[0040] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, and when describing with reference to the accompanying drawings, the same or corresponding components are given the same reference numerals regardless of the drawing numbers, and repeated description thereof is omitted.
[0041] Figure 1 FIG. 1 is a diagram showing a substrate processing apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention.
[0042] refer to Figure 1 The substrate processing device 10 is configured to include a process chamber 100, a substrate support part 200, a shower head 300, a first gas tank 410, a second gas tank 420, a first power supply part 510, a second power supply part 520, a third power supply part 530, a heater 600, a heat medium supply part 710 and a coolant supply part 720.
[0043] The process chamber 100 provides a processing space 101 for a substrate W. A discharge port 120 may be provided at a bottom surface of the process chamber 100. The discharge port 120 is connected to a discharge pipe 121. Byproducts and gases generated in the process of the substrate W may be discharged to the outside through the discharge port 120 and the discharge pipe 121.
[0044] The process chamber 100 may be provided with a liner 130 inside. The liner 130 may prevent the inner surface of the process chamber 100 from being damaged due to arc discharge, and may prevent impurities generated when a process is performed on the substrate W from being deposited into the process chamber 100. To this end, the liner 130 may be attached to the inner surface of the process chamber 100 to surround the substrate support part 200.
[0045] The substrate support part 200 plays a role of supporting the substrate W. The substrate support part 200 may be disposed at a lower portion of the processing space 101 .
[0046] The substrate support part 200 is configured to include a base plate 210 , a body 220 , a chuck 230 , a focus ring 240 , and a ring support 250 .
[0047] The base plate 210 plays a role of supporting the body 220, the chuck 230, the focus ring 240, and the ring support 250. The base plate 210 may be an insulator.
[0048] The main body 220 may be disposed between the base plate 210 and the chuck 230. A heat medium circulation pipe 221 and a refrigerant circulation pipe 222 may be disposed inside the main body 220. Heat medium may circulate through the heat medium circulation pipe 221, and refrigerant may circulate through the refrigerant circulation pipe 222. The heat medium circulation pipe 221 and the refrigerant circulation pipe 222 may be arranged in a spiral shape inside the main body 220. As heat medium circulates through the heat medium circulation pipe 221, the main body 220 may be heated, and as refrigerant circulates through the refrigerant circulation pipe 222, the main body 220 may be cooled.
[0049] The body 220 may be made of metal. The chuck 230 in close contact with the body 220 may be affected by the temperature of the body 220. As the body 220 is heated, the chuck 230 may be heated, and as the body 220 is cooled, the chuck 230 may be cooled.
[0050] A heat medium supply pipe 221a for supplying heat medium to an upper portion of the chuck 230 may be connected to the heat medium circulation pipe 221. The heat medium may be supplied to the substrate W through the heat medium supply pipe 221a.
[0051] The heat medium supply part 710 supplies heat medium to the heat medium circulation pipe 221, and the refrigerant supply part 720 may supply refrigerant to the refrigerant circulation pipe 222. In the present invention, the heat medium as an inert gas may be helium, but the heat medium of the present invention is not limited to helium.
[0052] The chuck 230 plays a role of supporting the substrate W. In the present invention, the chuck 230 may be an electrostatic chuck. That is, the chuck 230 may adsorb the substrate W by electrostatic force. However, the chuck 230 of the present invention is not limited to the electrostatic chuck, and the chuck 230 may also clamp and support the substrate W in a mechanized manner. Hereinafter, the case where the chuck 230 is an electrostatic chuck will be mainly described.
[0053] The body of the chuck 230 may be a dielectric. An electrostatic electrode 231 and a heating unit 232 may be provided inside the chuck 230. The electrostatic electrode 231 may be electrically connected to the second power supply part 520. The electrostatic electrode 231 may generate an electrostatic force by the power supplied from the second power supply part 520. The substrate W may be adsorbed onto the chuck 230 by the electrostatic force.
