Description

本発明は、基板処理装置の処理室内に設けられた電極と処理室の内壁面とを電気的に絶縁する絶縁部材及び該絶縁部材を備えた基板処理装置に関する。   The present invention relates to an insulating member that electrically insulates an electrode provided in a processing chamber of a substrate processing apparatus and an inner wall surface of the processing chamber, and a substrate processing apparatus including the insulating member.

液晶表示装置(LCD)をはじめとするFPD(Flat Panel Display)の製造工程において、ガラス基板をはじめとする各種基板に対してプラズマ処理を施す基板処理装置が知られている。   2. Description of the Related Art A substrate processing apparatus that performs plasma processing on various substrates such as a glass substrate in a manufacturing process of an FPD (Flat Panel Display) including a liquid crystal display (LCD) is known.

このような基板処理装置においては、内部が真空領域である処理室(以下、「チャンバ」という。)内で基板を支持する基板載置台(サセプタ)と、該サセプタと処理空間を隔てて対向するように配置された上部電極とを有し、下部電極として機能するサセプタにプラズマ生成用の高周波電力(RF)を印加すると共に、チャンバ内の処理空間に処理ガスを導入してプラズマを生成させ、生成したプラズマを用いてサセプタに載置された基板に対して所定のプラズマ処理が施される。   In such a substrate processing apparatus, a substrate mounting table (susceptor) for supporting a substrate in a processing chamber (hereinafter referred to as “chamber”) whose inside is a vacuum region is opposed to the susceptor with a processing space therebetween. A high-frequency power (RF) for plasma generation is applied to a susceptor functioning as a lower electrode, and a processing gas is introduced into a processing space in the chamber to generate plasma. A predetermined plasma process is performed on the substrate placed on the susceptor using the generated plasma.

サセプタは処理対象である基板と同様の矩形を呈しており、RFの絶縁を確保するためにサセプタとチャンバの内壁面、例えば底部壁面とを電気的に絶縁する絶縁部材は矩形の環状体からなる。絶縁部材は、通常、内側部材と、外側部材と、該内側部材と外側部材との間に配置されたシール部材とから主として構成されている。内側部材及び外側部材は、例えば、ポリテトラフルオロエチレン(商品名:テフロン(登録商標))をはじめとする絶縁性の材料で構成されており、内側部材で囲まれた領域は、大気に開放された大気領域となっている。従って、内側部材と外側部材との間に配置されたシール部材は、チャンバ内の真空領域と内部部材に囲まれた大気領域とを区画している。   The susceptor has the same rectangular shape as the substrate to be processed, and the insulating member that electrically insulates the susceptor and the inner wall surface of the chamber, for example, the bottom wall surface, from a rectangular annular body in order to ensure RF insulation. . Usually, the insulating member is mainly composed of an inner member, an outer member, and a seal member disposed between the inner member and the outer member. The inner member and the outer member are made of an insulating material such as polytetrafluoroethylene (trade name: Teflon (registered trademark)), and the region surrounded by the inner member is open to the atmosphere. It has become an atmospheric region. Accordingly, the seal member disposed between the inner member and the outer member defines a vacuum region in the chamber and an atmospheric region surrounded by the inner member.

絶縁部材を構成する内部部材及び外部部材は矩形の環状体であり、近年の産業界の要請等に伴う処理基板の大型化に伴って大型化しているために一体成形することが困難であること、また、形状の簡易化、コストダウン、部材の膨張による寸法変化への対策の観点から、通常、複数の構成部材の組合せによる組合せ体として形成されている。   The internal member and the external member constituting the insulating member are rectangular annular bodies, and it is difficult to integrally form because the processing substrate has been increased in size due to the recent demand from the industry, etc. Moreover, from the viewpoint of simplification of shape, cost reduction, and measures against dimensional changes due to expansion of members, it is usually formed as a combination of a plurality of constituent members.

図7は、従来技術における絶縁部材の構成を示す図であり、図7(A)は、絶縁部材全体の平面図、図7(B)は、絶縁部材の角部の部分拡大平面図、図7(C)は、絶縁部材の角部の部分拡大側面図である。   7A and 7B are diagrams showing a configuration of an insulating member in the prior art. FIG. 7A is a plan view of the entire insulating member, and FIG. 7B is a partially enlarged plan view of a corner portion of the insulating member. 7 (C) is a partially enlarged side view of the corner of the insulating member.

図7において、絶縁部材70は、矩形の内側部材71及び外側部材72と、該内側部材71及び外側部材72の間に挟持するように配置されたシール部材としての矩形のOリング73とから主として構成されている。内側部材71及び外側部材72は複数に分割された構成部材からなり、各構成部材は、図示省略したねじによってチャンバの底部壁面に固定されている。なお、矩形の角部に配置された構成部材はそれぞれL字状を呈している。   In FIG. 7, the insulating member 70 is mainly composed of a rectangular inner member 71 and an outer member 72, and a rectangular O-ring 73 as a seal member disposed so as to be sandwiched between the inner member 71 and the outer member 72. It is configured. The inner member 71 and the outer member 72 are composed of constituent members divided into a plurality of parts, and each constituent member is fixed to the bottom wall surface of the chamber by a screw (not shown). In addition, the structural member arrange | positioned at the corner | angular part of a rectangle is exhibiting L shape.

