Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of semiconductor scanning electron microscopes. Background Art

[0002] Scanning electron microscopes use a focused electron beam to scan and image the sample being tested. They have the advantages of large depth of field, high resolution, and a wide range of magnifications. They are used for ultra-high resolution imaging and key dimension measurement of semiconductor silicon wafer surfaces.

[0003] In a scanning electron microscope, when the motor drives the motion stage, the motor-driven reaction force acts on the vacuum chamber and the scanning electron microscope through the motion stage base, thereby generating vibration, which affects the measurement system of the motion stage and the performance of the electron microscope.

[0004] As semiconductor manufacturing processes improve, the resolution requirements for scanning electron microscopes (SEMs) are becoming increasingly higher, placing increasing demands on the accuracy of the motion stage. Therefore, vibration reduction treatment is essential for the motion stage. Otherwise, SEMs are highly susceptible to vibration, which can cause image drift, jitter, deformation, or distortion, seriously affecting SEM imaging and analysis results. To reduce vibrations in the internal and external environments of the SEM and achieve higher image quality, the present invention proposes a motion stage vibration reduction system and a SEM. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The present invention aims to provide a motion stage vibration reduction system and a scanning electron microscope (SEM) to address the problems of the prior art, which typically employs passive or active vibration dampers to reduce vibrations within and outside the microscope. The first method primarily utilizes the stiffness and damping of the passive damper to suppress vibrations, but suffers from shortcomings such as slow response speed, long stabilization time, and inability to suppress low-frequency vibrations. The second method, based on the passive damper, incorporates modern control algorithms, resulting in faster response speed, shorter stabilization time, and the ability to suppress low-frequency vibrations. However, for applications with large motion loads, rapid vibration suppression using active dampers alone is often difficult to achieve.

[0006] The present invention provides a motion table vibration reduction system, comprising a vacuum cavity, a buffer module and a motion control unit, wherein the buffer module is located inside the vacuum cavity.

[0007] A motion table, a scanning electron microscope and a measurement system are also provided inside the vacuum chamber. The buffer module is installed on the motion table. The scanning electron microscope and the measurement system are installed on the side wall of the vacuum chamber. A support seat is provided on the side of the buffer module. The support seat passes through the vacuum chamber and is connected to the foundation. An acceleration sensor and an active vibration absorber are installed on the outside of the vacuum chamber. The active vibration absorber is located between the vacuum chamber and the foundation.

[0008] The buffer module is used to store and release energy, thereby converting the high frequency under the impact of the driving reaction force of the motion platform into low frequency components, and the buffer module can offset part of the driving reaction force of the motion platform and reduce the vibration amplitude.

[0009] A motion control unit is added to the buffer module. The motion control unit is based on a closed-loop control strategy of acceleration feedforward. The vibration signal of the vacuum cavity is measured by the acceleration sensor, and the active vibration absorber performs vibration reduction feedforward control according to the measurement signal of the acceleration sensor. At the same time, the motion control unit can also adjust the driving force output by the motion table drive unit through the vacuum cavity vibration acceleration signal fed back by the acceleration sensor to compensate for and eliminate the low-frequency vibration remaining on the vacuum cavity.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a bellows is provided on the outer side of the support seat between the vacuum cavity and the foundation, and the bellows is provided to improve the sealing effect.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the buffer module includes a source connection seat, a source adjustment plate, a first vibration isolation layer, a first connection block, a fixing seat, a damper, an elastic element, a damping adapter shaft, a second connection block, a second vibration isolation layer, a support adjustment plate, and a support adapter seat;

[0012] The source connection seat is connected to the motion platform, and the source connection seat, source adjustment plate, first vibration isolation layer, first connection block, damper, second connection block, second vibration isolation layer, support adjustment plate, and support adapter seat are connected in sequence, wherein the two ends of the damper are connected to the first connection block and the second connection block through the damping adapter shaft, the elastic element is installed between the first connection block and the second connection block through the fixing seat, and the support adapter seat is connected to the support seat.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the source adjustment plate is used to adjust the position of the first vibration isolation layer relative to the source connection seat, and the support adjustment plate is used to adjust the position of the second vibration isolation layer relative to the support adapter seat. The plurality of dampers are centrally symmetrically distributed about the elastic element, viewed along the axis of the elastic element. The first and second vibration isolation layers are both laminated rubber, and the elastic element is a compression spring. When the motion platform moves, the driving reaction force acting on the bottom of the motion platform is introduced into the vacuum chamber, causing vibration of the vacuum chamber, thereby driving the motion platform and the measurement system to vibrate, affecting the motion accuracy and stability of the motion platform. After the buffer module and the support seat are installed between the motion platform bottom and the foundation, the first vibration isolation layer in the first connection assembly of the buffer module and the second vibration isolation layer in the second connection assembly first isolate and decouple the vibration caused by the driving reaction force of the motion platform base. The compressed elastic element then stores and releases energy, converting the high frequency components of the driving reaction force into low frequency components. The energy dissipation characteristics of the damper then offset part of the driving reaction force of the motion platform, thereby reducing the vibration amplitude of the vacuum chamber, the motion platform, and the measurement system, thereby improving the motion accuracy and stability of the motion platform. After many tests, the optimal natural frequency and damping rate parameters of the motion platform buffer module are obtained as follows: the natural frequency of the motion platform buffer module = the natural frequency of the elastic element / 3, and the damping rate is 0.2. At this time, the motion platform buffer module has the highest efficiency in converting and consuming the driving reaction force.

