Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of vacuum brazing technology, specifically to a CVD longitudinal fin water-cooled plate structure for semiconductors and its vacuum brazing process. Background Technology

[0002] Semiconductor chemical vapor deposition (CVD) is a commonly used technique for preparing thin films. During CVD, it is necessary to control the temperature within the reaction chamber and cool the material. Water cooling plates are typically used to cool the film reaction chamber.

[0003] A water-cooled plate is a heat transfer device that uses water as the cooling medium. It is typically made of metal (such as copper or aluminum) and has internal channels and passages to guide the flow of cold water. This cold water absorbs excess heat by contacting the reaction chamber walls and is then dissipated through an external water-cooling system. Water-cooled plates allow for temperature control within the reaction chamber, ensuring stable reaction conditions and improving the uniformity and quality of thin film deposition. Furthermore, water-cooled plates can increase the reaction rate and enhance deposition efficiency.

[0004] The uniformity and stability of the water-cooled plate structure directly affect its heat dissipation effect. Currently, in the process of preparing the water-cooled plate structure, it is easily affected by some unstable factors, resulting in uneven heat conduction during the use of the overall structure. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a CVD longitudinal fin water-cooled plate structure for semiconductors and its vacuum brazing process, which can improve the production efficiency and product quality stability of the water-cooled plate structure.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0007] A CVD longitudinal fin water-cooled plate structure for semiconductors includes an oxygen-free copper square cavity component. The oxygen-free copper square cavity component has a hollow cooling flow chamber. Multiple U-shaped copper sheets are fixed in the cooling flow chamber. The bottom and top of the oxygen-free copper square cavity component each have a cover plate connecting and receiving groove that communicates with the cooling flow chamber. A sealing lower cover plate and a sealing upper cover plate are respectively fixed in the cover plate connecting and receiving grooves at the bottom and top of the oxygen-free copper square cavity component.

[0008] The oxygen-free copper square cavity part has cooling water inlet holes and cooling water outlet holes on its side that are connected to the cooling flow chamber.

[0009] The present invention also provides a vacuum brazing process for the above-mentioned CVD longitudinal fin water-cooled plate structure for semiconductors, comprising the following steps:

[0010] S1. Parts cleaning:

[0011] Clean the lower sealing cover plate, the upper sealing cover plate, the oxygen-free copper square cavity parts and multiple U-shaped copper sheets to remove oil and oxides from the surface of each part.

[0012] S2. Install the U-shaped copper sheet:

[0013] The oxygen-free copper square cavity part is clamped on the positioning fixture. Then, multiple U-shaped copper sheets are placed at equal intervals inside the cooling flow chamber. A 2-5 mm thick layer of nickel-based solder paste is applied to the part where the U-shaped copper sheets contact the cooling flow chamber, and the nickel-based solder paste is allowed to solidify.

[0014] S3. Install oxygen-free copper cover plate parts:

[0015] Apply a 2-5 mm thick layer of nickel-based solder paste to the areas where the lower and upper sealing cover plates contact the U-shaped copper sheet. Fix the lower and upper sealing cover plates in the cover plate connection and receiving grooves on the lower and upper sides of the oxygen-free copper square cavity part, respectively, and clamp and fix the lower and upper sealing cover plates while waiting for the nickel-based solder paste to solidify.

[0016] S4. Apply additional solder paste:

[0017] Apply 2-5mm thick solder paste to the gap between the lower and upper sealing cover plates and the contact area between the cover plate and the receiving groove, and wait for the solder paste to solidify.

[0019] S5. Weld the entire water-cooled plate structure:

[0020] The assembled water-cooled plate structure, together with the positioning fixture, is placed in a vacuum brazing furnace for welding.

[0021] S6. Cool and remove from the oven:

[0022] Turn off the brazing furnace and allow the welded water-cooled plate structure to cool to room temperature along with the furnace before removing it.