絶縁部材70は、処理目的に応じて加熱される下部電極からの伝熱によって加熱され、熱膨張する。従って、熱膨張時に、隣接する構成部材相互の当接面において相互に他方を押し合う力が発生して変形する虞がある。   The insulating member 70 is heated by heat transfer from the lower electrode heated according to the processing purpose, and is thermally expanded. Therefore, at the time of thermal expansion, there is a possibility that a force that pushes the other member on the contact surface between adjacent components is generated and deformed.

そこで、各構成部材相互間には、あらかじめ熱膨張代として熱膨張分を吸収するための隙間74が設けられている。なお、プラズマの、例えば、縦方向の貫通を防止するために、各構成部材相互の当接部に段差部75が設けられており、隙間74は段差部75によって2つに分割されている。   Therefore, a gap 74 for absorbing thermal expansion as a thermal expansion allowance is provided in advance between the constituent members. In order to prevent plasma from penetrating in the vertical direction, for example, a stepped portion 75 is provided at a contact portion between the constituent members, and the gap 74 is divided into two by the stepped portion 75.

しかしながら、隙間74は種々の処理条件における各構成部材の熱膨張を吸収するために十分な大きさに設計されていたために、基板処理時に構成部材が熱膨張しても隙間74が完全に閉じられず、殆どの場合、隙間74に幾分かの間隙が残留していた。   However, since the gap 74 is designed to be large enough to absorb the thermal expansion of each component under various processing conditions, the gap 74 is completely closed even if the component expands during substrate processing. In most cases, some gaps remained in the gap 74.

プラズマ処理時に、各構成部材相互間に隙間74が存在すると、該隙間74からプラズマが進入して外側部材72の内側に配置されたOリング73に至り、プラズマの照射を受けたOリング73が短時間のうちに劣化するという問題が生じる。   If a gap 74 exists between the constituent members during the plasma processing, the plasma enters from the gap 74 to reach the O-ring 73 disposed inside the outer member 72, and the O-ring 73 that has been irradiated with plasma is exposed. The problem that it deteriorates in a short time arises.

そこで、このような絶縁部材、シールドリングをはじめとするチャンバ内部品の熱膨張に伴って発生する問題を解決するために、チャンバ内部品を構成する各構成部材を相互に引きつけるように付勢する付勢部材又は各構成部材を該構成部材の組み立て体としてのチャンバ内部品の中心部に向かって付勢する付勢部材を取り付け、これによって、各構成部材相互間における隙間の発生を防止する技術が提案されている(例えば、「特許文献1」参照)。   Therefore, in order to solve the problems caused by the thermal expansion of the in-chamber components such as the insulating member and the shield ring, the constituent members constituting the in-chamber components are energized so as to attract each other. A technology for attaching an urging member or an urging member for urging each component member toward the central portion of the in-chamber component as an assembly of the component members, thereby preventing a gap from being generated between the component members Has been proposed (see, for example, “Patent Document 1”).

特開2008−311298号公報JP 2008-311298 A

しかしながら、チャンバ内部品を形成するための各構成部材に対して特定の方向に働く作用力を付与するための付勢部材を取り付けることは、必ずしも容易ではない。一方、熱膨張を吸収するための隙間をなくしたのでは、熱膨張による構成部材の変形または破損を招くことになり、また、熱膨張を十分吸収できる隙間を放置したのでは、該隙間からプラズマが進入して、例えばその内部に配置された他の構成部品の劣化を促進させるという問題がある。   However, it is not always easy to attach an urging member for applying an acting force acting in a specific direction to each component for forming the in-chamber component. On the other hand, if the gap for absorbing the thermal expansion is eliminated, deformation or breakage of the component due to the thermal expansion is caused, and if the gap that can sufficiently absorb the thermal expansion is left, the plasma from the gap is left. There is a problem in that, for example, the deterioration of other components arranged inside it is promoted.

本発明の課題は、シール部材の劣化を防止することができる絶縁部材及び該絶縁部材を備えた基板処理装置を提供することにある。   The subject of this invention is providing the substrate processing apparatus provided with the insulating member which can prevent deterioration of a sealing member, and this insulating member.

基板載置面13aの周囲を囲むようにシールドリング15が設けられている。基材13の上部は静電電極板16を内蔵し、静電チャックとして機能する。静電電極板16には直流電源17が接続されており、静電電極板16に正の直流電圧が印加されると、基板載置面13aに載置された基板Gにおける静電電極板16側の面(以下、「裏面」という。)には負電荷が誘起され、これによって静電電極板16及び基板Gの裏面の間に電界が生じ、該電界に起因するクーロン力又はジョンソン・ラーベック力により、基板Gが基板載置面13aに吸着保持される。   A shield ring 15 is provided so as to surround the periphery of the substrate placement surface 13a. The upper part of the base material 13 incorporates an electrostatic electrode plate 16 and functions as an electrostatic chuck. A DC power source 17 is connected to the electrostatic electrode plate 16, and when a positive DC voltage is applied to the electrostatic electrode plate 16, the electrostatic electrode plate 16 on the substrate G placed on the substrate placement surface 13a. A negative charge is induced on the side surface (hereinafter referred to as “rear surface”), whereby an electric field is generated between the electrostatic electrode plate 16 and the rear surface of the substrate G, and Coulomb force or Johnson Rabeck resulting from the electric field is generated. The substrate G is attracted and held on the substrate placement surface 13a by the force.