[0014] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the motion control unit adjusts and compensates for the deviation between the motion trajectory planning of the motion stage and the real-time motion signal of the motion stage by driving a closed-loop control loop. The control method of the motion control unit includes the following steps:

[0015] S1. Provide a closed-loop drive control circuit for the motion platform, which collects acceleration signals and position signals of the motion trajectory planning of the motion platform in real time;

[0016] S2, the driving closed-loop control circuit collects the actual acceleration signal and actual position signal of the motion platform in real time;

[0017] S3. Analyze and compare the motion trajectory planning acceleration signal and position signal of the motion platform with the actual acceleration signal and position signal through the drive closed-loop control circuit, and output a control signal to the motion platform drive unit accordingly to adjust the output driving force, thereby compensating for the acceleration deviation and position deviation of the motion platform and improving the motion accuracy and stability of the motion platform.

[0018] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the acceleration sensor is used to measure the vibration acceleration signal of the vacuum cavity and feed it back to the motion control unit, so that the motion control unit can regulate the driving force output by the motion stage driving unit according to the vibration acceleration signal of the vacuum cavity;

[0019] The motion control unit is operated by adopting a drive closed-loop control strategy of vibration acceleration feedforward based on the control method of the motion control unit by using the acceleration sensor, and the vibration acceleration feedforward of the vacuum cavity is added to the drive closed-loop control loop to compensate for the actual acceleration deviation of the motion platform caused by the driving reaction force vibration, including the following steps:

[0020] S1, the driving closed-loop control loop collects the vibration acceleration signal of the vacuum cavity in real time through the acceleration sensor, and feeds it forward to the driving closed-loop control loop through the amplifier;

[0021] S2. The driving closed-loop control circuit modifies the control signal accordingly, and further modifies the driving force to compensate for the actual acceleration signal of the motion stage, thereby reducing the influence of the vibration of the vacuum cavity on the motion stage.

[0022] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, in summary, the present invention further proposes an electron microscope, which includes an electron microscope using any of the motion stage vibration reduction systems described above.

[0023] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0024] The present invention introduces part of the driving force of the motion platform into the ground through the motion platform buffer module, reducing the vibration caused by the driving force of the motion platform from the vibration source. At the same time, the motion control unit is designed to cooperate with active vibration reduction and feedforward control to achieve effective vibration isolation, so as to quickly suppress the vibration caused by large-load movement and improve the accuracy and stability of the motion platform.

[0040] Further, the corrugated pipe 10 is sleeved between the vacuum cavity 4 and the foundation 1 outside the support seat 9, and the corrugated pipe 10 is arranged to improve the sealing effect.

[0041] Embodiment two

[0042] Please refer to Figure 2 The application provides a technical scheme: the buffer module 8 comprises a seismic source connecting seat 801, a seismic source adjusting plate 802, a first vibration isolation layer 803, a first connecting block 804, a fixed seat 805, a damper 806, an elastic element 807, a damping adapter shaft 808, a second connecting block 809, a second vibration isolation layer 810, a support adjusting plate 811 and a support adapter seat 812.

[0043] Further, the seismic source connecting seat 801 is connected with the moving table 5, the seismic source connecting seat 801, the seismic source adjusting plate 802, the first vibration isolation layer 803, the first connecting block 804, the damper 806, the second connecting block 809, the second vibration isolation layer 810, the support adjusting plate 811 and the support adapter seat 812 are sequentially connected, wherein the damper 806 is connected with the first connecting block 804 and the second connecting block 809 through the damping adapter shaft 808 at both ends, the elastic element 807 is installed between the first connecting block 804 and the second connecting block 809 through the fixed seat 805, and the support adapter seat 812 is connected with the support seat 9.

