Fig. 1 illustrates a schematic structural diagram of a chemical mechanical planarization apparatus provided in the prior art. In a semiconductor device manufacturing process, for example, as shown in fig. 1, when a chemical mechanical planarization process is used to planarize a surface of a wafer 10, a layer of polishing slurry is continuously distributed between the wafer 10 and a polishing pad 11. The polishing liquid is uniformly distributed on the surface of the polishing pad 11 by the centrifugal force of the polishing pad 11. A thin film of liquid is formed between the wafer 10 and the polishing pad 11, and chemical components in the slurry react with the wafer 10 to convert insoluble materials into readily soluble materials. The easily soluble substances are removed from the surface of the wafer 10 by micro-mechanical friction of particles, and flow out of the polishing pad 11 along with the polishing liquid, so as to achieve the purpose of planarizing the surface of the wafer 10. The above-mentioned easily soluble substances are usually mixed in the used polishing solution, and the used polishing solution cannot be directly reused for polishing, so that a large amount of polishing solution is consumed in the chemical mechanical planarization process.
In the prior art, the polishing liquid is added to the polishing pad 11 by a polishing liquid delivery device 12 such as a nozzle. Since the polishing pad 11 rotates along with the turntable, a part of the polishing liquid participates in the polishing of the wafer 10 under the centrifugal force of the polishing pad 11, and most of the polishing liquid is directly thrown out of the polishing pad 11. Therefore, most of the polishing solution cannot effectively participate in the polishing of the wafer 10, so that the utilization rate of the polishing solution is reduced and the use cost is increased. As the structure layers (the structure layers may be a shallow trench isolation layer, an interlayer dielectric layer, a metal plug material layer, a metal wiring layer, etc.) arranged on the wafer 10 become more complex, the chemical mechanical planarization process required in the semiconductor device manufacturing process increases, and therefore, the use cost of the polishing solution is higher and higher.
In view of the above technical problems, embodiments of the present invention provide a polishing head 20 and a chemical mechanical planarization apparatus. Fig. 2 shows a schematic structural diagram of a polishing head according to an embodiment of the present invention, and fig. 3 shows a schematic structural diagram of a chemical mechanical planarization apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 2 and 3, the polishing head 20 includes a retainer ring 21 and a guide cup 22, and the guide cup 22 is disposed on the outer periphery of the retainer ring 21. The guide cup 22 includes a cup wall, and at least one through groove 221 opened on the cup wall, the through groove 221 is used for circulating the polishing liquid.
The retaining ring 21 may be any retaining ring 21 provided in the prior art, and is not particularly limited herein. The retainer ring 21 may be adhesively secured to a surface of the polishing head 20 adjacent to the polishing pad 11. In actual use, the wafer 10 is sucked into the ring-shaped space of the retainer ring 21, and the retainer ring 21 is used to fix the wafer 10.
The retaining ring 21 may have a guide groove 211 formed in a bottom surface (a surface close to the polishing pad 11) thereof, and the guide groove 211 may extend from an outer sidewall of the retaining ring 21 to an inner sidewall of the retaining ring 21. In actual use, the polishing liquid under the centrifugal force of the polishing pad 11 can flow from the flow guide groove 211 to the side surface of the wafer 10, so as to improve the utilization rate of the polishing liquid.
The structure of the flow guide groove 211 is various, and is not limited herein. Fig. 4 shows a bottom view of the retaining ring 21 and the guide cup 22 provided in the embodiment of the present invention. For example, as shown in fig. 4, the retaining ring 21 may be provided with guide grooves 211 on the bottom surface thereof, and the guide grooves 211 extend from the outer side wall to the inner side wall of the retaining ring 21. The guide groove 211 communicates with the through groove 221. After flowing out of the through groove 221, the polishing liquid flows into the guiding groove 211 of the retaining ring 21, and the guiding groove 211 guides the polishing liquid from outside to inside, and finally flows to the surface of the wafer 10. In order to obtain a better communication effect, the polishing liquid outlet of the through groove 221 of the retaining ring 21 is disposed corresponding to the polishing liquid inlet of the guide groove 211 of the retaining ring 21. Whereby the polishing liquid can be more quickly introduced into the inside of the retainer ring 21. The above-described corresponding arrangement may not be strictly end-to-end, and the through groove 221 may be arranged obliquely to the retainer ring 21, and the polishing liquid may have a tendency to flow toward the guide groove 211 after exiting from the through groove 221. By the above-described corresponding arrangement, the flow rate of the slurry flowing to the flow guide groove 211 can be increased. In order to allow the slurry to sufficiently flow into the guide grooves 211, the slurry outlet of the through groove 221 may have a size larger than that of the slurry inlet of the guide grooves 211.