基材13の内部には、基材13及び基板載置面13aに載置された基板Gの温度を調節するための温度調節機構(図示省略)が設けられている。この温度調節機構に、例えば、冷却水やガルデン(登録商標)等の冷媒が循環供給され、該冷媒によって冷却された基材13は基板Gを冷却する。   Inside the base material 13, a temperature adjustment mechanism (not shown) for adjusting the temperature of the base material 13 and the substrate G placed on the substrate placement surface 13a is provided. For example, coolant such as cooling water or Galden (registered trademark) is circulated and supplied to the temperature adjusting mechanism, and the base material 13 cooled by the coolant cools the substrate G.

基材13の周囲には、シールドリング15と基材13との当接部を含む側面を覆うサイドシールド部材としての絶縁リング18が配置されている。絶縁リング18は絶縁性のセラミックス、例えばアルミナで構成されている。   Around the base material 13, an insulating ring 18 is disposed as a side shield member that covers a side surface including a contact portion between the shield ring 15 and the base material 13. The insulating ring 18 is made of an insulating ceramic such as alumina.

チャンバ11の底部平面、絶縁部材14で囲まれた空間部及び基材13を貫通する貫通孔に、昇降ピン21が昇降可能に挿通されている。昇降ピン21は基板載置面13aに載置される基板Gの搬入及び搬出時に作動するものであり、基板Gをチャンバ11内に搬入する際又はチャンバ11から搬出する際には、サセプタ12の上方の搬送位置まで上昇し、それ以外のときには基板載置面13a内に埋設状態で収容されている。   An elevating pin 21 is inserted through the bottom plane of the chamber 11, a space surrounded by the insulating member 14, and a through hole penetrating the base material 13 so as to be movable up and down. The elevating pins 21 operate when the substrate G placed on the substrate placement surface 13a is carried in and out, and when the substrate G is carried into or out of the chamber 11, the susceptor 12 is moved. The substrate moves up to the upper transfer position, and is otherwise housed in the substrate placement surface 13a.

基板載置面13aには、図示省略した複数の伝熱ガス供給孔が開口している。複数の伝熱ガス供給孔は伝熱ガス供給部に接続され、伝熱ガス供給部から伝熱ガスとして、例えばヘリウム(He)ガスが基板載置面13a及び基板Gの裏面の間隙に供給される。基板載置面13a及び基板Gの裏面の間隙に供給されたヘリウムガスは基板Gとサセプタ12の間で効果的に熱の伝達を行い、例えば、基板Gの熱をサセプタ12に抜熱して効果的に基板Gの冷却を行うことができる。   A plurality of heat transfer gas supply holes (not shown) are opened in the substrate mounting surface 13a. The plurality of heat transfer gas supply holes are connected to the heat transfer gas supply unit, and for example, helium (He) gas is supplied from the heat transfer gas supply unit to the gap between the substrate mounting surface 13a and the back surface of the substrate G. The The helium gas supplied to the gap between the substrate mounting surface 13a and the back surface of the substrate G effectively transfers heat between the substrate G and the susceptor 12. For example, the heat of the substrate G is extracted to the susceptor 12 to be effective. In particular, the substrate G can be cooled.

サセプタ12の基材13には、高周波電力を供給するための高周波電源23が整合器24を介して接続されている。高周波電源23からは、例えば13.56MHzの高周波電力(RF)が印加され、サセプタ12は下部電極として機能する。整合器24は、サセプタ12からの高周波電力の反射を低減して高周波電力のサセプタ12への印加効率を最大にする。   A high frequency power source 23 for supplying high frequency power is connected to the base material 13 of the susceptor 12 via a matching unit 24. A high frequency power (RF) of 13.56 MHz, for example, is applied from the high frequency power supply 23, and the susceptor 12 functions as a lower electrode. The matching unit 24 reduces the reflection of the high frequency power from the susceptor 12 to maximize the application efficiency of the high frequency power to the susceptor 12.

