Prior Technology 1. In the semiconductor or flat display related industries, a substrate used to make a semiconductor element or display typically undergoes processes such as lithography, etching, photoresist removal, surface treatment, cleaning, and deposition. Each Thai process is performed in a separate process machine. Generally speaking, each process machine such as the etching machine m, the photoresist removal machine 112, the cleaning machine ιΐ3, and the film forming machine currently exist in an independent form, and will occupy a large space from dust-free. , As shown in Figure 1. This configuration, for industrial plants with limited space, has poor space utilization efficiency and indirectly leads to higher product production costs. On the other hand, in the traditional machine configuration, each machine is an independent machine, and the substrate transportation between each machine is currently carried by first transferring the substrate to an AGV (automatic guided vehicle), and then borrowing it. Moving by AGV to another machine, or temporarily placing the substrate in a storage cabinet 131. AGV needs a special aisle 121 space during transportation, so this configuration and process will further occupy more space. The current machine configuration usually takes into consideration the way that related process machines are placed next to each other to reduce mutual pollution. For example, the machines of related seat processes or related dry processes are configured together, as shown in the figure. As shown in FIG. 1, the relevant photoresist removal machine 112 is often arranged adjacent to the machine 5 1222157 113. However, this configuration method usually does not take into account the smoothness of the process flow. Therefore, in the manufacturing process, the substrate needs to be moved back and repeatedly to be transported between remote machines, which wastes a lot of manufacturing time during the transportation process, resulting in production. Reduced efficiency and increased costs. In addition, in the case of general machine operation or maintenance, there will be people walking on the AGV transport aisle, so the risk of being hit by the AGV will increase. At the same time, because people move near the process machine, they will also Increase the probability of particles falling on the substrate and reduce the yield of the product. In addition, in the photoresist removal process, the removal machine can only provide a single photoresist removal function, and there is no way to replace the machine in the process of cleaning the machine. However, under the trend of reducing global production costs and lowering gross profit margins, how to use the least resources to make the most effective use has become the goal of various semiconductor manufacturers. Therefore, how to design an optimal space and machine utilization efficiency The machine configuration and integrated machine are the goals that need to be improved urgently. 3. Summary of the Invention The main purpose of the present invention is to provide a machine configuration method for a clean room, which can reduce the volume occupied by the machine configuration, rationalize the machine configuration, reduce the transport time to increase the substrate transport speed, and increase the smooth process flow. And improve space utilization. Another object of the present invention is to provide a clean room machine configuration method, which can reduce particles falling on the product due to people walking around. 1222157 = will 'improve production yield and reduce personnel collision wind. Low production costs. . The purpose of this month is to provide an integrated cleaning and removal machine with cleaning, removal, and money-cutting functions, which can bypass unnecessary processes if necessary, and increase Use flexibility, reduce the space occupied by the same function machine group, reduce the cost of the machine to complete the same process, and improve machine efficiency. Another objective of this Maoming is to provide an integrated etching and surface cleaning machine, which can make the substrate bypass the etching process chamber and go directly to the next process when the etching process is not needed. In order to achieve the above-mentioned main objective, the process machine configuration of the clean room of the present invention is matched with at least one substrate, including a plurality of exposure machines, which are used to perform the exposure process on the substrate; and a plurality of deposition machines, which are used to the The substrate is subjected to a deposition process; a plurality of etching, removing, and cleaning integration machines, each of which is located between the exposure machine and the deposition machine, is used to perform etching, removal, and removal of the substrate. Cleaning process; and an aerial substrate transport device (OHS), which spans the top of the exposure machine, the deposition machine, and the etching removal cleaning integration machine, to transport the substrate to the exposure machine, the deposition machine And the etching and cleaning integration machine; among the exposure machine, the etching and cleaning integration machine, and the deposition machine, the substrate is transported by the OHS to make the substrate First go through the exposure machine to perform the exposure process, then go through the etching removal cleaning integration machine to perform the etching, removal, surface treatment and cleaning processes, and finally enter the deposition machine To perform the deposition process. 7 In order to achieve another object of the present invention, the integrated etching removal cleaning machine of the present invention is equipped with at least one substrate, including: an etching process chamber; a removal process chamber; a cleaning process chamber; and a substrate winding The transporting device; wherein the etching process room, the removal process room, and the cleaning process room are sequentially connected, and the substrate is transported by the substrate around the transport device to enter a cleaning process room for cleaning. Or selectively enter the #lithography process room, the removal process room, and the cleaning process room. In short, 'the present invention mainly provides a machine configuration method in a clean room.' On the one hand, the use of AGV can be eliminated, thereby reducing the space of the AGV aisle. 