Description
本發明係關於將重合基板剝離成被處理基板和支撐基板之剝離系統、使用該剝離系統之剝離方法及電腦記憶媒體。 The present invention relates to a peeling system for peeling a superposed substrate into a substrate to be processed and a supporting substrate, a peeling method using the peeling system, and a computer memory medium.
近年來,在例如半導體裝置之製造過程中,朝向半導體晶圓(以下,稱為「晶圓」)之大口徑化。再者,在安裝等之特定工程中,要求晶圓之薄型化。例如,當將大口徑且薄之晶圓原樣地進行搬運或進行研磨處理之時,則晶圓有可能產生翹曲或破裂之情形。因此,為了補強晶圓,進行在例如支撐基板之晶圓或玻璃基板貼上晶圓。然後,在如此晶圓和支撐基板接合之狀態下,進行晶圓之研磨處理等之規定的處理之後,剝離晶圓和支撐基板。 In recent years, for example, in the manufacturing process of a semiconductor device, the diameter of the semiconductor wafer (hereinafter referred to as "wafer") has been increased to a large extent. Furthermore, in a specific project such as mounting, the wafer is required to be thinned. For example, when a large-diameter and thin wafer is handled as it is or subjected to a grinding process, the wafer may be warped or broken. Therefore, in order to reinforce the wafer, a wafer is attached to, for example, a wafer or a glass substrate supporting the substrate. Then, after the wafer and the support substrate are bonded to each other, a predetermined process such as a polishing process of the wafer is performed, and then the wafer and the support substrate are peeled off.
如此晶圓和支撐基板之剝離例如使用剝離裝置進行。該剝離裝置具有保持例如晶圓之第1保持器、保持支撐基板之第2保持器及對晶圓和支撐基板之間噴射液體的噴嘴。然後,在該剝離裝置中,藉由從噴嘴以大於該晶圓和支撐基板之間之接合強度的噴射壓,理想為大於接合強度兩倍以上之噴射壓,對接合之晶圓和支撐基板之間,即是晶圓和支撐基板之接合面噴射液體,來進行晶圓和支撐基板之剝離(專利文獻1)。 Such peeling of the wafer and the support substrate is performed, for example, using a peeling device. The peeling device has a first holder that holds, for example, a wafer, a second holder that holds the support substrate, and a nozzle that ejects liquid between the wafer and the support substrate. Then, in the stripping device, by the ejection pressure from the nozzle which is greater than the bonding strength between the wafer and the supporting substrate, it is desirable to be more than twice the bonding strength of the bonding strength, and the bonded wafer and the supporting substrate are In the meantime, the liquid is ejected from the joint surface of the wafer and the support substrate to peel off the wafer and the support substrate (Patent Document 1).
[專利文獻1]日本特開平9-167724號公報 [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. Hei 9-167724
然而,當晶圓和支撐基板被剝離時,被剝離之晶圓被搬運至特定之處理裝置,再者在該處理裝置中對晶圓進行特定之處理。在該晶圓之搬運或處理中,因回避被形成在晶圓上之特定圖案之裝置之損傷,故以非接觸狀態保持晶圓為佳。 However, when the wafer and the support substrate are peeled off, the stripped wafer is transported to a specific processing device, and the wafer is specifically processed in the processing device. In the handling or processing of the wafer, it is preferable to hold the wafer in a non-contact state by evading the damage of the device formed on the specific pattern on the wafer.
於是,為了保持被剝離之晶圓,使用例如白努利吸盤(Bernoulli chuck)。白努利吸盤係藉由從該吸盤之表面噴出空氣,使晶圓懸浮,以非接觸之狀態吸引晶圓而加以懸吊保持。 Thus, in order to maintain the stripped wafer, for example, a Bernoulli chuck is used. The white Nuo suction cup suspends the wafer by suspending air from the surface of the suction cup, suspending the wafer in a non-contact state, and suspending and holding it.
但是,因在晶圓上形成裝置,而且晶圓被薄型化,故有晶圓之外周部變形之情形。此時,因白努利吸盤之吸引力不足,故有無將外周部變形之晶圓保持水平之情形。如此一來,無法適當地進行晶圓之搬運或對晶圓進行的特定處理。 However, since the device is formed on the wafer and the wafer is thinned, there is a case where the outer peripheral portion of the wafer is deformed. At this time, since the attraction of the Cannino suction cup is insufficient, there is a case where the wafer in which the outer peripheral portion is deformed is maintained at a level. As a result, wafer handling or specific processing of the wafer cannot be performed properly.
本發明係鑒於如此之點而創作出,其目的為適當保持從重合基板被剝離之被處理基板,並適當進行該被處理基板之搬運或處理。 The present invention has been made in view of such a point, and an object thereof is to appropriately hold a substrate to be processed which has been peeled off from a superposed substrate, and to appropriately carry or handle the substrate to be processed.
為了達成上述目的,本發明係將以接著劑接合被處理基板和支撐基板的重合基板剝離成被處理基板和支撐基板的剝離裝置,其特徵為具有:於搬運或處理從重合基板剝離之被處理基板之時,以非接觸狀態保持該被處理基板之保持部,在上述保持部之表面形成有噴出氣體之複數之噴出口和吸引氣體之複數之吸引口。並且,非接觸狀態係指被處理基板和保持部為非接觸之狀態。 In order to achieve the above object, the present invention relates to a peeling apparatus for peeling a superposed substrate of a substrate to be processed and a supporting substrate into a substrate to be processed and a supporting substrate by an adhesive, which is characterized in that it is processed to be handled or processed to be peeled off from the superposed substrate. At the time of the substrate, the holding portion of the substrate to be processed is held in a non-contact state, and a plurality of ejection ports for ejecting gas and a plurality of suction ports for attracting gas are formed on the surface of the holding portion. Further, the non-contact state refers to a state in which the substrate to be processed and the holding portion are in non-contact state.
若藉由本發明時,可以對重合基板剝離之被處理基板,從保持部之噴出口噴出氣體,並且從吸引口吸引氣體。如此一來,在保持部和被處理基板之間,可以形成從噴出口朝向吸引口的氣流。而且,因在保持部之表面形成複數之噴出口和吸引口,故可以形成複數從噴出口朝向吸引口之氣流。藉由該複數之氣流,可以增大保持部對被處理基板之吸引力。即是,可以增大足夠將漂浮狀態之被處理基板保持水平的剛性(漂浮剛性)。因此,即使在例如被薄型化之被處理基板之外周部變形之狀態下,藉由保持部,矯正被處理基板之變形,可以適當保持被處理基板。因此,可以適當地進行如此被保持部保持之被處理基板之搬運或處理。並且,保持部因藉由從噴出口朝向吸引口之氣流,可以以非接觸狀態保持被處理基板,故也可以回避被形成在被處理基板上之裝置受到損傷。 According to the present invention, it is possible to eject the gas from the discharge port of the holding portion to the substrate to be processed from which the superposed substrate is peeled off, and to suck the gas from the suction port. In this way, an air flow from the discharge port toward the suction port can be formed between the holding portion and the substrate to be processed. Further, since a plurality of discharge ports and suction ports are formed on the surface of the holding portion, a plurality of air flows from the discharge port toward the suction port can be formed. By the plurality of air flows, the attraction of the holding portion to the substrate to be processed can be increased. That is, it is possible to increase the rigidity (floating rigidity) sufficient to maintain the horizontally processed substrate to be horizontal. Therefore, even in a state in which the peripheral portion is deformed, for example, in a thinned substrate to be processed, the deformation of the substrate to be processed is corrected by the holding portion, and the substrate to be processed can be appropriately held. Therefore, the conveyance or processing of the substrate to be processed held by the holding portion can be appropriately performed. Further, since the holding portion can hold the substrate to be processed in a non-contact state by the airflow from the discharge port toward the suction port, the device formed on the substrate to be processed can be prevented from being damaged.