基板処理装置10では、チャンバ11の内部側壁とサセプタ12の側面とによって側方排気路26が形成される。この側方排気路26は排気管27を介して排気装置28に接続されている。排気装置28としてのTMP(Turbo Molecular Pump)及びDP(Dry Pump)若しくはMBP(Mechanical Booster Pump)(ともに図示省略)はチャンバ11内を真空引きして減圧する。具体的には、DP若しくはMBPはチャンバ11内を大気圧から中真空状態(例えば、1.3×10Pa(0.1Torr)以下)まで減圧し、TMPはDP若しくはMBPと協働してチャンバ11内を中真空状態より低い圧力である高真空状態(例えば、1.3×10−3Pa(1.0×10−5Torr)以下)まで減圧する。なお、チャンバ11内の圧力はAPCバルブ(図示省略)によって制御される。 In the substrate processing apparatus 10, a side exhaust path 26 is formed by the inner side wall of the chamber 11 and the side surface of the susceptor 12. The side exhaust path 26 is connected to an exhaust device 28 via an exhaust pipe 27. TMP (Turbo Molecular Pump) and DP (Dry Pump) or MBP (Mechanical Booster Pump) (both not shown) as the exhaust device 28 are evacuated to reduce the pressure inside the chamber 11. Specifically, DP or MBP depressurizes the inside of the chamber 11 from atmospheric pressure to a medium vacuum state (for example, 1.3 × 10 Pa (0.1 Torr or less)), and TMP cooperates with DP or MBP to chamber 11. The inside is depressurized to a high vacuum state (for example, 1.3 × 10 −3 Pa (1.0 × 10 −5 Torr or less)) that is lower than the medium vacuum state. The pressure in the chamber 11 is controlled by an APC valve (not shown).

チャンバ11の天井部分には、サセプタ12と対向するようにシャワーヘッド30が配置されている。シャワーヘッド30は内部空間31を有するとともに、サセプタ12との間の処理空間Sに処理ガスを吐出する複数のガス孔32を有する。シャワーヘッド30は接地されており、下部電極として機能するサセプタ12と共に一対の平行平板電極を構成している。   A shower head 30 is disposed on the ceiling portion of the chamber 11 so as to face the susceptor 12. The shower head 30 has an internal space 31 and a plurality of gas holes 32 for discharging a processing gas into the processing space S between the shower head 30 and the susceptor 12. The shower head 30 is grounded and constitutes a pair of parallel plate electrodes together with the susceptor 12 functioning as a lower electrode.

シャワーヘッド30は、ガス供給管36を介して処理ガス供給源39に接続されている。ガス供給管36には、開閉バルブ37及びマスフローコントローラ38が設けられている。また、処理チャンバ11の側壁には基板搬入出口34が設けられており、この基板搬入出口34はゲートバルブ35により開閉可能となっている。そして、このゲートバルブ35を介して処理対象である基板Gがチャンバ11に搬入出される。   The shower head 30 is connected to a processing gas supply source 39 via a gas supply pipe 36. The gas supply pipe 36 is provided with an open / close valve 37 and a mass flow controller 38. A substrate loading / unloading port 34 is provided on the side wall of the processing chamber 11, and the substrate loading / unloading port 34 can be opened and closed by a gate valve 35. Then, the substrate G to be processed is carried into and out of the chamber 11 through the gate valve 35.

基板処理装置10では、処理ガス供給源39から処理ガス導入管36を介して処理ガスが供給される。供給された処理ガスは、シャワーヘッド30の内部空間31及びガス孔32を介してチャンバ11の処理空間Sへ導入される。導入された処理ガスは、高周波電源23からサセプタ12を介して処理空間Sへ印加されたプラズマ生成用の高周波電力(RF)によって励起されてプラズマとなる。プラズマ中のイオンは、基板Gに向かって引きこまれ、基板Gに対して所定のプラズマエッチング処理を施す。   In the substrate processing apparatus 10, the processing gas is supplied from the processing gas supply source 39 through the processing gas introduction pipe 36. The supplied processing gas is introduced into the processing space S of the chamber 11 through the internal space 31 and the gas hole 32 of the shower head 30. The introduced processing gas is excited into plasma by high-frequency power (RF) for plasma generation applied to the processing space S from the high-frequency power source 23 via the susceptor 12. Ions in the plasma are attracted toward the substrate G, and the substrate G is subjected to a predetermined plasma etching process.

基板処理装置10の各構成部品の動作は、基板処理装置10が備える制御部(図示省略)のCPUがプラズマエッチング処理に対応するプログラムに応じて制御する。   The operation of each component of the substrate processing apparatus 10 is controlled by a CPU of a control unit (not shown) provided in the substrate processing apparatus 10 according to a program corresponding to the plasma etching process.

図2は、本発明の実施の形態に係る絶縁部材の構成を示す平面図である。   FIG. 2 is a plan view showing the configuration of the insulating member according to the embodiment of the present invention.

図2において、絶縁部材14は、内側部材41と、外側部材42と、該内側部材41及び外側部材42の間に挟持されるように配置された環状のシール部材(以下、「Oリング」という。)43とから主として構成されている。   In FIG. 2, the insulating member 14 includes an inner member 41, an outer member 42, and an annular seal member (hereinafter referred to as an “O-ring”) disposed so as to be sandwiched between the inner member 41 and the outer member 42. .) 43.

