Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of radio frequency technology, and in particular to a matching method, device, equipment and medium of a radio frequency matcher. Background Art
[0002] The RF source transmits the signal to the load through the RF matcher. The main function of the RF matcher is to maximize the transmission of the RF source signal to the load, that is, when the RF matcher is in a matching state, the RF matcher can maximize the transmission of the RF source signal to the load.

Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0050] It has been found through research that the RF source transmits the signal to the load through the RF matcher. The main function of the RF matcher is to maximize the transmission of the signal of the RF source to the load, that is, when the RF matcher is in a matching state, the RF matcher can maximize the transmission of the signal of the RF source to the load. The RF source will have several different powers in one cycle (that is, the cycle composed of the signal power input by the RF source to the matcher). For each different power, the capacitance value of the variable capacitor on the matcher must be mechanically adjusted to adjust the matcher to the matching state. Once the power changes, the matcher will lose the matching state. Because the power is constantly changing in a cycle, and the duration of each power is very short, it is difficult to adjust the variable capacitor to the capacitance value required for the matching state in a very short time, that is, for each different power, it is difficult to accurately adjust the matcher to the matching state.

[0053] The first sensor Sensor1 is used to sense the load impedance value of the load and convert the load impedance value Z(f) into Load The second sensor Sensor2 is used to sense the reflected power and send the reflected power to the controller Controller. In one cycle of the RF source, the capacitance values of the first variable capacitor C1 and the second variable capacitor C1 are first fixed to the ideal capacitance value (the capacitance value calculated in advance), and then the controller Controller adjusts the frequency f of the RF source according to the load impedance value, the capacitance impedance value of the matcher and the reflected power.