上述複數之噴出口和上述複數之吸引口即使各在上述保持部之表面,被形成涵蓋對應於所保持之被處理基板的位置全體上亦可。 The plurality of discharge ports and the plurality of suction ports may be formed on the entire surface of the holding portion so as to cover the entire position corresponding to the substrate to be processed.

On the surface of the holding portion 60, that is, the holding surface 61 for holding the wafer W to be processed, a plurality of ejection ports 62 for ejecting a gas such as air, and a plurality of suction ports 63 for attracting gas are formed. The plurality of discharge ports 62 and the plurality of suction ports 63 are formed to cover all of the positions corresponding to the wafer W to be processed held by the holding portion 60. For example, in the present embodiment, the cover surface 61 is formed to cover the entire surface. Furthermore, the plural spray The outlet 62 and the plurality of suction ports 63 are alternately arranged in a lattice shape.
在各噴出口62連接有與供給氣體之氣體供給源64連通之供給管65。再者,在各吸引口63連接有吸引氣體,例如與真空泵等之負壓產生裝置66連通之吸引管67。並且,在圖示之例中,供給管65雖然在厚度方向貫通保持部60,但是即使在保持部60之內部將複數供給管65纏成一根供給管,纏綑的供給管連接於氣體供給源64亦可。同樣,雖然吸引管67也在厚度方向貫通保持部60,但是即使在保持部60之內部將複數吸引管67纏成一根吸引管,纏綑的吸引管連接於負壓產生裝置66亦可。 A supply pipe 65 that communicates with the gas supply source 64 that supplies the gas is connected to each of the discharge ports 62. Further, a suction pipe 67 is connected to each suction port 63, for example, a suction pipe 67 that communicates with a negative pressure generating device 66 such as a vacuum pump. Further, in the illustrated example, the supply pipe 65 penetrates the holding portion 60 in the thickness direction, but the plurality of supply pipes 65 are wound into one supply pipe inside the holding portion 60, and the bundled supply pipe is connected to the gas supply source. 64 is also available. Similarly, although the suction pipe 67 penetrates the holding portion 60 in the thickness direction, even if the plurality of suction pipes 67 are wound into one suction pipe inside the holding portion 60, the bundled suction pipe may be connected to the negative pressure generating device 66.
然後,在保持部60中,對被處理晶圓W,從噴出口62噴出氣體,並且從吸引口63吸引氣體。如此一來,如第3圖及第4圖之箭號所示般,在保持部60和被處理晶圓W之間的間隙D,可以形成從噴出口62朝向吸引口63之氣流F。而且,該些氣流F被形成涵蓋保持面61全面。藉由如此之複數之氣流F,保持部60產生大的吸引力,而可以以非接觸狀態保持被處理晶圓W。即是,可以增大足夠將漂浮狀態之被處理晶圓W保持水平的剛性(漂浮剛性)。再者,藉由使從噴出口62噴出氣體之力和從吸引口63吸引氣體之力平衡,可以將被處理晶圓W和保持部60之間的距離保持在特定之距離,並可以確實維持保持部60和被處理晶圓W之非接觸狀態。 Then, in the holding portion 60, gas is ejected from the ejection port 62 to the wafer W to be processed, and gas is sucked from the suction port 63. As a result, as shown by arrows in FIGS. 3 and 4, the airflow F from the discharge port 62 toward the suction port 63 can be formed in the gap D between the holding portion 60 and the wafer W to be processed. Moreover, the airflows F are formed to cover the entire face 61. With such a plurality of airflows F, the holding portion 60 generates a large attractive force, and the wafer W to be processed can be held in a non-contact state. That is, it is possible to increase the rigidity (floating rigidity) sufficient to keep the wafer W to be processed in a floating state horizontal. Further, by balancing the force of ejecting gas from the discharge port 62 and the force of attracting gas from the suction port 63, the distance between the wafer W to be processed and the holding portion 60 can be maintained at a specific distance, and can be surely maintained. The holding portion 60 and the wafer W to be processed are in a non-contact state.
然而,如上述般因被處理晶圓W薄型化,故有該被處理晶圓W之外周部變形之情形。即使在如此之情形 下,藉由保持部60之大吸引力,即是大漂浮剛性,矯正被處理晶圓W之變形,而可以適當保持該被處理晶圓W。 However, as described above, since the wafer W to be processed is made thinner, the outer peripheral portion of the wafer W to be processed is deformed. Even in such a situation Next, the deformation of the wafer W to be processed is corrected by the large attraction force of the holding portion 60, that is, the large floating rigidity, and the wafer W to be processed can be appropriately held.
再者,保持部60因可以非接觸狀態保持被處理晶圓W,故可以迴避該被處理晶圓W上之裝置受到損傷。並且,即使例如在保持部60附著微粒之時,該微粒也不會有附著於被處理晶圓W之情形。 Further, since the holding portion 60 can hold the wafer W to be processed in a non-contact state, the device on the wafer W to be processed can be prevented from being damaged. Further, even when particles are adhered to the holding portion 60, for example, the particles do not adhere to the wafer W to be processed.
並且,在本實施形態中,雖然複數之噴出口62和複數之吸引口63交互配置成格子狀,但是該些之配置或數量可以任意設定。但是,複數之噴出口62和複數之吸引口63被配置成從噴出口62朝向吸引口63之氣流F形成涵蓋保持面61全面為佳。再者,噴出口62之數量和吸引口63之數量相等為佳。 Further, in the present embodiment, the plurality of discharge ports 62 and the plurality of suction ports 63 are alternately arranged in a lattice shape, but the arrangement or the number thereof may be arbitrarily set. However, it is preferable that the plurality of discharge ports 62 and the plurality of suction ports 63 are disposed such that the airflow F from the discharge port 62 toward the suction port 63 covers the holding surface 61. Further, the number of the discharge ports 62 and the number of the suction ports 63 are preferably equal.
並且,在以下之說明中,保持部60雖然依所設置之裝置表示保持部60a~60f,但是該些保持部60a~60f具有與上述保持部60相同之構成。 In the following description, the holding portion 60 indicates the holding portions 60a to 60f according to the installed device, but the holding portions 60a to 60f have the same configuration as the holding portion 60 described above.

接著,針對上述檢查裝置7之構成予以說明。檢查裝置7係如第11圖及第12圖所示般具有處理容器290。在處理容器290之側面,形成被處理晶圓W之搬入搬出口(無圖示),在該搬入搬出口設置有開關快門(無圖示)。 Next, the configuration of the above-described inspection device 7 will be described. The inspection device 7 has a processing container 290 as shown in Figs. 11 and 12. On the side of the processing container 290, a loading/unloading port (not shown) of the processed wafer W is formed, and a switching shutter (not shown) is provided at the loading/unloading port.
在處理容器290內設置有保持被處理晶圓W之吸盤 300。吸盤300具有平板狀之本體部301。在本體部301之上面側配置有上述之保持部60f。保持部60f係對被處理晶圓W,從噴出口62噴出氣體,並且從吸引口63吸引氣體。然後,保持部60f係以非接觸狀態保持被處理晶圓W。 A suction cup for holding the processed wafer W is disposed in the processing container 290. 300. The suction cup 300 has a flat body portion 301. The above-described holding portion 60f is disposed on the upper surface side of the main body portion 301. The holding portion 60f discharges the gas from the discharge port 62 against the wafer W to be processed, and sucks the gas from the suction port 63. Then, the holding portion 60f holds the wafer W to be processed in a non-contact state.
