Description

一种晶片承载盘 技术领域
本发明涉及一种半导体制造设备,涉及一种用于MOCVD的晶片承载盘。
背景技术
石墨盘是MOCVD设备中非常重要的配件,目前常用的石墨盘都是圆形,在石墨盘上分布有一些凹槽,这些凹槽用于放置衬底,随后在衬底上生长外延层。石墨盘是由高纯石墨制成,并在表面镀有SiC涂层。外延生长过程,在MOCVD的反应腔中,通过加热丝对盛放有衬底的石墨盘进行辐射加热。
图1所示为现有的晶片承载盘的示意图,晶片承载盘10包括3个凹槽20,其中1个凹槽20中放置了晶片30。图2所示为图1中A-A’截面处的结构示意图,凹槽的底部一般为平、凸、凹三种。针对硅上氮化镓工艺,需要采用应力工程技术生长缓冲层,在生长有源区时,外延片呈凸型翘曲。所以对于硅上GaN的发光结构,一般采用凸型凹槽。但是使用凸型凹槽会存在的问题为:晶片30至于凹槽20中时,由于晶片30生长过程中,晶片承载盘10高速旋转,凹槽20内的晶片30受离心力的影响,会把晶片30向远离晶片承载盘中心C的方向移动,而凹槽底部的凸出结构,会使得晶片30其远离晶片承载盘10中心C的部分与晶片承载盘10底部的间隙相对较大,即导致晶片30与凹槽20的底部的距离差异较大,造成晶片30生长过程中受热不均匀现象非常明显,对晶片30的质量有影响,并且III-V族氮 化物发光晶片30的波长对温度较为敏感,容易造成晶片30内波长差异较大,会对后续的芯片制程以及分选工作造成时间和成本的大幅增加及良率的降低。
基于以上所述,提供一种可以有效提高晶片外延受热均匀性的用于MOCVD设备中的晶片承载盘结构实属必要。
发明内容
本发明的目的在于提供一种调整凹槽的底部的形状以有效提高晶片外延受热均匀性的晶片承载盘,改善III-V族氮化物外延生长的品质与外延、以及光电外延片的片内波长均匀性。
本发明提供一种晶片承载盘,包括至少一个凹槽,所述凹槽包括:
凹槽底部,所述凹槽底部以经过所述凹槽中心的第一分界线将所述凹槽底部分为靠近所述晶片承载盘中心的第一区域和远离所述晶片承载盘中心的第二区域,所述凹槽底部包括凹槽底面以及形成在所述凹槽底面上的凸出结构,所述凸出结构的边缘最接近所述晶片承载盘中心的点为第一边缘点,所述凸出结构的边缘最远离所述晶片承载盘中心的点为第二边缘点;
其中,位于所述第二区域的所述凸出结构的平均高度高于位于所述第一区域的所述凸出结构的平均高度。
作为可选的技术方案,所述凹槽还包括凹槽侧部,所述凸出结构的边缘与所述凹槽的侧部相接。
作为可选的技术方案,所述第一分界线为直线,所述第一分界线与经过所述晶体承载盘中心和所述凹槽中心的第一中心线相互垂直。
作为可选的技术方案,所述第一分界线为以所述晶体承载盘中心为圆心且以所述晶体承载盘中心至所述凹槽中心的距离为半径的圆弧。
作为可选的技术方案,所述凸出结构的表面为曲面,所述曲面具有一个顶点,所述顶点在水平面上的投影位于所述凹槽底部的所述第二区域。
作为可选的技术方案,所述顶点在水平面上的投影位于第一中心线上。
作为可选的技术方案,所述凸出结构的曲面为无数从所述顶点出发至所述凸出结构的边缘的曲线组成,所述无数曲线中每一条曲线的曲率半径均为固定值,其中,所述无数曲线的曲率半径从所述第一边缘点沿着所述凸出结构边缘至所述第二边缘点逐渐变小。
作为可选的技术方案,所述凸出结构的曲面为无数经过所述顶点且两端位于所述凸出结构的边缘的曲线组成,每一所述曲线中靠近所述晶体承载盘中心的一端为第一端,每一所述曲线中远离所述晶体承载盘中心的一端为第二端,其中,每一所述曲线从所述第一端至所述第二端曲率半径逐渐变小。
作为可选的技术方案,所述凸出结构边缘高度从所述第一边缘点沿着所述凸出结构边缘至所述第二边缘点逐渐升高。