[0023] S7. Leak detection process:

[0024] Leakage rate testing was performed on the welded water-cooled plate structure; the leakage rate was <1×10⁻⁶. -9 mbar.L / s indicates a qualified product.

[0025] Preferably, the specific welding process in step S5 is as follows: turn on the brazing furnace, and after the temperature inside the brazing furnace reaches 350°C, keep it at that temperature for 35 minutes;

[0026] Then, the assembled water-cooled plate structure, together with the positioning fixture, is placed into a vacuum brazing furnace and held at a furnace temperature of 350℃ for 20-30 minutes.

[0027] Then, the brazing furnace is heated to 650°C uniformly over 40–60 minutes and held at that temperature for 30–40 minutes.

[0028] Then, the brazing furnace is heated to 970°C uniformly over 40–60 minutes and held at that temperature for 30–40 minutes.

[0029] Then, the brazing furnace is heated to 1040℃ uniformly over 20-30 minutes and held for 5-8 minutes.

[0030] Preferably, the specific cooling process in step S6 is as follows: the brazing furnace is turned off, and the water-cooled plate structure after welding is cooled together with the furnace. After the temperature inside the brazing furnace drops to 600°C, argon or nitrogen is introduced into the brazing furnace.

[0031] After the temperature inside the brazing furnace continues to drop to 50°C, remove the welded water-cooled plate structure along with the positioning fixture from the brazing furnace and let it cool to room temperature.

[0032] Preferably, in the vacuum brazing process of a CVD longitudinal fin water-cooled plate structure for semiconductors as described above, the positioning fixture used includes two positioning support cylinders. The sidewalls of the positioning support cylinders have multiple fastening slider receiving holes that extend radially through them, and fastening constraint sliders are slidably connected in the fastening slider receiving holes.

[0033] An end face limiting ring is fixed to the outside of the positioning support cylinder;

The slider synchronous drive ring has multiple synchronous drive constraint grooves on its side. The side of the slider is fixed with drive mating posts, and the drive mating posts slide and engage in the synchronous drive constraint grooves one by one.

[0035] A slider synchronous drive shaft is rotatably connected inside the positioning support cylinder. A synchronous drive bevel gear is fixed to one end of the slider synchronous drive shaft, and a synchronous driven bevel gear is fixed to the end face of the slider synchronous drive ring. A manual driven bevel gear is fixed to the other end of the slider synchronous drive shaft. The manual driven bevel gear is meshed with a manual drive bevel gear. The side wall of the positioning support cylinder has a manual gear shaft through hole that runs along the rotation axis of the manual drive bevel gear. The rotation axis of the manual drive bevel gear is rotatably connected in the manual gear shaft through hole.

[0036] Two positioning support cylinders are connected to the base support structure, which includes a base support plate. The base support plate is fixed with a positioning support side plate by a base support rod, and the two positioning support cylinders are fixedly connected to the side of the positioning support side plate.

[0037] Description: This positioning fixture provides good support and stability constraint for the water-cooled plate structure during the welding process, positions and constrains each part of the water-cooled plate structure, ensures the overall welding accuracy of the water-cooled plate structure, and greatly improves the pass rate of the final product.

[0038] Preferably, the positioning support cylinder is provided with a gap retaining mechanism, which includes a gap retaining receiving shell fixed on the inner side wall of the positioning support cylinder. The gap retaining receiving shell has multiple slider mating grooves that communicate with each other on the side, and a gap retaining slider is slidably connected in the slider mating groove.

[0039] The top of the gap-holding housing is slidably connected to a slider telescopic drive plate. The sliding direction of the slider telescopic drive plate is perpendicular to the sliding direction of the gap-holding slider. The slider telescopic drive plate has multiple slider telescopic constraint grooves. The part of the gap-holding slider inside the gap-holding housing is fixed with a slider telescopic constraint post. The slider telescopic constraint posts are slidably fitted in the slider telescopic constraint grooves one by one.