'On the other hand, the storage cabinet prevents workers from directly accessing the machine. Chance of causing particles to fall. At the same time, the processing machines of the same procedure are arranged in a row, and the substrates to be processed are transported by the robot arm of the storage cabinet or OHS, increasing the production efficiency. In addition, the present invention also provides an integrated machine, which integrates the process steps of etching, photoresist removal, surface treatment, and cleaning from the original independent machines to the same machine to save space. A bypass transportation device is provided so that when the substrate does not need to be subjected to an etching process, the substrate can be transported to the next process by the bypass transportation device. The substrate bypass transport device is not limited, and it can be any transport device that can selectively enter or bypass the off-cut process room, the removal process room, or the cleaning process room. A first substrate transporting device and a second substrate transporting device. The second substrate transporting device is installed above the etching process chamber, and is connected to the first substrate transporting device by a lifting mechanism, so that the substrate can be selectively passed through the second substrate transporting device without entering. The etching process chamber is transported to the removal process chamber. More preferably, the first substrate transportation device is a roller transportation device 1: The second substrate transportation device is a roller transportation device. According to the present invention, the combined I-type cleaning and cleaning machine can optionally be added to include a transport device, an etching chamber, a DIW rinse, a dry air knife, a buffer solution chamber, a photoresist removal chamber, a chemical rinse, Drying unit, organic removal, cleaning, drying unit, etc. to increase its function and improve the use flexibility. Fourth, the embodiment needs to be noted that the substrate transport device of the integrated machine of the present invention is not limited, and T is a conventional conveyor transport device, miscellaneous transport device, etc. 'preferably a roller transport device; the invention is applicable to The substrate is not limited, and may be a silicon substrate in a general semiconductor or a glass substrate in an LCD display device industry, and preferably a glass substrate. In order to make your reviewing committee better understand the technical content of the present invention, the second preferred embodiment is described below. First Embodiment Referring to FIG. 2 at first, this is a schematic diagram of a machine configuration according to the first embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, machines of the same type are mainly placed in the same row ', and the substrates are processed by the robot arm of the storage cabinet or the OHS. It can be seen in the figure that there are mainly four types of machines, namely the photolithography machine 211, the relief and photoresist removal machine 212, and the thin film deposition machine 213, which are separated from each other by a storage cabinet. And AGV is not used at all, so 1222157 does not need AGV aisle, which greatly increases the utilization efficiency of space allocation. The substrate transfer between each machine is performed by the robot arm of the storage cabinet 221, or by OHS 222, which further reduces the chance of particles falling on the substrate due to personnel approaching or AGV movement, while reducing The opportunity for personnel to collide with the AGV has also improved the yield of the product. In addition, this configuration method uses 0HS as a carrier, which can greatly avoid the chance of particle contamination in the air exposed to the board when the substrate is moved into and out of the machine when using AGV as a carrier. What's more, in the configuration of this embodiment, after the film is formed, the substrate can be transported to the photolithography machine 211 at 0HS, and can be transported to the adjacent time or photoresist removal machine 212. Because the etching and photoresist removal machine 212 is adjacent to the photolithography machine 211 in the configuration, the circuitous waste of transportation can be avoided, and the smoothness and rationality of the production process can be improved. Second Embodiment Please refer to FIG. 3, which is a schematic diagram of a machine configuration according to a second embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, process machines of the same layer, such as film deposition 311, lithography 312, and etching removal 313, are placed on the moving line of the same storage cabinet 321. The advantage is that the connected storage cabinets The AGV is prevented from being exposed to the air during loading and unloading, causing particles to fall on the substrate. On the other hand, this embodiment can also remove the space occupied by the AGV aisle, reduce the equipment space cost, and at the same time prevent personnel from being hit by the AGV. At the same time, by cutting through the storage cabinet or transporting the 输送 322, personnel do not need to walk to the front of the machine ^ work 'also reduces the particles brought about by people's movement. In addition, by placing the same-level process machines on the same process line, the product handling time can be reduced by 10 1222157. Furthermore, in the configuration of this embodiment, after the film is formed, the substrate can be transported to the photolithography machine 2u by OHS and to the adjacent etching or photoresist removal machine 212. Because the etching and photoresist removal machine 212 is adjacent to the photolithography machine 211 in the configuration, the circuitous waste of transportation can be avoided, and the smoothness and rationality of the production process can be improved. Embodiment 3 Please refer to FIG. 4, which is a schematic diagram of an integrated machine according to Embodiment 3 of the present invention. As mentioned above, in order to improve the productivity of each machine, the integrated machine 412 proposed in this embodiment can integrate processes such as etching, photoresist removal, surface treatment, and cleaning in the same machine, improving on the one hand The productivity of this machine, on the other hand, reduces the excess machine space and reduces equipment costs. The integrated machine 412 is preceded by a light lithography machine 411, followed by a thin film deposition machine 413. At the same time, each machine is connected to a storage cabinet 421, and the processed glass substrate is sent by a robotic arm 422. Enter the storage port 423 in the storage cabinet 421. Embodiment 4 Please refer to FIG. 5 ′ This is a schematic diagram of Embodiment 4 of the present invention. In this embodiment, the integrated machine of the present invention is mainly shown. In addition to being able to integrate the various processes, it is also possible to design a bypass mechanism to select a specific process because it is not necessary every time. Feed the substrate into a specific process chamber or bypass the process which is omitted. In this embodiment, an orbiting roller device 52 is designed for the etching process. In the normal process, an etching process is used, so the glass 11 substrate is transported through each process by a roller transport device 51. However, in some specific cases, the etching process is not necessary. If the glass substrate is still sent into the etching process at this time, it is not a waste of time and cost. In addition, a detour roller device 52 is provided, so that the glass substrate 53 can skip the etching process and go directly to the next process through the detour roller device 52.