[0054] The heating unit 232 may be electrically connected to the third power supply part 530. The heating unit 232 may be heated by the power supplied from the third power supply part 530. The heat of the heating unit 232 may be transferred to the substrate W. The substrate W may be kept at a certain temperature by the heat of the heating unit 232. The heating unit 232 may be provided in the shape of a coil and arranged in a spiral shape inside the chuck 230.
[0055] The second power supply part 520 supplies power to the electrostatic electrode 231, and the third power supply part 530 may supply power to the heating unit 232. Here, the power supplied by the second power supply part 520 may be direct current power.
[0056] The focus ring 240 may be provided in a ring shape and arranged to surround the edge of the chuck 230. The focus ring 240 plays a role in adjusting the electric field formed at the edge of the chuck 230. To this end, the focus ring 240 may be formed of a material having a certain dielectric constant.
[0057] The ring support 250 may support the focus ring 240 relative to the base plate 210. The focus ring 240 may be maintained at a certain height relative to the base plate 210 by the ring support 250 and may be maintained in a state of surrounding the edge of the chuck 230. The ring support 250 may be formed of an insulating material.
[0058] While the process is performed on the substrate W by plasma, the focus ring 240 may be etched. As described above, the focus ring 240 has a certain dielectric constant and adjusts the electric field formed at the edge of the chuck 230, wherein when the focus ring 240 is etched, the overall dielectric constant changes, thereby possibly changing the shape of the electric field. The electric field may determine the direction of the plasma entering the substrate W. As the shape of the electric field changes, the direction of the plasma entering the substrate W changes, and an appropriate process may not be performed on the substrate W.
[0059] The focus ring 240 that cannot form an appropriate electric field may be replaced with a new focus ring 240. When the thickness of the focus ring 240 is formed thicker, the service life of the focus ring 240 may be increased, but when the focus ring 240 is too thick, an inappropriate electric field may also be formed.
[0060] Therefore, the focus ring 240 according to an embodiment of the present invention may be composed of a plurality of layers. The dielectric constant and shape of each of the plurality of layers may be determined so that the change in the electric field that changes as the focus ring 240 is etched is weakened. For example, the respective layers have different dielectric constants, and in the case where the upper layer is removed by etching, the focus ring 240 with a reduced height forms an electric field similar to the previous one. Figures 2 to 7 The focus ring 240 is described in detail.
[0061] The shower head 300 plays a role of spraying a process gas for performing a process on the substrate W toward the substrate W. The shower head 300 may be disposed at an upper portion of the processing space 101. The process gas sprayed from the shower head 300 is sprayed in a downward direction to reach the substrate W.
[0062] In the present invention, the process gas for processing the substrate W may include a first process gas GS1 and a second process gas GS2. The first process gas GS1 and the second process gas GS2 may flow into the processing space 101 through the process gas inlet 110. A first inflow pipe 111 and a second inflow pipe 112 may be connected to the process gas inlet 110. The first process gas GS1 moves through the first inflow pipe 111 and flows into the processing space 101, and the second process gas GS2 may move through the second inflow pipe 112 and flow into the processing space 101.
[0063] The first process gas GS1 and the second process gas GS2 may react with each other and be sprayed to the substrate W. For example, the first process gas GS1 acts as a reaction gas, and the second process gas GS2 acts as a source gas. That is, the first process gas GS1 may activate the second process gas GS2. The first process gas GS1 may react with the second process gas GS2 after being converted into plasma. Hereinafter, the plasma generated using the first process gas GS1 is referred to as the first plasma.
[0064] The nozzle 300 may spray the first process gas GS1 and the second process gas GS2 onto the substrate W. The first process gas GS1 and the second process gas GS2 may be sprayed sequentially. After being sprayed through the nozzle 300, the first process gas GS1 and the second process gas GS2 may collide with each other to react. In addition, the second process gas GS2 activated by the first process gas GS1 reaches the substrate W, thereby performing a process on the substrate W. For example, the activated second process gas GS2 may be deposited onto the substrate W in the form of a thin film.
