Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of semiconductor packaging, and particularly relates to a high-precision wafer pre-alignment mechanism. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the highly precise and complex industrial field of semiconductor chip manufacturing, wafer pre-alignment, as a key link connecting front-end wafer preparation and back-end packaging testing, is self-evident in importance. With the development of semiconductor packaging technology, wafer size gradually moves towards the direction of super large size. 6-inch to 12-inch wafers are the mainstream size in current market applications. The first process of the wafer bonding process of the large-size wafer temporary bonding equipment is the glue coating process, and the uniformity of the glue film thickness after coating has a great influence on the yield of the subsequent bonded products. The offset of the wafer center relative to the center of the glue coating disc during glue coating will cause vibration of the high-speed rotating glue coating disc, which will make the uniformity (TTV value) of the glue film after coating worse. In practical applications, the offset precision of the wafer center and the center of the glue coating disc is determined by the pre-alignment mechanism. Therefore, realizing fast and precise wafer pre-alignment is the guarantee for improving the product yield of temporary bonding.

[0003] However, the wafer pre-alignment technology widely used in the current market is a traditional scheme based on taper sliding positioning, which has gradually exposed many drawbacks and is difficult to meet the needs of advanced manufacturing processes. For example, long-time physical contact and sliding will cause wear on the taper and wafer surface, which not only reduces the positioning accuracy, but also may introduce contaminants, affecting the wafer quality. Taper sliding positioning is prone to fluctuations and deviations during wafer transmission, causing unstable wafer position and affecting subsequent processing quality.
