The present invention relates to a support member and a substrate processing apparatus having the same, and more particularly, to a support member having a chucking pin for chucking and unchucking a substrate and an apparatus for treating the substrate.
In general, semiconductor integrated circuit chips are manufactured by iterative or selective performance of unit processes such as deposition, photolithography, etching, chemical mechanical polishing, cleaning, drying and the like. Among these unit processes, a cleaning process is a process of removing foreign substances or unnecessary films attached to the surface of the semiconductor substrate during each unit process.
Among the apparatuses for performing the cleaning process, the sheet type substrate cleaning apparatus cleans the substrate by spraying the processing fluid onto the processing surface of the substrate while rotating the single wafer at a high speed. Typical single wafer spin cleaning apparatus includes a housing, a support member, and a nozzle. The housing has a cylindrical container shape with an open top, and the support member supports the substrate inside the housing during the process. The nozzle sprays the cleaning liquid onto the substrate rotated by the support member during the process. In the cleaning process, the support member is rotated to rotate the substrate at a predetermined rotational speed, so that the support member is provided with means for preventing the substrate from being separated from the support member by centrifugal force. As the substrate fixing means, a method of fixing a substrate by using a plurality of chucking pins on a supporting member is widely used.
In the supporting member having the chucking pins, the chucking pins fix the substrate by chucking a part of the edge of the substrate during the process. However, a method of fixing a substrate by using general chucking pins does not effectively fix the substrate in the process, so that the substrate is separated from the support member in the process.
In addition, in the substrate cleaning apparatus having general chucking pins, the processing liquid used in the process remains around the chucking pins, thereby reducing the cleaning efficiency of the substrate. In particular, the phenomenon that the treatment liquid is accumulated in the contact portion of the chucking pin in contact with the substrate, the phenomenon that the substrate edge portion in contact with the chucking pin is contaminated by the treatment liquid remaining on the chucking pin.
In addition, since the substrate cleaning apparatus having the general chucking pins rotates the substrate fixed by the chucking pins at a high speed during the process, damage occurs at the edges of the substrate chucked by the chucking pins.
The present invention provides a support member and a substrate processing apparatus having the same to prevent the substrate from being separated from the support member.

The apparatus further includes an anti-separation unit for preventing the seizure in the upward direction, wherein the contact portion and the connection portion of the anti-separation unit are rounded.
According to an embodiment of the present invention, the height of the outer circumferential surface of the contact portion is equal to the thickness of the substrate.
