[0002] With the development of power electronics technology and the rapid growth of the power electronics market, the third-generation wide bandgap semiconductor silicon carbide (SiC) has gradually become a strong competitor for the next generation of power devices for electric vehicles and power converters. Compared with traditional devices made of silicon (Si), silicon carbide power electronic devices have advantages such as lower on-resistance, higher electron mobility, wider band gap and higher breakdown voltage, which helps to reduce power consumption, increase the switching speed of devices, improve the high temperature resistance of devices, and provide a larger operating range and power range.
[0003] However, during the growth or annealing process of silicon carbide crystals, if thermal stress introduced into the crystal or internal defects of the crystal exceed the tolerance threshold of the crystal, it will cause the crystal to crack, resulting in through-type or partial penetration cracks, reducing the electron mobility and mechanical lightness of the crystal, causing serious impact on the overall quality and performance of the crystal, and thus affecting the quality of the silicon carbide polishing sheet obtained.
[0004] Therefore, before manufacturing power devices based on silicon carbide polishing wafers, crack detection of the silicon carbide polishing wafers is required. Summary of the invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0038] The embodiments of the present application are described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. The terms used in the implementation mode of the present application are only used to explain the specific embodiments of the present application, and are not intended to limit the present application. It is known to those skilled in the art that with the development of technology and the emergence of new scenarios, the technical solutions provided in the embodiments of the present application are also applicable to similar technical problems.
[0039] The applicant in this case has found through research that currently, manual inspection is usually adopted to achieve the crack detection task of silicon carbide polishing sheets. Specifically, the silicon carbide polishing sheets can be comprehensively inspected by manually operating a microscope, or the silicon carbide polishing sheets can be first sucked up by a suction pen and inspected for cracks under a strong light. After the cracks are detected, the crack size can be determined by manually operating a microscope.
[0040] The above-mentioned manual inspection method requires manual use of tools such as suction pens and tweezers to clamp and move the sheet, which is easy to leave clamping marks on the silicon carbide polishing sheet, and the suction pen may accidentally suck the Si surface of the polishing sheet, increasing the risk of polishing sheet loss caused by manual operation. In addition, since the brightness and morphology of cracks are different under different lighting angles, when inspectors visually inspect the silicon carbide polishing sheet under strong light, defects may be missed or misdetected due to different angles of holding the sheet when inspectors visually inspect; since the morphology of some cracks and scratch defects is similar, when inspectors perform crack inspection through a microscope, they cannot distinguish between crack defects and other defects such as scratches on the polishing sheet. In addition, the manual inspection method manually determines whether there are cracks, and it is difficult to retain the evidence of the inspection results, resulting in the inability to trace back when quality problems occur later, which is not conducive to problem analysis; manually intercepting images under a microscope and manually marking the size with a ruler is prone to human error. Therefore, the current crack detection method is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and it is difficult to achieve accurate, fast, and high-precision crack detection tasks.
[0041] To solve the above problems, the present application provides a method and device for detecting cracks in a silicon carbide polishing sheet, so as to realize the crack detection task of the silicon carbide polishing sheet and improve the accuracy and precision of the detection.
[0042] Figure 1 1 is a flow chart of a method for detecting cracks in a silicon carbide polishing sheet according to an embodiment of the present application. Figure 1 As shown, the method may include the following steps:
[0043] Step S101, obtaining a dark field image of a silicon carbide polishing wafer.
[0044] Among them, the dark field image of the silicon carbide polishing sheet is obtained based on dark field reflection imaging. It should be noted that under a dark field light source, if there is no defect, the light will be reflected symmetrically, the image acquisition device will not receive the reflected light, the field of view of the image acquisition device tends to be completely black, and the grayscale value of the image collected is high; if there are cracks or other defects, the light reflection will change, the image acquisition device will receive part of the reflected light, and in the field of view of the image acquisition device, the defect is brighter, and other positions are darker, and there is a difference in grayscale value. Based on this, through light reflection imaging under a dark field light source, a dark field image basis can be provided for detecting cracks or other defects on silicon carbide polishing sheets.
[0045] Step S102: extracting an image region satisfying a grayscale value abnormality condition from the dark field image of the silicon carbide polishing wafer, and determining a polishing wafer region corresponding to the extracted image region from the silicon carbide polishing wafer.
[0046] For example, the grayscale value abnormal condition may be that the grayscale value is different from the reference grayscale value by more than a preset limit, and the reference grayscale value refers to the grayscale value of a normal area without cracks and other defects. If the grayscale value changes by more than 10 relative to the background grayscale, it indicates that the grayscale value is abnormal.
