cam mechanism can be used.
 このような爪部20は後退することにより、図4に示すように、待機孔18に保持されていた基板Sは、待機孔18から落下して、下方の下定盤に載せられたキャリア12の基板保持孔14に配置することができる。図4は、一実施形態の基板配置支援治具において、基板Sが待機孔18から離脱する状態を説明する図である。
 この場合、待機孔18と基板保持孔14は鉛直方向に正しく位置合わせしていなければ確実に基板Sを基板保持孔14に配置することはできない。このため、一実施形態によれば、治具本体16には位置合わせ部が設けられ、キャリア12に設けられた位置合わせ部と係止することができる。これにより、治具本体16は、キャリア12に対して適切な位置に配することができる。治具本体16の位置合わせ部は、例えば、治具本体16からキャリア12に向かって突出した突起あるいは孔であり、キャリア12の位置合わせ部は、上記突起を係止することができる、例えば孔または治具本体16に向かって突出した突起である。
As the claw portion 20 retracts, as shown in FIG. 4, the substrate S held in the standby hole 18 falls from the standby hole 18 and is placed on the lower platen of the carrier 12. It can be arranged in the substrate holding hole 14. FIG. 4 is a diagram illustrating a state in which the substrate S is separated from the standby hole 18 in the substrate arrangement support jig of one embodiment.
In this case, the substrate S cannot be reliably arranged in the substrate holding hole 14 unless the standby hole 18 and the substrate holding hole 14 are correctly aligned in the vertical direction. Therefore, according to one embodiment, the jig main body 16 is provided with an alignment portion, and can be locked with the alignment portion provided on the carrier 12. As a result, the jig body 16 can be arranged at an appropriate position with respect to the carrier 12. The alignment portion of the jig body 16 is, for example, a protrusion or a hole protruding from the jig body 16 toward the carrier 12, and the alignment portion of the carrier 12 can lock the protrusion, for example, a hole. Alternatively, it is a protrusion protruding toward the jig body 16.
 このように、爪部20は、基板Sを待機孔18それぞれから開放して落下させて下方にあるキャリア12の基板保持孔14のそれぞれに配置するために、爪部20が、待機孔18の領域に出入り自在に前進あるいは後退する機構になっているので、基板Sの主表面に傷を生じさせることなく、基板Sの外周端部に傷を発生させることなく、効率よくキャリア12の基板保持孔14に基板Sを配置することができる。 In this way, in order to open the substrate S from each of the standby holes 18 and drop the substrate S and arrange the substrate S in each of the substrate holding holes 14 of the carrier 12 below, the claw portion 20 is formed in the standby holes 18. Since the mechanism is such that it can move forward or backward freely in and out of the region, it efficiently holds the carrier 12 on the substrate without causing scratches on the main surface of the substrate S and without causing scratches on the outer peripheral end of the substrate S. The substrate S can be arranged in the hole 14.
 待機孔18それぞれに設けられた爪部20は同時に後退するように構成されていることが、基板Sを同時にキャリア12の基板保持孔14に配置することができるので、好ましい。 It is preferable that the claw portions 20 provided in each of the standby holes 18 are configured to retract at the same time because the substrate S can be simultaneously arranged in the substrate holding holes 14 of the carrier 12.