[0040] A slider drive housing is fixed on the side of the clearance retaining housing away from the slider mating groove. A slider drive shaft is rotatably connected inside the slider drive housing. One end of the slider drive shaft extends into the interior of the clearance retaining housing. A telescopic drive gear is fixed at the end of the slider drive shaft that extends into the clearance retaining housing. A telescopic driven rack is fixed on the lower side of the slider telescopic drive plate. The telescopic drive gear and the telescopic driven rack are meshed and connected.

[0041] The other end of the slider drive shaft is fixed with a telescopic driven bevel gear, which meshes with a telescopic drive bevel gear. The top of the slider drive housing has a telescopic gear shaft mating hole that is open to both the inside and outside. The rotating shaft of the telescopic drive bevel gear is rotatably connected in the telescopic gear shaft mating hole. The upper side of the positioning support cylinder has a telescopic adjustment through hole that is coaxial with the telescopic gear shaft mating hole.

[0042] Explanation: In the gap holding mechanism, multiple gap holding sliders are inserted one-to-one into the gaps between multiple U-shaped copper sheets, so that the multiple U-shaped copper sheets are arranged at equal intervals and remain stable, avoiding misalignment or displacement between the U-shaped copper sheets during the welding process.

[0043] Preferably, the positioning support cylinder is connected to an upper cover plate counterweight mechanism, which includes a counterweight mechanism support plate fixedly connected to the upper side of the positioning support cylinder, and a counterweight mechanism rotating plate rotatably connected to the top of the counterweight mechanism support plate.

The other end of the counterweight deflection support arm is connected to a counterweight plate via a second counterweight fixing hinge. The top of the counterweight plate has multiple counterweight receiving slots.

[0045] Note: The upper cover plate pressure mechanism applies pre-pressure to the sealing upper cover plate, which helps to maintain the stability of the sealing upper cover plate during the welding process and prevents the sealing upper cover plate from being misaligned or shifted.

The lifting drive worm is meshed with the lifting drive worm wheel. The side wall of the support mechanism housing cylinder has a lifting adjustment through hole that runs through the rotation axis of the lifting drive worm wheel.

[0049] Note: In the lower cover plate support mechanism, the lifting and lowering of the cover plate support column is manually adjusted. The cover plate support column drives the top plate of the support column to press against the bottom of the sealed lower cover plate, which is used to maintain the stability of the sealed lower cover plate.

[0050] Preferably, a gap isolation mechanism is used in conjunction with the gap maintaining mechanism. The gap isolation mechanism includes two gap isolation receiving shells with openings facing away from each other. A plurality of C-shaped spring plates are fixedly connected between the two gap isolation receiving shells. A sliding connecting ring and a sliding connecting post are fixedly fixed on the side of the two gap isolation receiving shells that are close to each other. The sliding connecting post is slidably engaged in the sliding connecting ring.

[0051] The gap isolation housing contains a gap isolation magnet, and the sides of the gap isolation magnets that are close to each other have the same polarity.

[0052] Instructions: The two gap isolation housings, together with the gap isolation magnets, press against the sidewalls between two adjacent U-shaped copper sheets to maintain the stable and equidistant arrangement of multiple U-shaped copper sheets. When in use, a thin steel wire is tied to the sliding connecting ring to facilitate the removal of the gap isolation mechanism after welding.

[0053] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are reflected in the following aspects:

[0054] 1. This invention involves assembling the oxygen-free copper cover plate, the oxygen-free copper square cavity, and the U-shaped copper sheet in a single process, followed by vacuum brazing in a vacuum furnace. This reduces the instability factors during the forming and welding of traditional U-shaped water channels, improves the uniformity of the product, and provides reliable heat dissipation for the cooling system.