外部部材42は、矩形のサセプタ12の各辺に対応して配置された4つの長尺状物からなる矩形を呈しており、対向する2つの短辺を形成する長尺状物44、45と、対向する2つの長辺を形成する長尺状物46、47との組合せ体で構成されている。長尺状物44の固定端44aの端面は、隣接する他の長尺状物46の長さ方向の端部(自由端)46bの側面に当接し、他端である移動端44bの側面が、隣接する他の長尺状物46とは異なる隣接する別の長尺状物47の端部(固定端)47aの端面に当接するように配置されている。長尺状物45及び47は、それぞれ内部部材41で囲まれた空間部である大気領域50の中心点Cに対して長尺状物44及び46と点対象となるように組み合わされている。   The external member 42 has a rectangular shape composed of four long objects arranged corresponding to the respective sides of the rectangular susceptor 12, and has long objects 44 and 45 that form two opposing short sides; It is composed of a combination of long objects 46 and 47 that form two opposing long sides. The end surface of the fixed end 44a of the long object 44 is in contact with the side surface of the end (free end) 46b in the length direction of another adjacent long object 46, and the side surface of the moving end 44b, which is the other end, is in contact. These are arranged so as to come into contact with the end surface of the end (fixed end) 47a of another adjacent long object 47 different from the other adjacent long object 46. The long objects 45 and 47 are combined with the long objects 44 and 46 so as to be point targets with respect to the center point C of the atmospheric region 50 which is a space surrounded by the internal member 41.

長尺状物44〜47は、その長さ方向の一端である固定端に設けられた固定用のねじ孔48と、該固定用のねじ孔48とは長尺状物の長さ方向に離間して設けられた支持用のねじ孔49を有する。固定端44a〜47aはそれぞれ固定用のねじ孔48に装着された固定ねじ(図示省略)によってチャンバ11の底部平面に固定されている。一方、自由端44b〜47bは、支持用のねじ孔49を貫通する支持ねじ(図示省略)によって、チャンバ11の底部平面に対して長尺状物の長さ方向に沿って変位自在に支持されている。これによって、各長尺状物44〜47は固定端44a〜47aを起点にして長尺状物の長さ方向に沿って熱膨張又は熱収縮可能に支持されている。   The long objects 44 to 47 are fixed in the fixing end which is one end in the length direction, and the fixing screw holes 48 are separated from each other in the length direction of the long object. The support screw hole 49 is provided. The fixed ends 44 a to 47 a are fixed to the bottom plane of the chamber 11 by fixing screws (not shown) mounted in the fixing screw holes 48, respectively. On the other hand, the free ends 44b to 47b are supported by a support screw (not shown) penetrating the support screw hole 49 so as to be displaceable along the length of the long object with respect to the bottom plane of the chamber 11. ing. As a result, each of the long objects 44 to 47 is supported so as to be capable of thermal expansion or contraction along the length direction of the long object starting from the fixed ends 44a to 47a.

固定用のねじ孔48は長尺状物の固定端44a〜47aをチャンバ11の底部平面に固定するためのものであり、ねじ孔に垂直な断面において遊びが少ない真円形に形成されている。一方、支持用のねじ孔49は、固定端44a〜47aに対向する他端である自由端44b〜47bを、固定端を起点として変位自在に支持するものであり、ねじ孔に垂直な断面において長尺状物の長さ方向に長い楕円形若しくは両端が半円となる矩形に形成されている。   The fixing screw hole 48 is for fixing the fixed ends 44a to 47a of the long object to the bottom plane of the chamber 11, and is formed in a true circle with little play in a cross section perpendicular to the screw hole. On the other hand, the supporting screw hole 49 supports the free ends 44b to 47b, which are the other ends facing the fixed ends 44a to 47a, so as to be displaceable from the fixed end, and in a cross section perpendicular to the screw holes. It is formed in an ellipse that is long in the length direction of the long object or a rectangle that is semicircular at both ends.

支持用のねじ孔49は少なくとも1つ設けられるが、長尺状物44〜47の長さに応じて2つ又はそれ以上設けることもできる。このとき各支持用のねじ孔49は、例えば等間隔に設けることが好ましい。支持用のねじ孔49の長径は、各長尺状物44〜47が熱膨張しても、支持用のねじ孔49に装着された支持ねじが長尺状物の熱膨張を規制しない程度の長さを有するものとし、長径の長さは、例えば、第8世代と呼ばれるFPD用ガラス基板を処理する際には、16mm〜20mmであることが好ましいが、処理するガラス基板のサイズに応じて設定される。   At least one screw hole 49 for support is provided, but two or more screw holes 49 may be provided according to the length of the long objects 44 to 47. At this time, it is preferable to provide the screw holes 49 for support at regular intervals, for example. The major diameter of the support screw hole 49 is such that the support screw mounted in the support screw hole 49 does not restrict the thermal expansion of the long object even if each of the long objects 44 to 47 is thermally expanded. For example, when processing a glass substrate for FPD called 8th generation, the length of the major axis is preferably 16 mm to 20 mm, depending on the size of the glass substrate to be processed. Is set.

