In order to make those skilled in the art better understand the technical solution of the present invention, the following describes the fan control method and the fan control device provided by the present invention in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
Referring to fig. 1, the present embodiment provides a fan control method, in which a fan 6 is connected to a process chamber 3 and used for delivering gas into the process chamber 3, the fan control method includes the following steps:
and S1, controlling the rotating speed of the fan 6 according to the change of the process parameters adopted by the cleaning process so as to reduce the energy consumption of the fan 6.
According to the fan control method provided by the embodiment, the rotating speed of the fan 6 is controlled according to the change of the process parameters adopted by the cleaning process, so that the rotating speed of the fan 6 changes along with the change of the process parameters, and the fan 6 can work at a lower rotating speed instead of the maximum rotating speed all the time in the whole cleaning process, thereby reducing the energy consumption of the fan 6 in the cleaning process, further saving the energy consumed by the cleaning process, and reducing the cost of the cleaning process.
Specifically, in the process of the cleaning process, the process parameters adopted by the cleaning process change along with the cleaning process going to different cleaning stages so as to meet the process effect of the current cleaning stage, the rotating speed of the fan 6 is controlled according to the change of the process parameters adopted by the cleaning process, so that the rotating speed of the fan 6 changes along with the change of the process parameters, and the rotating speed of the fan 6 is also controlled to meet the process effect of the current cleaning stage.
In practical application, the process parameters of the cleaning process include the rotation speed of the base, the process time, the swing state of the spray arm, the flow rate of the liquid sprayed by the spray arm and the like, and the process parameters can be changed along with the cleaning process in different cleaning stages so as to meet the process effect of the current cleaning stage.
Specifically, the change of the rotating speed and the process time of the base in the loading stage, the cleaning stage, the spin-drying stage and the unloading stage of the cleaning process is taken as an example for explanation, wherein in the process from the loading stage to the cleaning stage of the cleaning process, the process time is increased, the rotating speed of the base in the cleaning stage is greater than that of the base in the loading stage, in the process from the cleaning stage to the spin-drying stage, the process time is continuously increased, the rotating speed of the base in the spin-drying stage is greater than that of the base in the cleaning stage, in the process from the spin-drying stage to the unloading stage, the process time is continuously increased, and the rotating speed of the base in the unloading stage is less than that of the base in the spin.
Optionally, the process parameter includes a rotation speed of the susceptor; in step S1, the rotation speed of the fan 6 is controlled so as to be in a proportional relationship with the rotation speed of the base.
Specifically, in the cleaning process, the fan 6 is used for supplying air into the process chamber 3, and the magnitude of the airflow in the process chamber 3 can be changed by changing the rotating speed of the fan 6, generally, the larger the rotating speed of the base is, the larger the airflow required by the cleaning process is, the smaller the rotating speed of the base is, and the smaller the airflow required by the cleaning process is, so that when the rotating speed of the fan 6 is controlled according to the rotating speed of the base, the rotating speed of the fan 6 is increased along with the increase of the rotating speed of the base and decreased along with the decrease of the rotating speed of the base, so that the energy consumption of the fan 6 is reduced, the energy consumption of the cleaning process is saved, the cost of the cleaning process is reduced.
As shown in fig. 2, in the first embodiment of the fan control method, step S1 further includes the following steps:
s11, judging whether the rotation speed of the base is in the first rotation speed range, the second rotation speed range or the third rotation speed range; if the speed is within the first speed range, the step S12 is carried out; if the rotation speed is within the second rotation speed range, the step S13 is carried out; if the rotation speed is within the third rotation speed range, the step S14 is carried out; the maximum value of the first rotation speed range is smaller than the minimum value of the second rotation speed range; the maximum value of the second rotational speed range is smaller than the minimum value of the third rotational speed range;
s12, controlling the rotating speed of the fan 6 within a first preset range;
s13, controlling the rotating speed of the fan 6 within a second preset range, wherein the maximum value of the first preset range is smaller than or equal to the minimum value of the second preset range;
and S14, controlling the rotating speed of the fan 6 in a third preset range, wherein the maximum value of the second preset range is smaller than or equal to the minimum value of the third preset range.
Specifically, when the rotating speed of the base is judged to be in the first rotating speed range, the rotating speed of the fan 6 is controlled in the first preset range to reduce the energy consumption of the fan 6, so that the energy consumed by the cleaning process is saved, the cost of the cleaning process is reduced, the process requirement when the rotating speed of the base is in the first rotating speed range is met, when the rotating speed of the base is judged to be in the second rotating speed range, the rotating speed of the fan 6 is increased to the second preset range to meet the process requirement when the rotating speed of the base is in the second rotating speed range, and when the rotating speed of the base is judged to be in the third rotating speed range, the rotating speed of the fan 6 is controlled in the third preset range to meet the process requirement when the rotating speed of the base is in the third rotating speed range.