[0047] In one possible implementation, this step can be implemented by a visual model, that is, the above-mentioned extraction of the image area that meets the grayscale value abnormality condition from the dark field image of the silicon carbide polishing sheet can include: calling a pre-trained dark field image processing model to process the dark field image of the silicon carbide polishing sheet, and determining the grayscale value abnormal area in the image, that is, the above-mentioned image area that meets the grayscale value abnormality condition; wherein the dark field image processing model can be trained using a dark field sample image of a silicon carbide polishing sheet with an annotated grayscale value abnormal area.
[0048] Step S103, obtaining a polarization image of the polishing sheet area.
[0049] The polarization image of the polished sheet area is obtained based on polarization imaging. It should be noted that in the polarization scene, there will be stress lines with obvious light and dark changes around the crack defect. Based on this, if stress lines exist, it can be determined that the defect is a crack. If stress lines do not exist, it can be determined that the defect is other defects such as scratches or dirt that are different from cracks.
[0050] Step S104: calling a pre-trained defect recognition model to process the polarization image of the polishing sheet area to obtain a defect type recognition result of the silicon carbide polishing sheet.
[0051] The defect recognition model is trained using polarized sample images of polished sheets annotated with defect type information. The defect type information may at least include information characterizing crack defects.
[0052] Step S105: when it is determined that the silicon carbide polishing sheet has a crack defect according to the defect type identification result, the crack size of the silicon carbide polishing sheet is calculated according to the image of the silicon carbide polishing sheet, and a crack defect detection result of the silicon carbide polishing sheet is generated.
[0053] Wherein, the image of the silicon carbide polishing sheet may include a dark field image of the silicon carbide polishing sheet or a polarization image of the silicon carbide polishing sheet, and the polarization image of the polishing sheet area belongs to the polarization image of the silicon carbide polishing sheet. The above crack defect detection result corresponds to the calculated crack size, and exemplarily, the crack defect detection result may include the calculated crack size.
[0054] Based on the above content, the present application first obtains a dark field image of a silicon carbide polishing sheet, extracts an image area that satisfies the grayscale value abnormality condition, determines the polishing sheet area corresponding to the image area, obtains a polarization image of the domain, and calls a pre-trained defect recognition model for image processing to obtain a defect type recognition result of the polishing sheet, and finally, when it is determined that there is a crack defect in the silicon carbide polishing sheet according to the recognition result, the crack size is calculated according to the polishing sheet image to generate a crack defect detection result. This embodiment determines the grayscale value abnormal area in the dark field image through dark field reflection imaging, and then determines the defect area on the polishing sheet. On this basis, based on the associated residual stress around the crack defect, the grayscale value change caused by the stress lines around the defect is determined through polarization imaging observation, thereby achieving the purpose of distinguishing other defects such as scratches and dirt from crack defects, and achieving accurate capture and classification of crack defects.
[0055] Furthermore, this embodiment processes the dark field image and polarization image of the silicon carbide polishing sheet by a terminal with data processing capabilities, eliminating the need for inspectors to conduct long-term observations under strong light or manually mark dimensions through a microscope, thereby reducing the labor and time costs of defect detection and improving the accuracy and efficiency of crack detection to a certain extent.
[0056] In a possible implementation, the dark field image and polarization image described in the present application can be acquired by using a CCD camera, that is, the above-mentioned image acquisition device can be a CCD camera.
[0057] Among them, CCD camera refers to any camera with a charge coupled device (CCD) image sensor. By collecting polishing sheet images with a high-resolution CCD camera, the accuracy of crack detection can be improved to a certain extent.
[0058] In one or more embodiments provided in the present application, the dark field image of the silicon carbide polishing sheet may include dark field block images of various regions of the silicon carbide polishing sheet; correspondingly, the polarization image of the silicon carbide polishing sheet may include polarization block images of various regions of the silicon carbide polishing sheet.
[0059] Based on this, the above-mentioned process of processing the image of the silicon carbide polishing sheet may include: processing the block images of each area respectively. Exemplarily, the above-mentioned process of extracting the image area that meets the gray value abnormality condition from the dark field image of the silicon carbide polishing sheet may include: extracting the sub-areas that meet the gray value abnormality condition from the dark field block images of each area of the silicon carbide polishing sheet respectively, and obtaining the image area that meets the gray value abnormality condition, which includes each sub-area that meets the gray value abnormality condition.
[0060] In one or more embodiments provided in the present application, the process of acquiring the block image of each area of the silicon carbide polishing sheet may include:
[0061] Step A: after determining that the silicon carbide polishing sheet is placed on the wafer stage, adsorbing the silicon carbide polishing sheet by a vacuum adsorption component arranged on the wafer stage.