在吸盤300之下方設置有吸盤驅動部302。藉由該吸盤驅動部302,吸盤300旋轉自如。再者,吸盤驅動部302係被設置在處理容器290內之底面,且被安裝於沿著Y方向而延伸之軌道303上。藉由該吸盤驅動部302,吸盤300可以沿著軌道303而移動。即是,吸盤300係可以使被處理晶圓W在用以在與處理容器290之外部之間搬入搬出之收授位置P1,和調整被處理晶圓W之槽口部之位置的對準位置P2之間移動。 A suction cup driving portion 302 is provided below the suction cup 300. The chuck 300 is rotatable by the chuck driving unit 302. Further, the chuck driving unit 302 is provided on the bottom surface of the processing container 290, and is attached to the rail 303 extending in the Y direction. With the chuck driving portion 302, the chuck 300 can be moved along the rail 303. That is, the suction cup 300 is an alignment position at which the processed wafer W can be loaded and unloaded between the processing container 290 and the position of the notch portion of the processed wafer W. Move between P2.
在對準位置P2設置有檢測被保持於吸盤300之被處理晶圓W之槽口部之位置的感測器304。一面藉由感測器304檢測出槽口部之位置,一面藉由吸盤驅動部302使吸盤300旋轉,可以調節被處理晶圓W之槽口部之位置。 A sensor 304 that detects the position of the notch portion of the wafer W to be processed held by the chuck 300 is provided at the alignment position P2. When the position of the notch portion is detected by the sensor 304, the suction cup 300 is rotated by the suction cup driving unit 302, whereby the position of the notch portion of the wafer W to be processed can be adjusted.
在處理容器290之對準位置P2側之側面,設置有攝像裝置310。攝像裝置310使用例如廣角型之CCD照相機。在處理容器290之上部中央附近設置有半透鏡311。半透鏡311係被設置在與攝像裝置310對向之位置,從垂直方向傾斜45度而被設置。在半透鏡311之上方,設置可以變更照度之照明裝置312,半透鏡311和照明裝置312係被固定在處理容器290之上面。再者,攝像裝置 310、半透鏡311及照明裝置312各被設置在被保持於吸盤300之被處理晶圓W之上方。然後,來自照明裝置312之照明係通過半透鏡311而朝下方照射。因此,位於該照射區域之物體的反射光,在半透鏡311反射,並被取入至攝像裝置310。即是,攝像裝置310係可以攝影位於照射區域的物體。然後,攝像到之被處理晶圓W之畫像被輸出至後述之控制部350,在控制部350中檢查被處理晶圓W上有無接著劑G之殘渣。 On the side of the processing container 290 on the side of the alignment position P2, an image pickup device 310 is provided. The imaging device 310 uses, for example, a wide-angle type CCD camera. A half mirror 311 is provided near the center of the upper portion of the processing container 290. The half mirror 311 is provided at a position opposed to the imaging device 310, and is inclined by 45 degrees from the vertical direction. Above the half mirror 311, an illumination device 312 capable of changing the illuminance is provided, and the half mirror 311 and the illumination device 312 are fixed on the processing container 290. Furthermore, the camera 310, the half mirror 311, and the illumination device 312 are each disposed above the wafer W to be processed held by the chuck 300. Then, the illumination from the illumination device 312 is irradiated downward through the half mirror 311. Therefore, the reflected light of the object located in the irradiation area is reflected by the half mirror 311 and taken into the imaging device 310. That is, the imaging device 310 can capture an object located in the irradiation area. Then, the image of the processed wafer W imaged is output to a control unit 350, which will be described later, and the control unit 350 checks whether or not the residue of the adhesive G is present on the wafer W to be processed.
在上述之剝離系統1,如第1圖所示般設置有控制部350。控制部350係例如電腦,具有程式儲存部(無圖示)。在程式儲存部儲存有控制剝離系統1中之被處理晶圓W、支撐晶圓S、重合晶圓T之處理的程式。再者,於程式儲存部也儲存有用以控制上述各種處理裝置或搬運裝置等之驅動系統之動作,而實現剝離系統1中之後述的剝離處理之程式。並且,上述程式,為被記錄於例如電腦可讀取之硬碟(HD)、軟碟(FD)、光碟(CD)、光磁碟(MO)、記憶卡等之電腦可讀取之記憶媒體H者,即使為自其記憶媒體H被存取於控制部350者亦可。 In the above-described peeling system 1, as shown in Fig. 1, a control unit 350 is provided. The control unit 350 is, for example, a computer, and has a program storage unit (not shown). A program for controlling the processed wafer W, the supporting wafer S, and the superposed wafer T in the peeling system 1 is stored in the program storage unit. Further, in the program storage unit, a program for controlling the above-described various processing devices, transport devices, and the like to store the peeling process described later in the peeling system 1 is also stored. Further, the program is a computer readable memory medium recorded on, for example, a computer readable hard disk (HD), a floppy disk (FD), a compact disk (CD), a magnetic disk (MO), a memory card, or the like. H may be accessed from the control unit 350 even from the memory medium H.
接著,針對使用如上述般構成之剝離系統1而執行之被處理晶圓W和支撐晶圓S之剝離處理方法予以說明。第13圖為表示如此之剝離處理之主要工程之例子的流程圖。 Next, a method of peeling off the processed wafer W and the supporting wafer S which are performed using the peeling system 1 configured as described above will be described. Figure 13 is a flow chart showing an example of the main work of such a stripping process.
首先,收容有複數片重合晶圓T之卡匣CT、空的卡匣CW及空的卡匣CS,被載置在搬入搬出站2之特定的卡 匣載置板11。藉由第1搬運裝置20,卡匣CT內之重合晶圓T被取出,被搬運至剝離處理站3之剝離裝置30。此時,重合晶圓T係在將被處理晶圓W配置在上側,並且將支撐晶圓S配置在下側的狀態下被搬運。 First, the cassette C T , the empty cassette C W , and the empty cassette C S in which the plurality of wafers T are stacked are placed on the specific cassette mounting plate 11 of the loading/unloading station 2 . By the first conveying device 20, the superposed wafer T in the cassette C T is taken out and transported to the peeling device 30 of the peeling processing station 3. At this time, the superposed wafer T is transported while the wafer W to be processed is placed on the upper side and the support wafer S is placed on the lower side.
被搬入至剝離裝置30之重合晶圓T被吸附保持在下部吸盤111。之後,藉由移動機構150,使下部吸盤111上升,如第14圖所示般,以上部吸盤110和下部吸盤111夾持重合晶圓T而予以保持。此時,在上部吸盤110之保持部60a以非接觸狀態保持被處理晶圓W之非接合面WN,在下部吸盤111吸附保持支撐晶圓S之非接合面SN。 The superposed wafer T carried into the peeling device 30 is adsorbed and held by the lower chuck 111. Thereafter, the lower suction cup 111 is raised by the moving mechanism 150, and as shown in Fig. 14, the upper suction cup 110 and the lower suction cup 111 are held by sandwiching the superposed wafer T. At this time, the holding portion 60a of the upper chuck 110 holding the wafer W to be processed W N of the non-bonding surface in a non-contact state, the non-bonding SN holding wafer S is supported in a lower portion of the adsorption chuck 111.
之後,重合晶圓T藉由加熱機構121、141被加熱至規定之溫度,例如200℃。如此一來,重合晶圓T中之接著劑G軟化。 Thereafter, the superposed wafer T is heated to a predetermined temperature by the heating means 121, 141, for example, 200 °C. As a result, the adhesive G in the coincident wafer T is softened.
接著,一面藉由加熱機構121、141加熱重合晶圓T而維持接著劑G之軟化狀態,一面如第15圖所示般,藉由移動機構150使下部吸盤111和支撐晶圓S在垂直方向及水平方向,即是斜下方移動。然後,如第16圖所示般,被保持於上部吸盤110之被處理晶圓W和被保持於下部吸盤111之支撐晶圓S被剝離(第13圖之工程A1)。 Next, while the superposed wafer T is heated by the heating mechanisms 121 and 141 to maintain the softened state of the adhesive G, the lower chuck 111 and the supporting wafer S are vertically oriented by the moving mechanism 150 as shown in FIG. And the horizontal direction, that is, moving obliquely downward. Then, as shown in Fig. 16, the processed wafer W held by the upper chuck 110 and the supporting wafer S held by the lower chuck 111 are peeled off (the construction A1 of Fig. 13).
