[0018] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions in this application, the technical solutions in this application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in this application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field should fall within the scope of protection of this application.
[0019] The specific implementation of this application is further explained below in conjunction with the drawings of this application.
[0020] Figure 1 A schematic diagram of an optional processing flow of the correction method provided by the present application is shown below. Figure 1 Steps S101-S105 are shown for explanation.
[0021] Step 101 : In the process of polishing the conductive layer on the wafer, an original signal is collected by an eddy current sensor.
[0022] In some embodiments, during a chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) process, an eddy current sensor can be used to monitor and acquire the original signal of the wafer during the polishing process in real time. The original signal can be used to indicate the thickness of the metal layer in different areas on the wafer or the thickness of the metal layer on a retaining ring around the wafer.
[0023] In the present application, the polishing process of the conductive layer on the wafer can be a testing process or a processing process, both of which are within the protection scope of the present application.
[0024] Step 102: Separate the amplitude signal and the phase signal from the original signal, determine the target feature point located in the area where the retaining ring is located according to the amplitude signal, and obtain the thickness information of the target feature point.
[0025] In some embodiments, the original signal collected in real time using the eddy current sensor contains information about the thickness change of the metal layer on the wafer, and the amplitude signal and the phase signal can be separated from the original signal.
[0026] The target feature point in the area where the retaining ring is located can be determined based on the preset position range in the amplitude signal. Figure 2 As shown, Figure 2The figure shows a schematic diagram of the amplitude signal. The target feature point corresponding to the position range of 160 mm-190 mm from the center of the circle in the amplitude signal can be determined as the target feature point of the area where the retaining ring is located. Figure 2 In the figure, the target feature point corresponding to the AC curve can be determined as the target feature point of the area where the retaining ring is located, and the target feature point corresponding to the curve DE symmetrical to AC on the right side of the coordinate axis is also the target feature point of the area where the retaining ring is located.
[0027] The first area and the second area where the retaining ring is located can be determined based on the amplitude value and position information corresponding to the target feature point in the area where the retaining ring is located. Figure 2 As shown in the curve corresponding to the amplitude signal, the target feature point corresponding to the peak value of point B is located at the center of the retaining ring; the target feature point corresponding to the AB curve is located outside the retaining ring; and the target feature point corresponding to the BC curve is located inside the retaining ring. The position corresponding to point O is the center point of the retaining ring. The retaining ring is symmetrical around the center point of the circle. Therefore Figure 2 The curves corresponding to the target feature points on both sides of point O should also be symmetrical around point O.
[0028] After determining the retaining ring area, the first area and the second area in the area where the retaining ring is located can be determined based on the position information corresponding to each feature point in the amplitude signal. The target feature point in the first area can be determined as the first feature point, and the target feature point in the second area can be determined as the second feature point. The thickness information corresponding to the first feature point on the first area can be further determined, and the thickness information corresponding to the second feature point on the second area can be determined. The positions of the first area and the second area on the retaining ring are in a left-right symmetrical relationship based on point O. The first area and the second area can both be the outer area of the retaining ring, or both can be the inner area of the retaining ring. As an example, Figure 2 As shown, the area corresponding to the AB curve or the BC curve on the retaining ring can be determined as the first area; correspondingly, the area in the DE curve that is symmetrical to the first area (AB curve or BC curve) is determined as the second area; the target feature point in the first area is determined as the first feature point, and the target feature point in the second area is determined as the second feature point.
[0029] Step 103: Determine the position information corresponding to the target feature point in the original signal according to the thickness information of the target feature point.
[0030] In some embodiments, the average value of the thickness information corresponding to the first feature point can be determined as the first thickness average value; the average value of the thickness information corresponding to the second feature point can be determined as the second thickness average value; based on the first thickness average value and the second thickness average value, the position information corresponding to the feature point in the original signal is determined.
[0031] The specific method for determining the position information corresponding to the feature point in the original signal according to the first thickness average value and the second thickness average value can be: determining the first candidate feature point and the second candidate feature point in the first area on the retaining ring according to the first thickness average value, the thickness information corresponding to the first candidate feature point is less than the first thickness average value, and the thickness information corresponding to the second candidate feature point is greater than the first thickness average value; determining a first linear fitting line according to the thickness information and position information corresponding to the first candidate feature point, and the thickness information and position information corresponding to the second candidate feature point, and the first linear fitting line can be used to indicate the relationship between the thickness value and position information corresponding to a point on the wafer.
