Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of semiconductor technology, and in particular to a furnace body with a wind channel structure for rapid cooling. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the chip manufacturing process, the heat treatment equipment process is a very critical link. Through oxidation, deposition, annealing, diffusion and other processes on the wafer, the physical and electrical properties of the chip can be precisely controlled. After completing the heat treatment process step, the wafer in the furnace body needs to be cooled. In order to ensure the overall performance consistency and quality stability of the produced chips, the cooling rate needs to be reasonably controlled.

[0003] In the prior art, some heat treatment equipment adopts a natural cooling method. This method has the problems of slow cooling speed and long process time, which seriously affects the production efficiency. At the same time, for some processes that require a cooling rate, the heat treatment equipment cannot meet the corresponding production requirements. Some heat treatment equipment uses air cooling, but the design of the air channel structure does not fully consider the particularity of the semiconductor heat treatment process. For example, the air channel layout is not reasonable, which causes the cold air to be unable to uniformly cover the furnace body, resulting in inconsistent cooling rates of different parts of the furnace body, and thus affecting the uniformity of the performance of the semiconductor device.

[0004] In the process of cooling the wafer in the furnace body using the existing air channel structure, a fan is often used to accelerate the flow speed of the cooling gas in the air channel structure to carry away the heat inside the furnace body. When the fan accelerates the flow of the cooling gas, the high-speed flowing cooling gas will generate a large impact force and friction force on the heat preservation material of the inner wall of the furnace body, thereby accelerating the erosion of the heat preservation material. With the passage of time, the structure and performance of the heat preservation material will be gradually destroyed, and the heat preservation fibers on its surface will gradually fall off, and small particles will fall off inside the furnace body. In the production process of semiconductor wafers, the cleanliness of the production environment is extremely high. If these small pollution particles are scattered everywhere in the furnace body under the action of the airflow, it will have a bad impact on the internal environment of the furnace body. At the same time, if the furnace body has an exhaust system, it may reduce the impact of these small pollution particles on the internal environment, but it will adversely affect the service life and normal operation of the furnace body, thereby affecting the performance and yield of the entire semiconductor chip and increasing the maintenance cost and production risk of the equipment.

[0005] Therefore, under the premise of realizing air cooling of the wafer in the furnace body, how to reasonably arrange the space and optimize the structure of the air channel structure to achieve rapid cooling, reduce the erosion of the cooling gas to the inner wall of the furnace body, reduce the generation of small pollution particles, and improve the service life of the furnace body has become a technical problem that needs to be solved by those skilled in the art.

[0029] In the embodiment, in order to realize the air cooling function of the furnace chamber, shorten the wafer processing process time, and further speed up the production efficiency, the application is provided with an air inlet system 5 outside the vertical furnace 1, and an axial air inlet channel 2 and a wind channel structure group 3 extending along the axial direction and the circumferential direction of the vertical furnace 1 are arranged inside the heat preservation structure 8, the axial air inlet channel 2 is used for conveying cooling gas along the axial extension direction of the vertical furnace 1, and the wind channel structure group 3 is used for conveying cooling gas along the radial extension direction of the vertical furnace 1, wherein the input end of the axial air inlet channel 2 is communicated with the output end of the air inlet system 5, the input end of the wind channel structure group 3 is communicated with the output end of the axial air inlet channel 2, and the output end of the wind channel structure group 3 is communicated with the furnace chamber, for conveying the cooling gas conveyed by the air inlet system 5 to the furnace chamber through the axial air inlet channel 2 and the wind channel structure group 3, rapidly cooling and cooling the furnace chamber by using the heat exchange principle, and finally discharging the waste gas in the vertical furnace 1 to the outside through the air outlet 10 and the air outlet system 6.