 このような基板配置支援治具10は、基板Sをキャリア12の基板保持孔14に保持した状態で研磨処理を行う場合に好適に用いることができる。特に、研磨装置による研磨処理開始前、下定盤に対して上定盤が上方に移動してできる制限された空間を作業スペースとして基板Sを基板保持孔14に配置するセット作業を行うので、制限された空間において効率よく基板Sのセット作業を行うために、基板配置支援治具10を用いることが好ましい。したがって、一実施形態では、複数の基板保持孔14が設けられたキャリア12の基板保持孔14のそれぞれに基板Sを保持した状態で基板Sの主表面を研磨する研磨処理を含む基板Sの製造方法に、基板配置支援治具10が用いられる。 すなわち、基板の製造方法では、上述した基板配置支援治具10の待機孔18それぞれに、爪部20を待機孔18の縁から突出するように前進させて基板Sを保持した状態で、下定盤の上に配置したキャリア12の上方の位置で、治具本体16の爪部20を後退させることにより、基板Sを待機孔18から開放して落下させる。これにより、下方にあるキャリア12の基板保持孔14のそれぞれに基板Sは配置される。この後、キャリア12に配置された基板Sを、上定盤及び下定盤で挟んで相対移動させることにより、基板Sを研磨する。
治具本体16を、キャリア12の上方の位置に配置する場合、例えば、キャリア12の表面(主表面)と治具本体16の表面(主表面)とが接するように治具本体16をキャリア12に重ねてもよいし、キャリア12の表面(主表面)から治具本体16の表面(主表面)が少し離れるように治具本体16を配置してもよい。
Such a substrate arrangement support jig 10 can be suitably used when the polishing process is performed while the substrate S is held in the substrate holding holes 14 of the carrier 12. In particular, before the start of the polishing process by the polishing apparatus, the setting work is performed in which the substrate S is arranged in the substrate holding hole 14 with the restricted space created by the upper surface plate moving upward with respect to the lower surface plate as a work space. It is preferable to use the substrate arrangement support jig 10 in order to efficiently set the substrate S in the space provided. Therefore, in one embodiment, the manufacture of the substrate S includes a polishing process for polishing the main surface of the substrate S while holding the substrate S in each of the substrate holding holes 14 of the carrier 12 provided with the plurality of substrate holding holes 14. As the method, the substrate placement support jig 10 is used. That is, in the method of manufacturing a substrate, the lower platen is held in a state where the claw portion 20 is advanced so as to protrude from the edge of the standby hole 18 in each of the standby holes 18 of the substrate arrangement support jig 10 described above to hold the substrate S. By retracting the claw portion 20 of the jig body 16 at a position above the carrier 12 arranged on the substrate S, the substrate S is opened from the standby hole 18 and dropped. As a result, the substrate S is arranged in each of the substrate holding holes 14 of the carrier 12 below. After that, the substrate S arranged on the carrier 12 is sandwiched between the upper surface plate and the lower surface plate and moved relative to each other to polish the substrate S.
When the jig body 16 is arranged at a position above the carrier 12, for example, the jig body 16 is placed in contact with the surface (main surface) of the carrier 12 and the surface (main surface) of the jig body 16. The jig body 16 may be arranged so that the surface (main surface) of the jig body 16 is slightly separated from the surface (main surface) of the carrier 12.
(研磨装置)
 図5及び図6を参照して研磨装置の構成をさらに具体的に説明する。図5,6は、一実施形態の研磨処理に用いる研磨装置の構成を示す図である。
 研磨装置において、下定盤60の上面および上定盤40の下面には、研磨パッド30が貼り付けられている。図5では、研磨パッド30はシート状に記されている。研磨パッド30には、例えば、発泡ウレタン樹脂等を用いることができる。
(Abrasive device)
The configuration of the polishing apparatus will be described more specifically with reference to FIGS. 5 and 6. 5 and 6 are diagrams showing the configuration of a polishing apparatus used for the polishing process of one embodiment.
In the polishing apparatus, polishing pads 30 are attached to the upper surface of the lower surface plate 60 and the lower surface of the upper surface plate 40. In FIG. 5, the polishing pad 30 is written in the form of a sheet. For the polishing pad 30, for example, urethane foam resin or the like can be used.
