DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0018] The embodiments of the present application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0019] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other. The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with the embodiments.

[0020] The Bernoulli chuck is a chuck structure that uses positive dry and clean nitrogen to generate high-speed airflow through tiny airways, thereby generating negative pressure for adsorption. This structure ensures that the wafer is adsorbed while allowing the chemical liquid flowing to the back of the wafer during the process to be taken away by the positive dry and clean nitrogen, thereby ensuring that the back of the wafer is not corroded by the chemical liquid.

[0021] Compared with commonly used dry compressed air (CDA), dry clean nitrogen has the characteristics of high purity and lower possibility of damaging wafers.

[0022] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a wafer adsorption device based on a Bernoulli chuck comprises: Bernoulli chuck assembly 1, lifting assembly 2, chuck rotating assembly 3 and air pipe interface 4.

[0023] The air pipe interface 4, the chuck rotating assembly 3 and the Bernoulli chuck assembly 1 are connected in sequence along the flow direction of the dry and clean nitrogen.

[0024] When processing a wafer, the wafer is placed on the Bernoulli chuck assembly 1, and dry clean nitrogen is transmitted to the chuck rotating assembly 3 through the air pipe interface 4. The chuck rotating assembly 3 is used to transmit the dry clean nitrogen to the Bernoulli chuck assembly 1 and drive the Bernoulli chuck assembly 1 to rotate along the central axis.

[0025] The lifting assembly 2 is disposed between the Bernoulli chuck assembly 1 and the chuck rotating assembly 3 . When processing the wafer, the lifting assembly 2 abuts against the back side of the wafer and drives the wafer to move up and down relative to the Bernoulli chuck assembly 1 .

[0026] like Figures 3 to 6 As shown, the Bernoulli chuck assembly 1 includes a Bernoulli chuck cover 101 and a Bernoulli chuck base 102 .

[0027] The Bernoulli chuck cover 101 is disposed on the Bernoulli chuck base 102, and the wafer is placed on the Bernoulli chuck cover 101. Figure 4 As shown, a Bernoulli chuck cover air flow hole 1011 is provided on the outer wall of the Bernoulli chuck cover 101 , and an annular air passage is formed between the Bernoulli chuck cover 101 and the Bernoulli chuck base 102 , that is, a circle of labyrinth air passage exists between the Bernoulli chuck cover 101 and the Bernoulli chuck base 102 .

[0028] After the dry clean nitrogen is transmitted to the Bernoulli chuck cover 101, it passes through the air passage (such as Figure 5 As shown, the air flows into the annular air channel through a plurality of radial air channels extending from the center of the circle to the outer circumference and the Bernoulli chuck cover air flow hole 1011, and flows out from the outer circumference of the Bernoulli chuck assembly 1 along the annular air channel ( Figure 6 direction of airflow).

[0029] The dry clean nitrogen gas provides airflow to the surface of the Bernoulli chuck base 102 through the air passage, and the Bernoulli principle is used to adsorb the wafer on the surface of the Bernoulli chuck cover 101. Specifically, the dry clean nitrogen gas at the bottom passes upward through the Bernoulli chuck base 102 to the Bernoulli chuck cover 101, and then diffuses to the periphery of the Bernoulli chuck assembly 1 through the air passage, and then provides airflow to the outside through the Bernoulli chuck cover airflow holes 1011 around the Bernoulli chuck cover 101.

[0030] like Figure 6 As shown, the Bernoulli chuck base 102 is connected to the Bernoulli chuck cover 101. After the airflow passes through the Bernoulli chuck cover airflow hole 1011 to the outside, it provides a positive airflow pressure outward along the base slope of the Bernoulli chuck base 102. Through the application of the Bernoulli principle in fluid dynamics, when the fluid flow rate increases, it is often accompanied by a decrease in pressure. When the wafer is placed on the Bernoulli chuck cover 101 of the Bernoulli chuck assembly 1, the airflow can still adsorb the wafer while providing outward airflow to complete the process.

