Description
本發明,是有關於晶圓等的板狀被加工物的磨削方法。 The present invention relates to a method of grinding a plate-shaped workpiece such as a wafer.
在表面形成複數IC、LSI等的元件的矽晶圓(以下只稱為晶圓),是背面被磨削並被薄化至規定的厚度之後,藉由切削裝置被分割成各元件晶片,被分割的元件晶片是被廣泛利用在行動電話、個人電腦等的各種電子機器。 A silicon wafer (hereinafter referred to simply as a wafer) in which a plurality of devices such as ICs and LSIs are formed on the surface is ground on the back side and thinned to a predetermined thickness, and then is divided into each device wafer by a cutting device. The divided device chip is widely used in various electronic devices such as mobile phones and personal computers.
在將晶圓的背面磨削中,將由磨削裝置的挾盤載置台保持的晶圓旋轉,並且一邊將磨削砥石旋轉一邊與晶圓的被磨削面(背面)接觸,將晶圓的厚度一邊測量一邊磨削。 In grinding the back surface of the wafer, the wafer held by the chucking table of the grinding device is rotated, and while the grinding whetstone is rotated, the wafer is brought into contact with the ground surface (back surface) of the wafer to remove the wafer The thickness is measured while grinding.
此時的厚度的測量方法,一般是一邊將接觸端子與旋轉的晶圓的被磨削面及挾盤載置台的框體的上面(基準面)接觸一邊測量厚度,由到達規定的厚度的時點終了加工的方法(例如日本特開昭63-256360號公報、日本特開2000-006018號公報、日本特開2001-009716號公報 參照)。 The method of measuring the thickness at this time is generally to measure the thickness while contacting the contact terminal with the ground surface of the rotating wafer and the upper surface (reference surface) of the frame of the chuck mounting table, when the predetermined thickness is reached Final processing method (for example, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 63-256360, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2000-006018, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2001-009716 Reference).

但是在一邊將接觸端子接觸一邊將厚度測量的測量方法中,因為將厚度測量器的接觸端子一邊與晶圓的被磨削面接觸一邊將厚度測量,所以在晶圓的被磨削面具有接觸端子接觸的刮傷殘留的問題。 However, in the measurement method of measuring the thickness while contacting the contact terminals, the thickness is measured while the contact terminals of the thickness gauge are in contact with the ground surface of the wafer, so there is contact on the ground surface of the wafer The problem of scratches on terminal contact.
且在接觸測量方法中,因為一邊將包含被貼合在晶圓的厚度及晶圓的表面側的保護構件的總厚由厚度測量器測量,一邊實施磨削加工,所以在保護構件的厚度具有參差不一的情況,該參差不一也會顯現在所測量的厚度,具有無法高精度測量厚度的問題。 In the contact measurement method, the thickness of the protective member is measured while measuring the total thickness of the protective member attached to the wafer and the surface of the wafer by the thickness measuring device. In the case of unevenness, the unevenness will also appear in the measured thickness, with the problem that the thickness cannot be measured with high accuracy.
在此,使用雷射光束一邊測量磨削中的晶圓的厚度一邊將晶圓薄化至規定的厚度的磨削方法也被提案一些。在此方法中,雖由晶圓的上面反射的反射波及由晶圓的下面反射的反射波的到達時間差測量晶圓的厚度,但是依據被加工物的種類具有特定波長的雷射光束無法透過 晶圓的問題,依據被加工物的種類具有無法適用使用雷射光束的厚度測量方法的情況。 Here, a grinding method for thinning a wafer to a predetermined thickness using a laser beam while measuring the thickness of the wafer during grinding has also been proposed. In this method, although the arrival time difference of the reflected wave reflected by the upper surface of the wafer and the reflected wave reflected by the lower surface of the wafer measures the thickness of the wafer, laser beams with specific wavelengths cannot pass through depending on the type of object to be processed The wafer problem may not be applicable to the thickness measurement method using a laser beam depending on the type of workpiece.
本發明是有鑑於此點,其目的是在被加工物的被磨削面不殘留厚度測量器的接觸端子的刮傷,無關被加工物的種類且即使在被加工物的表面側被貼合保護構件,也可提供將被加工物的厚度一邊測量一邊磨削的被加工物的磨削方法。 The present invention is based on this point, and its purpose is not to leave scratches on the contact surface of the thickness gauge on the ground surface of the workpiece, regardless of the type of the workpiece and to be bonded even on the surface side of the workpiece The protective member may also provide a grinding method of the workpiece to be ground while measuring the thickness of the workpiece.
