[0045] Some embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. In the absence of conflict, the following embodiments and features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.
[0046] Example 1
[0047] The performance of electrochemical deposition (ECD) equipment currently on the market cannot meet the needs of development. One of the problems is that bubbles may be mixed into the plating solution during the pipeline circulation process, reducing the concentration of the plating solution. In this way, the bubbles in the plating solution cannot be discharged before they come into contact with the wafer, causing the bubbles to come into contact with the wafer surface, making it impossible to achieve metal deposition in the area covered by the bubbles, and then causing low-lying pits in the plating layer, which ultimately causes quality problems such as poor uniformity of the plating thickness on the wafer.
[0048] This embodiment provides a technical solution to solve this defect, as shown below:
[0049] Reference Figure 1-Figure 8 , Figure 1 It is a schematic diagram of the three-dimensional structure of the plating solution degassing device of this embodiment; Figure 2 For this embodiment Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the cross-sectional structure after cutting along the longitudinal plane; Figure 3 For this embodiment Figure 2 A schematic diagram of the front structure of Figure 4 For this embodiment Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the front structure of Figure 5 For this embodiment Figure 1 Schematic diagram of the cross-section structure after cutting along the horizontal plane; Figure 6 It is a schematic structural diagram of the plating liquid degassing device of this embodiment when the liquid discharge port 103 and the gas exhaust port 104 are placed horizontally; Figure 7 For this embodiment Figure 6 Schematic diagram of the cross-section structure after cutting along the horizontal plane; Figure 8 It is a schematic diagram of the cross-sectional structure of the arc-shaped baffle and the discharge guide port of the present invention.
[0050] A plating liquid degassing device comprises a cavity 1, wherein a degassing cavity 101 is arranged inside the cavity 1, wherein a liquid inlet 102, a liquid discharge port 103 and an exhaust port 104 are arranged in the cavity 1, wherein the liquid inlet 102 is communicated with the degassing cavity 101, and the liquid discharge port 103 and the exhaust port 104 are arranged opposite to each other and are communicated with each other through a connecting pipe 2, i.e., the two ends of the connecting pipe 2 respectively surround the liquid discharge port 103 and the exhaust port 104, and isolate the communication between the liquid discharge port 103, the exhaust port 104 and the degassing cavity 101.
[0051] The cross section of the degassing chamber 101 is circular, which can accelerate the fluid (i.e., the plating solution) entering the liquid inlet 102 to rotate in the degassing chamber 101 and form a laminar flow. The discharge guide port 201 includes a guide port 2011 and a discharge port 2012. The diameter of the guide port 2011 is larger than that of the discharge port 2012. Figure 8 As shown, the guide port 2011 has a larger diameter to facilitate flow guidance, and the discharge port 2012 has a smaller diameter, so that the guided fluid is not so easily discharged, and the plating solution is more fully rotated and accelerated in the degassing chamber 101, so that the bubbles are better precipitated. Therefore, the discharge guide port 201 can guide the laminar flow, and at the same time, the fluid can collide with the side wall of the discharge guide port 201 when being discharged through the discharge port 2012. Since the discharge port 2012 has a smaller diameter, it is equivalent to squeezing the fluid, and can also accelerate the fluid to collide with the inner wall of the discharge guide port 201 and discharge, thereby promoting the bubble precipitation again.
[0052] The connecting pipe 2 is provided with a discharge guide port 201 , and the connecting pipe 2 is connected with the degassing chamber 101 through the discharge guide port 201 , that is, the liquid discharge port 103 and the air discharge port 104 can be connected with the degassing chamber 101 through the discharge guide port 201 .
[0053] When placing the drain port 103, the exhaust port 104 and the liquid inlet 102, it should be noted that the exhaust port 104 can be set horizontally or upward (the exhaust port 104 is set upwardly inclined or vertically upward) to facilitate the discharge of precipitated bubbles; the drain port 103 is set horizontally or downward (the drain port 103 is set downwardly inclined or vertically downward) to facilitate the discharge of the plating solution after the bubbles are precipitated.
[0054] In this way, the present application can inject plating liquid into the degassing chamber 101 through the liquid inlet 102. The injected plating liquid (i.e., the plating liquid entering the degassing chamber 101, referred to as the inlet liquid) has a certain flow rate and impact force. The injected plating liquid flows in the degassing chamber 101 and fully collides with the inner wall of the chamber and the connecting pipe. Under the drainage and guiding action of the discharge guide port 201, the bubbles in the plating liquid are precipitated, and the precipitated bubbles are discharged from the exhaust port 104. The plating liquid after the bubbles are precipitated is discharged from the discharge port 103, thereby increasing the concentration of the plating liquid.
