背景技术Background technique
在大型集成电路加工工艺中,刻蚀工艺是其中一项重要的关键技术。其中,带电粒子束刻蚀设备因为电子的波长更短,所以刻蚀的精度更高,是一条重要的技术路线。并且,当带电粒子束入射到材料中,不同的材料成分、形貌特征会产生不同的背散射电子、二次电子以及特征X射线分布,因此可以根据探测到的背散射电子、二次电子和特征X射线分布推断出样品的组成成分和形貌特征,在大型集成电路制作过程中,带电粒子束检测设备广泛用于样品的缺陷检测和关键尺寸测量等地方。In large-scale integrated circuit processing technology, etching process is one of the important key technologies. Among them, charged particle beam etching equipment has higher etching accuracy because the wavelength of electrons is shorter, which is an important technical route. Moreover, when a charged particle beam is incident on a material, different material compositions and morphological characteristics will produce different backscattered electrons, secondary electrons and characteristic X-ray distributions. Therefore, the detected backscattered electrons, secondary electrons and The characteristic X-ray distribution infers the composition and morphological characteristics of the sample. In the production process of large-scale integrated circuits, charged particle beam inspection equipment is widely used in defect detection and critical dimension measurement of samples.
对于带电粒子束刻蚀设备和带电粒子束检测设备,如果透镜组与承载晶圆的位移台未对准,使得位移台的位置误差较大,会导致图像出现倾斜。图1为位移台的位置误差较大时的图像示意图,如图1所示,若位移台的位置误差较小时,则图像应为多个长方形,由于位移台之间的位置误差较大,会使图像出现倾斜,实际图像为多个平行四边形,导致刻蚀精度或检测精度降低。因此,为了减小位移台的位置误差,提高刻蚀精度或检测精度,需要将透镜组和位移台进行对准。For charged particle beam etching equipment and charged particle beam detection equipment, if the lens group is misaligned with the displacement stage that carries the wafer, the position error of the displacement stage will be large, which will cause the image to be tilted. Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of the image when the position error of the displacement stage is large. As shown in Figure 1, if the position error of the displacement stage is small, the image should be multiple rectangles. Because the position error between the displacement stages is large, it will The image is tilted, and the actual image is multiple parallelograms, resulting in a reduction in etching accuracy or detection accuracy. Therefore, in order to reduce the position error of the displacement stage and improve the etching accuracy or detection accuracy, the lens group and the displacement stage need to be aligned.

For multi-charged particle beam detection equipment, in some application scenarios it is necessary to stitch images of each charged particle beam. The position accuracy of the displacement stage is relatively high, and the combination of the lens group and the displacement stage cannot be achieved through mechanical processing alone. alignment between. The calibration system provided by the embodiments of the present application can be applied to equipment such as multi-charged particle beam etching equipment and multi-charged particle beam detection equipment to achieve alignment between the lens group and the displacement stage.

在上述步骤S303中,根据透镜组与承载盘的相对位置关系,以及预先确定的承载盘中各第二标记与参考结构的相对位置关系,可以确定透镜组与参考结构之间的第一角度。在本申请实施例中,参照图12,根据各第一标记M1和各第二标记M2的相对位置关系,可以确定透镜组102与承载盘201之间的相对位置关系。透镜组102与承载盘201之间的相对位置关系可以采用第二角度来描述,第二角度用于描述透镜组102与承载盘201在垂直于承载盘201方向上的相对位置关系。第二角度可以按以下方式确定:In the above step S303, the first angle between the lens group and the reference structure can be determined based on the relative positional relationship between the lens group and the carrier plate, and the predetermined relative positional relationship between each second mark in the carrier plate and the reference structure. In the embodiment of the present application, referring to FIG. 12 , according to the relative positional relationship between each first mark M1 and each second mark M2, the relative positional relationship between the lens group 102 and the carrier tray 201 can be determined. The relative positional relationship between the lens group 102 and the carrier tray 201 can be described by a second angle. The second angle is used to describe the relative positional relationship between the lens group 102 and the carrier tray 201 in a direction perpendicular to the carrier tray 201 . The second angle can be determined as follows:
将任意两个第一标记M1及对应的两个第二标记M2作为一个标记组,例如,可以将图12中的两个第一标记M1和两个第二标记M2作为一个标记组;Any two first marks M1 and the corresponding two second marks M2 are regarded as a mark group. For example, the two first marks M1 and the two second marks M2 in Figure 12 can be regarded as a mark group;