依據本發明的話,可提供一種被加工物的磨削方法,是使用具備將被貼合在表面保護構件的被加工物透過該保護構件保持的挾盤載置台、及將被保持於該挾盤載置台的被加工物的背面磨削的磨削手段、及將被加工物的厚度測量的超音波測量手段之磨削裝置將被加工物的背面磨削將被加工物薄化至規定的厚度,其特徵為:該超音波測量手段,是包含:與該挾盤載置台的上面相面對配置,將該挾盤載置台的上面高度位置測量的第1超音波測量器、及與被保持在挾盤載置台的被加工物的上面相面對配置,從至將被振盪的超音波由被加工物的上面反射的反射波收訊為止的傳播時間、及至將由被加工物的下面反射的反射波收訊為止的傳播時間的差,將被加工物的實厚測量的第2超音波測量器,該被加工物的磨削方法,是具備:藉由一邊只由該第2超音波測量器測量被加工物的實厚,一邊至規定的厚度為止將被加工物的背面磨削的第1 磨削過程;及在該第1磨削過程終了時,依據從藉由該第1超音波測量器測量的挾盤載置台的上面高度位置及藉由該第2超音波測量器測量的被加工物的上面高度位置的差所求得的總厚、和藉由該第2超音波測量器測量的被加工物的實厚的差,算出保護構件的厚度的保護構件厚度算出過程;及該保護構件厚度算出過程實施後,從由該第2超音波測量器測量的被加工物的上面高度位置及由該第1超音波測量器測量的挾盤載置台的上面高度位置的差、和該保護構件的厚度,將磨削中的被加工物的厚度算出,將被加工物磨削至目標精加工厚度為止的第2磨削過程。 According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a method for grinding a workpiece by using a chucking table that holds a workpiece to be attached to a surface protection member through the protective member, and a chucking table to be held on the chucking table Grinding means for grinding the backside of the workpiece on the mounting table, and ultrasonic measuring means for measuring the thickness of the workpiece, grinding the backside of the workpiece and thinning the workpiece to a predetermined thickness It is characterized in that the ultrasonic measuring means includes: a first ultrasonic measuring device which is arranged to face the upper surface of the clamping plate mounting table and measures the height position of the upper surface of the clamping plate mounting table; and Arranged on the upper surface of the workpiece on the table, face to face, the propagation time from the reception of the oscillated supersonic wave reflected by the upper surface of the workpiece, and the reflection time from the lower surface of the workpiece The difference in the propagation time until the reception of the reflected wave, the second ultrasonic measuring device that measures the solid thickness of the processed object, and the grinding method of the processed object includes: by measuring only the second ultrasonic wave on one side Measuring the solid thickness of the workpiece, while grinding the back of the workpiece to the specified thickness Grinding process; and at the end of the first grinding process, according to the height position from the upper surface of the chucking table measured by the first ultrasonic measuring device and the processed object measured by the second ultrasonic measuring device The process of calculating the thickness of the protective member, which is the difference between the total thickness obtained by the difference in the upper height position of the object and the actual thickness of the workpiece measured by the second ultrasonic measuring device to calculate the thickness of the protective member; and the protection After the component thickness calculation process is implemented, the difference between the upper height position of the workpiece measured by the second ultrasonic measuring device and the upper height position of the clamping table measured by the first ultrasonic measuring device, and the protection The thickness of the member is a second grinding process in which the thickness of the workpiece during grinding is calculated, and the workpiece is ground to the target finishing thickness.
較佳是,在第1超音波測量器及挾盤載置台之間和第2超音波測量器及被加工物的被磨削面之間,是一邊充滿水一邊實施第1及第2磨削過程。 Preferably, the first and second grindings are carried out while being filled with water between the first ultrasonic measuring device and the clamping table and between the second ultrasonic measuring device and the ground surface of the workpiece process.
在本發明的磨削方法中,將被加工物的厚度測量的手段,因為是一邊使用超音波測量器測量被加工物的被磨削面的上面高度位置,一邊將被加工物磨削至目標精加工厚度為止,所以在被加工物的被磨削面不會殘留刮傷。 In the grinding method of the present invention, the method of measuring the thickness of the workpiece is to grind the workpiece to the target while measuring the height position of the upper surface of the workpiece by using an ultrasonic measuring instrument Until the thickness is finished, no scratches remain on the ground surface of the workpiece.
且至規定的厚度為止,是將被加工物的實厚一邊測量一邊磨削,被加工物的目標精加工厚度為止,因為是一邊測量挾盤載置台的上面高度位置及被加工物的被磨削面的上面高度位置一邊磨削加工,所以可以使用比較 便宜的超音波測量器將被加工物磨削至目標精加工厚度為止。 And up to the specified thickness, the actual thickness of the workpiece is ground while measuring, and the target finish thickness of the workpiece is measured, because it is measuring the height position of the upper surface of the platen mounting table and the ground of the workpiece The upper surface of the cut surface is grinded at the same time, so you can use the comparison An inexpensive ultrasonic measuring machine grinds the workpiece to the target finishing thickness.
