[0002] As a key link in semiconductor manufacturing, the lithography process includes a series of precise steps such as wafer spin coating, exposure, development, hard baking, etching, and resist stripping. Among them, the spin coating step is particularly crucial, aiming to ensure that the photoresist can be evenly distributed on the wafer surface with an appropriate thickness, so as to ensure that the photoresist on the wafer surface can obtain a uniform and appropriate photosensitive effect during the subsequent exposure process.

[0003] Currently, the spin coating process often uses a motor-driven vacuum chuck to adsorb and rotate the wafer, and uses centrifugal force to evenly distribute the photoresist on the wafer surface. For example, a wafer spin coating device for a lithography machine with the publication number CN108646517A can ensure the horizontal fixation of the wafer by adjusting the level of the base, and achieve the uniformity of the photoresist coating thickness;

[0004] However, during the wafer placement stage in the spin coating process, there is still a lack of an effective auxiliary centering mechanism, which is difficult to ensure the precise coincidence of the wafer center and the rotation point, and easily leads to uneven spin coating and affects subsequent processing; in addition, the method of first dropping the glue and then rotating for spin coating is also difficult to perform preliminary spin coating while supplying the glue.

[0040] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0041] Embodiment 1: Please refer to Figures 1 - 5 As shown, for the situation where there is a lack of an effective auxiliary centering processing mechanism, it is difficult to ensure the precise coincidence of the center of the wafer and the rotation point, which easily leads to uneven glue spreading and affects subsequent processing, the following solutions can be adopted to solve it;

[0042] In this embodiment, the wafer spin coating processing method adopting the slit glue supply and spin coating integrated structure is realized by relying on the glue supply and spin coating integrated device. The glue supply and spin coating integrated device includes a fixed table 1. A centering and fixing component 2 for autonomously centering and clamping the wafer is arranged on the fixed table 1, and a deflecting glue supply component 3 for supplying glue in different positions and amounts along the radius length of the wafer. Above the fixed table 1, a glue collecting cylinder 4 that cooperates with the centering and fixing component 2 to collect and discharge the remaining glue is movably installed.

[0043] The centering and fixing component 2 includes a rotating column 21 rotatably installed on the fixed table 1. The top of the rotating column 21 is fixedly connected with a turntable 22. A plurality of bellows suction cups 23 are fixedly installed on the top of the turntable 22. Place the wafer on the tops of the plurality of bellows suction cups 23 on the turntable 22, and by pumping the air in each bellows suction cup 23, the wafer is fixed by negative pressure adsorption. Before fixing, use a dust cleaning device to clean the dust and impurities on the surface of the wafer to improve the fixing and spin coating effects.

[0044] A spring is installed inside the side wall of the bellows suction cup 23. The spring is provided to increase the supporting force of the bellows suction cup 23 on the wafer, and when the bellows suction cup 23 adsorbs the wafer and the arc-shaped clamping plate 29 pushes the wafer to move for centering, it helps to improve the contact effect between the top of the bellows suction cup 23 and the wafer, avoiding the problem of reduced fixing effect caused by the separation of the two.

[0045] A gas plate 24 is arranged below the turntable 22. An air pipe 1 is installed on the gas plate 24, and an air pipe 2 is connected between the air pipe 1 and each bellows suction cup 23. A vacuum generating device 25 is installed at the bottom of the fixed table 1, and the suction pipe of the vacuum generating device 25 is connected to the air pipe 1 through a rotary joint.

[0046] The air pipe 1 passes through the inside of the rotating column 21 and is combined with a rotary joint to avoid interfering with the rotation of the rotating column 21. The vacuum generating device 25 extracts the air in each bellows suction cup 23 through the rotary joint, the air pipe 1, the gas plate 24 and the air pipe 2, so as to fix the wafer by negative pressure adsorption. During the adsorption and fixing process, as the gas in the bellows suction cup 23 decreases, it causes its height to drop and drives the wafer to move downward, compressing the spring.