[0055] 2. This invention utilizes the positioning fixture to provide good support and stability constraint for the water-cooled plate structure during the welding process, and to position and constrain each part of the water-cooled plate structure, ensuring the overall welding accuracy of the water-cooled plate structure, resulting in better welding strength and higher reliability of the finished water-cooled plate structure, and significantly improving the qualification rate of the final product.

[0056] 3. In the gap holding mechanism of the present invention, multiple gap holding sliders are inserted one-to-one into the gaps between multiple U-shaped copper sheets, so that the multiple U-shaped copper sheets are arranged at equal intervals and remain stable, avoiding misalignment and displacement between the U-shaped copper sheets during the welding process.

[0057] 4. In this invention, the upper cover plate pressure mechanism applies pre-pressure to the sealing upper cover plate, and the lower cover plate support mechanism provides top pressure support to the sealing lower cover plate, maintaining the stability of the sealing upper and lower cover plates during the welding process and preventing misalignment or displacement during welding.

[0080] S2. Install the U-shaped copper sheet:

[0081] The oxygen-free copper square cavity part 10 is clamped on the positioning fixture 20. Then, multiple U-shaped copper sheets 11 are arranged at equal intervals inside the cooling flow chamber 101. A 5mm thick nickel-based solder paste is applied to the part where the U-shaped copper sheets 11 contact the cooling flow chamber 101, and the nickel-based solder paste is allowed to solidify.

[0082] S3. Install oxygen-free copper cover plate parts:

[0083] Apply a 5mm thick layer of nickel-based solder paste to the areas where the lower sealing cover plate 121 and the upper sealing cover plate 122 contact the U-shaped copper sheet 11.

[0089] The specific welding process is as follows: turn on the brazing furnace, and after the temperature inside the brazing furnace reaches 350℃, keep it at that temperature for 35 minutes.

[0090] Then, the assembled water-cooled plate structure, together with the positioning fixture, is placed into a vacuum brazing furnace and held at a furnace temperature of 350℃ for 30 minutes.

[0091] Then, the brazing furnace is heated to 650°C uniformly over 60 minutes and held at that temperature for 40 minutes.

[0115] Then, the assembled water-cooled plate structure, together with the positioning fixture, is placed into a vacuum brazing furnace and held at a furnace temperature of 350℃ for 25 minutes.

[0116] Then, within 50 minutes, the brazing furnace is heated to 650°C and held at that temperature for 35 minutes.

[0137] A gap isolation magnet 390 is fixed inside the gap isolation housing 391, and the gap isolation magnets 390 on the side that are close to each other have the same polarity.

[0138] In practical application, the positioning fixture 20 of the present invention first fixes the oxygen-free copper square cavity part 10 on the positioning support cylinder 21, and inserts the cooling water inlet hole 131 and the cooling water outlet hole 132 into the two positioning support cylinders 21 respectively. The end of the rotating shaft of the manual drive bevel gear 236 has an internal hexagonal hole. By rotating the rotating shaft of the manual drive bevel gear 236 with a hexagonal screwdriver, the manual drive bevel gear 236 is driven to rotate. The manual drive bevel gear 236 drives the manual driven bevel gear 235 together with the slider synchronous drive shaft 232 and The synchronous drive bevel gear 233 rotates together, and the synchronous drive bevel gear 233 drives the synchronous driven bevel gear 234 to rotate together with the slider synchronous drive ring 23. Under the constraint of the synchronous drive constraint groove 231, the drive mating column 221 drives the fastening constraint slider 22 to move away from each other along the radial direction of the positioning support cylinder 21. The outer sides of the multiple fastening constraint sliders 22 press against the inner sidewalls of the cooling water inlet hole 131 and the cooling water outlet hole 132, so that the oxygen-free copper square cavity part 10 can be fixedly installed on the positioning support cylinder 21.

