Abstract
Description
Technical Field

[0002] UV detectors are sensors that convert electromagnetic radiation signals into a signal form that is easy to receive and process. These detectors mainly rely on the photoelectric effect, which converts optical radiation into electrical signals. The photoelectric effect is mainly divided into two types: external photoelectric effect and internal photoelectric effect. In the external photoelectric effect, photons excite the photocathode to produce photoelectrons, which are then collected by the external electrode, and the obtained optical signal (such as current, etc.) represents the intensity of the received radiation.
[0003] Current UV detectors are widely used in semiconductor or integrated circuit testing. During operation, the detection lens is aimed at the device under test to observe the UV data on its surface. However, due to the small size of the device under test, the detection lens needs to be close to the device, which makes it easy for the detector to block the light on the surface of the device under test, thereby reducing the observation effect. In addition, if the lighting is set directly next to the detection equipment, shadows may be generated on the surface of the device under test, which will also affect the test results.

The lighting lamps 34 face the observation direction of the lens barrel 31, and the lighting lamps 34 are evenly surrounded on the outer side of the end of the lens barrel 31.
[0021] In the present invention, a placement plate 4 is provided for placing semiconductor or integrated circuit devices to be tested, and the device to be tested is placed within the field of view of the detection lens 3 by pointing the detection lens 3 toward the device to be tested. The ultraviolet detection module 1 analyzes and outputs the ultraviolet signal on the device to be tested through the detection lens 3; the present invention is provided with a plurality of lighting lamps 34 uniformly surrounding the detection lens 3 to uniformly illuminate the field of view of the detection lens 3, thereby reducing the shadow distribution on the surface of the device to be tested and making the imaging of the device to be tested on the placement plate 4 easier to observe. This device does not need to be provided with an external lighting device. Compared with an external lighting device, this device has clearer imaging and is easier to judge ultraviolet imaging.
[0022] In a further solution, Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the barrel shell 33 is provided with a plurality of recessed grooves 331 around the lens barrel 31 array, the illuminating lamp 34 is provided with a rotating shaft 341 perpendicular to the irradiation direction of the illuminating lamp 34, the rotating shaft 341 is rotatably arranged in the recessed groove 331, the rotating shaft 341 is also perpendicular to the radius of the barrel shell 33, a gear 342 is coaxially provided on the rotating shaft 341, and also includes a slip ring 35 sliding along the outer side of the barrel shell 33, a plurality of racks 351 are provided around the array on the inner side of the slip ring 35, the racks 351 are meshed with the gears 342, and the slip ring 35 is moved along the barrel shell 33, and the plurality of illuminating lamps 34 are switched between the scattering and focusing irradiation modes.
[0023] In this structure, a slip ring 35 is provided for uniformly controlling the illumination angle of the illumination lamp 34. The slip ring 35 is movable outside the cylindrical shell 33. Through manual control, the illumination lamp 34 is driven to rotate under the meshing of the rack 351 and the gear 342, so as to control the illumination angles of several illumination lamps 34 at the same time. During the sliding process of the slip ring 35, the illumination lamp 34 switches between a scattering state and a gathering state. Through the state change of the illumination lamp 34, the illumination intensity on the surface of the device under test is quickly changed, and the observation effect of the surface of the device under test is further improved: in the gathering illumination state, the position of the device under test that needs to be observed can be emphasized, and in the scattering state, the surface of the device under test is evenly illuminated and the visible range is large.

[0025] By providing the first crossbeam 22 and the second crossbeam 23, the detection lens 3 can be moved horizontally at will. When the device to be tested is fixed, the protruding observation position of the component to be tested can be changed. This structure improves the control freedom of the system and the experimental observation capability.

Through simple manipulation, the observation position of the device to be tested can be more easily directed toward the detection lens 3, making it easier to observe the surface of the device to be tested with an irregular shape, and assisting the illumination of the lamp tube to present clear positive observation data.
[0028] In a further solution, Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, a plurality of return springs 45 are provided on the bottom surface of the storage tray 43 , and the return springs 45 are symmetrically distributed relative to the support shaft 44 . A support steel ball 46 is provided at the bottom end of the return spring 45 . With the support of the return spring 45 , the storage tray 43 remains in a horizontal state.
[0029] This structure, after the storage tray 43 is rotated at a horizontal angle, can assist the storage tray 43 to return to its horizontal position through the support of a plurality of return springs 45. With the support of the supporting steel balls 46, the storage tray 43 can smoothly rotate on the storage board 4, thereby improving the storage capacity of the storage board 4 and facilitating observation and operation.