此時,下部吸盤111在垂直方向移動100μm,並且在水平方向移動300mm。在此,在本實施形態中,重合晶圓T中之接著劑G之厚度例如30μm~40μm,形成在被處理晶圓W之接合面WJ之裝置(凸塊)的高度例如20μ m。因此,被處理晶圓W上之裝置和支撐晶圓S之間的距離微小。在此,於例如使下部吸盤111僅在水平方向移動之時,裝置和支撐晶圓S接觸,裝置有可能受到損傷。該點,藉由如本實施形態般使下部吸盤111在水平方向移動,並且也在垂直方向移動,可以迴避裝置和支撐晶圓S之接觸,抑制裝置之損傷。並且,該下部吸盤111之垂直方向之移動距離和水平方向之移動距離之比率係根據被處理晶圓W上之裝置(凸塊)之高度而設定。 At this time, the lower suction cup 111 is moved by 100 μm in the vertical direction and by 300 mm in the horizontal direction. Here, in the present embodiment, the thickness of the adhesive G in the superposed wafer T is, for example, 30 μm to 40 μm, and the height of the device (bump) formed on the bonding surface W J of the wafer W to be processed is, for example, 20 μm. Therefore, the distance between the device on the processed wafer W and the supporting wafer S is small. Here, when the lower chuck 111 is moved only in the horizontal direction, for example, the device comes into contact with the supporting wafer S, and the device may be damaged. At this point, by moving the lower chuck 111 in the horizontal direction as in the present embodiment and also moving in the vertical direction, the contact between the device and the supporting wafer S can be avoided, and the damage of the device can be suppressed. Further, the ratio of the moving distance in the vertical direction of the lower chuck 111 to the moving distance in the horizontal direction is set in accordance with the height of the device (bump) on the wafer W to be processed.
之後,在剝離裝置30被剝離之被處理晶圓W藉由第2搬運裝置32被搬運至第1洗淨裝置31。在此,針對藉由第2搬運裝置32之被處理晶圓W之搬運方法予以說明。 Thereafter, the processed wafer W that has been peeled off by the peeling device 30 is transported to the first cleaning device 31 by the second transfer device 32. Here, a method of transporting the processed wafer W by the second transport device 32 will be described.
如第17圖所示般,使第2搬運裝置32之支撐臂230伸長,而將保持部60c配置在被上部吸盤110保持之被處理晶圓W之下方。之後,使保持部60c上升,停止上部吸盤110之保持部60a中之噴出口62噴出氣體和從吸引口63吸引氣體。然後,被處理晶圓W從上部吸盤110被收授至保持部60c。然後,藉由保持部60c以非接觸狀態保持被處理晶圓W之接合面WJ。 As shown in Fig. 17, the support arm 230 of the second transport device 32 is extended, and the holding portion 60c is placed below the wafer W to be processed held by the upper chuck 110. Thereafter, the holding portion 60c is raised, and the discharge port 62 in the holding portion 60a of the upper chuck 110 is stopped to discharge the gas and suck the gas from the suction port 63. Then, the processed wafer W is taken up from the upper chuck 110 to the holding portion 60c. Then, the holding portion 60c holds the joint surface W J of the wafer W to be processed in a non-contact state.
接著,如第18圖所示般,轉動第2搬運裝置32之支撐臂230而使保持部60c移動至第1洗淨裝置31之吸盤190之上方,並且使保持部60c反轉而使被處理晶圓W朝向下方。此時,使吸盤190上升至較罩杯193上方而進行待機。之後,被處理晶圓W從保持部60c被收授至吸盤 190。然後,藉由吸盤190之保持部60b以非接觸狀態保持被處理晶圓W之非接合面WN。 Then, as shown in Fig. 18, the support arm 230 of the second conveying device 32 is rotated to move the holding portion 60c above the suction cup 190 of the first cleaning device 31, and the holding portion 60c is reversed to be processed. The wafer W faces downward. At this time, the suction cup 190 is raised above the cup 193 to stand by. Thereafter, the processed wafer W is taken up from the holding portion 60c to the chuck 190. Then, the non-joining surface W N of the wafer W to be processed is held in a non-contact state by the holding portion 60b of the chuck 190.
如此,當被處理晶圓W被保持在吸盤190時,則使吸盤190下降至規定之位置。接著,藉由機械臂201使待機部205之洗淨液噴嘴203移動至被處理晶圓W之中心部之上方。之後,一面藉由吸盤190使被處理晶圓W旋轉,一面從洗淨液噴嘴203對被處理晶圓W之接合面WJ供給洗淨液。被供給之洗淨液藉由離心力,被擴散至被處理晶圓W之接合面WJ之全面,洗淨該被處理晶圓W之接合面WJ(第13圖之工程A2)。 Thus, when the wafer W to be processed is held by the chuck 190, the chuck 190 is lowered to a predetermined position. Next, the cleaning nozzle 203 of the standby unit 205 is moved by the robot arm 201 above the center portion of the wafer W to be processed. Thereafter, while the wafer W to be processed is rotated by the chuck 190, the cleaning liquid is supplied from the cleaning liquid nozzle 203 to the bonding surface W J of the wafer W to be processed. The washing liquid is fed by a centrifugal force is diffused to the bonding surface of the wafer W to be processed W J Comprehensively, washing the joint surface of the treated wafer W W J (FIG. 13 Engineering of A2).
在此,對如上述般被搬入至搬入搬出站2之複數重合晶圓T進行事先檢查,判別成含有正常之被處理晶圓W的重合晶圓T和具有缺陷之被處理晶圓W的重合晶圓T。 Here, the plurality of coincident wafers T loaded into the loading/unloading station 2 as described above are inspected in advance, and it is determined that the superposed wafer T including the normal processed wafer W and the processed wafer W having defects are overlapped. Wafer T.
從正常之重合晶圓T剝離之正常的被處理晶圓W於在工程A2中接合面WJ被洗淨之後,以非接合面WN朝向下方之狀態藉由第3搬運裝置51被搬運至檢查裝置7。並且,藉由該第3搬運裝置51之被處理晶圓W之搬運因幾乎與藉由上述第2搬運裝置32之被處理晶圓W之搬運相同,故省略說明。 The normal processed wafer W peeled off from the normal overlap wafer T is transported to the lower surface of the joint surface W J in the process A2, and then transported to the lower side by the third transport device 51 with the non-joining surface W N facing downward. Inspection device 7. In addition, since the conveyance of the wafer W to be processed by the third conveyance device 51 is almost the same as the conveyance of the wafer W to be processed by the second conveyance device 32, description thereof will be omitted.
被搬運至檢查裝置7之被處理晶圓W係在收授位置P1被保持在吸盤300上。此時,吸盤300之保持部60f以非接觸狀態保持被處理晶圓W之非接合面WN。接著,藉由吸盤驅動部302將吸盤300移動至對準位置P2。接 著,一面藉由感測器304檢測出被處理晶圓W之溝口部之位置,一面藉由吸盤驅動部302使吸盤300旋轉。然後,調整被處理晶圓W之槽口部之位置,而將被處理晶圓W配置在特定位置。 The wafer W to be processed conveyed to the inspection device 7 is held on the chuck 300 at the receiving position P1. At this time, the holding portion 60f of the suction cup 300 holds the non-joining surface W N of the wafer W to be processed in a non-contact state. Next, the chuck 300 is moved to the alignment position P2 by the chuck driving unit 302. Next, the position of the groove portion of the wafer W to be processed is detected by the sensor 304, and the chuck 300 is rotated by the chuck driving unit 302. Then, the position of the notch portion of the wafer W to be processed is adjusted, and the wafer W to be processed is placed at a specific position.