固定用のねじ孔48に装着される固定ねじの締め付けトルクは、支持用のねじ孔49に装着される支持ねじの締め付けトルクよりも大きくすることが好ましい。これによって、長尺状物44〜47の固定端44a〜47aを確実に固定し、また、自由端44b〜47bを緩く支持して熱膨張時又は熱収縮時のその変位を確保することができる。   The tightening torque of the fixing screw attached to the fixing screw hole 48 is preferably larger than the tightening torque of the support screw attached to the supporting screw hole 49. As a result, the fixed ends 44a to 47a of the long objects 44 to 47 can be securely fixed, and the free ends 44b to 47b can be loosely supported to ensure displacement during thermal expansion or thermal contraction. .

固定ねじの締め付けトルクは、例えば15〜20kgf・cm(1.5〜2.0N・m)程度であり、支持ねじの締め付けトルクは、固定ねじの締め付けトルクよりも若干小さく、例えば10〜15kgf・cm(1.0〜1.5N・m)程度である。ただし、膨張による延び量を制限する必要がある場合などにおいては、これらのトルクを、長尺状物が破損しない程度の範囲内でより強く締め、長尺状物の変位を制約することも可能である。   The tightening torque of the fixing screw is, for example, about 15 to 20 kgf · cm (1.5 to 2.0 N · m), and the tightening torque of the support screw is slightly smaller than the tightening torque of the fixing screw, for example, 10 to 15 kgf · cm. It is about cm (1.0 to 1.5 N · m). However, when it is necessary to limit the amount of extension due to expansion, it is also possible to restrict the displacement of the long object by tightening these torques more strongly within a range that does not damage the long object. It is.

長尺状物44〜47相互の当接部の内側面は曲面を呈しており、各長尺状物44〜47の一端の側面には曲面を形成する突出部44c〜47cが設けられている。これによって、外側部材42と後述する内側部材41とでOリング43の全周を確実に支持することができ、Oリング43によるチャンバ11内部の真空領域と内部部材41で囲まれた大気領域50とを確実に区画することができる。   The inner surfaces of the abutting portions of the long objects 44 to 47 are curved, and protrusions 44c to 47c that form curved surfaces are provided on the side surfaces of one end of each of the long objects 44 to 47. . Accordingly, the entire circumference of the O-ring 43 can be reliably supported by the outer member 42 and the inner member 41 described later, and the atmosphere region 50 surrounded by the vacuum region inside the chamber 11 by the O-ring 43 and the inner member 41. Can be reliably partitioned.

なお、長尺状物44〜47相互の当接部の内側面は実質的に直角の角部であってもよく、この場合、長尺状物44〜47として、突起部を有さない矩形の外形を有するものが適用される。   The inner side surfaces of the contact portions of the long objects 44 to 47 may be substantially perpendicular corners. In this case, as the long objects 44 to 47, a rectangular shape having no protrusions. The one having the outer shape is applied.

外側部材42は、Oリング43の長さ方向に直交する断面においてOリング43の外側面側にのみ存在する(図2及び図3参照)。すなわち、各長尺状物44〜47はOリング43を挟んだり、収容することがなく、Oリング43を拘束しない。これによって、後述の図4に示すように、外部部材を構成する各長尺状物44〜47が加熱され、その自由端44b〜47bがその長さ方向に沿って変位したとしても、長尺状物44〜47がOリング43をねじることがなく、チャンバ内の真空領域と大気領域50とを安定に区画する。また、Oリング43はねじられないので、Oリング43の損傷、磨耗、劣化などを防止することができる。   The outer member 42 exists only on the outer surface side of the O-ring 43 in a cross section orthogonal to the length direction of the O-ring 43 (see FIGS. 2 and 3). That is, the long objects 44 to 47 do not sandwich or house the O-ring 43 and do not restrain the O-ring 43. As a result, as shown in FIG. 4 to be described later, even when the long objects 44 to 47 constituting the external member are heated and the free ends 44b to 47b are displaced along the length direction, the long objects 44 to 47 are long. The shapes 44 to 47 do not twist the O-ring 43 and stably partition the vacuum region and the atmospheric region 50 in the chamber. Further, since the O-ring 43 is not twisted, damage, wear, deterioration, etc. of the O-ring 43 can be prevented.

図3は、図2の絶縁部材を図1の基板処理装置に組み込んだ状態における要部を示す断面図である。   3 is a cross-sectional view showing a main part in a state in which the insulating member of FIG. 2 is incorporated in the substrate processing apparatus of FIG.