[0030] In the embodiment, since the temperature of the cooling gas gradually rises when flowing from the bottom of the furnace chamber to the upper part of the furnace chamber, the cooling effect will gradually decrease, in order to increase the cooling effect of the middle and upper parts of the furnace chamber to ensure the uniformity of the cooling, a plurality of wind channel structure groups 3 are arranged at the middle and upper parts of the furnace chamber to accelerate the introduction of the cooling gas, the vertical furnace 1 is divided into a plurality of temperature zones according to the height of the vertical furnace 1, and the number and spatial layout of the wind channel structure groups 3 in each temperature zone are optimized, so that the rapid cooling of the furnace chamber can be realized, the cooling effect of the middle and upper parts of the furnace chamber can be effectively increased, and the requirement of uniformity of the cooling can be ensured, so as to ensure the yield of the wafers; specifically, a plurality of temperature zones are divided according to the height of the vertical furnace 1, at least one wind channel structure group 3 is arranged in each temperature zone, and the number of the wind channel structure groups 3 in each temperature zone is arranged according to a preset number ratio, so as to increase the cooling effect of the middle and upper parts of the furnace chamber when the cooling gas flows from the bottom temperature zone to the upper temperature zone of the furnace chamber during the process of conveying the cooling gas to the furnace chamber through the axial air inlet channel 2 and the wind channel structure group 3.

[0031] In the embodiment, along the axial direction of the vertical furnace 1, a plurality of air duct structure groups 3 are arranged in each temperature zone of the vertical furnace 1, and the number of air duct structure groups 3 in each temperature zone is arranged according to a preset number ratio. Specifically, according to the height of the vertical furnace 1, the height is divided into X temperature zones, the number of air duct structure groups 3 in the bottom temperature zone is set to Y, Y is an integer greater than 1, and from the top to the bottom of the vertical furnace 1, the number ratio of air duct structure groups 3 in each temperature zone is (Y X +1~2) : (Y X-1 +1~2) :... : (Y1~1), wherein Y X represents the number of air duct structure groups 3 in the Xth temperature zone, and Y X , Y X-1 ,..., Y1 are the same; in addition, it should be noted that the more the number of temperature zones X is set, the fewer the number of air duct structure groups 3 in a single temperature zone is, and the height of the vertical furnace 1 is defined as H, the height h of the temperature zone is H / X, and the air duct structure groups 3 in each temperature zone can be arranged uniformly or non-uniformly, which can be adjusted flexibly according to actual production needs, and is not limited here.

[0032] For example, in the embodiment, referring to the accompanying drawings Figure 1 , according to the height of the vertical furnace 1, the height is divided into three temperature zones from top to bottom, which are the lower temperature zone 17, the middle temperature zone 16 and the upper temperature zone 15. Since the cooling gas is introduced from the lower air inlet 12, the cooling effect will decrease when it reaches the middle temperature zone 16 and the upper temperature zone 15, therefore, the number of air duct structure groups 3 arranged in the upper temperature zone 15 and the middle temperature zone 16 will exceed that arranged in the lower temperature zone 17, for example: the number ratio of air duct structure groups 3 in the upper temperature zone 15, the middle temperature zone 16 and the lower temperature zone 17 is (10~2) : (10~2) : (10~1), preferably, the number ratio of air duct structure groups 3 in the upper temperature zone 15, the middle temperature zone 16 and the lower temperature zone 17 is 3:3:2.

