Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of vertical oxidation of semiconductor heat processing, is used for vertical oxidation furnace more particularly to one kind
Flat-temperature zone carry out temperature measurement correction temperature deviation drawing temperature device.
Background technology
To ensure the uniform heating of reaction cavity in vertical oxidation, in body of heater multiple flat-temperature zones can be divided to carry out segmentation control
System, for example, point five flat-temperature zones.Wherein, equal fixed configurations have two groups of thermocouples in every section of body of heater, and one group claims in reaction chamber
Be Profile thermocouples, its temperature measured is closer to the temperature of silicon chip in itself;Another group is then referred to as close to heating element heater
Spike thermocouples, its temperature measured are closer to the temperature of heating element heater in itself.
After vertical oxidation finishes technique every time, the attachment or other objects that might have a small amount of gas remain in instead
Answer in chamber, after carrying out repeatedly some techniques, be further continued for heating up, reality just occurs with Profile thermocouples and Spike thermocouple thermometrics
Border temperature and measurement temperature have the situation of small size deviation.Therefore, in order to compensate this deviation, after technical process several times, lead to
The drawing temperature measurement of flat-temperature zone of progress is often needed, to correct temperature deviation.This, which just needs to use one, individually draws warm thermometric
Device.The thermocouple of this device can vertically move always with the top of its outside quartzy outer tube self-supporting oxidation furnace reaction chamber
Move to bottom, carry out the multipoint temperature measuring of whole stroke height.Multi-point temp and oxidation furnace itself the thermometric heat measured
The data occasionally measured are compared, it is possible to must be deviated, as long as deviation compensation is entered just to reach La Wen in control software
Purpose.
Single branch thermocouple is inserted with the outer tube of the existing warm temperature measuring equipment of drawing, its measurement end is located at the top of outer tube.
Before drawing temperature, the top that the outer tube equipped with single branch thermocouple is first inserted into reaction chamber from the bottom of oxidation furnace reaction chamber is attached
Closely, and in order to keep balancing, outer tube is made stably to move up and down, it is necessary to outer tube is had suitably in reaction chamber
After such insertion, the bottom away from reaction chamber will leave certain installation balance height on the top of initial setting height(from bottom), i.e. outer tube.
Therefore, when drawing warm, when outer tube is moved to setting height(from bottom), i.e. outer tube in oxygen from top to bottom at the top of oxidation furnace reaction chamber
When changing the terminal of vertical stroke in stove, because outer tube can not continue to move down, cause single branch thermocouple in outer tube can not
Measure the temperature in position to reaction chamber bottom section since then.So in the reaction chamber of the oxidation furnace with five sections of warm areas,
The effect that it draws warm area to realize is limited, larger a part of thermometric blind area in reaction chamber bottom be present, therefore can not verify and be in
Influence of the heat-preserving container of 5th warm area to four-temperature region or even whole warm area.Single branch thermocouple draws warm efficiency too low simultaneously, Zhi Nengtong
Cross and repeatedly draw temperature to carry out temperature comparisons, expend overlong time.This can cause quickly set temperature parameter, precise calibration temperature