[0062] By using the vacuum adsorption component to adsorb the silicon carbide polishing sheet on the stage, the silicon carbide polishing sheet can be made stationary relative to the stage. On this basis, the stage can be moved to achieve relative movement between the silicon carbide polishing sheet and the acquisition range of the image acquisition device. In addition, clamping the polishing sheet by vacuum adsorption can eliminate the warping of the polishing sheet to avoid the image defocusing phenomenon caused by the warping of the polishing sheet; and this method can minimize the contact with the surface of the polishing sheet, which helps to ensure the cleanliness of the polishing sheet.
[0063] Optionally, the vacuum adsorption component can be a liftable vacuum adsorption component. By means of the liftable vacuum adsorption component, the transparent polishing sheet on the stage can be lifted up, and then the image can be collected. Compared with the solution of adsorbing the polishing sheet on the stage for image collection, the image collected by this solution can show the defects on the back of the polishing sheet, thereby achieving a more comprehensive crack defect detection task. On this basis, the crack position can also be determined by imaging resolution, such as determining whether the crack is located on the upper surface or the lower surface.
[0064] Step B: turning on a preset light source that provides preset light for an image acquisition range of a preset image acquisition device.
[0065] Step C, move the wafer stage to a preset initial position, move the wafer stage along a preset trajectory according to a preset step length, and obtain block images of various areas of the silicon carbide polishing sheet collected by the preset image acquisition device during the movement of the wafer stage.
[0066] Wherein, in the process that the wafer stage moves along the preset trajectory starting from the preset initial position, each area of the silicon carbide polishing sheet is sequentially located within the image acquisition range of the preset image acquisition device. It should be noted that the preset step size can be set according to the range of the image acquisition field of view of the image acquisition device to ensure that the image acquisition device can acquire images of each area of the polishing sheet. In the case where the acquired block image is a dark field block image, the preset image acquisition device is an image acquisition device for acquiring a dark field image, the preset light is a dark field light, and the preset light source is a dark field light source; in the case where the acquired block image is a polarized block image, the preset image acquisition device is an image acquisition device for acquiring a polarized image, the preset light is a polarized light, and the preset light source is a polarized light source.
[0067] In one possible implementation, the preset initial position may be a position that satisfies a preset position condition, wherein the preset position condition may be that the upper left corner of the silicon carbide polishing sheet is located within the image acquisition range of a preset image acquisition device; on this basis, the preset trajectory may be an S-shaped trajectory, that is, the preset image acquisition device may acquire the images of each block of the first row of the polishing sheet in a sequence from left to right, and then acquire the images of each block of the second row of the polishing sheet in a sequence from right to left, and so on. The motion trajectory of the stage is S-shaped or serpentine, so as to save image acquisition time.
[0068] In one or more embodiments provided in the present application, the vacuum adsorption component may include two groups of sub-components, each group of sub-components includes a preset number of vacuum tubes connected to a vacuum pump and capable of being raised and lowered, and each group of sub-components is used to adsorb the polishing sheet placed on the wafer carrier and to raise and lower the polishing sheet.
[0069] Optionally, the above-mentioned preset number may be at least 3 to achieve stable clamping of the polishing sheet.
[0070] On the basis of the above, the process of acquiring the block image of each area of the silicon carbide polishing sheet may include:
[0071] Step D: after determining that the silicon carbide polishing sheet is placed on the wafer stage, the silicon carbide polishing sheet is adsorbed by a first group of subcomponents arranged on the wafer stage, and the silicon carbide polishing sheet is lifted to a preset height.
[0072] The first group of subcomponents mentioned above is one of the two groups of subcomponents constituting the vacuum adsorption component, and the other group of the two groups of subcomponents constituting the vacuum adsorption component is the second group of subcomponents.
[0073] Step E: Turn on a preset light source that provides preset light for an image acquisition range of a preset image acquisition device.
[0074] Step F, move the wafer stage to a preset initial position, move the wafer stage along a preset trajectory according to a preset step length, and use the preset image acquisition device to capture block images of various areas of the silicon carbide polishing sheet adsorbed by the first group of sub-components during the movement of the wafer stage.
[0075] Step G, switching to adsorbing the silicon carbide polishing sheet through a second group of subcomponents arranged on the wafer stage, and lifting the silicon carbide polishing sheet to a preset height.
[0076] Step H: acquiring a block image of a designated area of the silicon carbide polishing sheet adsorbed by the second group of subcomponents through the preset image acquisition device.
[0077] The designated area includes an area corresponding to the adsorption position of the first group of subcomponents. It should be noted that the existence of the liftable vacuum tube will cause the acquired block image to contain the image area corresponding to the vacuum tube. Steps F and H can be used to complete the data, providing a basis for obtaining a complete polishing sheet image.
[0078] Optionally, the above-mentioned preset number can be 3 to reduce the interference of the vacuum adsorption component on the polishing wafer image acquisition, thereby reducing the polishing wafer area that requires repeated acquisition; in addition, the three vacuum tubes in the same group of sub-components can be arranged in a triangular shape on the wafer carrier to improve the adsorption stability of the silicon carbide polishing wafer.