The guide cup 22 itself may have a complete cup-shaped cavity. The guide cup 22 may also be a hollow structure and form a cavity with the outer wall of the retaining ring 21. The cup-shaped chamber or cavities may be used to contain a polishing fluid, which is added to the chamber by the polishing fluid delivery device 12. At least one through groove 221 is formed in the wall of the guide cup 22 in the chamber, and the through groove 221 allows the polishing solution contained in the chamber to flow onto the polishing pad 11 and further to the periphery of the wafer 10. On the basis, at least one through groove 221 is arranged on the cup wall, the polishing liquid can flow to the through groove 221 along the cup wall and flow to the polishing pad 11 on the periphery of the polishing head 20 through the diversion groove 211, and when the polishing pad 11 rotates along with the turntable, the polishing liquid guided to the polishing pad 11 on the periphery of the polishing head 20 by the guide cup 22 flows to the polishing pad 11 below the polishing head 20 under the action of centrifugal force to participate in polishing operation. As can be seen from the above application process, the polishing liquid can be guided to the periphery of the polishing head 20 by the guiding cup 22, and then flows to the region of the polishing pad 11 under the polishing head 20 to participate in polishing by the centrifugal force of the polishing pad 11. By adopting the polishing head 20 provided by the embodiment of the invention, on one hand, the part of the polishing liquid thrown away by centrifugal force can be reduced, and on the other hand, the part of the polishing liquid flowing to the wafer 10 can be increased. In combination with the above effects, the polishing head 20 can improve the use efficiency of the polishing solution and reduce the use cost of the polishing solution by the guide cup 22. Through the practical use effect, 70% of polishing liquid which is thrown away to the outside of the polishing disk originally can be saved. By adopting the polishing head 20 provided by the embodiment of the invention, not only can the use cost of the polishing solution be saved, but also the market competitiveness of equipment equipped with the polishing head 20 can be improved.
Fig. 5 shows a schematic structural diagram of a retaining ring and a guide cup provided by an embodiment of the invention. As shown in fig. 5, the through groove 221 of the guide cup 22 may be inclined in a direction approaching the retainer ring 21. In order to allow the slurry to converge and flow to the outer periphery of the wafer 10, the through groove 221 should be inclined toward the retainer ring 21 or perpendicular to the polishing pad 11 as shown in fig. 2. After the polishing liquid is guided by the through groove 221, most of the polishing liquid has a tendency of flowing towards the direction of the wafer 10, so that the use efficiency of the polishing liquid can be further improved, and the use cost of the polishing liquid can be reduced. The above-mentioned through groove 221 is inclined toward the retaining ring 21, which means that: the upper slurry inlet of the through groove 221 is spaced from the center of the retainer ring 21 by a distance greater than or equal to the distance, and the lower slurry outlet is spaced from the center of the retainer ring 21. The specific structure of the through groove 221 between the polishing solution inlet and the polishing solution outlet is not limited, and may be a regular shape or a special shape, so as to ensure that the positional relationship between the polishing solution inlet and the polishing solution outlet of the through groove 221 satisfies the above requirements. For example, the portion between the polishing liquid inlet and the polishing liquid outlet may be similar to a flexible pipe, and how the pipe is coiled or the internal structure does not affect the direction of the polishing liquid flowing out of the polishing liquid outlet.
Fig. 6 is a schematic structural diagram of a guide cup provided in an embodiment of the present invention. In order to allow the slurry to flow to the through groove 221 better, the slurry flows to the outer circumference of the wafer 10 through the guide groove 211. As shown in fig. 2 and 6, the cup wall may have an inclined portion 222 inclined toward the retainer ring 21, and the through groove 221 is opened in the inclined portion 222. The inclined portion 222 may guide the flow of the slurry falling thereon toward the through groove 221, and on the other hand, may contain a certain amount of the slurry. The guide cup 22 as a whole acts like a funnel, while the inclined portion 222 can be seen as the inner wall of the funnel near the spout inside the funnel. Just as the funnel can have a variety of shapes, the shape of the cup wall is not limited, with the primary purpose of achieving the guiding and containment effect. The polishing liquid can be contained in the cavity formed between the cup wall of the guide cup 22 and the polishing head 20 and the retainer ring 21. The inclined portion 222 may guide the slurry to the through groove 221, and ensure the slurry to flow toward the wafer 10. In actual use, dynamic balance is formed by adjusting the adding speed of the polishing solution and the descending speed of the polishing solution in the cavity. Accordingly, it is ensured that the polishing solution is not added excessively to cause waste.
As shown in fig. 6, the inclined portion 222 and the retaining ring 21 form an included angle α of 10 ° or more and α <90 °. The inclined portion 222 and the retainer ring 21 are necessarily formed at an angle therebetween, wherein the flow rate of the polishing liquid between the retainer ring 21 and the guide cup 22 can be adjusted by changing the size of the angle α. And also has an effect on the rate of slurry flow in the channel 221. Therefore, by limiting the size of the included angle α, polishing solutions with different flow rates can be obtained, and the adjustment can be performed according to the processing requirements of the actual wafer 10, and the adjustment effect can be achieved by replacing different guide cups 22. Wherein, the flow velocity along the inclined portion 222 generated by the gravity of the polishing liquid is different according to the angle α. Furthermore, the difference of the included angle α affects the volume of the cavity, and further affects the flow rate of the polishing liquid in the through groove 221 and the flow rate of the polishing liquid.
