[0041] The spectrum detector 52 is used for accurate detection of the semiconductor wafer film on the heat-conducting disk 32. When the spectrum detector 52 is working, the detection structure 5 descends to the installation groove, and the heat-conducting disk 32 descends to the set position.

An air inlet pipe and an air outlet pipe are arranged in the guide channel. Two layers of annular channels communicating with the air inlet pipe and the air outlet pipe are opened in the air guide ring 25. The air inlet pipe and the air outlet pipe are respectively communicated with the two annular channels. Two groups of air holes communicating with the two annular channels are respectively opened at the upper end and the side end of the air guide ring 25.

[0046] An electric guide rail is installed at the bottom end of the second motor 42, and the electric guide rail is used to adjust the position of the second motor 42, thereby adjusting the transmission gear ring 23 to separate from the transmission gear. The electric guide rail can be turned on and operated when the auxiliary turntable 3 at the set position rotates to match the position of the detection structure 5.

[0047] A sliding hole matching the power structure 4 is provided between the upper reaction chamber and the lower equipment chamber, a sealing groove matching the main disk body 21 is provided on the inner wall of the upper reaction chamber, the sealing groove covers the movable range of the main disk body 21, and a sealing pad is laid at the bottom end of the main disk body 21.

[0048] When the vapor deposition device 1 of the present embodiment is working, the semiconductor wafer on the heat-conducting plate 32 rotates with the main plate body 21, and the heater 33 is turned on to heat the heat-conducting plate 32;

[0049] During the rotation of the main plate 21, each auxiliary turntable 3 is periodically matched with the detection structure 5 in turn and stopped for 1-3 seconds, so that the laser detector 53 performs single-point detection on the semiconductor wafer; after all the semiconductor wafers placed on the auxiliary turntables 3 are detected;

[0054] Then, the second motor 42 is independently controlled to work, so that the inner shaft 22 drives the auxiliary turntable 3 to rotate. At this time, the rotation of the semiconductor crystal is detected by the spectrum detector 52. During the detection process, the second motor 42 and the position of the loading plate 2 are driven by the electric guide rail to achieve horizontal adjustment of the position of the semiconductor crystal, so that the spectrum detector 52 can fully detect the semiconductor wafer.

[0055] After the detection, the movable table 51 and the heat conducting plate 32 are reset, and the gas supply is restored to continue the thin film vapor deposition operation.

[0056] This embodiment realizes real-time rough detection during thin film vapor deposition process and facilitates accurate detection of closed semiconductor wafers.

[0057] Second implementation method:

[0058] Figure 7 As shown, it also includes an auxiliary detection system, which includes a processor installed on the vapor deposition device 1, and the processor is connected to a control module, a detection module, a data processing module and an image recognition module;

[0059] The control module is provided with a power control unit and an airflow control unit. The power control unit is used to control the rotation of the main plate body 21 and the auxiliary turntable 3; specifically, the rotation speed and direction of the main plate body 21 and the auxiliary turntable 3 are controlled to ensure the correct position of the semiconductor wafer and the accuracy of detection.

[0060] The airflow control unit is used to control the air intake and exhaust of the vapor deposition device 1 and the ventilation of the ventilation pipe 6 to ensure the stability of the detection environment and the detection accuracy; the auxiliary turntable 3 and the power structure 4 are both connected to the control module signal;

[0061] The image recognition module is used to calibrate the rotation angle of the main plate body 21 and identify the position of the loading plate 2 and the auxiliary turntable 3;

[0062] The data processing module is used to collect and process data from the spectrum detector and the laser detector, convert the detection results into readable numerical values ​​and image information, and store them.

[0063] The detection module is used to analyze the film thickness data on the semiconductor wafer according to the data processing results, and the detection module is connected to a data analysis unit and a spectrometer;

[0064] Spectral detector 52: used to accurately detect the thickness and quality of the semiconductor wafer film on the heat conducting plate 32, and evaluate the film characteristics by analyzing the reflected or transmitted spectral information;

[0065] Laser detector 53: performs single-point detection on semiconductor wafers for rapid positioning and preliminary evaluation of film thickness on the wafer;

[0066] The image recognition module is used to calibrate the rotation angle of the main positioning plate body 21 to ensure the accuracy of detection, identify the position of the loading plate 2 and the auxiliary turntable 3, provide accurate coordinate information for detection, and assist in determining the accuracy of position adjustment.

[0067] During the normal operation of the vapor deposition device 1, the processor receives data from the control module, the detection module, the data processing module and the image recognition module in real time, and performs comprehensive analysis based on the data to ensure the stability of the entire deposition process and the uniformity of the film quality.

[0068] When the semiconductor wafer rotates on the main plate body 21 , the image recognition module monitors the rotation angle of the main plate body 21 in real time, and compares it with the rotation angle fed back by the second motor 42 or the first motor 41 to detect whether the wafer rotates normally.

[0069] When the semiconductor wafer rotates to the predetermined detection position, the processor controls the laser detector 53 to detect. The laser detector 53 performs single-point detection on the film, quickly locates and preliminarily evaluates the film thickness, and the detection results are fed back to the data processing module;

[0070] The data processing module will collect the data of the laser detector for analysis, convert the test results into readable numerical values ​​or image information, and store and process them. The test will determine whether the film meets the predetermined quality standards based on these data. If it does not meet the standards or the film thickness is deposited to the set value, the control module will control the lifting rod to work, and the loading plate 2 will stop rotating as a whole, so that the movable table 51 corresponds to the position of the corresponding semiconductor wafer, and drive the movable table 51 to descend to cover the upper side of the semiconductor wafer, and the semiconductor wafer will descend into the installation groove, so that the installation groove can independently close the semiconductor wafer, so that the spectrum detector 52 on the movable table 51 can perform accurate detection;

[0071] When the spectrum detector 52 detects, the semiconductor wafer rotates under the driving action of the inner shaft 22, thereby realizing multi-point detection. During the rotation, the auxiliary electric guide rail drives the loading plate 2 to move as a whole, thereby realizing the spectrum detector 52 to fully detect the thin film on the semiconductor wafer;

[0072] The data processing module will collect the data of the spectrum detector 52 for analysis and convert the detection results into readable numerical values ​​or image information;

[0073] Then, the detection module determines whether the film reaches the predetermined quality standard based on these data. If not, the control module adjusts the operation of the vapor deposition equipment 1 and the deposition parameters, such as airflow, temperature, etc., to optimize the deposition process.

[0074] After the deposition process is completed, the processor will generate a detailed report based on the final inspection results, including key parameters such as film thickness, uniformity, and defects. These data can be used for subsequent process optimization and quality control.

[0075] Through the auxiliary detection system of this embodiment, it is possible to fully monitor and accurately detect the thickness of thin film deposition on the semiconductor surface in the vapor deposition device 1, thereby improving the quality and production efficiency of thin film deposition.

[0076] In summary, this solution realizes real-time monitoring and precise control of the semiconductor thin film deposition process. By precisely controlling deposition parameters and real-time monitoring of film quality, it ensures the uniformity and quality of thin film deposition, easily improves production efficiency, and facilitates automatic detection of film thickness and quality, which saves manpower.

[0077] In view of current practical needs, the above-mentioned implementation mode adopted in this application is not limited to the scope of protection. Various changes made within the knowledge scope of technical personnel in this field without departing from the concept of this application still fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