之後,藉由吸盤驅動部302使吸盤300從對準位置P2移動至收授位置P1。然後,於被處理晶圓W通過半透鏡311之下時,則從照明裝置312對被處理晶圓W照射照明。藉由該照明之被處理晶圓W上之反射光被取入至攝像裝置310,在攝像裝置310中攝像被處理晶圓W之接合面WJ之畫像。被攝像之被處理晶圓W之接合面WJ之畫像被輸出至控制部350,在控制部350中,檢查被處理晶圓W之接合面WJ中有無接著劑G之殘渣(第13圖之工程A3)。 Thereafter, the suction cup drive unit 302 moves the suction cup 300 from the alignment position P2 to the receiving position P1. Then, when the wafer W to be processed passes under the half mirror 311, the wafer W to be processed is illuminated from the illumination device 312. The reflected light on the processed wafer W by the illumination is taken into the imaging device 310, and an image of the bonding surface W J of the processed wafer W is imaged by the imaging device 310. The image of the joint surface W J of the imaged wafer W to be imaged is output to the control unit 350, and the control unit 350 checks whether or not the residue of the adhesive G is present in the joint surface W J of the wafer W to be processed (Fig. 13). Engineering A3).
在檢查裝置7中,於確認接著劑G之殘渣時,被處理晶圓W藉由第3搬運裝置51,被搬運至檢查後洗淨站8之接合面洗淨裝置40,在接合面洗淨裝置40洗淨接合面WJ(第13圖之工程A4)。並且,即使在該搬運之時,第3搬運裝置51之保持部60c因以非接觸狀態保持被處理晶圓W,故不會有接合面WJ之接著劑G之殘渣附著於第3搬運裝置51之情形。因此,不會有經第3搬運裝置51而在後續之被處理晶圓W附著接著劑G之殘渣的情形。 In the inspection apparatus 7, when the residue of the adhesive G is confirmed, the processed wafer W is transported to the joint surface cleaning apparatus 40 of the post-inspection cleaning station 8 by the third conveyance device 51, and is washed on the joint surface. The device 40 cleans the joint surface W J (the work A4 of Fig. 13). Further, even when the conveyance is performed, the holding portion 60c of the third conveyance device 51 holds the processed wafer W in a non-contact state, so that the residue of the adhesive G of the joint surface W J does not adhere to the third conveyance device. 51 situation. Therefore, there is no possibility that the residue of the adhesive G adheres to the wafer W to be processed subsequent to the third conveyance device 51.
當接合面WJ被洗淨時,被處理晶圓W藉由第3搬運裝置51被搬運至反轉裝置42,藉由反轉裝置42使表背面反轉,即是被反轉至上下方向(第13圖之工程A5)。在 此,針對藉由反轉裝置42之被處理晶圓W之反轉方法予以說明。 When the joint surface W J is washed, the processed wafer W is transported to the inverting device 42 by the third transport device 51, and the front and back surfaces are reversed by the inverting device 42, that is, reversed to the up and down direction. (Project A5 in Figure 13). Here, a method of inverting the processed wafer W by the inversion device 42 will be described.
在接合面洗淨裝置40,接合面WJ被洗淨之被處理晶圓W係如第19圖所示般,在藉由第3搬運裝置51之保持部60c保持接合面WJ之狀態下被搬運至反轉裝置42。然後,被處理晶圓W係在接合面WJ朝向上方之狀態下被收授至反轉裝置42之下部吸盤261。然後,藉由下部吸盤261之保持部60e以非接觸狀態保持被處理晶圓W之非接合面WN。 In the joint surface cleaning apparatus 40, the processed wafer W in which the bonding surface W J is cleaned is in a state where the bonding surface W J is held by the holding portion 60c of the third conveying device 51 as shown in FIG. It is carried to the inverting device 42. Then, the processed wafer W is taken up to the lower suction cup 261 of the inverting device 42 with the joint surface W J facing upward. Then, the non-joining surface W N of the wafer W to be processed is held in a non-contact state by the holding portion 60e of the lower chuck 261.
接著,使第3搬運裝置51之保持部60c從下部吸盤261之上方退避,之後藉由驅動部283使下部吸盤261上升,換言之如第20圖所示般使接近於上部吸盤260。然後,藉由上部吸盤260之保持部60d以非接觸狀態保持被處理晶圓W之接合面WJ,並且停止藉由下部吸盤261所進行被處理晶圓W之保持,而將被處理晶圓W收授至上部吸盤260。依此,如第21圖所示般,被處理晶圓W藉由上部吸盤260,使非接合面WN朝係下方之狀態下被保持。 Then, the holding portion 60c of the third conveying device 51 is retracted from above the lower suction cup 261, and then the lower suction cup 261 is raised by the driving portion 283, in other words, as close to the upper suction cup 260 as shown in Fig. 20. Then, the bonding surface W J of the processed wafer W is held in a non-contact state by the holding portion 60d of the upper chuck 260, and the wafer W to be processed by the lower chuck 261 is stopped, and the wafer to be processed is processed. W is accepted to the upper suction cup 260. So, as shown in FIG. 21 as the first, the wafer W is processed by the upper chuck 260, W N of the non-bonding surface toward the bottom line is held in a state of.
之後,使下部吸盤261下降而隔離下部吸盤261和上部吸盤260,接著使退避之第3搬運裝置51之保持部60c繞水平軸轉動。然後,在保持部60c朝向上方之狀態下,將該保持部60c配置在上部吸盤260之下方。接著,使保持部60c上升,並且與此同時停止藉由上部吸盤260所進行之被處理晶圓W之保持。依此,於被搬入至接合面洗 淨裝置40之時,藉由保持部60c保持接合面WJ之被處理晶圓W如第22圖所示般,成為藉由保持部60c保持非接合面WN之狀態。即是,成為藉由保持部60c所保持之被處理晶圓之面之表背反轉之狀態。之後,在保持被處理晶圓W之非接合面WN之狀態下,使保持部60c從反轉裝置42退避。 Thereafter, the lower suction cup 261 is lowered to isolate the lower suction cup 261 and the upper suction cup 260, and then the holding portion 60c of the retracted third conveying device 51 is rotated about the horizontal axis. Then, the holding portion 60c is disposed below the upper suction cup 260 with the holding portion 60c facing upward. Next, the holding portion 60c is raised, and at the same time, the holding of the processed wafer W by the upper chuck 260 is stopped. As a result, when the wafer wafer W to be bonded to the bonding surface W J is held by the holding portion 60c as shown in FIG. 22, the non-joining surface is held by the holding portion 60c. The state of W N. In other words, the surface of the wafer to be processed held by the holding portion 60c is reversed. Thereafter, while maintaining the wafer W to be processed W N of the non-bonding surface of the holding portion 60c from the inverting means 42 is retracted.
並且,在檢查裝置7無確認到接著劑G之殘渣時,被處理晶圓W不被搬運至接合面洗淨裝置40,而在反轉裝置42進行被處理晶圓W之反轉,但是針對反轉之方法與上述方法相同。 When the inspection device 7 does not confirm the residue of the adhesive G, the processed wafer W is not transported to the bonding surface cleaning device 40, and the inverting device 42 reverses the processed wafer W, but The method of inversion is the same as the above method.