[0032] like Figure 3 As shown, Figure 3 Figure 2 shows a schematic diagram of linear fitting of characteristic points on the retaining ring area. Figure 3 In , the horizontal axis represents the position information corresponding to the feature point, and the vertical axis represents the thickness information corresponding to the feature point. Taking the feature points including data point 1, data point 2 and data point 3 as an example, the horizontal axis represents the position information corresponding to the feature point; the vertical axis represents the thickness information corresponding to the feature point, and the thickness of the target feature point corresponding to the intersection F of the dotted line represents the average thickness corresponding to these feature points. The coordinates of the target feature point corresponding to the intersection represent the position information corresponding to the thickness average when the thickness of the feature point is the thickness average. Two adjacent data points can be determined from adjacent data point 1 and data point 2, and adjacent data point 2 and data point 3, where the thickness information corresponding to one data point is less than the thickness information corresponding to point F, and the thickness information corresponding to the other data point is greater than the thickness information corresponding to point F. Therefore, data point 1 can be determined as the first candidate feature point, and data point 2 can be determined as the second candidate feature point; the corresponding linear fitting line is determined according to the thickness information and position information corresponding to the first candidate feature point, and the thickness information and position information corresponding to the second candidate feature point.
[0033] Similarly, the third candidate feature point and the fourth candidate feature point of the second area on the retaining ring can be determined based on the second thickness average value, the thickness information of the third candidate feature point is less than the second thickness average value, and the thickness information of the fourth candidate feature point is greater than the second thickness average value; the second linear fitting line can be determined based on the thickness information and position information corresponding to the third candidate feature point, and based on the thickness information and position information corresponding to the fourth candidate feature point.
[0034] After obtaining the thickness information of the feature point on the area where the retaining ring is located through the amplitude signal, the first target position corresponding to the thickness information of the feature point in the first linear fitting line can be determined based on the first target position corresponding to the feature point in the second linear fitting line, and the second target position corresponding to the feature point in the second linear fitting line can be determined. The first target position and the second target position are determined as the position information corresponding to the feature point.
[0035] Step 104: Determine an offset according to the position information.
[0036] In some embodiments, after obtaining the position information corresponding to the feature point, the difference between the first target position and the second target position can be determined as an offset, which is used to indicate the deviation between the actual position and the theoretical position of the target feature point being polished during the polishing process of the wafer.
[0037] Since the retaining ring and the wafer are theoretically symmetrical based on the center of the circle, and the collected signal may have deviations that lead to asymmetry, the collected signal can be calibrated according to the symmetry of the retaining ring to correct the signal deviation. By dividing the area where the retaining ring is located into a first area and a second area, determining the first target position according to the first linear fitting line and determining the second target position according to the second linear fitting line, a more accurate position offset of the target feature point can be obtained, thereby achieving a more accurate calibration of the deviation later.
[0038] Step 105: calibrate at least the phase signal according to the offset, and determine the metal film thickness at least according to the calibrated phase signal.
[0039] In some embodiments, after obtaining the offset, the correction direction of the phase signal can be determined based on the value of the offset, the phase signal can be offset-calibrated based on the correction direction and the offset, and the thickness of the metal film can be determined based on the calibrated phase signal; the amplitude signal can also be calibrated in the same way; or the phase signal can be calibrated based on the offset, and then the original signal can be updated based on the calibrated phase signal and amplitude signal, and the thickness of the metal film can be determined based on the updated original signal; or the thickness of the metal film can be determined based on the calibrated phase signal and the updated original signal. As an example, Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram for calibrating the phase signal. Figure 4 In the example, if the magnitude of the offset is the distance between HI, the phase signal is moved to the right along the horizontal axis by the distance corresponding to the offset HI.
[0040] For the above-mentioned embodiment of the metal film thickness measurement method based on eddy current, Figure 5 FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a metal film thickness measuring device for eddy current in one embodiment of the present application. Figure 5 As shown, the metal film thickness measuring device 500 comprises:
[0041] The acquisition module 501 is used to acquire the original signal through the eddy current sensor during the process of polishing the metal layer on the wafer, wherein the original signal is used to indicate the thickness of the metal layer on the wafer or the thickness of the metal layer on the retaining ring outside the wafer;
[0042] An acquisition module 502 is used to separate an amplitude signal and a phase signal from the original signal, and determine a target feature point located in the area where the retaining ring is located according to the amplitude signal, and obtain thickness information of the target feature point;