作为可选的技术方案,在所述凸出结构的曲面上,从所述第二边缘点至所述顶点之间的曲线的切线斜率为正值,从所述顶点至所述第一边缘点之间的曲线的切线斜率由正值变负值。
与现有技术相比,本发明具有以下技术效果:
本发明的晶片承载盘的凹槽底部以经过凹槽中心的第一分界线将凹槽底部分为靠近所述晶片承载盘中心的第一区域和远离晶片承载盘中心的第二区域,凹槽底部包括凹槽底面以及形成在凹槽底面上的凸出结构,所述凸出结构的表面为曲面,曲面顶点位于凹槽底部的所述第二区域,因此,位于第二区域的凸出结构的平均高度高于位于第一区域的所述凸出结构的平均高度。晶片承载盘凹槽底部的设计结构能较好匹配III-V族氮化物晶片因为离心力以及凸出结构而导致的晶片与凹槽底部间隙较大的问题,使受晶片承载盘转动离心力作用的晶片始终保持与晶片承载盘间存在合理的间隙,降低了离心力对晶片生长的影响,保证温度与气流稳定,使温场分布更均匀,从而提升外延层晶片质量,提高发光外延片的波长均匀性,提高良率,在半导体制造设备设计制造领域具有广泛的应用前景。
为使本申请的上述和其他目的、特征和优点能更明显易懂,下文特举较佳实施例,并配合附图,作详细说明如下。

具体实施方式
下面将结合本申请实施例中的附图,对本申请实施例中的技术方案进行清楚、完整的描述。
图3所示为本申请一实施例中的晶片承载盘10的俯视示意图,如图3以所示,晶片承载盘10包括至少一个凹槽20,图3中凹槽20的数目为3个,围绕着晶片承载盘10的中心C有序排列,然而本申请对晶片承载盘20的凹槽个数、大小及分布都不作限制。本领域人员应当知晓,可以根据晶片30的大小,灵活设置凹槽20的数量、大小和排布。凹槽20的凹槽底部以第一分界线L1为界将凹槽底部分为靠近晶片承载盘中心C的第一区域S1和远离晶片承载盘中心C的第二区域S2。凹槽底部包括凹槽底面以及形成在凹槽底面上 的凸出结构210,所述凸出结构210的边缘最接近所述晶片承载盘中心C的点为第一边缘点,所述凸出结构210的边缘最远离所述晶片承载盘中心C的点为第二边缘点。位于所述第二区域S2的所述凸出结构210的平均高度高于位于所述第一区域S1的所述凸出结构210的平均高度。
由于晶片承载盘10转动离心力的作用,会把晶片30向远离晶片承载盘中心C的方向移动,而凹槽底部的凸出结构,会使得晶片30其远离晶片承载盘10中心C的部分与晶片承载盘10底部的间隙相对较大,即导致晶片与凹槽20的底部的距离差异较大,本发明通过调整凹槽底部凸出结构210的高度,使得凸出结构远离晶片承载盘中心C的部分的高度适当增大,使受晶片承载盘转动离心力作用的晶片30始终保持与晶片承载盘间10的凹槽20存在合理的间隙,降低了离心力对晶片生长的影响,保证温度与气流稳定,使温场分布更均匀,从而提升外延层晶片质量。
图4a以及图4b为本发明实施例中第一分界线在凹槽20底部位置示意图,如图4a所示,第一分界线L1为直线,第一分界线L1与经过晶体承载盘中心C和凹槽中心O的第一中心线L2相互垂直。第一区域S1和第二区域S2面积相等,其中第一区域S1靠近晶体承载盘中心C,第二区域S2远离晶体承载盘中心C。在另一实施例中,如4b所示,第一分界线L1为以晶体承载盘中心C为圆心且以晶体承载盘中心C至凹槽中心O的距离为半径的圆弧,圆弧型的第一分界线L1将凹槽底部分成两个面积不相等的部分,第一区域S1和第二区域S2面积相等,其中第一区域S1靠近晶体承载盘中心C,第二区域S2远离晶体承载盘中心C。
如图3所示,凸出结构210的边缘与凹槽20的侧部相接,凸出结构210的表面为曲面,曲面具有一个顶点H,图3俯视图中凹槽20内的围绕着顶点H周围的曲线,可视为等高线,从图3中等高线位置分布可以看出凸出结构210的在第二区域S2的平均高度高于凸出结构210在第一区域S1的平均高度。顶点H在水平面上的投影位于凹槽底部的第二区域S2的第一中心线L2上。
