Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of semiconductor technology, and in particular to a wafer carrier for dry etching of LED chips. Background Art

[0002] Dry etching is a technology that uses plasma to etch thin films. When the gas exists in the form of plasma, it has two characteristics: on the one hand, the chemical activity of these gases in the plasma is much stronger than that in normal conditions. According to the different materials to be etched, choosing the right gas can react with the material faster to achieve the purpose of etching and removal; on the other hand, the electric field can be used to guide and accelerate the plasma so that it has a certain amount of energy. When it bombards the surface of the etched object, it will knock out the atoms of the etched material, thereby achieving the purpose of etching by physical energy transfer. Therefore, dry etching is the result of a balance between the physical and chemical processes on the surface of the wafer.

[0003] During the dry etching process, the surface temperature is high, and because photoresist is usually used as a mask for etching, photoresist is easily carbonized and deformed under high temperature conditions, resulting in failure of chip pattern conversion during the manufacturing process, and photoresist is not easy to remove after carbonization. Therefore, the wafer carrier fixture used in dry etching usually needs to consider thermal conductivity and etching resistance. At the same time, the existing wafer carrier fixture has no structure, so it is very easy to cause damage to the equipment under the action of external force, resulting in irreversible consequences.

[0004] To this end, a wafer carrier fixture for dry etching of LED chips is needed. The device can store the carrier into the inside of the device to avoid direct exposure of the carrier and effectively protect the carrier. The device can lift the carrier out of the device when etching the wafer, and the operation is simple and practical. The device can evenly and effectively cool the carrier, thereby improving the utilization rate of the equipment and ensuring the smooth dry etching of the LED chip. Summary of the invention

The pinion gear II 313 is fixedly mounted on the side of the push rod 303, and the pinion gear II 313 is intermittently meshed with the gear on the round rod II 306. Specifically, when the pinion gear II 313 moves to mesh with the gear on the round rod II 306, the pinion gear II 313 drives the round rod II 306 to rotate, and the round rod II 306 drives the cams 307 at both ends thereof to rotate; the bracket 315 is fixedly mounted on the lower end surface of the carrier plate 101, and the bracket 315 is provided with two inner and outer slots.

[0043] like Fig. 9As shown, the buffer mechanism 4 is fixedly mounted on the lower end surface of the wafer carrier 101 through a rod, and two hollow tubes are fixedly mounted on both sides of the buffer mechanism 4. The buffer mechanism 4 provides helium to the two cooling mechanisms 5 at the same time, and buffers the air pressure between the main ventilation rack 503 and the four sub-ventilation racks 504 to avoid damage to the wafer due to excessive input air pressure;

[0044] like Fig.10 , Fig.11 As shown, the cooling mechanism 5 includes: an L-shaped support plate 501, a cooling rack 502, a main ventilation rack 503 and a sub-ventilation rack 504; the L-shaped support plate 501 is fixedly installed on the lower end surface of the wafer carrier 101; there are two cooling racks 502, and the two cooling racks 502 are spliced ​​into a square rack; the main ventilation rack 503 is fixedly installed on the L-shaped support plate 501, the main ventilation rack 503 has a cavity inside, the main ventilation rack 503 is annular, and the upper end of the main ventilation rack 503 is provided with four There are four sub-ventilation racks 504, the interior of the four sub-ventilation racks 504 is a cavity, the sub-ventilation racks 504 are circular, the lower air inlets of the four sub-ventilation racks 504 are respectively fixedly connected to the four air outlets on the main air rack 503, and the upper end of the sub-ventilation rack 504 is provided with two centrally symmetrical air outlets, and the air outlets at the upper ends of the sub-ventilation racks 504 are respectively connected to the corresponding air inlets at the lower ends of the cooling hollow rods on the two groups of cooling racks 502; Specifically, helium is introduced into the buffer mechanism 4, and the buffer mechanism 4 evenly introduces helium into the two main ventilation racks 503 through the hollow tubes on both sides.

[0047] like Figure 6-Figure 8As shown, a spring is installed on the side of the Z-shaped frame II 312, and both ends of the spring are connected to the side panels of the push rod 303.

[0048] like Fig.10 As shown, four cooling hollow rods are fixedly installed on the cooling rack 502, an air inlet is provided at the center of the lower end of the cooling hollow rod, and a plurality of small holes are provided at the upper end of the cooling hollow rod.

[0051] like Figure 5 As shown, a spring is installed at the upper end of the top block 204 , and the other end of the spring is connected to the lower end surface of the corresponding Z-shaped plate 308 .