[0031] like Figure 7As shown, the annular air passage includes a first cavity 1012, a second cavity 1013 and a third cavity 1014 which are interconnected. The first cavity 1012 is arranged at the center of the Bernoulli chuck cover 101, and is formed by the center depression of the Bernoulli chuck cover 101 and the top surface of the Bernoulli chuck base 102. A plurality of second cavities 1013 are arranged along the center to radial direction of the Bernoulli chuck cover 101, and are formed by the circumferential depression of the Bernoulli chuck cover 101 and the top surface of the Bernoulli chuck base 102. The third cavity 1014 is arranged on the outside of the Bernoulli chuck cover 101, and is formed by the outer side wall of the Bernoulli chuck cover 101 and the inner side wall of the Bernoulli chuck base 102.

[0032] The dry and clean nitrogen gas that enters the Bernoulli chuck assembly 1 at high speed along the axial direction first enters the first cavity 1012, and the high-speed impact force of the dry and clean nitrogen gas entering the first cavity 1012 is eliminated. After the impact force is eliminated, the dry and clean nitrogen gas flows along the square airway ( Figure 5 The Bernoulli chuck cover air flow hole 1011 is set on the top surface of the second cavity 1013, and part of the dry and clean nitrogen is blown toward the back side of the wafer at a high speed through the air channel of the Bernoulli chuck cover air flow hole 1011, and most of the remaining dry and clean nitrogen enters the third cavity 1014 along the Bernoulli chuck cover air flow hole 1011.

[0033] Preferably, the Bernoulli chuck cover air flow holes 1011 are 6 circular holes with a diameter of 0.5 mm and an inclination angle of 30°, and are arranged at equal intervals along the outer circumference of the Bernoulli chuck cover 101 .

[0034] The outer inclined surface of the Bernoulli chuck cover 101 cooperates with the inner inclined surface of the Bernoulli chuck base 102 to form a ring-shaped airway with a certain inclination angle at the edge of the upper surface of the third cavity 1014. All the remaining dry and clean nitrogen is blown toward the back of the wafer at high speed along the inclined gap.

[0035] Preferably, the annular airway is a gap with a width of 0.2 mm and an inclination angle of 30°.

[0036] According to the Bernoulli principle, the high-speed airflow on the back side of the wafer makes the pressure on the back side of the wafer smaller than that on the front side of the wafer, so the wafer is adsorbed on the surface of the Bernoulli chuck assembly 1 .

[0037] After the Bernoulli chuck cover 101 and the Bernoulli chuck base 102 are installed together, the surface of the Bernoulli chuck cover 101 is higher than the surface of the Bernoulli chuck base 102, and the central area of ​​the back of the wafer contacts the surface of the Bernoulli chuck cover 101. When the chuck rotating assembly 3 rotates, the torque required for rotation is provided to the wafer.

[0038] Preferably, the height of the surface of the Bernoulli chuck cover 101 above the surface of the Bernoulli chuck base 102 is 0.45 mm to 0.55 mm.

[0039] When the existing method of setting baffles at the edge of the wafer for clamping is used, when the wafer is sprayed with liquid medicine, liquid easily accumulates in the contact area between the baffles and the wafer, causing the liquid medicine to contact the back of the wafer along the baffles, resulting in corrosion of the edge of the back of the wafer and wafer defects. The Bernoulli chuck assembly 1 of the embodiment of the present invention adopts a wafer center area contact method, which can make the high-speed dry and clean nitrogen gas flow pass through the edge of the wafer without any obstruction. When the liquid medicine flows from the front of the wafer to the back, the high-speed dry and clean nitrogen gas flow can completely blow away the liquid medicine, so that the back of the wafer does not contact any corrosive liquid medicine, and thus can more reliably protect the back of the wafer from corrosion. Figure 8 As shown, the lifting assembly 2 includes a pin column 201, a pin column base plate 202, a lifting telescopic sleeve 203, a cylinder 204, a linear bearing 205 and a lifting guide shaft. The lifting guide shaft is arranged in the linear bearing 205, and the lifting guide shaft drives the pin column base plate 202 to move up and down.

[0040] One end of the Pin column 201 passes through the columnar through hole of the Bernoulli chuck base 102 and abuts against the back of the wafer, and the other end of the Pin column 201 is fixed to the Pin column base plate 202. One end of the cylinder 204 is fixed to the chuck rotating assembly 3, and the other end of the cylinder 204 is fixed to the Pin column base plate 202. One end of the linear bearing 205 is fixed to the chuck rotating assembly 3, and the other end of the linear bearing 205 is fixed to the Pin column base plate 202. The lifting telescopic sleeve 203 is sleeved on the outer surface of the cylinder 204.