图5为一实施例中单个凹槽20的结构示意图,如图5所示,顶点H在水平面上的投影位于凹槽底部的第二区域S2的第一中心线L2上。所述凸出结构210的曲面为无数从所述顶点H出发至所述凸出结构210的边缘的曲线组成,所述无数曲线中每一条曲线的曲率半径均为固定值,其中,所述无数曲线的曲率半径从所述第一边缘点沿着所述凸出结构210边缘至所述第二边缘点逐渐变小。图5中示出了k1-k5五条曲线,k1-k5五条曲线的曲率半径分别为r1、r2、r3、r4以及r5,分别从靠近晶片承载盘中心C的第一边缘点O1沿着凸出结构210边缘至第二边缘点O2逐渐变小,即r5<r4<r3<r2<r1。
图6为本发明另一实施例单个凹槽20的结构示意图,上个实施例提到凸出结构210的表面有无数经过顶点H的曲线组成,相较而言,本实施例中,凸出结构210的曲面也可视为无数经过所述顶点H且两端位于所述凸出结构210的边缘的曲线组成,图6中示例性的画出O1O2、A1A2以及B1B2三条经过顶点H的曲线,且上述无数条经过顶点H的曲线在水平面上的投影为直线。每一所述曲线中靠近所述晶体承载盘中心C的一端为第一端,每一所述曲线中远离所述晶体承载盘中心C的一端为第二端,其中,每一所述曲线从所述第一端至所述第二端曲率半径逐渐变小。具体的,如图6所述,点O1、点A1以及点B1均为曲线O1O2、A1A2以及B1B2的第一端,点O2、点A2以 及点B2均为曲线O1O2、A1A2以及B1B2的第二端,对于曲线的O1O2、A1A2以及B1B2而言,每一条的曲线的曲率半径从第一端延伸至第二端均为时刻变化的,第一端至所述第二端曲率半径逐渐变小。
在一实施例中,图7为本发明另一实施例中凹槽20的截面结构示意图,如图7所示,凸出结构210边缘高度从第一边缘点O1沿着凸出结构210边缘至第二边缘点O2逐渐升高。
在一实施例中,图8位本发明又一实施例中凹槽20的截面结构示意图,如图8所示,在凸出结构210的曲面上,从第二边缘点O2至顶点H之间的曲线的切线斜率为正值,从顶点H至第一边缘点O1之间的曲线的切线斜率由正值变负值,即从顶点H至第一边缘点O1之间的曲线存在拐点,使得拐点前后曲线的切线斜率由正值变为负值。其中,曲线的切线斜率为正值的含义为曲线为山峰状,曲率为负值的含义为曲线为山谷状。
本发明上述实施例,通过调整凸出结构210的顶点H位置以及曲面在不同区域的曲率半径,以调整凸出结构210在凹槽底部的高度分布,从而使得凸出结构远离晶片承载盘中心C的部分的高度适当增大,使受晶片承载盘转动离心力作用的晶片30始终保持与晶片承载盘间10的凹槽20存在合理的间隙,降低了离心力对晶片生长的影响。
综上所述,本发明的晶片承载盘的凹槽底部以经过凹槽中心的第一分界线将凹槽底部分为靠近所述晶片承载盘中心的第一区域和远离晶片承载盘中心的第二区域,凹槽底部包括凹槽底面以及形成在凹槽底面上的凸出结构,所述凸出结构的表面为曲面,曲面顶点位于凹槽底部的所述第二区域,因此,位于第二区域的凸出结构的平均高度高于位于第一区域的所述 凸出结构的平均高度。晶片承载盘凹槽底部的设计结构能较好匹配III-V族氮化物晶片的翘曲,使受晶片承载盘转动离心力作用的晶片始终保持与晶片承载盘间存在合理的间隙,降低了离心力对晶片生长的影响,保证温度与气流稳定,使温场分布更均匀,从而提升外延层晶片质量,提高发光外延片的波长均匀性,提高良率,在半导体制造设备设计制造领域具有广泛的应用前景。
本申请中,晶片承载盘的材料可为石墨。然而本申请对晶片承载盘的材料不作特别限制,本领域人员知晓,可根据设计需求选择其他的材料。以上所述仅为本申请的优选实施例而已,并不用于限制本申请,对于本领域的技术人员来说,本申请可以有各种更改和变化。凡在本申请的精神和原则之内,所作的任何修改、等同替换、改进等,均应包含在本申请的保护范围之内。
