Definitions
- Embodiments of the present invention generally relate to statistical process controls (SPC) for a PECVD system and process, and more particularly to use of dynamic plasma intensity data for use in SPC.
- SPC statistical process controls
- Dynamic plasma lifting known in a PECVD process as powerlift (“PL”), is a process for the elimination of electrostatic charge on a substrate during plasma deposition.
- PL powerlift
- a plasma is ignited and then the gap between two electrodes (e.g., a first electrode and a bottom or chucking electrode) are moved relative to each other.
- the substrate is lifted up and apart from the second electrode.
- plasma intensity typically decreases as the gap between electrodes grows wider.
- the plasma spectrum will follow this same pattern, namely, the spectrum will show a decrease in intensity as electrodes separate.
- plasma intensity isn’t typically used. There are typically no changes in plasma intensity if a small amount of external gas contaminates a process. Moreover, as described above, due to the dynamic nature of plasma intensity during a PL process, rapidly changing intensity data is typically considered to be unstable, and unreliable for contamination detection. [0006] Therefore, what is needed are methods and systems to utilize dynamic plasma intensity data generated when two electrodes are moving relative to each other, such as in a PL process, deposition process, chamber cleaning process, or other process in which two electrodes are moving relative to each other.
- Disclosed embodiments generally relate to a method for detecting abnormalities in a PECVD process including changing a plasma intensity in a chamber by moving a second electrode relative to a first electrode, providing a wavelength range over which to measure a changing plasma intensity, defining a function that describes the changing plasma intensity over the wavelength range, and displaying an SPC reference based on the function, the SPC reference comprising one of a maximum, a minimum, an average, a median, a mode, and a mean value of one of the function, a derivative of the function, and an integral of the function.

- FIG. 5 depicts a method of process control and monitoring in a dynamic plasma condition, according to disclosed embodiments.
- FIG. 6 depicts a computer system for process control and monitoring in a dynamic plasma-lifting condition, according to disclosed embodiments.

- Additional dynamic plasma conditions may include any processes in which the first and second electrode move relative to each other. During this process, a plasma is ignited between the electrodes, and the gap between the electrodes is gradually increased until the substrate is lifted up from, and apart from, the second electrode 120.
- first electrode 110 and second electrode 120 may move relative to one another, such as for example plasma-cleaning and chamber plasma-seasoning processes, which may utilize the techniques disclosed herein.