每一个标记组中,两个第一标记M1的连线与两个第二标记M2的连线之间的夹角Δθ可以按以下公式确定:
In each mark group, the angle Δθ between the line connecting the two first marks M1 and the line connecting the two second marks M2 can be determined according to the following formula:
其中,L1表示标记组中两个第一标记M1在第一方向x上的间距,Δy1表示标记组中的两个第一标记M1与直线轨道401在第二方向y上的距离差,L2表示标记组中两个第二标记M2在第一方向x上的间距,Δy2表示标记组中的两个第二标记M2与直线轨道401在第二方向y上的距离差;第一方向x和第二方向y均平行于测量框架的表面,且第一方向x与第二方向y相互交叉,例如,第一方向x与第二方向y可以相互垂直;Among them, L 1 represents the distance between the two first marks M1 in the mark group in the first direction x, Δy 1 represents the distance difference between the two first marks M1 in the mark group and the linear track 401 in the second direction y, L 2 represents the distance between the two second marks M2 in the mark group in the first direction x, Δy 2 represents the distance difference in the second direction y between the two second marks M2 in the mark group and the linear track 401; first The direction x and the second direction y are both parallel to the surface of the measurement frame, and the first direction x and the second direction y cross each other. For example, the first direction x and the second direction y can be perpendicular to each other;
将各标记组的夹角Δθ的平均值作为透镜组102与承载盘201之间的第二角度。The average value of the angles Δθ of each mark group is used as the second angle between the lens group 102 and the carrier plate 201 .
在透镜组102的加工过程中,可以采用激光刻蚀等手段在透镜组102上形成至少两个第一标记M1, 之后可以通过光学显微镜或电子显微镜测量标定各第一标记M1的位置,即各第一标记M1在透镜组102上的位置已知,第一标记M1的位置可以代表透镜组102的位置。并且,在测校工具20的加工过程中,可以在承载盘201上形成至少两个第二标记M2,通过光学检测或其他手段标定各第二标记M2的位置,以确定各第二标记M2与参考结构202的相对位置关系。也就是说,各第一标记和各第二标记的位置已知,这样,根据各第一标记和各第二标记的位置,以及上述公式可以得到的透镜组102与承载盘201之间的第二角度,可以推导得到透镜组102与参考结构202之间的第一角度。从而可以根据确定的透镜组与参考结构之间的第一角度,以及预先设定的第一阈值,确定角度调节值,然后,可以通过控制调节结构带动承载盘转动,调节透镜组与参考结构之间的第一角度,最终使透镜组与参考结构之间的第一角度小于预先设定的第一阈值。During the processing of the lens group 102, laser etching or other means may be used to form at least two first marks M1 on the lens group 102. Afterwards, the position of each first mark M1 can be measured and calibrated through an optical microscope or an electron microscope. That is, the position of each first mark M1 on the lens group 102 is known, and the position of the first mark M1 can represent the position of the lens group 102 . Moreover, during the processing of the calibration tool 20, at least two second marks M2 can be formed on the bearing plate 201, and the position of each second mark M2 can be calibrated through optical detection or other means to determine the relationship between each second mark M2 and The relative position relationship of the reference structure 202. That is to say, the positions of each first mark and each second mark are known. In this way, according to the positions of each first mark and each second mark and the above formula, the third distance between the lens group 102 and the carrier plate 201 can be obtained. From the two angles, the first angle between the lens group 102 and the reference structure 202 can be derived. Therefore, the angle adjustment value can be determined based on the determined first angle between the lens group and the reference structure and the preset first threshold. Then, the adjustment structure can be controlled to drive the bearing plate to rotate, and the relationship between the lens group and the reference structure can be adjusted. The first angle between the lens group and the reference structure finally makes the first angle between the lens group and the reference structure smaller than the preset first threshold.
在具体实施时,透镜组102上的各第一标记M1可以等间距设置,承载盘201上的各第二标记M2可以等间距设置,相邻两个第一标记M1的间距可以与相邻两个第二标记M2的间距一致,这样,上述公式可以简化为如下公式:
In specific implementation, the first marks M1 on the lens group 102 can be arranged at equal intervals, and the second marks M2 on the carrier plate 201 can be arranged at equal intervals. The distance between two adjacent first marks M1 can be the same as that between two adjacent first marks M1. The spacing between the two second marks M2 is consistent. In this way, the above formula can be simplified to the following formula:
从而,便于计算各第一标记M1与各第二标记M2之间的夹角Δθ,减少计算量,提高计算速度。Therefore, it is easy to calculate the angle Δθ between each first mark M1 and each second mark M2, reducing the calculation amount and increasing the calculation speed.