[0033] In the embodiment, the number of the lateral air duct structures 3.1 in the same lateral direction affects the cooling rate in the lateral direction, and a large number of the lateral air duct structures 3.1 also reduces the heat preservation effect of the vertical furnace 1. Therefore, in order to improve the cooling rate of the vertical furnace 1 in the circumferential direction and the cooling effect in the axial direction, and ensure the heat preservation effect of the vertical furnace 1, the number and spatial layout of the lateral air duct structures 3.1 in the same circumferential direction and the spatial layout between the adjacent two lateral air duct structures 3.1 in the axial direction of the vertical furnace 1 are optimized, so as to improve the cooling rate of the vertical furnace 1 in the circumferential direction and the cooling effect in the axial direction, avoid the problem of reducing the heat preservation effect of the vertical furnace 1 caused by arranging too many lateral air duct structures 3.1, and ensure the heat preservation effect of the vertical furnace 1. Specifically, along the circumferential direction of the vertical furnace 1, each air duct structure group 3 includes a plurality of lateral air duct structures 3.1, and the adjacent two lateral air duct structures 3.1 are distributed at a first preset angle, and along the axial direction of the vertical furnace 1, the adjacent two lateral air duct structures 3.1 in the adjacent two air duct structure groups 3 are distributed at a second preset angle. Referring to FIG. 2, the solid part represents one lateral air duct structure 3.1 included in the air duct structure group of the current layer, for example, A represents the lateral air duct structure of the current layer, the dashed part represents the lateral air duct structure 3.1 adjacent to A in the air duct structure group of the adjacent layer (i.e., the air duct structure group of the layer above or below the current layer), for example, B represents the lateral air duct structure of the adjacent layer, and the angle between A and B is the second preset angle, for example, a represents the second preset angle, which is used to improve the cooling rate of the vertical furnace 1 in the circumferential direction and the cooling effect in the axial direction, and ensure the heat preservation effect of the vertical furnace 1. Figure 5 , the solid part represents one lateral air duct structure 3.1 included in the air duct structure group of the current layer, for example, A represents the lateral air duct structure of the current layer, the dashed part represents the lateral air duct structure 3.1 adjacent to A in the air duct structure group of the adjacent layer (i.e., the air duct structure group of the layer above or below the current layer), for example, B represents the lateral air duct structure of the adjacent layer, and the angle between A and B is the second preset angle, for example, a represents the second preset angle, which is used to improve the cooling rate of the vertical furnace 1 in the circumferential direction and the cooling effect in the axial direction, and ensure the heat preservation effect of the vertical furnace 1.

[0034] In the embodiment, in the same lateral direction, the air duct structure group 3 is composed of a plurality of lateral air duct structures 3.1, the number of the lateral air duct structures 3.1 of each air duct structure group 3 is 2-30, and the angle between the adjacent two lateral air duct structures 3.1 is 12-180°, and in the axial direction of the vertical furnace 1, the angle between the adjacent two lateral air duct structures 3.1 in the adjacent two air duct structure groups 3 is 0-90°, for example, referring to FIG. 2, the angle a between A and B is 15°. Figure 5 , the solid part represents one lateral air duct structure 3.1 included in the air duct structure group of the current layer, for example, A represents the lateral air duct structure of the current layer, the dashed part represents the lateral air duct structure 3.1 adjacent to A in the air duct structure group of the adjacent layer (i.e., the air duct structure group of the layer above or below the current layer), for example, B represents the lateral air duct structure of the adjacent layer, and the angle between A and B is the second preset angle, for example, a represents the second preset angle, which is used to improve the cooling rate of the vertical furnace 1 in the circumferential direction and the cooling effect in the axial direction, and ensure the heat preservation effect of the vertical furnace 1.

[0035] For example, in the embodiment, referring to FIG. 2, the angle a between A and B is 15°. Figure 2In the same transverse direction, the wind channel structure group 3 includes three transverse wind channel structures 3.1, and the included angle between adjacent two transverse wind channel structures 3.1 is 120°; in addition, it should be noted that in the same transverse direction, the plurality of transverse wind channel structures 3.1 can be arranged uniformly at equal intervals or unevenly, which can be flexibly adjusted according to actual production needs, and will not be limited here. If the plurality of transverse wind channel structures 3.1 are arranged uniformly at equal intervals, the efficiency and airflow uniformity of the incoming air can be further improved.