[0139] Then, multiple U-shaped copper sheets 11 are arranged at equal intervals and placed into the cooling flow chamber 101. The end of the rotating shaft of the telescopic drive bevel gear 345 has an internal hexagonal hole. Using a hexagonal screwdriver to rotate the rotating shaft of the telescopic drive bevel gear 345, the telescopic drive bevel gear 345 is rotated. The telescopic drive bevel gear 345 drives the telescopic driven bevel gear 344 to rotate together with the slider drive shaft 341 and the telescopic drive gear 342. The telescopic drive gear 342 drives the telescopic driven rack 343 to move together with the slider telescopic drive plate 33. Under the constraint of the slider telescopic constraint groove 331, the slider telescopic constraint column 332 drives the gap holding slider 32 to extend out of the slider mating groove 311. Multiple gap holding sliders 32 are inserted one-to-one into the gaps between the multiple U-shaped copper sheets 11, so that the multiple U-shaped copper sheets 11 are arranged at equal intervals and remain stable. Nickel-based solder paste is applied to the part of the U-shaped copper sheet 11 that contacts the cooling flow chamber 101, and the nickel-based solder paste is allowed to solidify.

[0140] A gap isolation mechanism 39 is placed in each gap between multiple U-shaped copper sheets 11. Two gap isolation housings 391, together with gap isolation magnets 390, press against the side wall between two adjacent U-shaped copper sheets 11 to maintain the stable arrangement of multiple U-shaped copper sheets 11 with equal spacing. When in use, a thin steel wire is tied to the sliding connecting ring 393, and the other end of the steel wire extends out from the cooling water inlet hole 131 or the cooling water outlet hole 132, so that the gap isolation mechanism 39 can be removed after welding is completed.

[0141] The high temperature during the welding process will demagnetize the gap isolation magnet 390, reducing the maximum static friction between the gap isolation mechanism 39 and the sidewalls of the two adjacent U-shaped copper sheets 11. After welding, the gap isolation mechanism 39 can be pulled out along the steel wire.

[0142] Next, install the lower sealing cover plate 121 and the upper sealing cover plate 122. Apply nickel-based solder paste to the parts of the lower sealing cover plate 121 and the upper sealing cover plate 122 that contact the U-shaped copper sheet 11. Fix the lower sealing cover plate 121 and the upper sealing cover plate 122 in the cover plate connecting receiving grooves 102 on the lower and upper sides of the oxygen-free copper square cavity part 10, respectively. The end of the rotating shaft of the lifting drive worm gear 55 has an internal hexagonal hole. Use a hexagonal screwdriver to drive the rotating shaft of the lifting drive worm gear 55 to rotate together with the lifting drive worm gear 55 through the lifting adjustment through hole 510. The lifting drive worm gear 55 drives the lifting drive worm wheel 54 to rotate. Under the thread transmission constraint between the lifting drive threaded hole 541 and the cover plate support column 52, the cover plate support column 52 is driven to move vertically upward along the axis of the support column mating hole 511. The cover plate support column 52 drives the support column top plate 521 to move upward together, so that the support column top plate 521 presses against the bottom of the lower sealing cover plate 121.

[0143] Manually drive the counterweight deflection support arm 43 to deflect around the axis of the counterweight mechanism rotating disk 42, so that the counterweight plate 44 is above the sealing upper cover plate 122. Manually drive the counterweight deflection support arm 43 to move down and deflect around the rotation axis of the first counterweight fixing hinge 421, so that the counterweight plate 44 presses on the top of the sealing upper cover plate 122, and puts the counterweight block into the counterweight block receiving groove 441. Wait for the nickel-based solder paste at the contact part between the sealing lower cover plate 121 and the sealing upper cover plate 122 and the U-shaped copper sheet 11 to solidify.

[0144] Finally, apply solder paste to the gaps where the lower sealing cover plate 121 and the upper sealing cover plate 122 contact with the cover plate connecting receiving groove 102, and wait for the solder paste to solidify.

[0145] Once the brazing furnace is ready, the assembled water-cooled plate structure, along with the positioning fixture 20, can be placed into the vacuum brazing furnace for welding.