図3において、Oリング43の長さ方向に直交する断面形状(以下、単に「断面形状」という。)の高さは、外部部材42及び内部部材41の高さ寸法よりも若干大きい。Oリング43の断面形状における上下端はそれぞれそれ以外の部分よりも太くなっており、且つその一部である下方端は、チャンバ11の底部平面51に設けられた凹部に嵌合し、これによって安定に支持、固定されている。Oリング43の断面形状における上方端は、サセプタ12を形成する基材13の下側面に当接しており、これによってチャンバ11内の処理空間Sとしての真空領域と内部部材41で囲まれた大気領域50とを確実に区画して真空領域の真空度を維持している。   In FIG. 3, the height of the cross-sectional shape orthogonal to the length direction of the O-ring 43 (hereinafter simply referred to as “cross-sectional shape”) is slightly larger than the height dimension of the external member 42 and the internal member 41. The upper and lower ends of the cross-sectional shape of the O-ring 43 are thicker than the other portions, and the lower end, which is a part of the O-ring 43, is fitted into a recess provided in the bottom flat surface 51 of the chamber 11, thereby Stablely supported and fixed. The upper end in the cross-sectional shape of the O-ring 43 is in contact with the lower surface of the base material 13 forming the susceptor 12, and thereby the atmosphere surrounded by the vacuum region as the processing space S in the chamber 11 and the internal member 41. The degree of vacuum in the vacuum region is maintained by reliably partitioning the region 50.

内部部材41は、複数に分割された構成部材の組合せ体で構成されており、各構成部材相互間には、熱膨張による変位を吸収するための隙間41aが形成されている。内部部材41を平面視した際に内部部材41の矩形の角部に相当する構成部材は、その外側面がOリング43の内側面を均等に支持できるような曲面を有するL字状の分割部材で構成されている。   The internal member 41 is composed of a combination of constituent members divided into a plurality of parts, and a gap 41a for absorbing displacement due to thermal expansion is formed between the constituent members. The structural member corresponding to the rectangular corner of the internal member 41 when the internal member 41 is viewed in plan is an L-shaped divided member having a curved surface whose outer surface can uniformly support the inner surface of the O-ring 43. It consists of

このような構成の絶縁部材14を組み込んだ図1の基板処理装置10を用い、基板Gにプラズマエッチング処理を施す際、処理目的に応じて加熱される下部電極からの伝熱等によって絶縁部材14は加熱され、熱膨張する。   When the substrate processing apparatus 10 of FIG. 1 incorporating the insulating member 14 having such a configuration is used and the substrate G is subjected to plasma etching, the insulating member 14 is transferred by heat transfer from the lower electrode heated according to the processing purpose. Is heated and expands thermally.

図4は、絶縁部材の角部の部分拡大図であって、図4(A)及び図4(C)は、熱膨張前の状態を示す図であり、図4(B)及び図4(D)は、熱膨張後の状態を示す図である。   FIG. 4 is a partially enlarged view of a corner portion of the insulating member. FIGS. 4A and 4C are views showing a state before thermal expansion, and FIG. 4B and FIG. (D) is a figure which shows the state after thermal expansion.

図4(A)において、長尺状物44の自由端44bは、隣接する長尺状物47の固定端47aの側面よりも所定幅だけ引っ込んでいる。一方、熱膨張後の状態を示す図4(B)において、長尺状物44は固定端44a(図示省略)を起点としてその長さ方向に延伸し、これによって自由端44bは変位しており、自由端44bの端面は隣接する長尺状物47の固定端47aの側面と、いわゆる面一になっている。   In FIG. 4A, the free end 44 b of the long object 44 is retracted by a predetermined width from the side surface of the fixed end 47 a of the adjacent long object 47. On the other hand, in FIG. 4B showing the state after thermal expansion, the long object 44 extends in the length direction from a fixed end 44a (not shown), and the free end 44b is displaced thereby. The end surface of the free end 44b is so-called flush with the side surface of the fixed end 47a of the adjacent long object 47.

本実施の形態によれば、外側部材42を構成する各長尺状物44〜47の長さ方向の一端である固定端の端面が、隣接する他の長尺状物の長さ方向の自由端の側面に当接し、他端である自由端の側面が、隣接する他の長尺状物とは異なる隣接する別の長尺状物の長さ方向の一端である固定端の端面に当接するようにそれぞれ隙間なく組合せられ、且つ各長尺状物44〜47の固定端44a〜47aを固定用のねじ孔48に装着される固定ねじによって確実に固定し、他端である自由端44b〜47bを支持用のねじ孔49に装着される支持ねじによって熱膨張又は熱収縮方向に変位可能に支持するようにしたので、自由端44b〜47bの移動方向に他の長尺状物が存在せず、これによって、長尺状物44〜47が熱膨張しても長尺状物相互間に相手を押圧する力及び隙間が発生することがない。従って、外側部材42の内部に配置されたOリング43へのプラズマの進入を阻止し、プラズマが照射されることによるOリング43の劣化を防止することができる。   According to the present embodiment, the end face of the fixed end, which is one end in the length direction of each of the long objects 44 to 47 constituting the outer member 42, is free in the length direction of other adjacent long objects. The side surface of the free end, which is the other end, abuts the side surface of the end, and the end surface of the fixed end that is one end in the length direction of another adjacent long object different from the other adjacent long object. The fixed ends 44a to 47a of the long objects 44 to 47 are securely fixed by the fixing screws mounted in the fixing screw holes 48, and the other ends are free ends 44b. ˜47b is supported by a support screw mounted in the support screw hole 49 so as to be displaceable in the direction of thermal expansion or contraction, so that there is another long object in the moving direction of the free ends 44b to 47b. Without this, even if the long objects 44 to 47 are thermally expanded, the long objects The Power and the gap to press is not able to generate an opponent. Accordingly, it is possible to prevent the plasma from entering the O-ring 43 disposed inside the outer member 42 and to prevent the O-ring 43 from being deteriorated due to the plasma irradiation.

