An accompanying piece and a
film coating clamp for indirectly measuring the film thickness of a
wafer belong to the technical field of film thickness probe measurement. The accompanying piece is composed of a square
silicon substrate and an
alloy mask closely adhered with a square through hole. The surface of the
film coating clamp is a spherical cap, and multiple circular grooves are arranged circumferentially for placing the
wafer. A rectangular groove is arranged between adjacent grooves for placing the accompanying piece, and semicircular grooves are arranged at the midpoint of both sides of the rectangular groove to adapt to the thickness of the
mask. During
film coating, the accompanying piece and the
wafer are deposited with a thin film at the same time, and the film thickness of the wafer is indirectly calculated by measuring the
height difference of the film step on the substrate of the accompanying piece. The length-
width ratio and the through hole ratio of the accompanying piece can ensure the flatness of the film step, and the flatness and roughness of the substrate and the
mask ensure close adhesion. The device avoids damage caused by direct contact with the wafer, solves the problems of large film thickness measurement error of high reflection material, shielding
pollution, etc., and improves the measurement accuracy and reliability.
