Description

Technical Field

[0002] Silicon wafers generally refer to thin slices cut from single crystal silicon. The diameters of silicon wafers are 6 inches, 8 inches, 12 inches and other specifications. They are mainly used to produce integrated circuits. Silicon wafers are only raw materials, and chips are finished products. Silicon wafers are an important material for making integrated circuits. Various semiconductor devices can be made by photolithography, ion implantation and other methods. Silicon wafer edge collapse is a defect that occurs during the silicon wafer processing process. Specifically, it is a slope-shaped processing defect formed at the edge of the silicon wafer. Silicon wafer edge collapse generally occurs in the cutting and grinding processes of single crystal silicon. Existing grinding processing equipment can improve the phenomenon of silicon wafer edge collapse by controlling process parameter settings and standardized operations, for example, avoiding excessive abrasive particles and controlling polishing pressure.

[0003] When the existing silicon wafer grinding device is in use, the silicon wafer to be ground is generally placed in the opening on the surface of the clamping gear to achieve the purpose of limiting the silicon wafer. However, after the silicon wafer grinding is completed, it is often necessary to manually remove the clamping gear first, then remove the ground silicon wafer, and then replace it with a new clamping gear, and then put a new silicon wafer to be ground. The process is complicated and the grinding efficiency is low. Moreover, when the existing grinding device is in use, it is often necessary to stop and wait when unloading the ground silicon wafer, which further reduces the grinding efficiency. In view of the above problems, a silicon wafer processing mechanism and method for improving the collapse of silicon wafers are proposed to solve the above problems. Summary of the invention

[0042] Working principle: When the silicon wafer needs to be ground, at this time, four polishing machine gears 6 are placed on the second grinding ring 240 on the left, and the silicon wafer waiting to be ground is stuck in the placement hole, and the fifth motor 232 is started to drive the third connecting shaft 233 to rotate, thereby driving the fourth spur gear 234 and the limit ring 241 to rotate with the third connecting shaft 233 as the axis, thereby driving the fifth spur gear 238 to roll along the surface of the fourth spur gear 234, thereby driving the gear ring 237 to rotate with the third connecting shaft 233 as the axis, thereby driving the third rotating shaft 233 to rotate. The ring 239 and the second grinding ring 240 rotate with the third connecting shaft 233 as the axis, thereby driving the polishing machine gear 6 to roll along the fourth spur gear 234. At the same time, the limiting ring 241 rotates to drive the first grinding ring 217 and the mounting ring 216 to rotate in the direction opposite to the rotation direction of the second grinding ring 240, and the polishing liquid in the annular groove 212 continuously enters between the first grinding ring 217 and the second grinding ring 240 through the hose 218, so that the first grinding ring 217 and the second grinding ring 240 grind both sides of the silicon wafer at the same time;

[0043] When the grinding process of the silicon wafer on the left side is completed and the silicon wafer waiting to be ground on the right side needs to be ground, the fourth cylinder 220 is started to extend or shorten it, driving the rack 221 to move in the vertical direction, thereby driving the first connecting shaft 223 to rotate, thereby driving the third spur gear 224 to rotate with the first connecting shaft 223 as the axis, and through the transmission effect of the synchronous belt and the synchronous wheel, driving the third screw rod 227 to rotate with the second connecting shaft 226 as the axis, thereby driving the third moving block to move toward the direction close to the cylindrical rod 210, thereby driving the arc The limiting plate 228 moves toward the direction close to the cylindrical rod 210 until it moves in contact with the cylindrical rod 210 and exerts a certain force on the cylindrical rod 210, so that the cylindrical rod 210 stops rotating and keeps the structure stable. The third cylinder 208 is started to shorten it, driving the first intermediate block 209 and the second intermediate block to move upward, thereby driving the mounting ring 216 and the first grinding ring 217 to move upward, so that the first grinding ring 217 no longer contacts the ground silicon wafer. The fourth motor 203 is then started to rotate, thereby driving the second screw 204 to rotate. Then, the second moving block 205 is driven toward the mounting seat 229 close to the right side, and then the first grinding ring 217 is driven to move to the top of the second grinding ring 240 on the right side. At this time, the polishing machine gear 6 and the silicon wafer to be ground are already placed on the second grinding ring 240 on the right side. The third cylinder 208 is started to extend it, and the mounting ring 216 and the first grinding ring 217 are driven to move downward until the first grinding ring 217 contacts the silicon wafer to be ground on the right side. The fifth motor 232 is repeatedly started to rotate it to grind the silicon wafer, thereby realizing continuous grinding of the silicon wafer.