[0044] Furthermore, the source adjustment plate 802 is used to adjust the position of the first isolation layer 803 relative to the source connection base 801, and the support adjustment plate 811 is used to adjust the position of the second isolation layer 810 relative to the support adapter 812. Across the axis of the elastic element 807, the multiple dampers 806 are centrally symmetrically distributed about the elastic element 807. Both the first and second isolation layers 803 and 810 are laminated rubber, and the elastic element 807 is a compression spring. When the motion platform 5 moves, the driving reaction force acting on the bottom of the motion platform 5 is introduced into the vacuum chamber 4, causing it to vibrate, which in turn causes the motion platform 5 and the measurement system 7 to vibrate, affecting the motion accuracy and stability of the motion platform 5.

[0045] Example 3

[0046] See also Figure 3 The present invention provides a technical solution: a motion control unit adjusts and compensates for the deviation between the motion trajectory planning of the motion stage 5 and the real-time motion signal of the motion stage 5 by driving a closed-loop control loop. The control method of the motion control unit includes the following steps:

[0047] S1, providing a closed-loop control circuit for the motion platform 5, which collects acceleration signals and position signals of the motion trajectory planning of the motion platform 5 in real time;

[0048] S2, driving the closed-loop control circuit to collect the actual acceleration signal and actual position signal of the motion stage 5 in real time;

[0049] S3. Analyze and compare the motion trajectory planning acceleration signal and position signal of the motion platform 5 with the actual acceleration signal and position signal through the driving closed-loop control loop, and output a control signal to the driving unit of the motion platform 5 accordingly to adjust the output driving force, thereby compensating for the acceleration deviation and position deviation of the motion platform 5 and improving the motion accuracy and stability of the motion platform 5.

[0050] Example 4

[0051] See also Figure 3 The present invention provides a technical solution: Due to the action of the driving reaction force, the vacuum chamber 4 and the motion platform 5 vibrate, which causes a lot of vibration interference to the actual acceleration signal and actual position signal of the motion platform 5, affecting the accuracy of the feedback actual acceleration signal and actual position signal. In particular, the feedback acceleration signal has relatively high precision requirements. If the actual acceleration signal fed back is inaccurate, the acceleration deviation of the motion platform 5 obtained by subsequent control will be large. Therefore, in order to further improve the motion accuracy and stability of the motion platform 5, it is necessary to compensate the vibration acceleration signal of the vacuum chamber 4 for the feedback actual acceleration signal.

[0052] The acceleration sensor 3 is used to measure the vibration acceleration signal of the vacuum chamber 4 and feed it back to the motion control unit so that the motion control unit can adjust the driving force output by the driving unit of the motion platform 5 according to the vibration acceleration signal of the vacuum chamber 4 .

[0053] Furthermore, the motion control unit is operated by adopting a drive closed-loop control strategy of vibration acceleration feedforward based on the control method of the motion control unit through the acceleration sensor 3. The vibration acceleration feedforward of the vacuum chamber 4 is added to the drive closed-loop control loop to compensate for the actual acceleration deviation of the motion platform 5 caused by the driving reaction force vibration, including the following steps:

[0054] S1, the driving closed-loop control loop collects the vibration acceleration signal of the vacuum cavity 4 in real time through the acceleration sensor 3, and feeds it forward to the driving closed-loop control loop through the amplifier;

[0055] S2 , the driving closed-loop control circuit modifies the control signal accordingly, and further modifies the driving force to compensate for the actual acceleration signal of the motion stage 5 , thereby reducing the influence of the vibration of the vacuum chamber 4 on the motion stage 5 .

[0056] In summary, the present invention further provides an electron microscope, which includes an electron microscope on which the motion stage vibration reduction system described in any one of embodiments one to four is applied.

[0057] The motion platform buffer module 8 of the present invention is simulated by Matlab's simulink, and the simulation performance of the motion platform buffer module 8 is obtained as follows: Figure 4 and 5 As shown, Figure 4 The vibration acceleration curve comparison diagram of the vacuum chamber 4 is shown in FIG. Figure 4 It can be seen that after adding the motion platform buffer module 8, the high-frequency components of the vibration acceleration signal introduced by the driving reaction force acting on the vacuum cavity 4 are effectively converted into low-frequency residual vibrations, and the vibration amplitude of the vacuum cavity 4 is greatly reduced; Figure 5 The control error curve comparison diagram of motion stage 5 is shown in Figure 2.Figure 5 As can be clearly seen, the high-frequency impact of the vacuum cavity 4 is effectively eliminated after the motion table buffer module 8 is added, the control error can quickly converge, the motion performance of the motion table 5 is effectively improved, and thus the vibration reduction performance and dynamic performance of the whole machine are improved.

[0058] It is worth noting that the whole device is controlled by a total control button, and since the control button is matched with common devices, it belongs to existing mature technology, and the electrical connection relationship and specific circuit structure are not described herein.