As shown in fig. 2 to 4, in the polishing head 20 according to the embodiment of the present invention, the at least one through groove 221 includes a plurality of through grooves 221, and the plurality of through grooves 221 are uniformly formed in the wall of the cup. Since the polishing head 20 rotates, the through grooves 221 need to be uniformly arranged to ensure that the same amount of polishing liquid flows around the wafer 10. Therefore, the polishing solution is uniformly distributed on the wafer 10, and the chemical mechanical planarization effect is ensured. Meanwhile, the number of the through grooves 221 and the area of the polishing solution inlet and outlet of the through grooves 221 are different from each other in accordance with the amount of the polishing solution flowing toward the wafer 10 per unit time.
For example, referring to fig. 4, when the cross section of the through groove 221 is a fan-shaped ring, the higher the area ratio of the plurality of through grooves 221 on the same ring, the greater the flow rate of the polishing liquid. The larger the number of the through grooves 221 is, the more uniform the slurry flows toward the wafer 10. Therefore, the number and arrangement of the through grooves 221 affect the supply of the polishing solution. On the premise of ensuring that the number of the through grooves 221 is large, it is necessary to ensure that the area occupation ratio of the through grooves 221 is large, and the cross-sectional area of each through groove 221 cannot be too small.
For example, referring to fig. 4, when the number of the guide grooves 211 of the retaining ring 21 is 6, the through grooves 221 of the guide cup 22 are correspondingly arranged in 6 circumferential rows. Meanwhile, the cross section of the through groove 221 may be a sector ring shape as shown in the figure, and the arc length of the sector ring-shaped polishing solution outlet on the guide cup 22 is greater than the width or arc length of the polishing solution inlet of the guide groove 211. Accordingly, it is ensured that sufficient slurry flows out of the guiding groove 211 from the through groove 221, and thus sufficient slurry supply to the wafer 10 is ensured.
In most prior art polishing heads 20, the retaining ring 21 is a conventional annular ring type structure. The polishing head 20 provided by the embodiment of the present invention can be used in a wider range of applications. The guide cup 22 is fixedly or detachably disposed on the outer periphery of the retaining ring 21. When the guide cup 22 is fixedly connected to the periphery of the retaining ring 21, the guide cup may be integrated or glued. When the detachable connection is adopted, a threaded connection or a clamping groove embedding mode can be adopted.
For example, a groove may be formed on the existing retaining ring 21, and the guide cup 22 may be provided with a protrusion to fit into the groove, so as to fix the guide cup 22 to the retaining ring 21. At this time, the guide cups 22 are easy to detach and mount, and grooves may be formed in the retaining rings 21 having the same outer diameter, so that different guide cups 22 may be selected according to the opening condition of the guide grooves 211 in the retaining rings 21. A screw hole may be formed in the conventional retaining ring 21, and a screw hole may be formed in the guide cup 22 to be fixed by a bolt or the like. The above-described detachable effect can also be achieved.
For another example, the guide grooves 211 and the through grooves 221 may be provided correspondingly, in which case the guide cup 22 may be fixedly provided on the outer periphery of the retaining ring 21, and the retaining ring 21 and the guide cup 22 may be integrally formed. The guide cup 22 and the retaining ring 21 are then machined as a whole so that the guide grooves 211 and the through grooves 221 can be in exact one-to-one correspondence. The through grooves 221 and the guide grooves 211 may be connected end to end so that the polishing liquid may flow toward the wafer 10.
As shown in fig. 5 and 6, the guide cup 22 may have a hollow inverted truncated cone shape that penetrates vertically. The guide cup 22 of the central control inverted frustum is easy to process and can be finished through common cold processing, and meanwhile, the included angle alpha between the inclined part and the retaining ring 21 can be conveniently adjusted according to actual conditions. The cross section of the guide cup 22 may be any one of a circular shape, a square shape, or a special shape, but the more complicated the shape needs to be, the more difficult the processing is, the higher the processing cost needs to be, and the difficulty in adjusting the included angle α is also large.
As shown in fig. 3, an embodiment of the present invention provides a chemical mechanical planarization apparatus for polishing a wafer 10; the chemical mechanical planarization equipment comprises a turntable, a polishing head 20, a polishing liquid conveying device 12 and a polishing pad 11; the polishing pad 11 is arranged on a bearing surface of the rotary table; the polishing head 20 is used for carrying the wafer 10; the polishing liquid delivery device 12 is used for delivering the polishing liquid to the polishing pad 11. By combining the polishing head 20 provided by the embodiment of the invention, the chemical mechanical planarization equipment can save a large amount of polishing solution, so that the use cost of the polishing solution is reduced. So that the market competitiveness of the chemical mechanical planarization apparatus can be improved.
In the foregoing description of embodiments, the particular features, structures, materials, or characteristics may be combined in any suitable manner in any one or more embodiments or examples.
The above description is only for the specific embodiments of the present invention, but the scope of the present invention is not limited thereto, and any person skilled in the art can easily conceive of the changes or substitutions within the technical scope of the present invention, and all the changes or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the present invention.
