Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of semiconductor equipment technology, and in particular to a film thickness measurement device and method. Background Art
[0002] Thin film materials are widely used in fields such as semiconductor manufacturing and optical devices. These thin films can range from dielectric films such as SiN2, Poly-Si, and SiO2 to metallic films such as Al and Cu, with thicknesses typically ranging from nanometers to micrometers. Film thickness measurement is a key technology in semiconductor manufacturing and optical devices, and accurate film thickness measurement is crucial to ensuring product quality, performance, and reliability. With the advancement of semiconductor manufacturing and precision optical technology, the demand for film thickness measurement equipment in semiconductor front-end production is increasing.
[0003] Currently, the most commonly used film thickness measurement instruments in the semiconductor field are spectroscopic ellipsometers and spectroscopic reflectometers. Spectroscopic ellipsometers measure the change in polarization state of linearly polarized light after it is reflected by a thin film sample, and then use a model to fit the film thickness. They are primarily used to measure film thicknesses ranging from tens of angstroms to several microns. Spectroscopic reflectometers analyze the reflection spectrum formed by the coherence of light reflected from the upper and lower surfaces of a film, and then use a fitting operation to determine the film thickness. They are primarily used to measure film thickness at the micron level.
[0004] Currently, in the semiconductor manufacturing field, due to the wide range of thin film sample thicknesses and the limited measurement range of spectroscopic ellipsometers and spectroscopic reflectometers, single spectroscopic ellipsometers and spectroscopic reflectometers often cannot meet a wide range of measurement needs. To ensure measurement accuracy and stability, a spectroscopic ellipsometer and spectroscopic reflectometer must be assembled together.

[0054] Example 1
[0055] This embodiment provides a film thickness measurement device for improving the film thickness measurement range and device integration of the sample to be measured, reducing the footprint of the device, and meeting various film thickness measurement needs of users. Figure 1 The film thickness measuring device of this embodiment includes a main unit 2.
[0056] The main machine 2 includes a machine body 21 and an optical-mechanical module 22 and a motion-carrying module 23 located in the machine body 21. The motion-carrying module 23 is used to carry the sample to be tested and adjust the position of the sample to be tested. The optical-mechanical module 22 includes a light source component 221, a first optical component 222 and a second optical component 223. The light source component 221 and the first optical component 222 constitute a first measuring system, and the light source component 221 and the second optical component 223 constitute a second measuring system. The film thickness of the sample to be tested can be measured by the first measuring system or the second measuring system, where the film thickness is the film thickness of the sample to be tested.
[0057] In an optional embodiment, the first measurement system is an ellipsometric measurement system, and the film thickness measurement range of the first measurement system is 2nm to 5μm. The first measurement system has higher measurement accuracy when measuring the thickness of relatively thin films. Optionally, when the film thickness of the sample to be measured is greater than or equal to the minimum film thickness and less than the middle value of the film thickness, the film thickness of the sample to be measured is obtained by measuring the first measurement system. Furthermore, the minimum film thickness is 2nm, and the middle value of the film thickness can be set according to actual needs. For example, the middle value of the film thickness can be 100nm, 200nm, 300nm, 400nm, 500nm, 600nm, 700nm, 800nm or other values between any two of the above value points.
[0058] In an optional embodiment, the second measurement system is a reflection measurement system, and the film thickness measurement range of the second measurement system is 50nm to 5μm. The second measurement system has higher measurement accuracy when measuring the thickness of relatively thick thin films. Optionally, when the film thickness of the sample to be measured is greater than or equal to the middle value of the film thickness, and less than or equal to the maximum value of the film thickness, the film thickness of the sample to be measured is obtained by measuring the second measurement system, and further, the maximum value of the film thickness is 5μm. By using the second measurement system to measure the film thickness of the sample to be measured with a thicker film thickness, and using the first measurement system to measure the film thickness of the sample to be measured with a thinner film thickness, the film thickness measurement range of the film thickness measurement device is improved, and it is ensured that within the film thickness measurement range, the measurement results have a higher measurement accuracy.
[0059] By cooperating with the second measurement system, the film thickness measurement of a wider film thickness range is achieved while ensuring the measurement accuracy, and the first measurement system and the second measurement system share the same light source component 221, which effectively improves the utilization rate of the light source, simplifies the optical system layout, improves the integration of the optical-mechanical module 22, reduces the volume of the optical-mechanical module 22, and reduces the cost.

Furthermore, the first parabola 2101 and the second parabola 2102 are respectively located on both sides of the light source 2021, the first parabola 2101 is located in the beam splitter 2212, and the second parabola 2102 is located on the side of the light source 2021 away from the beam splitter 2212. The first source light radiated by the light source 2021 can be irradiated to the first parabola 2101 and the second parabola 2102, and the emission direction of the first parallel source light is perpendicular to the emission direction of the second parallel source light.

The second parallel light generated after the first light is split by the beam splitter 2212 is input into the imaging system through the first connector 2036. After being transmitted by the fourth light transmitter 2002, it enters the fourth collimator 2004. After being collimated by the fourth collimator 2004, it is reflected and redirected by the third beam splitter 2006 and the fourth beam splitter 2007 respectively, and then irradiated onto the sample to be tested through the third objective lens 2009.
