Problems solved by technology

During the reciprocating up and down movement of the vertical wafer boat, position deviation will occur. When the position of the wafer boat is offset too much, the edge of the wafer in the vertical wafer boat will easily scratch the support rod, resulting in product defects.
[0004] At present, the monitoring of the position of the vertical crystal boat adopts the method of manually opening the door to check the corrected position. After checking the corrected position, it is necessary to run testrun to witness the internal environmental particles of the crystal boat, which seriously affects the running time of the vertical furnace tube machine.

Abstract

The invention discloses a system for detecting the position of a vertical wafer boat, and relates to the field of semiconductor manufacturing. A method for detecting the position of the vertical waferboat comprises the following steps: debugging a detection system of the position of the vertical wafer boat, and matching the detection system of the position of the vertical wafer boat with a predetermined wafer boat position on a transmission device; starting a laser emitter, and emitting laser by the laser emitter; detecting whether the photoelectric sensor sends an electric signal through thesignal processor; if it is detected that the photoelectric sensor sends an electric signal, determining that the position of the vertical wafer boat does not deviate; and if it is not detected that the photoelectric sensor sends the electric signal, determining that the position of the vertical wafer boat deviates. The system for detecting the position of the vertical wafer boat comprises at least three baffle plates arranged at the top of the vertical wafer boat, a reflecting plate, the laser emitter, the photoelectric sensor and a signal processor. The problem of long time consumption for monitoring the position of the vertical wafer boat at present is solved; and the effects of rapidly checking the position of the vertical wafer boat and not influencing the internal environment of themachine table are achieved.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to the field of semiconductor manufacturing, in particular to a detection system and detection method for the position of a vertical crystal boat. Background technique [0002] The vertical furnace tube machine is one of the important equipment in the front-end process of the semiconductor production line. It is used for the diffusion, oxidation, annealing and alloying of products such as large-scale integrated circuits, discrete devices, power electronics, optoelectronic devices and optical fibers. [0003] When using the vertical furnace tube machine to process wafers, it is necessary to use the vertical wafer boat to carry the wafer, and the vertical wafer boat moves vertically under the drive of the transmission device, and enters and exits the reaction chamber of the vertical furnace tube machine. The vertical wafer boat includes support rods and support feet, the support feet are evenly arranged inside the support ...