[0065] The showerhead 300 is configured to include an electrode plate 310, a spray portion 320, and an annular dielectric plate 330. The electrode plate 310 can receive RF power. The RF power can be provided by a first power supply portion 510. A wider surface on one side of the electrode plate 310 can be arranged to be closely attached to the inner upper surface of the process chamber 100.
[0066] The injection part 320 is arranged at the lower side of the electrode plate 310 and plays the role of injecting the first process gas GS1 and the second process gas GS2. To this end, the injection part 320 may be provided with an injection hole SH for injecting the first process gas GS1 and the second process gas GS2. The first process gas GS1 and the second process gas GS2 may flow into the processing space 101 through the injection hole SH.
[0067] The annular dielectric plate 330 serves to electrically isolate the electrode plate 310 from the injection portion 320. To this end, the annular dielectric plate 330 may be made of a dielectric material and disposed between the electrode plate 310 and the injection portion 320. The annular dielectric plate 330 may be arranged in a ring shape at the edge between the electrode plate 310 and the injection portion 320. In addition, the electrode plate 310 and the injection portion 320, except for the edge, may be spaced apart from each other by a certain distance. Therefore, a certain space may be formed between the electrode plate 310 and the injection portion 320. Hereinafter, the space formed between the electrode plate 310 and the injection portion 320 is referred to as the gas processing space 102.
[0068] The gas processing space 102 may be communicated with the injection holes SH.
[0069] The second process gas GS2 supplied to the injection part 320 may be discharged through the injection hole SH while being diffused in the gas processing space 102. Hereinafter, the plasma generated using the second process gas GS2 is referred to as the second plasma. The second process gas GS2 may be provided as silane (SiH 4 ). The second plasma may include hydrogen plasma.
[0070] The first gas tank 410 may contain a first process gas GS1, and the second gas tank 420 may contain a second process gas GS2. A first valve V1 is provided on the first inflow pipe 111 connecting the first gas tank 410 and the process gas inlet 110, and similarly, a second valve V2 is provided on the second inflow pipe 112 connecting the second gas tank 420 and the process gas inlet 110. In the case of performing a process on the substrate W, the first valve V1 and the second valve V2 are opened so that the first process gas GS1 and the second process gas GS2 can be injected into the processing space 101 of the process chamber 100. In addition, at the end of the process on the substrate W, the first valve V1 and the second valve V2 are closed so that the first process gas GS1 and the second process gas GS2 can be blocked from being injected into the interior of the process chamber 100.
[0071] The heater 600 plays a role of heating the injection part 320. The second process gas GS2 injected into the injection part 320 may be injected through the injection hole SH after being heated. As the second process gas GS2 is heated, the reaction of the second process gas GS2 with the first plasma may be more actively performed.
[0072] Figure 2 It is shown Figure 1 The focus ring is shown in Figure 1. Figure 3 It is shown Figure 2 A cross-sectional view of the focus ring is shown, and Figures 4 to 8 is a diagram showing a cross section of a focus ring according to another embodiment of the present invention.
[0073] refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the focusing ring 240 is configured to include a base layer 241 and a reinforcement layer 242 .
[0074] The base layer 241 and the reinforcement layer 242 have different dielectric constants, and the reinforcement layer 242 may be stacked on the base layer 241. Specifically, the reinforcement layer 242 may be formed of a material having a higher dielectric constant than the base layer 241.
[0075] The base layer 241 may include a first plane portion 241a, a second plane portion 241b, and an inclined portion 241c. The first plane portion 241a may be parallel to the ground and adjacent to the substrate W. The second plane portion 241b may be parallel to the ground and may be further away from the substrate W than the first plane portion 241a. The inclined portion 241c may be inclined relative to the ground and connect the first plane portion 241a and the second plane portion 241b.
[0076] The inclined portion 241 c may be formed such that the distance from the ground increases as it is farther away from the substrate W. Therefore, the height of the second plane portion 241 b may be formed to be higher than that of the first plane portion 241 a.