進一步,即使在被加工物的表面被貼合保護構件,因為在測量被加工物的實厚的磨削中保護構件是藉由磨削壓力被按壓,所以保護構件的厚度參差不一被消解,可以將被加工物精度佳地磨削至目標精加工厚度為止。 Furthermore, even if the protective member is bonded to the surface of the workpiece, because the protective member is pressed by the grinding pressure during the measurement of the solid thickness of the workpiece, the uneven thickness of the protective member is eliminated, It is possible to grind the workpiece accurately to the target finishing thickness.

下面的反射波的波形68是由與超音波測量手段48連接的波形檢出部58被檢出。
The arrival time of the reflected wave of the
從由波形檢出部58被檢出的第2超音波測量器54的將由晶圓11的上面(背面)11b反射的反射波收訊為止的傳播時間、及將由晶圓11的下面(表面)11a反射的反射波收訊為止的傳播時間的差,由厚度算出部60一邊將晶圓11的厚度(實厚)算出一邊將第1磨削過程完成。
The propagation time from the second
在第1磨削過程中,雖也收訊第1超音波測量器50的挾盤載置台38的上面38a的反射波,但是此反射波是在晶圓11的實厚的測量中不會被利用。
In the first grinding process, although the reflected wave of the
在第6圖的波形圖中,箭頭70是顯示將晶圓11的上面的反射波收訊為止的時間及將晶圓11的下面的反射波收訊為止的時間差,將時間差設成t,將晶圓11中的音速設成v的話,在厚度算出部60中,晶圓11的厚度可以由vt/2算出。
In the waveform diagram of FIG. 6,
實施此第1磨削過程的話,因為保護帶23是藉由磨削壓力從上方被按壓,所以保護帶23的厚度的參差不一被消解,保護帶23是成為一樣的厚度。
When this first grinding process is performed, since the
因此,在第1磨削過程的終了時,依據從藉由第1超音波測量器50測量的挾盤載置台38的上面38a的高度位置、及藉由第2超音波測量器54測量的晶圓11的上面11b的高度位置的差所求得的晶圓11+保護帶23的總厚、和藉由第2超音波測量器54測量的晶圓11的實厚的差,將保護帶23的厚度測量。
Therefore, at the end of the first grinding process, the height position from the
由厚度算出部60算出的晶圓11的厚度是成為規定的厚度,在本實施例中成為200μm的話,從厚度算出部60朝控制手段62將訊號送出,控制手段62是將磨削單元給進機構34的脈衝馬達32的旋轉停止,終了第1磨削過程。
The thickness of the
保護帶23的厚度算出過程實施後,實施將晶圓11磨削至目標精加工厚度為止的第2磨削過程。在此第2磨削過程中,如第7圖所示,從由第1超音波測量器50測量的挾盤載置台38的上面38a的高度位置、及由第2超音波測量器54測量的晶圓11的上面(背面)11b的高度位置的差、和保護帶23的厚度,由厚度算出部60將晶圓11的厚度算出,將晶圓11磨削至目標精加工厚度,例如50μm為止。
After the thickness calculation process of the
參照第8圖的話,顯示第2磨削過程中的第1超音波測量器50及第2超音波測量器54的波形圖。66是顯示從第2超音波測量器54被振盪的超音波的晶圓11的上面(背面)11b中的反射波,顯示隨著晶圓11的磨削的進行,將反射波收訊為止的傳播時間漸漸遲延。
Referring to FIG. 8, waveform diagrams of the first
在本實施例中在被安裝於第1超音波測量器50的先端的圓筒52及被安裝於第2超音波測量器54的先端的圓筒56中一邊將純水充滿一邊測量實施,因為晶圓11的磨削是一邊供給磨削水一邊實施,所以磨削屑會混入磨削水中,因此將混入了此磨削屑的磨削水一邊由供給至圓筒構件52、56中的純水排除一邊實施厚度的測
量。
In this embodiment, the
在上述的實施例中,因為利用將20MHz的超音波振盪的比較便宜的超音波振盪器,一邊將晶圓11的厚度由非接觸測量一邊將晶圓11藉由第1磨削過程及第2磨削過程磨削至目標精加工厚度為止,所以在被加工物的磨削面不會刮傷,無關進一步被加工物的種類可以一邊測量被加工物的實厚一邊實施第1磨削過程。
In the above-mentioned embodiment, since a relatively inexpensive ultrasonic oscillator that oscillates a 20 MHz ultrasonic wave is used, the thickness of the
在上述的實施例中,雖說明了在表面被貼合保護構件的被加工物的磨削方法,但是本發明的磨削方法不限定於此,對於在表面未被貼合保護構件的被加工物也同樣地可以適用。 In the above-mentioned embodiment, although the grinding method of the workpiece to which the protective member is bonded to the surface is described, the grinding method of the present invention is not limited to this, and the processing to which the protective member is not bonded to the surface is processed The same applies to objects.