In the following, a loading stage, a cleaning stage, a spin-drying stage and an unloading stage in the cleaning process are taken as examples, wherein the loading stage is to place the wafer into the process chamber 3 and adjust the wafer to a process position in the process chamber 3, the cleaning stage is to clean the wafer at the process position, the spin-drying stage is to spin-dry the cleaning agent on the wafer, the unloading stage is to adjust the wafer to an unloading position in the process chamber 3 after the spin-drying stage so as to move the wafer out of the process chamber 3 to complete the cleaning process of the wafer, in the loading stage and the unloading stage, the rotation speed of the susceptor is within a first lower rotation speed range, only a smaller air flow is required in the process chamber 3, therefore, the rotation speed of the fan 6 can be controlled within a first lower preset range to reduce the energy consumption of the fan 6, in the cleaning stage, the cleaning agent needs to be uniformly sprayed to the surface of the wafer, at this time, the rotation speed of the susceptor is in a second rotation speed range higher than the first rotation speed range, and the air flow required in the process chamber 3 is also higher than that in the loading stage and the unloading stage, so that the rotation speed of the fan 6 needs to be controlled in a second preset range higher than the first preset range to increase the air flow in the process chamber 3, and in the spin-drying stage, in order to spin-dry the cleaning agent on the surface of the wafer, the rotation speed of the susceptor needs to be in a third larger rotation speed range, and the air flow required in the process chamber 3 is also higher than that in the cleaning stage, so that the rotation speed of the fan 6 needs to be controlled in a third preset range higher than the second preset range to further increase the air flow in the process chamber 3, and meet the process requirements in the spin-drying stage.
As shown in fig. 3, in another specific process of the first embodiment of the fan control method, the process parameters further include a swing state of the spray arm, and the swing state includes a stationary state and a moving state; step S1, further comprising the steps of:
s110, judging whether the swing state of the spray arm is a static state or a motion state, and if the swing state of the spray arm is the static state, performing the step S120; if the base is in the motion state, judging whether the rotating speed of the base is in a first rotating speed range or a second rotating speed range;
if the speed is within the first rotating speed range, the step S130 is carried out; if the rotation speed is within the second rotation speed range, the step S140 is carried out; the maximum value of the first rotation speed range is smaller than the minimum value of the second rotation speed range;
s120, controlling the rotating speed of the fan 6 within a first preset range;
s130, controlling the rotating speed of the fan 6 within a second preset range, wherein the maximum value of the first preset range is smaller than or equal to the minimum value of the second preset range;
and S140, controlling the rotating speed of the fan 6 in a third preset range, wherein the maximum value of the second preset range is smaller than or equal to the minimum value of the third preset range.
Specifically, when the swinging state of the spray arm is judged to be a static state, the rotating speed of the fan 6 is controlled within a first preset range; when the swing state of the spray arm is judged to be the motion state, whether the rotating speed of the base is in a first rotating speed range or a second rotating speed range is continuously judged, when the rotating speed of the base is judged to be in the first rotating speed range, the rotating speed of the fan 6 is controlled to be in a second preset range, and when the rotating speed of the base is judged to be in the second rotating speed range, the rotating speed of the fan 6 is controlled to be in a third preset range.
Still taking the loading stage, the cleaning stage, the spin-drying stage and the unloading stage as an example in the cleaning process, the swinging state of the spray arm usually occurs in the cleaning stage and the spin-drying stage, in order to spray the cleaning agent or the drying agent to the surface of the wafer, the air flow required in the process chamber 3 is different in the two stages, and the rotation speed of the base is different in the cleaning stage and the spin-drying stage, so when the spray arm is in the swinging state, it is further determined whether the rotation speed of the base is in the first rotation speed range of the cleaning stage or in the second rotation speed range of the spin-drying stage, so as to control the rotation speed of the fan 6 to be in the second preset range or in the third preset range, so as to meet the process requirements of the cleaning stage and the spin-drying stage; the rest state of the spray arm usually occurs during the unloading phase of the loading phase, and the air flow required in the process chamber 3 is smaller and substantially the same as during the rinsing phase and the spin-drying phase, so that the rotation speed of the fan 6 can be directly controlled within the first predetermined range when the spray arm is judged to be in the rest state.
In this embodiment, the first range of rotational speeds is less than 400 rad/min; the second rotating speed range is more than or equal to 400rad/min and less than 1900 rad/min; the third speed range is greater than or equal to 1900 rad/min.
Specifically, the rotational speed of the susceptor is in a first rotational speed range, i.e., less than 400rad/min, during the loading and unloading stages, in a second rotational speed range, i.e., greater than or equal to 400rad/min and less than 1900rad/min, during the washing stage, and in a third rotational speed range, i.e., greater than or equal to 1900rad/min, during the spin-drying stage. However, in practical applications, the rotation speed of the base in the loading stage, the unloading stage, the washing stage and the spin-drying stage is not limited thereto.
In the present embodiment, in step S1, the exhaust flow rate of the exhaust passage 5 is controlled according to the change in the rotation speed of the fan 6 to ensure the stability of the airflow in the chamber.