之後,在保持被處理晶圓W之狀態下使第3搬運裝置51之保持部60c繞水平軸轉動,而使被處理晶圓W上下方向反轉。然後,被處理晶圓W係在非接合面WN朝上方之狀態下藉由保持部60c再次被搬運至檢查裝置7,進行非接合面WN之檢查(第13圖之工程A6)。然後,在非接合面WN確認出接著劑G之殘渣時,被處理晶圓W藉由第3搬運裝置51被搬運至非接合面洗淨裝置41,進行非接合面WN之洗淨(第13圖之工程A7)。接著,被洗淨之被處理晶圓W藉由第3搬運裝置51被搬運至後處理站4。並且,在檢查裝置7無確認出接著劑G之殘渣時,被處理晶圓W不被搬運至非接合面洗淨裝置41,原樣地被搬運至後處理站4。 Thereafter, the holding portion 60c of the third conveying device 51 is rotated about the horizontal axis while the wafer W to be processed is held, and the wafer W to be processed is reversed in the vertical direction. Then, the treated wafer W by holding line portion 60c is conveyed in a state of non-engagement surface toward the top N W again to the inspection apparatus 7, for checking W N of the non-bonding surface (FIG. 13 Engineering of A6). When the residue of the adhesive G is confirmed on the non-joining surface W N , the processed wafer W is transported to the non-joining surface cleaning device 41 by the third transfer device 51 to clean the non-joining surface W N ( Project A7) of Figure 13. Then, the cleaned wafer W to be processed is transported to the post-processing station 4 by the third transport device 51. When the inspection device 7 does not confirm the residue of the adhesive G, the processed wafer W is not transported to the non-joining surface cleaning device 41, and is transported to the post-processing station 4 as it is.
之後,在後處理站4對被處理晶圓W進行規定之後處理(第13圖之工程A8)。如此一來,被處理晶圓W被製 品化。 Thereafter, the post-processing station 4 performs predetermined processing on the processed wafer W (the construction A8 in Fig. 13). In this way, the processed wafer W is made. Productization.
另外,從具有缺陷之重合晶圓T被剝離的具有缺陷之被處理晶圓W於在工程A2洗淨接合面WJ之後,藉由第1搬運裝置20被搬運至搬入搬出站2。之後,具有缺陷之被處理晶圓W從搬入搬出站2被搬出至外部而被回收(第13圖之工程A9)。 In addition, the defective processed wafer W which has been peeled off from the defective superposed wafer T is transported to the loading/unloading station 2 by the first transport device 20 after the cleaning of the joint surface W J of the project A2. After that, the defective processed wafer W is carried out from the loading/unloading station 2 to the outside and is collected (Project A9 in Fig. 13).
對被處理晶圓W進行上述工程A1~A9之間,在剝離裝置30被剝離之支撐晶圓S,藉由第1搬運裝置20被搬運至第2洗淨裝置33。然後,在第2洗淨裝置33中,洗淨支撐晶圓S之接合面SJ(第13圖之工程A10)。並且,第2洗淨裝置33中之支撐晶圓S之洗淨因與上述第1洗淨裝置31中之被處理晶圓W之洗淨相同,故省略說明。 The support wafer S in which the peeling device 30 is peeled off between the above-described processes A1 to A9 is processed by the first transfer device 20 to the second cleaning device 33. Then, in the second cleaning device 33, the bonding surface S J of the supporting wafer S is cleaned (the construction A10 of Fig. 13). Further, since the cleaning of the support wafer S in the second cleaning device 33 is the same as the cleaning of the wafer W to be processed in the first cleaning device 31, the description thereof is omitted.
之後,接合面SJ被洗淨之支撐晶圓S,藉由第1搬運裝置20被搬運至搬入搬出站2。之後,支撐晶圓S從搬入搬出站2被搬出至外部而被回收(第13圖之工程A11)。如此一來,完成一連串之被處理晶圓W和支撐晶圓S之剝離處理。 Thereafter, the supporting wafer S on which the bonding surface S J is cleaned is transported to the loading/unloading station 2 by the first conveying device 20. After that, the support wafer S is carried out from the loading/unloading station 2 to the outside and is collected (Project A11 in Fig. 13). In this way, a series of stripping processes of the processed wafer W and the supporting wafer S are completed.
若藉由以上之實施形態時,於以保持部60保持被處理晶圓W之時,從保持部60之噴出口62噴出氣體,並且從吸引口63吸引氣體。如此一來,在保持部60和被處理晶圓W之間之間隙D中,可以形成從噴出口62朝向吸引口63之氣流F。而且,因保持部60係在涵蓋保持面61全面形成複數噴出口62和複數吸引口63,故該氣流F也形成在保持面61全面。然後,藉由該複數之氣流F,可 以增大保持部60對被處理晶圓W之吸引力。即是,可以增大足夠將漂浮狀態之被處理晶圓W保持水平的剛性(漂浮剛性)。因此,即使在例如被薄型化之被處理晶圓W之外周部變形之狀態下,藉由保持部60,矯正被處理晶圓W之變形,可以適當保持被處理晶圓W。 According to the above embodiment, when the wafer W to be processed is held by the holding portion 60, gas is ejected from the discharge port 62 of the holding portion 60, and gas is sucked from the suction port 63. In this way, in the gap D between the holding portion 60 and the wafer W to be processed, the airflow F from the discharge port 62 toward the suction port 63 can be formed. Further, since the holding portion 60 integrally forms the plurality of discharge ports 62 and the plurality of suction ports 63 in the cover surface 61, the air flow F is also formed on the holding surface 61 in an all-round manner. Then, by the plural airflow F, The attraction force of the holding portion 60 to the wafer W to be processed is increased. That is, it is possible to increase the rigidity (floating rigidity) sufficient to keep the wafer W to be processed in a floating state horizontal. Therefore, even in the state where the peripheral portion of the wafer W to be processed is thinned, for example, the deformation of the wafer W to be processed is corrected by the holding portion 60, and the wafer W to be processed can be appropriately held.
再者,保持部60因可以非接觸狀態保持被處理晶圓W,故可以迴避被設置在該被處理晶圓W上之裝置受到損傷。並且,即使例如在保持部60附著微粒之時,該微粒也不會有附著於被處理晶圓W之情形。 Further, since the holding portion 60 can hold the wafer W to be processed in a non-contact state, it is possible to avoid damage to the device provided on the wafer W to be processed. Further, even when particles are adhered to the holding portion 60, for example, the particles do not adhere to the wafer W to be processed.
再者,保持部60a~60f各被設置在剝離裝置30、第1洗淨裝置31(接合面洗淨裝置40、非接合面洗淨裝置41)、第2搬運裝置32(第3搬運裝置51)、反轉裝置42、檢查裝置7。因此,在各裝置中,因藉由保持部60可以非接觸裝置適當地保持被處理晶圓W,故可以適當地進行被處理晶圓W之搬運或各種處理。 Further, each of the holding portions 60a to 60f is provided in the peeling device 30, the first cleaning device 31 (the joint surface cleaning device 40, the non-joining surface cleaning device 41), and the second conveying device 32 (the third conveying device 51) ), the inverting device 42 and the inspection device 7. Therefore, in each of the devices, the wafer W to be processed can be appropriately held by the non-contact device by the holding portion 60, so that the processing of the wafer W to be processed or various processes can be appropriately performed.
尤其,例如在剝離裝置30、第1洗淨裝置31(接合面洗淨裝置40、非接合面洗淨裝置41)、反轉裝置42、檢查裝置7中,適當地保持被薄型化之被處理晶圓W,故以往有使用多孔質之多孔性吸盤之情形。於如此使用多孔性吸盤之時,因接觸保持被處理晶圓W,故有被處理晶圓W上之裝置損傷之虞。再者,為了迴避如此之裝置之損傷,雖然多孔性吸盤也有使用軟的材料之情形,但是在如此之情形下,有多孔性吸盤被刮削而產生微粒之虞。再者,從多孔性吸盤收授被處理晶圓W之時,有產生剝離帶電, 裝置損傷之虞。並且,於使用多孔性吸盤之時,因為被處理晶圓W上之裝置之凹凸,也有在多孔性吸盤和被處理晶圓W之間產生間隙,且以特定之吸引力無法適當地保持該被處理晶圓W之情形。 In particular, for example, the peeling device 30, the first cleaning device 31 (the joint surface cleaning device 40, the non-joining surface cleaning device 41), the inverting device 42, and the inspection device 7 are appropriately kept thinned and processed. Since wafer W is used, a porous porous chuck has been used in the past. When the porous chuck is used as described above, since the wafer W to be processed is held by contact, the device on the wafer W to be processed is damaged. Further, in order to avoid the damage of such a device, although the porous chuck has a soft material, in this case, the porous chuck is scraped to generate particles. Furthermore, when the wafer W to be processed is received from the porous chuck, peeling electrification occurs. The damage of the device. Further, when the porous chuck is used, a gap is formed between the porous chuck and the wafer W to be processed due to the unevenness of the device on the wafer W to be processed, and the attraction cannot be appropriately maintained with a specific attraction force. The case of processing the wafer W.