 研磨装置による研磨対象の基板Sの素材や製造方法は、特に制限されない。基板Sの素材は、例えばガラスやアルミニウム合金である。また、これらの表面にNiP(ニッケルリン)合金の層を有していてもよい。基板Sが磁気ディスク用基板である場合、基板Sのサイズは、例えば、公称直径3.5インチや2.5インチの磁気ディスク用基板のサイズである。基板Sが公称直径3.5インチの磁気ディスク用基板の場合、例えば、外径は、94mm~98mmであり、内径は約25mmである。基板Sが公称直径2.5インチの磁気ディスク用基板の場合、例えば、外径は、56mm~68mmであり、内径は約20mmである。基板Sの板厚は、例えば0.20mm~1.3mm、好ましくは0.30mm~0.7mmである。
 基板Sは、ガラス板の場合、例えば、大きなシートガラスに対してスクライビング及びカッティングを行って円盤形状のガラス板を形成する。すなわち、スクライバを用いてガラス板に切り欠き線を形成し、加熱等によって切り欠き線に沿ってクラックを発生させて割断させる方法が用いられる。
 また、基板Sがガラス板の場合、例えば、大きなガラス板からレーザー光を用いて、基板Sのサイズに比べてやや大きめの円板形状のガラス板を形成してもよい。また、フッ酸等のエッチング液を用いたウェットエッチングにより円板形状のガラス板を形成してもよい。
 ガラスブランクを切り出す前の大きなシートガラスは、例えば、フローティング法あるいはダウンドロー法を用いて作製された一定の板厚のガラス板である。あるいは、ガラスの塊を、金型を用いてプレス成形した基板であってもよい。
 さらに、円板状のガラスブランクに、同心円の円孔をあけるために、スクライバを用いて円孔をあける。スクライバを用いて円孔をあける代わりに、レーザー光の照射により、あるいはエッチングにより、円孔をあけてもよい。こうして得られた円盤形状の基板Sの端面(外周端部の端面及び内周端部の端面)に面取り面22を形成するために、総型砥石による形状加工が行われる。総型砥石による形状加工の代わりにレーザー光Lによる形状加工を用いてもよい。
The material and manufacturing method of the substrate S to be polished by the polishing device are not particularly limited. The material of the substrate S is, for example, glass or an aluminum alloy. Further, a layer of NiP (nickel phosphorus) alloy may be provided on these surfaces. When the substrate S is a substrate for a magnetic disk, the size of the substrate S is, for example, the size of a substrate for a magnetic disk having a nominal diameter of 3.5 inches or 2.5 inches. When the substrate S is a substrate for a magnetic disk having a nominal diameter of 3.5 inches, for example, the outer diameter is 94 mm to 98 mm and the inner diameter is about 25 mm. When the substrate S is a substrate for a magnetic disk having a nominal diameter of 2.5 inches, for example, the outer diameter is 56 mm to 68 mm, and the inner diameter is about 20 mm. The plate thickness of the substrate S is, for example, 0.20 mm to 1.3 mm, preferably 0.30 mm to 0.7 mm.
In the case of a glass plate, for example, the substrate S is scribed and cut on a large sheet glass to form a disk-shaped glass plate. That is, a method is used in which a notch line is formed on a glass plate using a scriber, and cracks are generated along the notch line by heating or the like to cut the glass plate.
When the substrate S is a glass plate, for example, a laser beam may be used from a large glass plate to form a disk-shaped glass plate slightly larger than the size of the substrate S. Further, a disk-shaped glass plate may be formed by wet etching using an etching solution such as hydrofluoric acid.
The large sheet glass before cutting out the glass blank is, for example, a glass plate having a constant plate thickness produced by using a floating method or a down draw method. Alternatively, the glass block may be a substrate press-molded using a mold.
Further, in order to make concentric circular holes in the disk-shaped glass blank, a circular hole is made using a scriber. Instead of making a circular hole using a scriber, the circular hole may be made by irradiation with a laser beam or by etching. In order to form the chamfered surface 22 on the end surface (the end surface of the outer peripheral end portion and the end surface of the inner peripheral end portion) of the disk-shaped substrate S thus obtained, shape processing is performed with a full-type grindstone. Instead of the shape processing by the total type grindstone, the shape processing by the laser beam L may be used.