[0055] In this embodiment, when the drain port 103 and the exhaust port 104 are both arranged horizontally, the exhaust port 104 is preferably further provided with an exhaust pipe 3, and the inlet end of the exhaust pipe 3 extends into the drain port 103. The injected plating solution flows and rotates in the degassing chamber 101, collides with the inner wall of the chamber 1 and the connecting pipe 2, forms a laminar flow under the action of centrifugal force, and precipitates bubbles in the plating solution, especially the plating solution is drained under the action of the discharge guide port 201, because the inlet end of the exhaust pipe 3 extends into the drain port 103, that is, the diameter of the drain port 103 is larger than the diameter of the exhaust pipe 3, the plating solution forms a vortex in the drain port 103, because a negative pressure is generated at the center of the vortex, and because the pressure in the direction of the exhaust port 104 is relatively small, the precipitated and gathered gas is discharged from the exhaust pipe 3, and the concentration of the plating solution discharged from the drain port 103 is made more uniform.
[0056] In this embodiment, the cavity 1 is a cylindrical structure with a more regular cavity shape, and the degassing cavity 101 is cylindrical as a whole with a circular cross-section; an annular cavity is formed between the outer wall of the connecting tube 2 and the inner wall of the degassing cavity 101, so that the incoming liquid can accelerate the rotation along the annular cavity to form a laminar flow to precipitate bubbles.
[0057] The cavity 1 includes a first circular plate 105 , a second circular plate 106 and a ring body 107 . The first circular plate 105 and the second circular plate 106 are respectively sealed and disposed at two end openings of the ring body 107 .
[0058] It should be noted that the first circular plate 105 and the second circular plate 106 are designed to be circular, which is a preferred design. They can also be designed to be other shapes as long as they can be installed at the two end openings of the ring body 107 to achieve a sealed connection.
[0059] More preferably, if Figure 1 As shown, the exhaust port 104 is arranged at the center position of the first circular plate 105, the liquid discharge port 103 is arranged at the center position of the second circular plate 106, and the liquid inlet 102 is arranged on the ring body 107. The liquid discharge port 103 and the exhaust port 104 are coaxially arranged, and the connecting tube 2 is coaxially arranged with the liquid discharge port 103 to facilitate the discharge of bubbles.
[0060] Preferably, the second circular plate 106 and the ring body 107 are an integral structure, which can increase the overall structural strength and sealing performance. The first circular plate 105 and the ring body 107 are connected by bolts, and an O-ring 108 is provided at the connection between the first circular plate 105 and the ring body 107. After the second circular plate 106 and the ring body 107 are an integral structure, a groove body is formed, and the groove in the groove body is the degassing chamber 101. The first circular plate 105 serves as a cover of the groove body for easy opening and closing. The first circular plate 105 and the ring body are bolted together by multiple bolts, and the O-ring 108 is used to ensure the sealing performance of the connection between them.
[0061] It should be noted that a plurality of bolt holes are provided on the first circular plate 105 , and a plurality of threaded holes are correspondingly provided on the circular surface where the ring body 107 contacts the first circular plate 105 , so as to facilitate bolt connection between the first circular plate 105 and the ring body 107 .
[0062] Preferably, the cross section of the connecting pipe 2 is circular, the connecting pipe 2 is a linear circular pipe, and the connecting pipe 2 is penetrated along its length direction to open a plurality of discharge guide ports 201, the connecting pipe 2 is divided into a plurality of arc-shaped baffles 202 by the plurality of discharge guide ports 201, each arc-shaped baffle 202 exists as an individual, and the plurality of arc-shaped baffles 202 are arranged in a circular array along the central axis of the discharge port 103, and the shapes of the arc-shaped baffles 202 and the discharge guide ports 201 are as follows: Figure 5 shown.
[0063] It should be noted that the discharge guide port 201 is preferably designed to be three and divided into three arc-shaped baffles 202. One end of the arc-shaped baffle 202 close to the discharge port 103 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the cavity 1, one end of the arc-shaped baffle 202 is an integral structure with the cavity 1 or connected by welding, and the other end of the arc-shaped baffle 202 is detachably connected to the inner side surface of the first circular plate 105, specifically, the other end of the arc-shaped baffle 202 abuts against the inner side surface of the first circular plate 105. More specifically, an abutment block 6 is provided on the inner side surface of the first circular plate 105 so that the arc-shaped baffle 202 abuts against it. In addition, after the abutment block 6 is provided, the space in the degassing chamber 101 can be reduced, and the plating solution can also collide and rub with the outer side surface of the abutment block 6 during the flow process, so as to facilitate the further precipitation of bubbles in the plating solution.
