Abstract
Disclosed is a vacuum tweezer used in carrying a semiconductor wafer in the process of fabricating a semiconductor, the vacuum tweezer comprises a Y-shaped vacuum tip having a flat body connected to a pumping line through a vacuum pump and two flat extensions projected from the body so as to vacuum-suction the wafer, and at least three suction portions formed on the flat front surface. Because at least three suction portions are formed on the flat front surface of the vacuum tweezer, the suction force on a wafer can be improved. Furthermore, because the vacuum tip is a Y-shaped structure, even though the state of vacuum is broken due to the flexibility of the vacuum tip, a semiconductor wafer can be vacuum-suctioned sufficiently.
Description
Used vacuum tweezer when the present invention relates in semiconductor fabrication process to transmit semiconductor wafer, relate to concretely improve the absorption wafer vacuum cups (Vac-uum tip) part so that the stable vacuum tweezer of semi-conductive transmission.
Generally, in the manufacturing work of semiconductor devices, in the manufacturing process of large-scale integration circuit, require the very high environment of cleanliness level especially, well-known, the yield of semiconductor device or reliability, quality etc. all depend on the cleanliness level of environment.
Thereby, must fully take into account dust at semiconductor applications for carrying out fine process, in order to make various stable process conditions, must adjust temperature and humidity, in fact also moreover, its operating environment also has influence on the Performance And Reliability of device, and it is very important creating suitable operating environment therefore for each manufacturing process of semiconductor devices.
Otherwise, the people that says so accurately who in semiconductor fabrication process, plays the effect of greatest contamination source.People let off steam and particle in the operating environment of semiconductor devices continuously, therefore, will put on the ultra-clean working clothes in this technological operation environment.
What further, semiconductor wafer is had contamination hazard is operator's hand and even finger.The salinity and the grease that often exist on operator's skin make element be subjected to extremely bad influence.Thereby, finish the transmission of semiconductor wafer in order not make people's direct contact, always be the tweezers (limited grasp tweezer---limited clamping tweezers) that adopt stainless and the limited position of clamping.
But with preceding a kind of tweezers holding chip the time, existence may destroy the problem of formed light-sensitive surface on the wafer (photoresist layer) etc., still exists to wafer perimeter as for a kind of tweezers in back and brings damage to become the former therefore problem of decision defective.
The vacuum tweezer that is used to solve aforementioned tweezers problem is shown in Fig. 1.This vacuum tweezer does not lean on clamping but can transmit wafer by adsorption affinity.
As shown in Figure 1, vacuum tweezer always has been equipped with and find time pipeline (20) and be connected in the vacuum cups (10) of pipeline of external vacuum pump bonded assembly.Aforementioned vacuum cups (10) is made by plastics or polytetrafluoroethylmaterial material, has adsorption section (2) at its flat front surface, this adsorption section (2) is provided with the homing vector portion of dark 0.1mm, and the oblong that configured in parallel is set in this homing vector is again supported platform (2b, 2c) and sucking hole (2a).Aforementioned sucking hole (2a) has the corresponding diameter of spacing with aforementioned support platform (2b, 2c).
In addition, above-mentioned support platform (2b, 2c) has identical height with above-mentioned homing vector portion, and configuration coequally, thereby is to establish because of the issuable damage to wafer of very strong adsorption affinity when adsorbing wafer for preventing.By aforementioned sucking hole (2a) institute suction air,, lead to above-mentioned vacuum pipe (20) by the internal pipeline of above-mentioned vacuum cups (10).
Utilizing such vacuum tweezer to transmit the occasion of wafer, as shown in Figure 2, after the adsorption section of the vacuum cups (10) of aforementioned vacuum tweezer will being attached to the back side of wafer (30), by being attached to the switch (not shown) on the vacuum tweezer, vacuumize, by above-mentioned sucking hole (2a), Yi Bian aspirated air, Yi Bian chip sucking is attached to aforementioned adsorption section (2).
Because of the suction nozzle (10) of this existing vacuum tweezer is made of plastics or polytetrafluoroethylene, because improper use tends to make the suction nozzle bending.Thereby, under the unloaded situation of vacuum cups (10),, when the absorption semiconductor wafer, destroyed vacuum state and adsorptivity is descended because front surface is not flat.
Because the destruction of vacuum state, when adsorptivity drops to predetermined value when following, just exist in the way of transmitting adsorbed wafer to fall, make the problem of wafer breakage.
And, because of aforesaid vacuum tweezer, only establish an adsorption section (2), so the weak strength of adsorption affinity not only also exists because the problem that aforementioned vacuum cups (10) bending descends its adsorption affinity greatly at its suction nozzle (10).
Have again, only establish a sucking hole, also have the situation that sucking hole blocked by pollutantss such as dusts and the problem that adsorption affinity is descended because of aforesaid vacuum tweezer.
Thereby the present invention's purpose is, for solving aforesaid problems, provides a kind of and at the flat front surface of vacuum cups the vacuum tweezer that the adsorption affinity of wafer is improved in three adsorption sections is set.
Another object of the present invention is to make vacuum cups to have " Y " shape structure, even provide a kind of because of the crooked institute of suction nozzle causes vacuum state destroyed, by the vacuum tweezer of part adsorption section absorption semiconductor wafer.
Feature according to the present invention who is used to finish aforementioned purpose, a kind of vacuum tweezer that is used to transmit semiconductor wafer, it is characterized in that, comprise the vacuum cups that is " Y " shape (10) with flat extension (11a, 11b) that the flat housing (11c) of front surface that is connected with the pipeline of finding time (20) of vacuum pump and two prolong from this housing and at least three adsorption sections (12,14,16) of being located at the flat front surface portion of aforementioned vacuum cups (10).
In this vacuum tweezer, above-mentioned at least three adsorption sections (12,14,16) have at least two separately and support platform and a sucking hole.
In this vacuum tweezer, above-mentioned support platform has and the corresponding height of the degree of depth of above-mentioned adsorption section, and is designed to oblong.
In this vacuum tweezer, above-mentioned three (12,14,16) adsorption sections are corresponding with above-mentioned housing (11c) and extension (11a, 11b) respectively and be provided with.
In this vacuum tweezer, above-mentioned vacuum tweezer (10) is made by polytetrafluoroethylene and plastic material.
According to aforesaid vacuum tweezer, above-mentioned vacuum cups has " Y " shape structure, and has at least three adsorption sections, thereby, even, also can adsorb semiconductor wafer fully by the part adsorption section because the suction nozzle bending causes vacuum state destroyed.
Fig. 1 is the planar view of suction nozzle (tip) structure of the existing vacuum tweezer of expression.
Fig. 2 is the figure that expression utilizes the vacuum tweezer absorption chip back surface (back side) of Fig. 1 to transmit.
Fig. 3 is the planar view that is used for the sucker structure of the vacuum tweezer that semiconductor wafer transmits according to an embodiment of the invention.