[0047] Rotating sleeve rods 26 are rotatably connected between adjacent two bellows suction cups 23 on the turntable 22. A material supporting part 27 is fixedly connected to the rotating sleeve rod 26, and an adjusting rod 28 is slidably connected to the rotating sleeve rod 26. The end of the adjusting rod 28 is fixedly connected with an arc-shaped clamping plate 29. When the wafer moves downward and touches the material supporting part 27 on each rotating sleeve rod 26, the rotating sleeve rod 26 deflects, and the arc-shaped clamping plate 29 moves upward to contact the side wall of the wafer, so as to push the wafer to move for centering treatment.

[0048] In addition, through the multi-point contact between the wafer and the multiple material supporting parts 27, the horizontality after the disc is fixed can be assisted in being corrected, thereby ensuring the uniformity during spin coating. A locking bolt that abuts against the adjusting rod 28 is threadedly connected to the rotating sleeve rod 26. By rotating the locking bolt, the adjusting rod 28 is pulled to move within the rotating sleeve rod 26, and the distance between the arc-shaped clamping plate 29 and the rotating sleeve rod 26 is adjusted, so as to complete the self-centering clamping of wafers of different sizes.

[0049] An external gear ring is fixedly connected to the rotating column 21. A motor is installed on the fixed table 1 through bolts, and a gear meshing with the external gear ring is installed on the output shaft of the motor. The motor drives the rotating column 21 to rotate through the meshing gears, and the rotating column 21 drives the turntable 22 and the wafer to rotate.

[0050] Embodiment 2: Please refer to Figures 1 - 9 As shown, for the problem that it is difficult to perform preliminary spin coating while supplying glue when using the method of first dripping glue and then spin coating, and further improving the spin coating efficiency, the following solution can be adopted;

[0051] In this embodiment, the deflecting glue supply assembly 3 includes a mounting column 31 rotatably mounted on the glue collecting cylinder 4. A glue supply cutter head 32 is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting column 31. A glue storage cavity is formed inside the glue supply cutter head 32, and a slit opening 33 with a triangular structure is formed through the bottom of the glue storage cavity. A glue inlet pipe is installed on the glue supply cutter head 32;

[0052] Photoresist is filled into the glue storage cavity through the glue inlet pipe, and then discharged through the slit opening 33 and contacts the wafer. Due to the triangular structure of the slit opening 33, the photoresist performs synchronous and different amounts of glue supply treatment at different positions in the radial length of the wafer, so as to meet the different glue amounts required at different positions in the radial length of the wafer after it rotates one week, thereby completing the overall glue supply treatment. And during the glue supply process, the discharged photoresist is initially spin coated by the glue supply cutter head 32, which can further improve the subsequent spin coating efficiency.

[0053] A blocking plate 34 is slidably connected inside the glue storage cavity. A fixing bolt that abuts against the blocking plate 34 is threadedly installed on the glue supply cutter head 32. By rotating the fixing screw, the blocking plate 34 is pulled to move within the glue storage cavity, and the blocking length of the slit opening 33 by the blocking plate 34 is adjusted to cope with the glue supply treatment of wafers of different sizes, and to avoid the problem that part of the photoresist is directly discharged when supplying glue to wafers of different sizes;

[0054] A rubber plug 35 that slides against the slit opening 33 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the plugging plate 34. The cross-section of the rubber plug 35 is in a ﹞ structure. Through the rubber plug 35 with the ﹞ structure, during the sliding process of the rubber plug 35, it can always slide against both sides of the slit opening 33, thereby further assisting the plugging plate 34 to increase the control of the glue discharging length of the slit opening 33, and then achieving better control of the glue discharging amount, and minimizing the use amount of photoresist supply to the greatest extent.