[0057] S300, when the RF source sends a signal to the RF matcher fixed to the ideal capacitance value at the power within the signal period, determining the matching degree of the RF matcher;
[0058] S400, according to the matching degree, by adjusting the frequency of the RF source, so as to adjust the RF matcher from the pre-matching state to a target matching state, wherein the target matching state is used to enable the RF matcher to transmit the output signal power of the RF source to the load of the RF matcher to the maximum extent.
[0059] In this embodiment, the ideal capacitance value in step S200 includes the ideal capacitance value of the first variable capacitor C1. and the ideal capacitance value of the second variable capacitor C2 This embodiment calculates the ideal capacitance value in advance for each RF source. and ideal capacitance value After that, in one cycle T of the RF source rp1 The capacitance value of the first variable capacitor C1 is fixed to The capacitance value of the second variable capacitor C2 is also fixed to Afterwards, every time the power of the RF source changes, the frequency of the signal input from the RF source to the RF matcher is adjusted so that the RF matcher can reach the target matching state at each power.
[0060] like Figure 3 As shown above and In the first cycle T rp1 When the other cycles after the first cycle, the capacitance value of the first variable capacitor C1 is fixed to The capacitance value of the second variable capacitor C2 is fixed to So that the RF matcher is in a pre-matching state, and then the frequency of the RF source input to the RF matcher is adjusted to make the RF matcher change from the pre-matching state to the best matching state (the best matching state is the target matching state. When the RF matcher is in the target matching state, the RF matcher can transmit the power of the RF source to the responsible party to the maximum extent, that is, the reflected power is zero).
[0061] like Figure 3 As shown, the first cycle T rp1 Included in the time period T 11 , time period T 12 , time period T 13 , time period T 14 , time period T 15 , time period T 16 , time period T 17 , the RF source is in the time period T 11 The power of the signal input to the RF matching device is P 11 , the RF source is in the time period T 12 The power of the signal input to the RF matching device is P 12 , the RF source is in the time period T 13 The power of the signal input to the RF matching device is P 13 , the RF source is in the time period T 14 The power of the signal input to the RF matching device is P 14 , the RF source is in the time period T 15 The power of the signal input to the RF matching device is P 13 , the RF source is in the time period T16 The power of the signal input to the RF matching device is P 12 , the RF source is in the time period T 17 The power of the signal input to the RF matching device is P 11 That is, the period is the power period of the signal input from the RF source to the RF matcher.
[0062] In this embodiment, in a period T rp1 Calculate the ideal capacitance value and ideal capacitance value In this embodiment, step S100 includes: Figure 4 The specific steps S101 to S108 shown are:
[0063] S101, collecting reflected power corresponding to each of the power levels, the capacitance impedance value of the RF matcher, and the load impedance value of the load, wherein the reflected power is the power of the output signal of the RF source that is not received by the load.
[0064] For example, the first cycle T rp1 There are several power levels, among which the jth power level is denoted as P 1j When the RF source inputs the RF matching device at a level of P 1j When the power is higher, the RF matching device will produce a corresponding capacitance impedance value. and load will also produce corresponding load impedance value (The first sensor Sensor1 is used to collect the load impedance value ). The structure of the RF matcher is as follows Figure 2 As shown, the first variable capacitor C1 and the second variable capacitor C2 are included. The connection method of the two in the RF matching device is known. Therefore, the capacitance impedance value in the RF matching device circuit can be calculated based on the impedance value of the first variable capacitor C1 and the impedance value of the second variable capacitor C2. The impedance value of the capacitor is calculated It is the prior art.
[0065] S102, adding the capacitance impedance value to the load impedance value to obtain a total impedance value
[0066]
[0067] S103, the total impedance value Subtract the set value 50 to get the first intermediate value
[0068] S104, the total impedance value Add the set value 50 to get the second intermediate value
[0069] S105: Determine a modulus of a ratio of the first intermediate value to the second intermediate value The module value and the reflected power corresponding to each of the power levels are used as the matching sub-degree corresponding to each of the power levels.
[0070] || || represents the modulus operation, is plural, so A modulo value exists. And the reflected power is the matching degree corresponding to the jth power level.
[0071] S106, adjusting the capacitance value of the variable capacitor until each of the matching sub-levels reaches a matching sub-state corresponding to each of the power levels, and obtaining ideal capacitance sub-values corresponding to several of the power levels.
[0072] That is, for the first cycle T rp1 The jth power level P within 1j , adjust the capacitance value of the first variable capacitor C1 and adjust the capacitance value of the second variable capacitor C2 until When the reflected power is equal to zero, or the reflected power is less than the threshold value, or the reflected power is also zero, the RF matching device reaches the matching state, and the capacitance value of the first variable capacitor C1 is the ideal capacitance value. Similarly, at this time, the capacitance value of the second variable capacitor C2 is the ideal capacitance value.
[0073] Among them, the two variable capacitors are both mechanical vacuum adjustable capacitors, and their electrodes are composed of two groups of metal plates. The fixed group of the two groups of electrodes is the fixed plate, and the rotatable group is the moving plate. The capacitance value is adjusted by adjusting the moving plate position C1_Position of C1, and the capacitance value is adjusted by adjusting the moving plate position C2_Position of C2.
[0074] S107, for several ideal capacitance values of the first variable capacitor Perform weighted calculation to obtain the ideal capacitance value of the first variable capacitor
[0075]
[0076] is the jth power level P in the first cycle 1j The corresponding The weight of m is the total number of power levels, m can be 7, that is, each cycle contains 7 power levels, The corresponding relationship between the occurrence time of each power level is as follows: Figure 5 shown.
[0077] S108, for several ideal capacitance values of the second variable capacitor Perform weighted calculation to obtain the ideal capacitance value of the second variable capacitor
[0078]
[0079] is the jth power level P in the first cycle 1j The corresponding The weight of The corresponding relationship between the occurrence time of each power level is as follows: Figure 6 shown.
[0080] When in the first cycle T rp1 The ideal capacitance value is calculated and ideal capacitance value Afterwards, steps S200, S300, and S400 are cyclically executed in any of the other cycles until all the cycles are completed.
[0081] For the ith (i is greater than 1) period T of the RF source rpi The specific process of step S200 is as follows: fix the capacitance value of the first variable capacitor of the RF matching device to the ideal capacitance value The capacitance value of the second variable capacitor is fixed to the ideal capacitance value That is, in the entire period T rpi The capacitance value of the first variable capacitor is maintained at The capacitance value of the second variable capacitor remains unchanged. constant.
[0082] After executing step S200, for the period T rpi Each power level P ij Both steps S300 and S400 are executed.
[0083] The specific process of step S300 is as follows: control the RF source to rpi The internal RF matching device sends a power level of P ij signal, calculate the load impedance value under the action of this signal Calculate the capacitance impedance value of the first variable capacitor and the second variable capacitor under the action of the signal The capacitance impedance value Add the load impedance value Get the total impedance value calculate and will And the reflected power formed under the action of the signal is used as the matching degree.
[0084] The specific process of step S400 is as follows: If the operation of fixing the two variable capacitors in step S200 does not make the RF matching device reach the target matching state, that is, is greater than zero, or the reflected power is greater than the threshold, then and reflected power to adjust the frequency f of the RF source until is equal to zero, or the reflected power is less than the threshold, that is, the frequency f is adjusted until the RF matcher presents the target matching state.
[0085] Among them, according to and reflected power, determine how high the frequency f of the RF source needs to be adjusted to make Equal to zero, or the reflected power is less than the threshold, which is the existing technology.
[0086] In the process of adjusting the frequency f, there may be multiple frequency values that can make the RF matcher present the target matching state, and finally the maximum frequency value is selected.
[0087] Repeat steps S300 and S400 until the RF source is rpi All the power levels included act on the RF matcher. By adjusting the frequency of the RF source, the RF matcher presents the target matching state at each power level, that is, to establish a corresponding relationship between power level and frequency. Since there is a corresponding relationship between the power level of the RF source and the working time of the RF source, then the following is established: Figure 7 The corresponding relationship between time and frequency of the RF source within a cycle is shown. Figure 7 The horizontal axis is time and the vertical axis is frequency.
[0088] In this embodiment, when the RF source sends a signal to the RF matcher at any power level in any cycle, the RF matcher can be in a target matching state at the power level in the cycle.
[0089] In summary, the present invention combines the characteristics of mechanical vacuum capacitors and frequency sweeping, utilizes the time of running simulation silicon wafers for a few pulses in the early stage of the plasma chamber (load) process, and adopts a specific matching strategy to adjust the positions of the two vacuum capacitors (that is, adjust the capacitance value of the capacitor), finds the best matching positions of C1 and C2 corresponding to the frequency F of the fixed RF source under different power level processes in the middle of a single pulse, and weights the best matching position for each power level to obtain the best matching position of C1 and C2 in the current plasma process RF matcher; and sets it as the initial matching position of the current plasma process and records it in non-volatile storage; then, frequency scanning is performed in a single pulse cycle to achieve RF matching at different power levels in a single pulse cycle. This matching method not only utilizes the advantages of mechanical vacuum capacitors supporting high power and a large range of loads that can be matched, but also effectively avoids the problem of slow adjustment of mechanical vacuum capacitors by frequency sweeping in a single pulse cycle, and can achieve matching under multiple power level pulse modes to the greatest extent possible.