 キャリア12は、円盤状の基板Sを上定盤40と下定盤60で挟んで基板Sの主表面を研磨処理する際に、基板Sを保持するための基板保持孔14を有する。キャリア12は、外周部に設けられて太陽歯車61及び内歯車62に噛合する歯部31と、基板Sを収容し保持するための複数の基板保持孔14とを有する。太陽歯車61、外縁に設けられた内歯車62および円盤状のキャリア12は全体として、中心軸CTR(図6参照)を中心とする遊星歯車機構を構成する。円盤状のキャリア12は、研磨装置内側で太陽歯車61に噛合し、かつ研磨装置外側で内歯車62に噛合するとともに、基板Sを複数収容し保持する。下定盤60上では、キャリア12が遊星歯車として自転しながら公転し、基板Sと下定盤60とが相対的に移動させられる。例えば、太陽歯車61が反時計回りの方向に回転すれば、キャリア12は時計回りの方向に回転し、内歯車62は反時計回りの方向に回転する。その結果、下定盤60と基板Sの間に相対運動が生じる。同様にして、基板Sと上定盤40とを相対的に移動させる。 The carrier 12 has a substrate holding hole 14 for holding the substrate S when the disk-shaped substrate S is sandwiched between the upper surface plate 40 and the lower surface plate 60 and the main surface of the substrate S is polished. The carrier 12 has a tooth portion 31 provided on the outer peripheral portion and meshing with the sun gear 61 and the internal gear 62, and a plurality of substrate holding holes 14 for accommodating and holding the substrate S. The sun gear 61, the internal gear 62 provided on the outer edge, and the disk-shaped carrier 12 together constitute a planetary gear mechanism centered on the central axis CTR (see FIG. 6). The disk-shaped carrier 12 meshes with the sun gear 61 inside the polishing device and meshes with the internal gear 62 outside the polishing device, and accommodates and holds a plurality of substrates S. On the lower platen 60, the carrier 12 revolves while rotating as a planetary gear, and the substrate S and the lower platen 60 are relatively moved. For example, if the sun gear 61 rotates in the counterclockwise direction, the carrier 12 rotates in the clockwise direction and the internal gear 62 rotates in the counterclockwise direction. As a result, a relative motion occurs between the lower platen 60 and the substrate S. In the same manner, the substrate S and the upper surface plate 40 are relatively moved.
 上記相対運動の動作中には、上定盤40がキャリア12に保持された基板Sに対して(つまり、鉛直方向に)所定の圧力で押圧し、これにより基板Sに対して研磨パッド30が押圧される。また、図6に示すように、ポンプ(不図示)によって研磨スラリが、供給タンク71から1または複数の配管72を経由して基板Sと研磨パッド30との間に供給される。
 以上の研磨装置を用いて基板Sの主表面が研磨される。
During the operation of the relative motion, the upper surface plate 40 presses the substrate S held by the carrier 12 with a predetermined pressure (that is, in the vertical direction), whereby the polishing pad 30 presses against the substrate S. Be pressed. Further, as shown in FIG. 6, a polishing slurry is supplied from the supply tank 71 between the substrate S and the polishing pad 30 via one or a plurality of pipes 72 by a pump (not shown).
The main surface of the substrate S is polished using the above polishing device.
 基板Sの研磨処理は、一実施形態によれば、第1研磨及び第2研磨を含む。
 第1研磨では、基板Sの外側端面を、上述の両面研磨装置のキャリア12に設けられた基板保持孔14内に保持しながら基板Sの両側の主表面の研磨が行われる。第1研磨は、微小な表面凹凸(マイクロウェービネス、粗さ)の調整を目的とする。
 第1研磨処理に用いる遊離砥粒として、例えば、酸化セリウム、あるいはジルコニア等の砥粒が用いられる。研磨砥粒の大きさは、平均粒径(D50)で例えば、0.5~3μmの範囲内である。
According to one embodiment, the polishing process of the substrate S includes a first polishing and a second polishing.
In the first polishing, the main surfaces on both sides of the substrate S are polished while holding the outer end faces of the substrate S in the substrate holding holes 14 provided in the carrier 12 of the double-sided polishing apparatus described above. The purpose of the first polishing is to adjust minute surface irregularities (microwaveness, roughness).
As the free abrasive grains used in the first polishing treatment, for example, abrasive grains such as cerium oxide or zirconia are used. The size of the abrasive grains is, for example, in the range of 0.5 to 3 μm in terms of average particle size (D50).