また、本実施の形態によれば、外側部材42を長尺状物44〜47の組合せ体で構成したので、各長尺状物44〜47の形状を、例えば略短冊状の簡易形状とすることができ、これによって、長尺状物44〜47及び外側部材42、ひいては絶縁部材14の製作コストを削減することができる。   Moreover, according to this Embodiment, since the outer member 42 was comprised with the combination body of the elongate objects 44-47, the shape of each elongate object 44-47 is made into a substantially strip-shaped simple shape, for example. This can reduce the manufacturing cost of the long objects 44 to 47 and the outer member 42 and thus the insulating member 14.

本実施の形態において、長尺状物44の自由端44bは、隣接する長尺状物47の固定端47aの外側面よりも該長尺状物44の熱膨張による延伸幅に相当する長さ分だけ引っ込んだ状態となるように長尺状物44の長さを選定しておくことが好ましい。これによって、長尺状物44が熱膨張によってその長さ方向に延伸したとしても、その自由端44bが隣接する長尺状物47の固定端47aの外側面から突出することがなく、他のチャンバ内構成部品への衝突を回避することができる。   In the present embodiment, the free end 44b of the long object 44 is longer than the outer surface of the fixed end 47a of the adjacent long object 47 by a length corresponding to the stretching width due to the thermal expansion of the long object 44. It is preferable to select the length of the long object 44 so as to be in a retracted state. As a result, even if the long object 44 extends in the length direction due to thermal expansion, the free end 44b does not protrude from the outer surface of the fixed end 47a of the adjacent long object 47. Collisions with the components in the chamber can be avoided.

なお、長尺状物44の自由端44bの端部を、図4(C)に示すようにあらかじめ隣接する長尺状物47の固定端47aの外側面とツライチにし、熱膨張時には図4(D)に示すように固定端47aの側面から突出するようにしておき、隣接する別のチャンバ内部品に、長尺状物44の熱膨張による延伸幅に相当する幅を有する凹部を設け、これによって当該隣接する別のチャンバ内部品と長尺状物44との衝突を避けるようにしてもよい。   As shown in FIG. 4C, the end of the free end 44b of the long object 44 is preliminarily formed with the outer surface of the fixed end 47a of the adjacent long object 47, and the thermal expansion shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. D), the projection is protruded from the side surface of the fixed end 47a, and a concave portion having a width corresponding to the extending width due to the thermal expansion of the long object 44 is provided in another adjacent chamber part. Thus, the collision between the adjacent parts in the chamber and the elongated object 44 may be avoided.

本実施の形態において、長尺状物44の熱膨張によって、図4(B)に示したように、該長尺状物44とOリング43との間に隙間52が生じるが、長尺状物44の自由端44bの側面と長尺状物47の固定端47aの端面との当接状態は確保されるので、プラズマの進入によってOリング43の劣化が生じることはない。   In the present embodiment, the thermal expansion of the long object 44 causes a gap 52 between the long object 44 and the O-ring 43 as shown in FIG. Since the contact state between the side surface of the free end 44b of the object 44 and the end surface of the fixed end 47a of the long object 47 is ensured, the O-ring 43 is not deteriorated by the entrance of plasma.

本実施の形態において、外側部材41を構成する長尺状物44〜47は、絶縁性材料、例えばポリテトラフルオロエチレン(商品名:テフロン(登録商標))等で構成される。   In the present embodiment, the long objects 44 to 47 constituting the outer member 41 are made of an insulating material such as polytetrafluoroethylene (trade name: Teflon (registered trademark)).

本実施の形態において、長尺状物44〜47における固定用のねじ孔48は、該長尺状物44〜47の固定端44a〜47aの端面に極力近い位置にあることが好ましく、固定端の端部から、例えば、30〜40mmの位置に設けられる。固定用のねじ孔48と固定端の端面との間隔が数百mm以上となると、その部分の熱膨張が無視できなくなり、各長尺状物の固定端と、該固定端に当接する他のリング構成部品との接合面に歪みが発生する虞がある。   In the present embodiment, the fixing screw holes 48 in the long objects 44 to 47 are preferably located as close as possible to the end surfaces of the fixed ends 44 a to 47 a of the long objects 44 to 47. For example, it is provided in the position of 30-40 mm from the edge part. When the interval between the fixing screw hole 48 and the end face of the fixed end is several hundred mm or more, the thermal expansion of that portion can not be ignored, and the fixed end of each long object and the other end contacting the fixed end There is a risk of distortion occurring at the joint surface with the ring component.

本実施の形態において、Oリング43は、耐熱性の弾性部材、例えばバイトン等で構成されている。   In the present embodiment, the O-ring 43 is composed of a heat-resistant elastic member such as Viton.