[0055] An electric push rod 36 is fixedly connected to the fixing table 1. The end of the piston rod of the electric push rod 36 is connected to the mounting column 31 through a rotating seat. While the electric push rod 36 drives the mounting column 31 and carries the glue supply cutter head 32 to descend, it synchronously carries the glue collecting cylinder 4 to descend. A plurality of guide rods that slide with the fixing table 1 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the glue collecting cylinder 4, which is used to increase the lifting stability of the glue collecting cylinder 4.

[0056] An L-shaped guiding groove 37 is formed on the outer circumferential wall of the mounting column 31. The L-shaped guiding groove 37 includes a vertical section and an inclined section. A fixing plate 11 is fixedly connected to the top of the fixing table 1, and a guiding pin 12 that slides with the L-shaped guiding groove 37 is fixedly connected to the fixing plate 11. The electric push rod 36 drives the mounting column 31 and carries the glue collecting cylinder 4 to descend. During the descending process, the guiding pin 12 slides in the inclined section of the L-shaped guiding groove 37, causing the mounting column 31 to carry the glue supply cutter head 32 to deflect by 90°, so that the glue supply cutter head 32 first deflects to directly above the top of the adsorbed and fixed wafer;

[0057] The guiding pin 12 slides into the vertical section, restricting the deflection and descent of the mounting column 31 until the distance between the glue supply cutter head 32 and the wafer is equal to the coating thickness. The glue supply cutter head 32 performs primary glue leveling treatment on the discharged photoresist. After the glue supply is completed, the electric push rod 36 drives the mounting column 31 to rise, causing the glue collecting cylinder 4 and the glue supply cutter head 32 to rise, and the glue supply cutter head 32 deflects in the reverse direction to return, moving away from directly above the top of the wafer, thereby achieving the effect of convenient loading and unloading with anti-blocking.

[0058] A splash-proof ring 41 is rotatably installed at the top of the glue collecting cylinder 4. As the glue collecting cylinder 4 rises, the glue collecting cylinder 4 and the splash-proof ring 41 are sleeved around the wafer for four-sided shielding. The motor drives the turntable 22 to rotate at a high speed, causing the photoresist that is uneven at the head and tail sections of the slit coating to be evenly spread through rotation for secondary glue leveling treatment;

[0059] A plurality of scraping plates 42 that slide inside the glue collecting cylinder 4 are fixedly connected to the splash-proof ring 41. A small amount of excess photoresist is thrown onto the inner wall of the glue collecting cylinder 4 and the scraping plates 42. The small amount of excess splashed glue is intercepted and collected, and is discharged and recycled by a multi-stage scraping method. A plurality of support rods 43 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the turntable 22, and scraping frames 44 that slide with the corresponding scraping plates 42 are fixedly connected to the support rods 43;

[0060] By rotating the turntable 22, the rubber scraping plate 42 is driven to rotate in combination with the supporting rod 43 and the rubber scraping frame 44, so as to scrape and clean the glue on the inner wall of the glue collecting cylinder 4. A glue discharging pipe is installed at the bottom of the glue collecting cylinder 4, and the scraped photoresist is discharged and recycled through the glue discharging pipe. Then, with the downward movement of the glue collecting cylinder 4, the rubber scraping frame 44 moves upward relative to the rubber scraping plate 42, so as to scrape and clean the glue on the rubber scraping plate 42.

[0061] Embodiment 3: Please refer to Figures 1 - 9 As shown, the present invention also proposes a wafer spin coating method adopting a slit glue supply and spin coating integrated structure, including the following steps:

[0062] S1: Pretreatment: Use a dust cleaning device to clean the dust and impurities on the surface of the wafer.

[0063] S2: Self-centering fixation: Use a glue supply and spin coating integrated device to adsorb and fix the wafer, and use the downward movement of the adsorption and fixation to perform multi-point clamping on the wafer, and complete the centering rotation after the wafer is fixed.

