具体实施方式
以下结合附图对本公开的具体实施方式进行详细说明。应当理解的 是,此处所描述的具体实施方式仅用于说明和解释本公开,并不用于限制本公开。
图1为本公开的一些实施例中提供的电极结构的第一表面示意图,图2为本公开的一些实施例中提供的电极结构的第二表面示意图,第一表面和第二表面为电极结构相对的两面,该电极结构10用于电化学沉积设备中,如图1和图2所示,该电极结构包括:支撑架11、设置在支撑架11上的金属网12和多个导电条13。其中,导电条13与金属网12电连接,导电条13包括:导电主体和包覆导电主体的保护层,导电主体的导电率大于保护层的导电率。保护层用于防止导电主体与电镀液中的金属离子发生反应,保护层的活泼性小于导电主体的活泼性。例如,导电条13为钛包铜结构,其中导电主体的主要成分为铜,保护层的主要成分为钛金属。
其中,在进行电化学沉积工艺时,待电镀的基板装载在基板载具上,该基板载具作为阴极,连接电源的负向输出端;电极结构10作为阳极,连接电源的正向输出端,从而在阳极与待电镀的基板之间形成电场,进而使电镀液中的金属离子(如,Cu离子或Ni离子或Ag离子等)附着在基板上,形成电镀膜。
在对大尺寸的基板进行电化学沉积时,电极结构10的尺寸也就需要相应地增大,这样就容易导致电极结构10的边缘和中部的电压存在差异,导致基板边缘和中心的电场存在差异,进而导致基板上形成的膜厚均匀性较差。
而在本公开实施例中,支撑架11上设置有多个导电条13,导电条13包括导电主体和保护层,导电主体采用导电率更好的金属材料制成,从而可以减小电极结构整体的电阻率,使金属网12不同位置的电压均匀性提高,进而使待电镀的基板所在区域中的电场均匀性提高,提高成膜的均一性。
在一些实施例中,如图2所示,多个导电条13中的至少一者沿金属网12的长度方向(如图2中的左右方向)延伸,其余的导电条13中 的至少一者沿金属网12的宽度方向(如图2中的上下方向)延伸。
在一些实施例中,支撑架11的材料与金属网12的材料相同,例如,二者均采用钛制成。
可选地,支撑架11包括支撑架主体11a和加电部11b,金属网12固定在支撑架主体11a上,加电部11b用于与电源装置连接,加载电信号。
在一些实施例中,加电部11b远离支撑架主体11a的一端的宽度小于加电部11b靠近支撑架主体11a的一端的宽度,例如,加电部11b靠近支撑架主体11a的一端的宽度为加电部11b远离支撑架主体11a的一端的宽度的1~1.4倍。
在一些实施例中,如图2所示,金属网12为一体结构并呈矩形,其中一个导电条13沿电极结构的长度方向延伸,其余导电条13沿电极结构的宽度方向延伸,并从阳极结构10的一侧延伸至另一侧。
在一具体示例中,金属网12的长度为宽度的1~1.5倍。
在一些实施例中,如图2所示,支撑架主体11a包括横向支撑条111a和纵向支撑条111b,横向支撑条111a沿第一方向(即,电极结构的长度方向,也即图2中的左右方向)延伸,纵向支撑条111b沿第二方向(即,电极结构的宽度方向,也即图2中的上下方向)延伸。可选地,每相邻两个纵向支撑条111b均设置有一个与纵向支撑条111b平行的导电条13。
在一些实施例中,相邻两个横向支撑条111a之间的距离与相邻两个纵向支撑条111b之间的距离大致相等。相邻两个纵向支撑条111b与二者之间的导电条13的距离大致相等,从而使电极结构不同位置所对应的电场更加均匀。
图3为本公开的另一些实施例中提供的电极结构的示意图,如图3所示,阳极结构10被划分为多个分区(A1、A2),支撑架主体包括位于每个分区中的支撑部111,每个分区中均设置有多个导电条13,金属网12位于不同分区的部分相互绝缘。为了保证金属网12位于不同分区 的部分是绝缘间隔的,当支撑架11采用导电材料制成时,可以将支撑架11位于不同分区的部分也间隔开,并利用绝缘连接件将阳极结构位于不同分区的部分固定连接在一起。
当电极结构10划分为多个分区时,可以对不同分区的电压分别进行控制,从而提高不同分区对应的电场均一性,从而提高基板上的成膜均一性。
例如,在进行电沉积时,电极结构10容易产生边缘放电,从而导致边缘的电场强度大于中部区域的电场强度,进而导致基板上所形成的膜层边缘较厚,中心较薄。为了防止这一现象,本公开实施例中的电极结构的多个分区可以包括:中部分区A1和环绕该中部分区A1的至少一个边缘分区A2,通过对中部分区A1和每个边缘分区A2的电压进行分别控制,来提高成膜的均一性。
在一些实施例中,例如图3所示,中部分区A1沿第一方向的尺寸L11为边缘分区A2沿第一方向L12的尺寸的1~3倍,中部分区A1沿第二方向的尺寸L21为边缘分区A2沿第二方向L22的尺寸的1~3倍,第一方向为电极结构的长度方向,第二方向为电极结构的宽度方向。换言之,中部分区沿第一方向的尺寸为电极结构沿第一方向的尺寸的1/3至3/5,中部分区沿第二方向的尺寸为电极结构沿第二方向的尺寸的1/3至3/5。