[0064] The discharge guide opening 201 is formed by cutting out the connecting pipe 2. After the discharge guide opening 201 is opened, two cut surfaces are formed on the two arc-shaped baffles 202 adjacent thereto. The two cut surfaces are respectively a first cut surface 2013 and a second cut surface 2014. Figure 8 The angle between the first cut surface 2013 and the second cut surface 2014 is in the range of 25°-35°. More preferably, the angle between the first cut surface 2013 and the second cut surface 2014 is designed to be 30°.
[0065] In this embodiment, when the plating liquid degassing device of the present application is in use, the liquid inlet 102, the liquid discharge port 103 and the exhaust port 104 are preferably arranged in such a manner that the central axis of the liquid inlet 102, the central axis of the liquid discharge port 103 and the central axis of the exhaust port 104 are in the same horizontal plane, such as Figure 6 and Figure 7 shown.
[0066] The present application also includes a liquid inlet pipe 4 and a liquid injection device, one end of the liquid inlet pipe 4 is connected to the liquid inlet 102, and the other end is connected to the liquid injection device. Specifically, the liquid inlet pipe 4 uses a first threaded joint, and the first threaded joint is connected to the liquid inlet 102 by threading.
[0067] The present application also includes a recovery device, and the outlet end of the exhaust pipe 3 is connected to the recovery device. A vortex is formed at the discharge port 103, and gas-liquid separation is achieved due to pressure and solubility reasons. If a small amount of plating liquid is discharged together with the bubbles in the exhaust pipe 3, the plating liquid is recycled and reused by the recovery device. Specifically, a second threaded joint 7 is installed at the exhaust port 104, and the second threaded joint 7 is connected to the exhaust port 104 by threads, and the exhaust pipe 3 is connected to the recovery device through the second threaded joint 7.
[0068] The present application also includes a drain pipe 5, which is installed at the drain port 103. Specifically, the drain pipe 5 uses a third threaded joint, which is connected to the drain port 103 by threads.
[0069] In this embodiment, the outer diameter of the cavity 1 is 90 mm, the inner diameter of the annular cavity is 34.6 mm, the outer diameter is 75 mm, and the height is 50 mm. The outer diameter of the abutment block 6 is 35 mm and the height is 15 mm. The inner diameter of the connecting pipe 2 is 24.6 mm and the outer diameter is 34.6 mm, that is, the thickness of the connecting pipe 2 is 5 mm. The inner diameter of the exhaust pipe 3 is 3.6 mm and the outer diameter is 6 mm. The diameter of the first circular plate 105 is 90 mm and the thickness is 10 mm.
[0070] When in use: the liquid injection device injects the plating liquid from the liquid inlet 102 into the degassing chamber 101, and the liquid is guided by multiple arc-shaped baffles 202, and circulates along the degassing chamber 101 to accelerate the rotation. During the rotating flow, the plating liquid rubs against the inner wall of the chamber 1, and the internal friction between the plating liquids forms a laminar flow under the action of centrifugal force. There is a certain flow rate difference between each plating liquid layer, and the bubbles are precipitated. The plating liquid is guided to be discharged toward the discharge port 103 through the discharge guide port 201, and a vortex is formed in the discharge direction of the plating liquid (i.e., in the discharge port 103). Since a negative pressure is generated at the center of the vortex, a small amount of gas remaining in the plating liquid can also be precipitated, and because the pressure toward the exhaust port 104 is relatively small, all the precipitated gas flows out along the exhaust pipe 3, and may be discharged from the exhaust port 104 together with part of the plating liquid, and enters the recovery device for recycling and reuse. After the plating liquid flows out from the discharge pipe 5, the concentration of the plating liquid is more uniform, so that in the subsequent steps, the coating thickness of the wafer is more uniform when the wafer is plated.
[0071] Example 2
[0072] The present embodiment provides an electrochemical deposition device, including the plating solution degassing device in Example 1, wherein the bubbles mixed in the plating solution are first precipitated through the plating solution degassing device to increase the concentration of the plating solution. When the plating operation is performed on the wafer, the uniformity of the wafer plating thickness can be improved, thereby getting rid of the defects existing in the prior art to prevent the bubbles in the plating solution from being unable to be discharged before they come into contact with the wafer during plating, causing the bubbles to come into contact with the wafer surface, thereby making it impossible to achieve metal deposition in the area covered by the bubbles, thereby causing low-lying pits to appear in the plating layer, and ultimately causing quality problems such as poor uniformity of the plating thickness on the wafer.