針對此點,因本實施形態之保持部60可以非接觸狀態保持被處理晶圓W,故迴避裝置之損傷,並回避微粒之附著,回避剝離帶電,可以特定之吸引力保持被處理晶圓W。即是,若藉由本實施形態時,可以解決利用以往之多孔性吸盤保持被處理晶圓W之時的問題點。 In this regard, since the holding portion 60 of the present embodiment can hold the wafer W to be processed in a non-contact state, the damage of the avoidance device can be avoided, and the adhesion of the particles can be avoided, and the peeling electrification can be avoided, and the processed wafer W can be held with a specific attractive force. . In other words, according to the present embodiment, it is possible to solve the problem when the wafer W to be processed is held by the conventional porous chuck.
在以上之實施形態之保持部60之外周,如第23圖所示般,即使設置有覆蓋保持部60和被處理晶圓W之間之間隙D的罩蓋400亦可。罩蓋400係被設置在例如保持構件60之全周。在如此之情形下,可以抑制外部之氛圍流出至間隙D,或是氣體從間隙D流出至外部之情形。即是,來自噴出口62之氣體之噴出量和來自吸引口63之氣體之吸引量之收支成為一定。因此,可以在間隙D適當形成從噴出口62朝向吸引口63之氣流F,並可以藉由保持部60適當保持被處理晶圓W。 In the outer circumference of the holding portion 60 of the above embodiment, as shown in Fig. 23, the cover 400 covering the gap D between the holding portion 60 and the wafer W to be processed may be provided. The cover 400 is provided, for example, over the entire circumference of the holding member 60. In such a case, it is possible to suppress the external atmosphere from flowing out to the gap D or the gas flowing out from the gap D to the outside. That is, the amount of discharge of the gas from the discharge port 62 and the amount of suction of the gas from the suction port 63 are constant. Therefore, the airflow F from the discharge port 62 toward the suction port 63 can be appropriately formed in the gap D, and the wafer W to be processed can be appropriately held by the holding portion 60.
再者,在以上之實施形態之保持部60之外周,如第24圖及第25圖所示般,即使設置有被保持部60保持之被處理晶圓W之引導構件410亦可。該引導構件410係在保持部60之外周以等間隔配置於複數處例如8處。再者,引導構件410即使被構成在保持部60之徑向移動自如亦可。然後,於在保持部60和外部之間收授被處理晶 圓W之時,引導構件410係被配置在從保持部60分離之位置(第24圖中之實線)。再者,在保持部60保持被處理晶圓W之時,引導構件410被配置在引導該被處理晶圓W之位置(第24圖中之虛線)。在如此之情形下,即使例如被處理晶圓W在保持部60上滑動,亦可以藉由引導構件410防止被處理晶圓W飛出,或滑落。 Further, in the outer circumference of the holding portion 60 of the above embodiment, as shown in Figs. 24 and 25, the guiding member 410 of the wafer W to be processed held by the holding portion 60 may be provided. The guide members 410 are disposed at a plurality of places, for example, eight at equal intervals on the outer circumference of the holding portion 60. Further, the guiding member 410 may be configured to be movable in the radial direction of the holding portion 60. Then, the processed crystal is received between the holding portion 60 and the outside. At the time of the circle W, the guiding member 410 is disposed at a position separated from the holding portion 60 (solid line in Fig. 24). Further, when the holding portion 60 holds the wafer W to be processed, the guiding member 410 is disposed at a position (broken line in FIG. 24) for guiding the wafer W to be processed. In such a case, even if, for example, the processed wafer W slides on the holding portion 60, the processed wafer W can be prevented from flying out or falling off by the guiding member 410.
再者,在以上之實施形態中,複數之噴出口62和複數之吸引口63雖然交互配置成格子狀,但是如上述般,複數之噴出口62和複數之吸引口63之配置可以任意設定。例如第26圖所示般,即使在保持部60之保持面61,複數之噴出口62和複數之吸引口63被配置成放射狀亦可。即使在如此之情形下,也在涵蓋保持面61全面形成從噴出口62朝向吸引口63之氣流F。 Further, in the above embodiment, the plurality of discharge ports 62 and the plurality of suction ports 63 are alternately arranged in a lattice shape. However, as described above, the arrangement of the plurality of discharge ports 62 and the plurality of suction ports 63 can be arbitrarily set. For example, as shown in Fig. 26, even in the holding surface 61 of the holding portion 60, a plurality of discharge ports 62 and a plurality of suction ports 63 may be arranged in a radial shape. Even in such a case, the airflow F from the discharge port 62 toward the suction port 63 is formed integrally in the cover surface 61.
在以上之實施形態中,雖然在剝離裝置30使下部吸盤111在垂直方向及水平方向移動,但是即使使上部吸盤110在垂直方向及水平方向亦可。或是,即使使上部吸盤110和下部吸盤111之雙方在垂直方向及水平方向移動亦可。 In the above embodiment, the lower suction cup 111 is moved in the vertical direction and the horizontal direction in the peeling device 30, but the upper suction cup 110 may be in the vertical direction and the horizontal direction. Alternatively, both the upper suction cup 110 and the lower suction cup 111 may be moved in the vertical direction and the horizontal direction.
在以上之剝離裝置30中雖然使下部吸盤111在垂直方向及水平方向移動,但是即使使下部吸盤111僅在水平方向移動,使該下部吸盤111之移動速度變化亦可。具體而言,即使使下部吸盤111開始移動之時的移動速度變成低速,之後漸漸增加移動速度亦可。即是,於開始移動下部吸盤111之時,因被處理晶圓W和支撐晶圓S之接著 面積大,被處理晶圓W上之裝置易受接著劑G之影響,故下部吸盤111之移動速度變成低速。之後,因隨著被處理晶圓W和支撐晶圓S之接著面積變小,被處理晶圓W上之裝置難受到接著劑G之影響,故漸漸加速下部吸盤111之移動速度。即使在如此之情況下,亦可以迴避裝置和支撐晶圓S之接觸,可以抑制裝置之損傷。 In the above-described peeling device 30, the lower suction cup 111 is moved in the vertical direction and the horizontal direction. However, even if the lower suction cup 111 is moved only in the horizontal direction, the moving speed of the lower suction cup 111 may be changed. Specifically, even if the moving speed at the time when the lower suction cup 111 starts moving becomes a low speed, the moving speed may be gradually increased. That is, at the beginning of moving the lower chuck 111, the wafer W and the supporting wafer S are subsequently processed. Since the area is large, the device on the processed wafer W is susceptible to the adhesive G, so that the moving speed of the lower chuck 111 becomes a low speed. Thereafter, as the area of the wafer W to be processed and the supporting wafer S become smaller, the device on the wafer W to be processed is less affected by the adhesive G, and the moving speed of the lower chuck 111 is gradually accelerated. Even in such a case, the contact between the device and the supporting wafer S can be avoided, and the damage of the device can be suppressed.