作为本公开的另一方面,提供一种电化学沉积设备,图4为本公开的一些实施例中提供的电化学沉积设备整体结构的立体图,图5为本公开的一些实施例中提供的电化学沉积设备的部分结构的立体图,图6为本公开的一些实施例中提供的电化学沉积设备的部分结构的侧视图,图7为本公开的一些实施例中提供的电化学沉积设备的部分结构的俯视图,图8为本公开的一些实施例中提供的电化学沉积设备的部分结构的仰视图。结合图4至图8所示,该电化学沉积设备包括:具有容纳槽20v的槽体20、基板载具30和上述实施例中的电极结构10。其中,容纳槽20v用于容纳电镀液,电极结构设置在容纳槽20v中,基板载具 30用于装载待电镀的基板。由于上述电极结构中,不同位置的电压均一性提高,因此,采用上述电极结构的电化学沉积设备进行电化学沉积时,基板所在区域中的电场均一性提高,因此,本公开实施例中的电化学沉积设备在对大尺寸(例如1850mm*1500mm)基板进行电化学沉积时,可以保证成膜的厚度均一性。
对基板进行的电化学沉积的过程包括:步骤一、将基板装载在基板载具30上;步骤二、对基板进行酸洗;步骤三、基板载具30将基板移动至容纳槽20v中,以对基板进行电化学沉积;步骤四、将基板移出容纳槽20v,并对基板进行水洗;步骤五、对基板进行抗氧化处理,以保证基板上沉积的膜层不被氧化;步骤六、对基板进行纯水清洗,并进行风刀烘干。其中,在对基板进行电化学沉积时,可以使用普通药水(电镀液)或快速沉积药水,可以通过控制电流密度来实现各种药水的沉积。
为了提高电化学沉积设备的稳定性,延长其使用寿命,可选地,槽体20采用不易变形、耐酸、耐碱的材料制成,槽体20侧壁外可以设置加强筋21。
在一些实施例中,电化学沉积设备还包括电源装置(未示出),所述电源装置的阳极输出端与电极结构10连接,所述电源装置的阴极输出端与基板载具30连接。图9为本公开的一些实施例中提供的基板载具的立体图,图10为本公开的一些实施例中提供的基板载具的正视图,如图9和图10所示,基板载具30包括通电部31和夹持部32,通电部31和夹持部32围成框形结构,从而对基板01进行夹持。当然,基板载具30也可以采用其他结构,在此不做限定。
在一些实施例中,电极结构10的数量为两个,两个电极结构10相对设置,并分别位于基板载具30所装载的基板01两侧,从而同时对基板01的两个表面进行电镀,或者,利用基板载具30同时装载两个基板01,从而对同时对两个基板01进行电镀,进而提高产能,并节省电镀液。
在一些实施例中,电化学沉积设备还包括:输气管路40,图11为 本公开的一些实施例中提供的输气管路的示意图,其中,输气管路40设置在容纳槽20v内、且位于容纳槽20v底部,如图11所示,输气管路40具有进气口41和多个出气口42,输气管路40的进气口41与气源连通,输气管路40的出气口42用于向容纳槽20v内排出气体,以对容纳槽20v中的电镀液进行空气搅拌。在进行电沉积工艺之前,通过对电镀液进行空气搅拌,实现电镀液的充分混合,保证后续的电沉积工艺中的成膜均一性。
如图4和图5所示,在一些实施例中,电化学沉积设备还包括与电极结构一一对应的分流板50,分流板50设置在相应的电极结构10朝向基板载具30的一侧。图12为本公开的一些实施例提供的分流板的立体图,图13为沿图12中AA线的剖视图,如图12和图13所示,分流板50包括:容纳壳体51和多个回液管路52,容纳壳体51包括:第一壁、与第一壁511相对设置的第二壁512以及连接在第一壁511与第二壁512之间的侧壁513,第一壁511位于第二壁512朝向基板载具30的一侧,第一壁511、第二壁512和侧壁513围成容纳腔,容纳壳体51上设置有进液口51a和多个出液口51b,进液口51a和出液口51b均与容纳腔连通,出液口51b设置在第一壁511上。可选地,进液口51a设置在侧壁513上,且进液口51a的数量也可以为多个。回液管路52穿过容纳腔,回液管路52沿分流板50的厚度方向穿过容纳壳体51。回液管路52的两端开口可以分别位于第一壁511和第二壁512上,当然,回液管路52的两端开口也可以分别突出于第一壁511和第二壁512。
可选地,分流板50可以固定在容纳槽20v中,从而将容纳槽20v分隔为多个容纳空间,例如,如图5所示,分流板50的数量为两个,则将容纳槽20v分隔为三个容纳空间。两个电极结构和基板分别位于三个容纳空间中。在进行电化学沉积工艺时,电镀液从入液口通入容纳腔内,并从出液口51b输出,分流板50两侧的液体通过回液管路52流通。在实际应用中,可以按照需要对出液口51b的孔径和分布密度进行调整,从而进一步提高基板上沉积的膜层厚度的均一性。
在一些实施例中,如图4至图8所示,电化学沉积设备还包括排液管路71和过滤装置60,排液管路71的入口与容纳槽20v连通。过滤装置60具有过滤入口和过滤出口,过滤入口与排液管路71的出口连通,过滤出口与分流板50的进液口连通,过滤装置60用于对流入其过滤入口的电镀液进行过滤,从而滤除电镀液中的一些杂质。
