Problems solved by technology

[0008] Loosely affixed particles of substrate material remain in some plasma etch systems, adversely affecting the integrity of the substrate and the semiconductor component in which it is incorporated
Systems that roughen the surface and then chemically etch improve the removal of these loosely held particles of substrate material, but in some cases the substrate may contain particulate matter or small cracks that create particulate matter that Substances move during further processing of semiconductor components
As mentioned above, these particles can adversely affect the function of the substrate material and the semiconductor wafers produced from the substrate material

[0017] The present invention generally relates to a method of making a substrate suitable for use in semiconductor processing, in which method the surface of the substrate is first roughened and finally a thin layer of a coating composition is applied, said composition being preferably Is a dielectric to provide a non-conductive surface suitable for further processing into substrate materials for semiconductor components.

[0018] The surface of the semiconductor material must first be roughened to remove surface material that would adversely affect the properties of the substrate material, which improves the adhesion of the surface and makes it suitable for use in the manufacture of wafers, etc. semiconductor components. The substrate material can be any material suitable for use in the semiconductor industry, such as quartz, ceramics, metal oxides (including alumina) and metals (eg aluminum). Quartz is a particularly useful substrate material because it is a dielectric and ...

Embodiment 1

[0029]A thin wafer substrate made of quartz with a layer of silicon dioxide (Sample 1) was bead blasted using silicon carbide to obtain a surface roughness of 180-220 microinches Ra at a cut length of 0.03 inches. The bead blasted wafers were then treated with 70% nitric acid at 33% v / v, 69% hydrofluoric acid at 33% v / v, and deionized water at 34% for 1-2 minutes.

[0030] The wafers thus treated are then rinsed in deionized water and placed in an ultrasonic cleaning vessel at >5.0 megohm-cm in deionized water at 75-90°F Sonicate at high temperature for 2 minutes. The wafer was then dried using 0.01 micron filtered nitrogen and baked at 250°F for 2 hours under a nitrogen atmosphere.

[0031] A coating composition having an alumina content of greater than 98% is applied to the wafer thus dried and baked to form a coating thickness of 0.002 inches on the surface of the wafer to produce a coating with sufficient adhesion to be subsequently prepared Particle displacement is at l...

Embodiment 2

[0033] Samples 2-18 were prepared in the same manner as Sample 1, except that the coating, coating thickness, and surface roughness of the wafer were changed, as shown in Table 1.

Abstract

A process of producing a clean substrate for use in semi-conductor processing in which the substrate is roughened to produce microfissures therein and then treated with a high concentration of a strong acid followed by coating with a material containing at least one metal oxide.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention generally relates to the preparation of substrates suitable for semiconductor processing in which the surface of the substrate is first roughened to promote adhesion of coatings. The surface is then treated to remove residual particles from the substrate and then coated with the metal oxide composition. Background technique [0002] Substrate materials such as quartz are used in the semiconductor industry for many purposes (eg, etching of dielectric barrier layers in process chambers). It is often necessary to mechanically enhance the surface of the substrate to increase the surface area. [0003] Mechanical reinforcement can be accomplished by surface treatment with abrasives under pressure, commonly known as bead blasting, see for example US Patent Nos. 5,202,008; 5,391,275 and 6,565,667, each of which is referenced incorporated in this article. [0004] Bead blasting is often used to remove existing coatings from substrate s...