[0044] When the silicon wafer on the right side is being ground, when the ground silicon wafer on the left side needs to be unloaded, the second motor 304 is started to rotate, driving the first screw 305 to rotate, thereby driving the first moving block 306, the connecting block and the moving plate 302 to move away from the second motor 304, thereby driving the first cylinder 501 and the clamping bar 513 to move toward the mounting seat 229 on the left side, until the clamping bar 513 moves to the top of the second grinding ring 240, and the first cylinder 501 is started to extend, driving the first fixed plate 506 to rotate. 3 and the fixing plate 504 move downward, thereby driving the first spur gear 507, the second spur gear 509 and the second fixing plate 511 to move downward, thereby driving the clamping bar 513 to move downward until it contacts the surface of the second grinding ring 240. At this time, the four polishing machine gears 6 on the top of the second grinding ring 240 are respectively located between the four groups of clamping bars 513, and the bottom of the suction cup 516 contacts the top of the polished silicon wafer and firmly absorbs the silicon wafer. The first motor 505 (which can be reversed) is started to rotate it to a set angle, thereby driving the first spur gear 5 07 rotates the first rotating shaft 506 as the axis to set the angle, thereby driving the second spur gear 509 to rotate with the second rotating shaft 508 as the axis, thereby driving the moving rod 512 to move toward the center of the second fixed plate 511, thereby driving the slider to move, thereby driving the four clamping bars 513 to move toward the center of the second fixed plate 511 to clamp the polisher gear 6, and then starting the first cylinder 501 again to shorten it, driving the polisher gear 6 and the polished silicon wafer to leave the surface of the second grinding ring 240, and then starting the second motor 304 to reverse The first cylinder 501 is turned to drive the first cylinder 501 and the clamping bar 513 to return to their original positions, and the first cylinder 501 is started again to extend, driving the clamping bar 513, the polishing machine gear 6 and the polished silicon wafer to move downward until the bottom end of the clamping bar 513 contacts the bottom of the groove below the clamping bar 513. At this time, the clamping hole on the polishing machine gear 6 is clamped on the clamping block 407, temporarily limiting the polishing machine gear 6. At this time, the suction cup 516 no longer absorbs the polished silicon wafer, and the clamping bar 513 no longer clamps the polishing machine gear 6, thereby realizing automatic unloading of the silicon wafer;

[0045] When the silicon wafer on the right side is being ground and the silicon wafer on the left side needs to be reloaded, the first cylinder 501 is started again to shorten it, driving the clamping bar 513 to leave the groove. At this time, the third motor 401 is started to rotate one circle, driving the cylindrical pin to rotate one circle with the third rotating shaft 402 as the axis, and then driving the groove wheel 403 to rotate a quarter of a circle, and then driving the first rotating disk 405 and the second rotating disk 406 to rotate a quarter of a circle with the fourth rotating shaft 404 as the axis, and at this time move to the groove on the second rotating disk 406 below the clamping bar 513. A new polishing machine gear 6 and a silicon wafer to be polished are clamped, and the first cylinder 501 is started again to extend it, driving the clamping bar 513 to move downward to the bottom of the groove. The suction cup 516 adsorbs the unpolished silicon wafer, and the clamping bar 513 clamps the polishing machine gear 6 again. The second motor 304 is started again to rotate it, and the polishing machine gear 6 and the silicon wafer to be polished are moved to the second grinding ring 240 on the left. At the same time, the staff removes the polished silicon wafer on the second rotating disk 406 and replaces it with the silicon wafer to be polished, thereby realizing automatic loading of silicon wafers.