- any such process will be referenced as a PL process herein.
- only the first electrode 110 may move, only the second electrode 129 may move, and in other embodiments, both electrodes may move.
- any type of measurement device or sensor capable of measuring changing plasma intensity values over time during a PL process may be utilized in embodiments of the techniques disclosed herein.
- Figure 2 depicts multiple plasma intensity measurements 200 taken during a PL process, according to disclosed embodiments.
- the spectrum analyzer 130 will measure multiple plasma intensity traces over time as the first electrode 110 and second electrode 120 move relative to each other.
- a first region 210 for example, has a first step 215, a second step 220, and a third step 225, that are measured at different points in time as the electrodes separate, causing a reduction in plasma intensity in the first region 210.
- the plasma intensity in the first region 210 may in some embodiments increase.
- the thirst step 225 may represent a measurement at a first point in time
- the second step 220 a second point in time
- the first step 215 would be the measurement taken at a third point in time.
- Figure 3 depicts group of plots 300 representing sample traces of plasma intensity measurements and SPC plots of the sample traces, according to disclosed embodiments.
- the plots are constructed from a PN function:
- Rl is the relative intensity measured from a selected wavelength range which in some embodiments could be plasma intensity of a wavelength region, or multiple regions, combined using a mathematical relation such as multiplication or division, while each exponential n coefficient parameter is assigned a “power tuning” value based upon the desired sensitivity of the function, based on gasses present in the process and potential abnormalities that may be present in the process.
- a range of values will be present, indicating the plasma intensity over the period defined by the plot.
- a sample of a range of values is shown in a circle 307.
- a statistical value may be derived from the range of values of each plot, such as for example, an average, a median, a mode, a mean, a max value, a min value, or other value capable of reflecting the range of represented values, and/or derivatives or integrals of such values.
- a first SPC average 315 is shown, however, this may be any statistical value such as an average, a median, a mode, a mean, a max value, a min value, or other value capable of reflecting the relative value of the represented values, and/or derivatives or integrals of such values.
- a first SPC boundary 320 may be utilized to show, for example one or more standard deviations from the first SPC average 315, chosen as appropriate for a chamber and process under evaluation, such as that represented in FIG. 1.
- additional data from the subsequent run is collected in a manner similar to the above, and shown in a second spectral plot 330.
- New spectral plot data samples are indicated by open circles at the measurement points, collected for example in a sample region 331.
- the statistical values representing the new spectral plot data samples are developed, and second SPC data 333 from sample region 331 is added to the first SPC reference 312 in the first SPC plot 310, to result in a second SPC plot 335, with the statistical values for the new spectral data indicated by open circles on the second SPC plot 335.
- the second SPC boundary may be the same as the first SPC boundary 320, and in some embodiments may be a different value.
- Figure 4 depicts a group of plots 400, of multiple sample curves representing a region of changing plasma intensity which may be combined by specific or designed numerical functions of a particular exponential power, and a plot of a statistical value representing each sample curve in an SPC graph, according to disclosed embodiments.
- the group of plots 400 are developed from a similar PN function as described above, with power tuning applied to the exponential coefficient values.
- the PN function may be made more, or less, sensitive to desired chamber and process conditions. As can be seen in in FIG. 3D, only one data point appears to be outside of the first SPC boundary 320. However, by modifying the exponential coefficients of the PN function while using the same sample data values, additional sensitivity is provided in the example data, causing two data points to exceed a second SPC boundary 420. Values chosen for modification of exponential coefficient values of the PN function is chosen for a particular process, chamber, gasses and other materials present within a chamber, etc., so as to provide the desired level of function sensitivity to enable indication of the presence of abnormalities.
- Figure 5 depicts a method 500 of process control and monitoring in a dynamic plasma condition, according to disclosed embodiments.
- the method changes a plasma intensity in a chamber by moving a second electrode relative to a first electrode, while at 510 the method 500 provides a wavelength range over which to measure the changing plasma intensity.
- At 515 defines a function that describes the changing plasma intensity over the wavelength range. In some embodiments, this is defined by providing a product/ration of a relative intensity having a numerical component defined by the numerical value of the function at a time t, from the first wavelength range, and assigning a first exponential coefficient to the numerical component. In some embodiments, the exponential components may be adjusted such that a second value falls outside of a single standard deviation of the SPC reference.
- the method displays an SPC reference from the function, the SPC reference comprising one of a maximum, a minimum, an average, a median, a mode, and a mean value of the function, and/or a derivative or integral of the function.
- method 500 may further comprise changing a second plasma intensity in the chamber by moving the second electrode relative to the first electrode (or moving the first electrode relative to the second electrode), defining a second function that describes the changing second plasma intensity over the first wavelength range, and displaying at least one second value from the second function, the at least one second value of the function, and/or a derivative or integral of the function, comprising one of a maximum, a minimum, an average, a median, a mode, and a mean of the second function, and/or its derivative or integral.
- a further embodiment includes comparing the SPC reference to the at least one second value wherein the difference of the SPC reference to the at least one second value indicates the presence of an abnormality, and updating a user display to indicate the presence of the abnormality.
- These embodiments may include changing the plasma intensity is performed multiple times, to define multiple functions describing changing plasma intensity over the first wavelength range, and extracting at least one value from each respective one of the multiple functions, each at least one value comprising one of a maximum, a minimum, an average, a median, a mode, and a mean of each respective one of the multiple functions, and/or their derivatives or integrals.
- Embodiments may further include plotting each at least one value from each respective one of the multiple functions to further comprise the SPC reference, wherein the second value is at least one standard deviation from at least one of the at least one value from each respective one of the multiple functions.