再者,在以上之實施形態中,雖然在剝離裝置30使下部吸盤111在垂直方向及水平方向移動,但是於例如被處理晶圓W上之裝置和支撐晶圓S之間之距離充分大之時,即使使下部吸盤111僅在水平方向移動亦可。在如此之情形下,可以回避裝置和支撐晶圓S接觸,並且容易控制下部吸盤111之移動。並且,即使使下部吸盤111僅在垂直方向移動而使被處理晶圓W和支撐晶圓S剝離亦可,即使使下部吸盤111之外周部端部僅在垂直方向移動而剝離被處理晶圓W和支撐晶圓S亦可。 Further, in the above embodiment, the lower suction cup 111 is moved in the vertical direction and the horizontal direction in the peeling device 30, but the distance between the device on the wafer W to be processed and the supporting wafer S is sufficiently large. At this time, even if the lower suction cup 111 is moved only in the horizontal direction. In such a case, it is possible to avoid contact between the device and the supporting wafer S, and to easily control the movement of the lower chuck 111. Further, even if the lower chuck 111 is moved only in the vertical direction to peel off the wafer W to be processed and the support wafer S, even if the peripheral end portion of the lower chuck 111 is moved only in the vertical direction, the wafer W to be processed is peeled off. And supporting the wafer S is also possible.
在以上之實施形態之剝離裝置30中,即使設置有上部吸盤110和下部吸盤111之間之處理空間的蓋部(無圖示)亦可。在如此之情形下,即使藉由使處理空間成為惰性氣體之氛圍,被處理晶圓W被加熱處理,亦可以抑制該被處理晶圓W上之裝置之氧化。 In the peeling device 30 of the above embodiment, a cover portion (not shown) of the processing space between the upper chuck 110 and the lower chuck 111 may be provided. In such a case, even if the processed wafer W is heated by the atmosphere in which the processing space is an inert gas, the oxidation of the device on the processed wafer W can be suppressed.
再者,在以上之實施形態之剝離裝置30中,可以追隨著下部吸盤111而在水平方向移動,即使設置從複數之孔供給惰性氣體之多孔性平板(無圖示)亦可。在如此之情形下,為了剝離重合晶圓T,使下部吸盤111移動之時, 一面追隨著下部吸盤111而使多孔性平板移動,一面對藉由剝離而露出之被處理晶圓W之接合面WJ供給惰性氣體。如此一來,即使被處理晶圓W被加熱處理,亦可以抑制被處理晶圓W之接合面WJ之氧化。 Further, in the peeling device 30 of the above embodiment, the lower suction cup 111 can be moved in the horizontal direction, and a porous flat plate (not shown) for supplying an inert gas from a plurality of holes can be provided. In such a case, in order to peel off the superposed wafer T and move the lower chuck 111, the porous flat plate is moved following the lower chuck 111, and the bonded wafer W is exposed by peeling. The surface W J supplies an inert gas. In this way, even if the wafer W to be processed is subjected to heat treatment, oxidation of the joint surface W J of the wafer W to be processed can be suppressed.
並且,在以上之實施形態之剝離裝置30中,雖然在將被處理晶圓W配置在上側,並且將支撐晶圓S配置在下側之狀態下,剝離該些被處理晶圓W和支撐晶圓S,但是即使使被處理晶圓W和支撐晶圓S之上下配置成為相反亦可。 Further, in the peeling device 30 of the above-described embodiment, the processed wafer W and the supporting wafer are peeled off while the wafer W to be processed is disposed on the upper side and the supporting wafer S is disposed on the lower side. S, but the arrangement of the wafer to be processed W and the supporting wafer S may be reversed.
在上述之實施形態中,雖然第1洗淨裝置31和第2洗淨裝置33之洗淨液噴嘴203使用2流體噴嘴,但是洗淨液噴嘴203之型態並不限定於本實施形態,亦可以使用各種噴嘴。例如,作為洗淨液噴嘴203,即使使用將供給洗淨液之噴嘴和供給惰性氣體之噴予以一體化之噴嘴體,或噴霧噴嘴、噴射噴嘴、超音波噴嘴等亦可。再者,因提升洗淨處理之處理量,故即使供給被加熱至例如80℃之洗淨液亦可。 In the above-described embodiment, the second fluid nozzle is used as the cleaning liquid nozzle 203 of the first cleaning device 31 and the second cleaning device 33. However, the shape of the cleaning liquid nozzle 203 is not limited to this embodiment. Various nozzles can be used. For example, as the cleaning liquid nozzle 203, a nozzle body that integrates a nozzle that supplies the cleaning liquid and a spray that supplies an inert gas, a spray nozzle, an injection nozzle, an ultrasonic nozzle, or the like may be used. Further, since the amount of the treatment for the washing treatment is increased, the supply of the washing liquid heated to, for example, 80 ° C can be supplied.
再者,在第1洗淨裝置31和第2洗淨裝置33中,除了洗淨液噴嘴203之外,即使設置供給IPA(異丙醇)之噴嘴亦可。在如此之情況下,於藉由來自洗淨液噴嘴203之洗淨液洗淨被處理晶圓W或支撐晶圓S之後,將被處理晶圓W或支撐晶圓S上之洗淨液置換成IPA。如此一來,被處理晶圓W或支撐晶圓S之接合面WJ、SJ更確實被洗淨。 In addition, in the first cleaning device 31 and the second cleaning device 33, a nozzle for supplying IPA (isopropyl alcohol) may be provided in addition to the cleaning liquid nozzle 203. In this case, after the processed wafer W or the supporting wafer S is washed by the cleaning liquid from the cleaning liquid nozzle 203, the cleaning liquid on the processed wafer W or the supporting wafer S is replaced. Into IPA. As a result, the bonding surfaces W J and S J of the processed wafer W or the supporting wafer S are more reliably washed.
並且,檢查裝置7之構成並不限定於上述實施形態之構成。檢查裝置7若攝像被處理晶圓W之畫像,而可以檢查該被處理晶圓W上有無接著劑G時,則可以採用各種構成。 Further, the configuration of the inspection device 7 is not limited to the configuration of the above embodiment. When the inspection device 7 captures an image of the wafer W to be processed and can check whether or not the adhesive G is present on the wafer W to be processed, various configurations can be employed.
再者,在上述之實施形態中,雖然針對在後處理站4對被處理晶圓W進行後處理且予以製品化之時進行說明,但是本發明亦可以適用於例如從支撐晶圓剝離在三次元積體技術中被使用的被處理晶圓之時。並且,三次元積體技術係因應近年來之半導體裝置之高積體化之要求的技術,三次元積層該複數半導體裝置,以取代在水平面內配置高積體化之複數之半導體裝置的技術。即使在該三次元積體技術中,也要求被積層之被處理晶圓之薄型化,將該被處理晶圓接合於支撐晶圓而進行特定之處理。 Furthermore, in the above-described embodiment, the post-processing station 4 performs post-processing on the processed wafer W and supplies it to the product. However, the present invention is also applicable to, for example, peeling off from the supporting wafer three times. The time when the wafer to be processed is used in the meta-integration technology. Further, the ternary integrated technology is a technique in which the complex semiconductor device is stacked three-dimensionally in place of a high-integration semiconductor device in a horizontal plane in response to a technique required for the high integration of semiconductor devices in recent years. Even in the three-dimensional integrated technology, it is required to reduce the thickness of the processed wafer to be laminated, and to bond the processed wafer to the supporting wafer to perform a specific process.
以上,雖然一面參照附件圖面一面針對本發明之最佳實施形態予以說明,但是本發明並不限並於如此之例。若為本項技藝者在記載於申請專利範圍之思想範疇內應該能夠思及各種變更例或是修正例,即使針對該些變更例或修正例當然也屬於本發明之技術範圍。本發明並不限定於此例,可採用各種態樣。本發明亦可以適用於基板為晶圓以外之FPD(平面顯示器)、光罩用之光柵等之其他基板之時。 Although the preferred embodiment of the present invention has been described above with reference to the attached drawings, the present invention is not limited to such an example.