[0064] Place the wafer on the top of a plurality of bellows suction cups 23 on the turntable 22. The vacuum generating device 25 extracts the air in each bellows suction cup 23 through the rotary joint, the first air pipe, the air disc 24 and the second air pipe, so as to perform negative pressure adsorption and fixation on the wafer. During the adsorption and fixation process, as the gas in the bellows suction cup 23 decreases, it causes its height to drop and carry the wafer to move downward. The wafer contacts the material supporting part 27 on each rotating sleeve rod 26, causing the rotating sleeve rod 26 to deflect. The arc-shaped clamping plate 29 moves upward to contact the side wall of the wafer, so as to push the wafer to move for centering treatment.

[0065] S3: Slit glue supply: Through a slit glue outlet with a specific shape, perform synchronous and different amount glue supply treatment on different positions of the wafer in the radial length, and combine with the low-speed rotation of the wafer to perform uniform and comprehensive glue supply and primary spin coating treatment.

[0066] The electric push rod 36 drives the mounting column 31 and carries the glue collecting cylinder 4 to move downward. During the downward movement, through the sliding of the guide pin 12 in the L-shaped guide groove 37, the mounting column 31 is made to carry the glue supply cutter head 32 to deflect by 90°. First, the glue supply cutter head 32 deflects to directly above the adsorbed and fixed wafer, and then the deflection is restricted and it descends until the distance between the glue supply cutter head 32 and the wafer is equal to the coating thickness. Fill the photoresist into the glue storage cavity through the glue inlet pipe, and then discharge it through the slit opening 33 and contact the wafer. Through the triangular structure of the slit opening 33, the photoresist performs synchronous and different amount glue supply treatment on different positions of the wafer in the radial length.

[0067] The motor drives the rotating column 21 to rotate slowly through the meshing gears and the external toothed ring. The rotating column 21 drives the turntable 22 and the wafer to rotate, completing the full glue supply process. During the glue supply process, the discharged photoresist is initially leveled by the glue supply cutter head 32.

[0068] S4: Residual glue collection and secondary leveling: The wafer rotates at a high speed, and the centrifugal force promotes the further uniform coating of the photoresist. A small amount of the excess residual glue thrown out is intercepted and collected, and a multi-stage scraping method is used to discharge and recycle it.

[0069] After the glue supply is completed, the electric push rod 36 drives the mounting column 31 to move upward, causing the glue collection cylinder 4 and the glue supply cutter head 32 to rise. And the glue supply cutter head 32 deflects in the reverse reset direction. The glue collection cylinder 4 combines with the anti-splash ring 41 to perform a sleeve-type four-sided shielding on the wafer. The motor drives the turntable 22 to rotate at a high speed, so that the photoresist that is uneven at the head and tail of the slit coating is flattened and leveled again through rotation.

[0070] A small amount of excess photoresist is thrown onto the inner wall of the glue collection cylinder 4 and the scraping plate 42. Through the rotation of the turntable 22, the scraping plate 42 is driven to rotate in combination with the support rod 43 and the scraping frame 44, so as to scrape and clean the glue on the inner wall of the glue collection cylinder 4, and it is discharged and recycled through the glue discharge pipe. Then, with the downward movement of the glue collection cylinder 4, the scraping frame 44 moves upward relative to the scraping plate 42, so as to scrape and clean the glue on the scraping plate 42.

[0071] S5: Rotate the locking bolt, pull the adjusting rod 28 to move within the rotating sleeve rod 26, adjust the distance between the arc-shaped clamping plate 29 and the rotating sleeve rod 26, and complete the self-centering clamping of wafers of different sizes. Rotate the fixing screw, pull the blocking plate 34 to move within the glue storage cavity, and adjust the blocking length of the blocking plate 34 for the slit opening 33 to cope with the glue supply treatment of wafers of different sizes.

[0072] The above is only the preferred specific implementation manner of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, according to the technical solution of the present invention and its inventive concept, makes equivalent substitutions or changes, and should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