[0052] Working principle of this embodiment:

[0053] When the carrier 201 is lifted out of the device, the card plate 314 is first rotated manually to disengage the card plate 314 from the card slot on the outside of the card frame 315. Then, the card plate 314 is pushed inward manually, and the card plate 314 drives the push rod 303 to move inward. At this time, the rack on the inside of the push rod 303 is meshed with the gear I 304, and the push rod 303 drives the gear I 304 to rotate clockwise, and the gear I 304 drives the round rod I 305 to rotate clockwise, and the round rod I 305 drives the two racks I 205 to move outward at the same time, and the two racks I 205 drive the two second cover plates 203 outward at the same time. When the push rod 303 moves inward, the Z-shaped frame II 312 on both sides of the push rod 303 drives one end of the corresponding lever 310 to move inward. At this time, the other end of the lever 310 drives the corresponding Z-shaped frame I 311 to move outward. The Z-shaped frame I 311 drives the first cover plate 202 to move outward. At this time, the first cover plate 202 and the second cover plate 203 at the upper end of the carrier 201 are opened at the same time. When the rack at the inner end of the push rod 303 moves inward to disengage from the gear I 304, the first cover plate 202 and the second cover plate 203 are just opened. The upper end of the corresponding carrier 201 is fully opened, and at this time, the small gear II 313 is just meshed with the gear on the round rod II 306, and the card plate 314 is pushed inwards manually. When the card plate 314 drives the push rod 303 to move inwards, since the first cover plate 202 has been fully opened, it can no longer move outwards. At this time, the push rod 303 moves inwards again, and the spring on the side of the Z-shaped frame II 312 is compressed. In this way, the push rod 303 can still move inwards for a distance. At this time, the push rod 303 drives the small gear II 313 to move, and the small gear II 313 drives the round rod 206. The gear on the rod II 306 rotates clockwise, thereby driving the round rod II 306 to rotate clockwise, and the round rod II 306 drives the two cams 307 to rotate clockwise, and the two cams 307 push the two top blocks 204 to move upward at the same time, and the two top blocks 204 respectively drive the two carriers 201 to move upward, so that the two carriers 201 are moved out of the equipment. At this time, the card plate 314 is located at the inner card slot of the card rack 315, and then the card plate 314 is manually rotated to make the card plate 314 stuck in the inner card slot of the card rack 315, so that it is convenient to etch the wafer on the carrier 201;When the wafer etching is completed, the carrier 201 is moved back to the equipment, and the card plate 314 is manually rotated to disengage the card plate 314 from the inner card slot of the card frame 315, and then the card plate 314 is manually pulled outward, and the card plate 314 drives the push rod 303 to move outward. At this time, the small gear II 313 first drives the gear on the round rod II 306 to rotate counterclockwise to return to its position, and then drives the round rod II 306 to rotate counterclockwise to return to its position, and the round rod II 306 drives the two cams 307 to rotate counterclockwise to return to their positions, and the two cams 307 no longer push The top block 204 moves downward, driving the corresponding carrier 201 to move downward, so that the carrier 201 returns to its original position. When the carrier 201 is completely returned to its original position, the pinion II 313 is no longer meshed with the gear on the round rod II 306. When the push rod 303 still moves outward, the rack at the inner end of the push rod 303 meshes with the gear I 304. At this time, the rack at the inner end of the push rod 303 drives the gear I 304 to rotate counterclockwise, and the gear I 304 drives the round rod I 305 to rotate counterclockwise, and the round rod I 305 drives the gear When the push rod 303 moves outward, the spring on the side of the Z-shaped frame II 312 releases the pressure, and the Z-shaped frame II 312 does not move. When the carrier 201 is completely returned to its original position, the spring on the side of the Z-shaped frame II 312 returns to its initial state and still pulls the push rod 303 outward, the pinion II 313 drives the lever 310 and its corresponding end to move outward, and the other end of the lever 310 drives the corresponding end to move outward. The corresponding Z-shaped frame I 311 moves inward, and the Z-shaped frame I 311 drives the first cover plate 202 to move inward, closing the upper end of the carrier 201. When the first cover plate 202 is completely moved back to its position, the card plate 314 moves to the outer end slot of the card frame 315 again, and then the card plate 314 is manually rotated to make the card plate 314 snap into the outer end slot of the card frame 315 again. At this time, the first cover plate 202 and the second cover plate 203 completely close the upper end of the carrier 201, effectively protecting the carrier 201.

[0054] When the carrier 201 is cooled, helium is introduced into the buffer mechanism 4. The buffer mechanism 4 evenly introduces helium into the two main ventilation racks 503 through the hollow tubes on both sides. The two main ventilation racks 503 introduce helium into the four corresponding sub-ventilation racks 504. The four sub-ventilation racks 504 introduce helium into the cooling hollow rods in the corresponding cooling racks 502. At this time, the helium cools the carrier 201 through the several small holes on the cooling hollow rods, thereby increasing the temperature of the carrier 201. 01 has good thermal conductivity, and the buffer mechanism 4 can play the role of air pressure buffer for the main ventilation frame 503 and the sub-ventilation frame 504 when the air pressure is relatively high, so as to avoid the wafer being damaged due to the excessive input air pressure. At the same time, helium is first introduced into the annular main ventilation frame 503, then into the annular sub-ventilation frame 504, and finally helium is input from the middle position of the lower end of the cooling hollow rod on the cooling frame 502, so that the cold zone of the carrier 201 is more uniform, thereby further improving the cooling effect of the carrier 201.