 基板Sがガラス板である場合、第1研磨後、化学強化してもよい。この場合、化学強化液として、例えば硝酸カリウムと硝酸ナトリウムの混合熔融液等を用い、ガラス板を化学強化液中に浸漬する。これにより、イオン交換によってガラス板の表面に圧縮応力層を形成することができる。 When the substrate S is a glass plate, it may be chemically strengthened after the first polishing. In this case, for example, a mixed melt of potassium nitrate and sodium nitrate is used as the chemical strengthening liquid, and the glass plate is immersed in the chemical strengthening liquid. As a result, a compressive stress layer can be formed on the surface of the glass plate by ion exchange.
 次に、基板Sに第2研磨が施される。第2研磨処理は、上述の両面研磨装置のキャリア12に設けられた基板保持孔14内に保持しながら基板Sの両側の主表面の研磨が行われる。第2研磨処理では、第1研磨処理に対して、遊離砥粒の種類及び粒子サイズが異なり、樹脂ポリッシャの硬度が異なる。樹脂ポリッシャの硬度は第1研磨処理時よりも小さいことが好ましい。例えばコロイダルシリカを遊離砥粒として含む研磨液が両面研磨装置の研磨パッドとガラス板の主表面との間に供給され、ガラス板の主表面が研磨される。第2研磨に用いる研磨砥粒の大きさは、平均粒径(D50)で、例えば5~50nmの範囲内であることが好ましい。
 なお、円盤状の基板Sは、第1研磨を行う前に、“研削”処理を行ってもよい。“研削”処理において研磨装置と同様のキャリアを含む構成の装置を用いる場合、基板配置支援治具10を用いることができる。また、上記の実施形態では2回の研磨処理を行ったが、研磨処理は1回としてもよい。
 このようにして、基板Sに、第1研磨、第2研磨を行って目標とする表面凹凸の基板が製造される。
Next, the substrate S is subjected to the second polishing. In the second polishing process, the main surfaces on both sides of the substrate S are polished while being held in the substrate holding holes 14 provided in the carrier 12 of the double-sided polishing apparatus described above. In the second polishing treatment, the type and particle size of the free abrasive grains are different from those in the first polishing treatment, and the hardness of the resin polisher is different. The hardness of the resin polisher is preferably smaller than that at the time of the first polishing treatment. For example, a polishing liquid containing colloidal silica as free abrasive grains is supplied between the polishing pad of the double-sided polishing apparatus and the main surface of the glass plate, and the main surface of the glass plate is polished. The size of the abrasive grains used for the second polishing is the average particle size (D50), and is preferably in the range of, for example, 5 to 50 nm.
The disk-shaped substrate S may be subjected to a "grinding" process before the first polishing. When an apparatus including a carrier similar to the polishing apparatus is used in the "grinding" process, the substrate placement support jig 10 can be used. Further, in the above embodiment, the polishing treatment is performed twice, but the polishing treatment may be performed once.
In this way, the substrate S is subjected to the first polishing and the second polishing to produce a substrate having a target surface unevenness.
 上述の説明では、基板配置支援治具10に適用する基板Sとして、内孔の開いていない円板状の基板を用いて説明したが、基板Sは、円形状の基板の他に、同心円状の内孔が開いた円盤形状の基板でもよく、さらには、四角形などの多角形基板、シリコンウエハーなどの半導体基板であってもよい。 In the above description, as the substrate S applied to the substrate arrangement support jig 10, a disc-shaped substrate having no inner hole is used, but the substrate S is concentric in addition to the circular substrate. It may be a disk-shaped substrate having an inner hole, a polygonal substrate such as a quadrangle, or a semiconductor substrate such as a silicon wafer.
 以上、本発明の基板配置支援治具及び基板の製造方法について詳細に説明したが、本発明は上記実施形態に限定されず、本発明の主旨を逸脱しない範囲において、種々の改良や変更をしてもよいのはもちろんである。 Although the substrate placement support jig and the method for manufacturing the substrate of the present invention have been described in detail above, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, and various improvements and changes are made without departing from the gist of the present invention. Of course, it may be.