In practical application, the rotating speed of the fan 6 is controlled according to the change of the process parameters adopted by the cleaning process, and meanwhile, the exhaust flow of the exhaust channel 5 is controlled according to the change of the rotating speed of the fan 6, so that the air inlet flow of the process chamber 3 is matched with the exhaust flow in the process of changing the air volume blown into the process chamber 3 by the fan 6, the condition of turbulent flow in the process chamber 3 is avoided, and the stability of the air flow in the process chamber 3 is kept.
In the present embodiment, the exhaust flow rate of the exhaust passage 5 is controlled so as to be in a direct proportional relationship with the rotation speed of the fan 6.
Specifically, the increase of the rotation speed of the fan 6 increases the intake flow rate of the process chamber 3, the decrease of the rotation speed of the fan 6 decreases the intake flow rate of the process chamber 3, and the increase of the exhaust flow rate of the exhaust duct 5 with the increase of the rotation speed of the fan 6 and the decrease of the rotation speed of the fan 6 increase the exhaust flow rate of the process chamber 3 with the increase of the intake flow rate and decrease of the exhaust flow rate with the decrease of the rotation speed of the fan 6, thereby preventing the occurrence of turbulence in the process chamber 3 and maintaining the stability of the air flow in the process chamber 3. In addition, in the cleaning stage and the spin-drying stage, when the pedestal works at a high rotating speed, the cleaning agent on the wafer splashes to the side wall of the process chamber 3 under the action of centrifugal force, so that the process chamber 3 is polluted, and by increasing the exhaust flow of the process chamber 3 when the rotating speed of the pedestal is at the high rotating speed, more cleaning agent can be sucked away from the process chamber 3, so that liquid drops splashed to the side wall of the process chamber 3 are reduced, and the pollution of the process chamber 3 is reduced.
As shown in fig. 4, in the second embodiment of the blower control method, the process parameter includes a process time; in step S1, the rotation speed of the fan 6 is controlled according to a preset rule as the process time is accumulated.
As a second embodiment of the fan control method, different from the first embodiment, the rotation speed of the fan 6 is controlled according to the process time, not according to the rotation speed of the base and the swing state of the spray arm, specifically, in the cleaning process, the process time is continuously accumulated along with the cleaning process, and the process stages correspond to different process times, so that the rotation speed of the fan 6 can be controlled according to the accumulation of the process time and according to the preset rule.
In this embodiment, step S1 further includes the following steps:
s101, judging whether the process time reaches a first time point, if not, controlling the rotating speed of the fan 6 within a first preset range, and returning to the step S101; if yes, controlling the rotating speed of the fan 6 within a second preset range, and performing step S102; the maximum value of the first preset range is less than or equal to the minimum value of the second preset range;
s102, judging whether the process time reaches a second time point, if not, controlling the rotating speed of the fan 6 within a second preset range, and returning to the step S102; if so, controlling the rotating speed of the fan 6 within a third preset range; the maximum value of the second preset range is less than or equal to the minimum value of the third preset range.
Taking the loading stage, the cleaning stage and the spin-drying stage of the cleaning process as an example, wherein the starting time point of the cleaning stage corresponds to a first time point, the starting time point of the spin-drying stage corresponds to a second time point, when the process time does not reach the first time point, the cleaning process is in the loading stage, the rotating speed of the fan 6 is controlled in a first preset range, when the process time reaches the first time point, the cleaning process is carried out to the cleaning stage, the cleaning process has larger air flow relative to the loading stage, therefore, the rotating speed of the fan 6 is controlled in the second preset range to meet the process requirements of the cleaning stage, whether the process time reaches the time point is continuously judged, if the process time does not reach the second time point, the cleaning process is still in the cleaning stage, and the rotating speed of the fan 6 is still controlled in the second preset range, when the process time reaches the second time point, the cleaning process proceeds to the spin-drying stage, and at this time, the cleaning process requires a larger airflow than the cleaning stage, so that the rotation speed of the fan 6 is controlled within a third preset range to meet the process requirements of the spin-drying stage.
It should be noted that the fan control method in the second embodiment also includes controlling the exhaust flow of the exhaust channel 5 according to the change of the rotation speed of the fan 6, and details thereof are not repeated here.

In the fan control device provided by this embodiment, the process parameters adopted by the cleaning process are acquired by the acquisition unit 1 and sent to the control unit 2; the rotating speed of the fan 6 is controlled by the control unit 2 according to the change of the process parameters, so that the rotating speed of the fan 2 changes along with the change of the process parameters, and the fan 2 can work at a lower rotating speed instead of the maximum rotating speed all the time in the whole cleaning process, thereby reducing the energy consumption of the fan 2 in the cleaning process, further saving the energy consumed by the cleaning process and reducing the cost of the cleaning process.
In practical application, the control unit 2 can control the rotation speed of the fan 6 through PLC control, encoder control and program control.
In practical applications, a rotating motor 4 is usually connected to the base, and the rotating motor 4 can control the rotating speed of the base.