[0036] For example, in the present embodiment, for the scenario of uneven arrangement of the plurality of transverse wind channel structures 3.1, in the circumferential direction of the vertical furnace 1, the wind channel structure group 3 includes six transverse wind channel structures 3.1, which can be equally divided into three in the circumferential extension direction of the vertical furnace, and two transverse wind channel structures 3.1 are arranged at each 120° angle position. The included angle between the two transverse wind channel structures 3.1 is 20° (see FIG. 2). Figure 6 On the premise of ensuring that the cooling gas blown out by the adjacent two transverse wind channel structures 3.1 does not interfere with each other, a better cooling effect can be achieved.

[0037] In the present embodiment, since the single-diameter traditional wind channel structure cannot reduce the wind pressure intensity and gas turbulence effect of the cooling gas at the output end of the transverse wind channel structure 3.1, the high-pressure flowing cooling gas can cause serious erosion to the inner wall of the vertical furnace 1. Therefore, the present application optimizes the structure of the transverse wind channel structure 3.1 by adopting the transverse wind channel structure 3.1 composed of a long wind channel and an air exchange chamber 3.1.2, so that when the cooling gas passes through the air exchange chamber 3.1.2 to reach the output end of the transverse wind channel structure 3.1, it can not only effectively reduce the wind pressure intensity and gas turbulence effect of the cooling gas at the output end of the transverse wind channel structure 3.1, thereby reducing the erosion degree of the flowing cooling gas to the inner wall of the vertical furnace 1, but also can avoid the problem of reducing the yield rate of wafers caused by the generation of fine pollution particles, and can improve the service life of the vertical furnace 1. Specifically, each transverse wind channel structure 3.1 includes a long wind channel and an air exchange chamber 3.1.2 in communication, and the long wind channel and the air exchange chamber 3.1.2 are arranged according to a preset length ratio and a preset diameter ratio, for reducing the wind pressure intensity of the cooling gas at the output end of the transverse wind channel structure 3.1, thereby reducing the erosion degree of the flowing cooling gas to the inner wall of the vertical furnace 1.

[0038] In the embodiment, the number of long wind channels is two, which are the first long wind channel 3.1.1 and the second long wind channel 3.1.3, the first long wind channel 3.1.1, the air exchange chamber 3.1.2 and the second long wind channel 3.1.3 are sequentially arranged along the transverse extension direction of the vertical furnace 1, and the first long wind channel 3.1.1 is arranged close to the hearth, the length ratio between the first long wind channel 3.1.1, the air exchange chamber 3.1.2 and the second long wind channel 3.1.3 is (1-10):(1-10):(1-10), the diameter ratio between the first long wind channel 3.1.1, the air exchange chamber 3.1.2 and the second long wind channel 3.1.3 is (1-10):(1-10):(1-10), by optimizing the length ratio and the diameter ratio of the first long wind channel 3.1.1, the air exchange chamber 3.1.2 and the second long wind channel 3.1.3, the wind pressure intensity of the flowing cooling gas at the output end of the transverse wind channel structure 3.1 can be reduced by 6-12% under the condition of the same air inlet amount, and the pressure contour can be reduced by 8-16%, so as to effectively reduce the erosion of the inner wall of the vertical furnace 1, and further reduce the generation of small pollution particles.

[0039] For example, in the embodiment, reference is made to the accompanying drawings Figure 2 and the accompanying drawings Figure 3 , the length ratio between the first long wind channel 3.1.1, the air exchange chamber 3.1.2 and the second long wind channel 3.1.3 is 1:1:2, and the diameter ratio between the first long wind channel 3.1.1, the air exchange chamber 3.1.2 and the second long wind channel 3.1.3 is 1:2:1, the detection results show that compared with the traditional wind channel structure with a single diameter, the wind pressure intensity of the flowing cooling gas at the output end of the transverse wind channel structure 3.1 can be reduced by 8% under the condition of the same air inlet amount, and the pressure contour can be reduced by 11%, the wind pressure of the cooling gas is reduced, which can effectively reduce the erosion of the inner wall of the vertical furnace 1 and reduce the generation of small pollution particles.