[0077] The reinforcement layer 242 may be formed to be stacked on the first plane portion 241a, the second plane portion 241b, and the inclined portion 241c as a whole. The reinforcement layer 242 may be formed to be thicker at the second plane portion 241b than at the first plane portion 241a and the inclined portion 241c. The thickness of the reinforcement layer (hereinafter referred to as the second plane layer 242b) stacked on the second plane portion 241b may be formed to be larger than the thickness D1 and D3 of the reinforcement layer (hereinafter referred to as the first plane layer 242a and the inclined layer 242c) stacked on the first plane portion 241a and the inclined portion 241c.
[0078] In the case where the focus ring 240 is etched while a process is performed on the substrate W, the second plane layer 242b may be etched prior to the first plane layer 242a and the inclined layer 242c. Since the second plane layer 242b is formed thicker, the first plane layer 242a and the second plane layer 242b may be etched at substantially the same time. Therefore, a change in the electric field generated as the reinforcing layer 242 and the base layer 241 are simultaneously exposed to the substrate processing space 101 may be prevented.
[0079] refer to Figure 4 , the focusing ring 810 is configured to include a base layer 811 , a reinforcement layer 812 and an additional reinforcement layer 813 .
[0080] The reinforcement layer 812 may include a first planar layer 812a, a second planar layer 812b, and an inclined layer 813c. The additional reinforcement layer 813 may be stacked on the second planar layer 812b. The dielectric constant of the additional reinforcement layer 813 may be the same as or greater than the dielectric constant of the reinforcement layer 812. In the case where the focus ring 810 is etched while the process is performed on the substrate W, the etching of the additional reinforcement layer 813 may be performed preferentially. Since the second planar layer 812b still exists even after the etching of the additional reinforcement layer 813 is completed, the change in the electric field caused by the etching of the focus ring 810 can be weakened.
[0081] refer to Figure 5 , the focusing ring 820 is configured to include a base layer 821 and a reinforcement layer 822 .
[0082] The reinforcing layer 822 may include a first plane layer 822a, a second plane layer 822b, and an inclined layer 822c. The reinforcing layer 822 may be formed such that its thickness becomes thicker as it moves away from the substrate W. The thickness of each of the first plane layer 822a, the second plane layer 822b, and the inclined layer 822c may gradually become thicker as it moves away from the substrate W along the first plane portion 821a, the second plane portion 821b, and the inclined portion 821c of the base layer 821.
[0083] refer to Figure 6 , the focusing ring 830 is configured to include a base layer 831 and a reinforcement layer 832 .
[0084] The reinforcement layer 832 may be configured to include a plurality of sub-reinforcement layers 832a and 832b having different dielectric constants. The uppermost sub-reinforcement layer 832b of the plurality of sub-reinforcement layers 832a and 832b has the highest dielectric constant, and the dielectric constant may decrease toward the lower side. That is, the uppermost sub-reinforcement layer 832b has the highest dielectric constant, the base layer 831 has the lowest dielectric constant, and the middle sub-reinforcement layer 832a may have a dielectric constant of an intermediate size.
[0085] Figure 6The reinforcement layer 832 is shown to include two sub-reinforcement layers 832a and 832b, but according to some embodiments of the present invention, the reinforcement layer 832 may include three or more sub-reinforcement layers.
[0086] The thickness of the sub-reinforcement layers 832a and 832b is as follows: Figure 6 The same may be shown, or Figure 7 and Figure 8 The shown may also be different.
[0087] refer to Figure 7 and Figure 8 , the focusing rings 840 and 850 are configured to include base layers 841 and 851 and reinforcement layers 842 and 852 .
[0088] The reinforcement layers 842 and 852 may be configured to include a plurality of sub-reinforcement layers 842a and 842b and 852a and 852b having different dielectric constants. The uppermost sub-reinforcement layers 842b and 852b of the plurality of sub-reinforcement layers 842a and 842b and 852a and 852b have the highest dielectric constant, and the dielectric constant may decrease toward the bottom.