[0041] Pin column 201 is a mechanical structure used to support wafers during semiconductor manufacturing.

[0042] The pin column 201 in the lifting assembly 2 passes through the columnar through hole of the Bernoulli chuck base 102 and can abut against the back of the wafer. The rise or fall of the pin column 201 drives the wafer to rise or fall relative to the surface of the Bernoulli chuck assembly 1. When the wafer processing is completed, the lifting assembly 2 drives the pin column 201 to rise relative to the Bernoulli chuck assembly 1 and lift the wafer to facilitate wafer transmission.

[0043] like Fig. 9 and Fig.10 As shown, a telescopic section 2031 is provided at one end of the lifting telescopic sleeve 203. The telescopic section 2031 is a telescopic bellows structure. The action of the cylinder drives the lifting telescopic sleeve 203 to complete the lifting action. While ensuring the movement process, the cylinder 204 and other components are not corroded by the liquid medicine.

[0044] like Fig.11As shown, the chuck rotating assembly 3 includes a fixed pressure ring 301 , a hollow shaft rotating motor 302 and a bottom sealing assembly 303 .

[0045] One end of the fixed pressure ring 301 is fixedly connected to the lifting assembly 2, and the other end of the fixed pressure ring 301 is connected to the hollow shaft rotating motor 302. The bottom sealing assembly 303 is fixed to the rear cover of the hollow shaft rotating motor 302, and the hollow shaft rotating motor 302 is connected to the trachea interface 4 through the bottom sealing assembly 303.

[0046] The hollow shaft rotating motor 302 includes a rotating hollow shaft, which is inserted into the Bernoulli chuck cover 101 of the Bernoulli chuck assembly 1 and drives the Bernoulli chuck cover 101 to rotate.

[0047] like Fig.12 and Fig.13 As shown, the bottom sealing assembly 303 includes a second dynamic sealing ring 3031 and a motor cover plate 3032. The motor cover plate 3032 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the trachea interface 4, and the connection between the trachea interface 4 and the motor cover plate 3032 is sealed by the second dynamic sealing ring 3031. The bottom sealing assembly 303 is used to ensure the sealing performance of the chuck rotating assembly 3.

[0048] The Bernoulli chuck base 102 and the rotating hollow shaft are sealed by a first dynamic seal ring. Two first dynamic seal rings are used at the connection between the Bernoulli chuck base 102 and the chuck rotating assembly 3 to ensure the airtightness of the assembly.

[0049] When in use, the Pin column 201 is installed on the Pin column base plate 202, and the cylinder 204 is installed in the lifting telescopic sleeve 203. By working together with the linear bearing 205 and the lifting guide shaft, the Pin column 201 passes through the Bernoulli chuck assembly 1 to lift or put down the wafer, thereby completing the corresponding process. Dry and clean nitrogen provides airflow to the surface of the Bernoulli chuck assembly 1 through the airway, and the Bernoulli principle is used to adsorb the wafer on the chuck surface. At the same time, the positive airflow takes away the chemical solution on the back of the wafer, ensuring that the process is operating normally while ensuring that the back of the wafer is not corroded by the chemical solution.

[0050] Beneficial effects of the embodiments of the present invention: The wafer adsorption device of the embodiment of the present invention works together with the linear bearing and the lifting guide shaft to make the Pin column pass through the Bernoulli chuck assembly to lift or put down the wafer, so as to facilitate the subsequent process after the robot takes the wafer; the wafer adsorption device of the embodiment of the present invention can make the wafer completely adsorbed on the chuck surface for high-speed rotation, and can prevent the back of the wafer from being corroded by the chemical solution when performing processes such as etching; the telescopic part of the lifting telescopic sleeve of the lifting assembly is a bellows structure, and the movement of the cylinder drives the telescopic sleeve to complete the lifting movement, while ensuring the movement process, the cylinder and other components are not corroded by the chemical solution.

[0051] The above is only a specific embodiment of the present invention, and cannot be used to limit the scope of the invention. Therefore, the replacement of equivalent components, or equivalent changes and modifications made according to the scope of protection of the patent of the present invention, should still fall within the scope of this patent. In addition, the technical features of the present invention can be freely combined with each other, with each other, and with each other.