[0079] Step I: obtaining block images of various regions of the silicon carbide polishing wafer.
[0080] The block images of each area of the silicon carbide polishing sheet may include: the block images of the designated area of the silicon carbide polishing sheet adsorbed by the second group of subcomponents, and the block images of the non-designated area of the silicon carbide polishing sheet adsorbed by the first group of subcomponents. That is, the above step I may include: using the block images of the designated area acquired in step H to replace the images of the corresponding areas in the images acquired in step F, and finally obtaining the block images of each area.
[0081] Wherein, in the process of the stage moving along the preset trajectory from the preset initial position, each area of the silicon carbide polishing sheet is sequentially located within the image acquisition range of the preset image acquisition device; in the case where the acquired block image is a dark field block image, the preset image acquisition device is an image acquisition device for acquiring a dark field image, the preset light is a dark field light, and the preset light source is a dark field light source; in the case where the acquired block image is a polarized block image, the preset image acquisition device is an image acquisition device for acquiring a polarized image, the preset light is a polarized light, and the preset light source is a polarized light source. In addition, other descriptions of the above step DI can refer to the above description and will not be repeated here.
[0082] On the basis of the above, in the case where it is determined that the silicon carbide polishing sheet has a crack defect according to the defect type identification result, the method may further include:
[0083] The position of the crack in the silicon carbide polishing sheet is determined according to an imaging resolution corresponding to the crack in the silicon carbide polishing sheet, wherein the position includes an upper surface or a lower surface.
[0084] It should be noted that an image acquisition device, such as a CCD camera, can return two clarity values, namely, the clarity result of the upper surface focus and the clarity result of the lower surface focus. If the upper surface is higher, it indicates that the crack defect is located on the upper surface, otherwise, it indicates that the crack defect is located on the lower surface.
[0085] In one or more embodiments provided in the present application, the above-mentioned step S105, calculating the crack size of the silicon carbide polishing sheet according to the image of the silicon carbide polishing sheet, may include:
[0086] Step J: Detecting the number of pixels occupied by the cracks in the silicon carbide polishing sheet in the image of the silicon carbide polishing sheet.
[0087] Step K: calculating the crack size of the silicon carbide polishing sheet according to the image acquisition accuracy of the image acquisition device for acquiring the image of the silicon carbide polishing sheet and the determined number of pixels.
[0088] Exemplarily, taking a single crack as an example, the crack size of the crack can be expressed as: pixel accuracy of the image acquisition device×the number of pixels occupied by the crack.
[0089] In one or more embodiments provided in the present application, the above-mentioned step S105, generating the crack defect detection result of the silicon carbide polishing sheet, may include:
[0090] Step L, generating a crack map of the silicon carbide polishing sheet.
[0091] Step M: determining the grading result of the silicon carbide polishing sheet according to the preset corresponding relationship between the crack defect situation and the polishing sheet grade.
[0092] Wherein, the crack defect condition includes the number of cracks and the crack size; exemplarily, the above-mentioned crack size can be the length of a single crack or the cumulative length of the cracks. Exemplarily, the corresponding relationship between the crack defect condition and the polishing sheet grade can be expressed as: Grade A corresponding to the first condition, Grade B corresponding to the second request, and Grade NG corresponding to the third condition; wherein, the first condition is that the number of cracks is zero, the second condition is that the number of cracks is not greater than 2 and the cumulative length of cracks is not greater than 10 millimeters (mm), and the third condition is that the number of cracks is greater than 2 and / or the cumulative length of cracks is greater than 10 mm.
[0093] Step N, generating a crack defect detection result of the silicon carbide polishing sheet.
[0094] The crack defect detection result may include: the crack map, the grading result, and the crack size, dark field image and polarization image of each crack in the silicon carbide polishing sheet.
[0095] In one or more embodiments provided in the present application, before extracting the image area satisfying the gray value abnormality condition from the dark field image of the silicon carbide polishing sheet, the method may further include:
[0096] The dark field image of the silicon carbide polishing sheet is subjected to image preprocessing.
[0097] Correspondingly, before calling the pre-trained defect recognition model to process the polarization image of the polishing sheet area, the following steps may also be included:
[0098] The polarization image of the polishing sheet area is subjected to image preprocessing.
[0099] The image preprocessing at least includes denoising or enhancement. Exemplarily, the enhancement may include contrast enhancement, sharpening, and using factors that interfere with subsequent image processing as background.
[0100] On the basis of the above, in a possible implementation, the process of processing the dark field image of the silicon carbide polishing sheet or the polarization image of the polishing sheet area may include image feature extraction and feature data processing.
