Background
At present, the size of semiconductor devices is continuously reduced, the density of elements in a chip is continuously increased, and the distance between the elements becomes smaller and smaller, even to the nanometer level. Trace impurity elements between devices are introduced during the entire process of wafer processing and during the chip manufacturing process (e.g., Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD), ion implantation (Implant), Etching (ETCH), etc.), which may reduce the yield of the chip. Where the mobility of metal ions in the semiconductor material is very high, known as Mobile Ion Contamination (MIC), when the MIC is introduced into the wafer, it moves throughout the wafer, severely compromising device electrical performance and long term reliability. Therefore, the detection of surface metal ions on the wafer has become an indispensable link in the semiconductor manufacturing process.
In order to realize the test of trace metal ions, a VPD (Vapor Phase Decomposition) machine is required to collect the metal ions on the surface of the wafer, and then detection and analysis are performed in cooperation with ICPMS (Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry), and the step of collecting the metal ions on the surface of the wafer by Vapor Decomposition is as follows: (1) conveying the sample wafer covered with the oxide film to a designated position of full-automatic gas phase decomposition table pretreatment equipment, introducing hydrofluoric acid aerial fog to carry out gas phase decomposition pretreatment on the sample wafer, and waiting for scanning after the treatment; (2) scanning the standard scanning liquid on the surface of the sample wafer subjected to gas phase decomposition pretreatment; (3) collecting standard scanning liquid (VPD solution) after scanning; (4) the collected standard liquid is detected and analyzed by an ICPMS (inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer).
At present, when a metal collecting solution is used for treating a wafer after ion implantation and plasma etching processes, crystal lattices on the surface of the wafer are damaged due to ion bombardment on the surface of the wafer, so that the surface of the wafer is amorphized, hydrophilicity of the surface of the wafer is enhanced, and the metal collecting solution is spread on the surface of the metal collecting solution or cannot be dragged by a scanning pipe in a scanning process, so that scanning failure is caused.
When the metal collecting solution is scanned on the wafer, the front side of the wafer is scanned upwards, and if an FFU (Fan Filter, i.e., a Filter screen system with a Fan) of the gas phase decomposition machine is contaminated, the wafer may receive the contaminants blown by the FFU, thereby causing an inaccurate detection result.
In addition, the used metal collecting solution is manually prepared, pollution is avoided in the preparation process, the metal collecting solution needs to be added into the scanning tube before scanning every time, the scanning tube is small in size and not easy to add due to the fact that manual addition is needed, and time and labor are wasted in the adding process.
