Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of semiconductor manufacturing, and in particular relates to a silicon wafer polishing process. Background Art
[0002] Semiconductor silicon wafers are generally manufactured through processes such as single crystal growth, rolling, slicing, chamfering, grinding, etching, backside processing (polycrystalline, back sealing), edge removal, edge polishing, frontside polishing, cleaning, testing, and finally packaging. Frontside polishing uses chemical mechanical planarization (CMP), a process that uses simultaneous chemical and mechanical action to remove contamination and damage layers from the silicon wafer surface to obtain a mirror-like surface. Chemical mechanical planarization technology uses polishing pads to mechanically polish the surface of silicon wafers. It is usually divided into three steps: rough polishing, medium polishing, and fine polishing. After fine polishing, silicon wafers are usually required to have extremely low surface defects such as surface metal, surface particles, and scratches. Many factors affect the surface particles of polished wafers, such as the polishing process temperature, polishing pressure, and rotation speed. Therefore, the use of different process methods has a significant impact on the surface particles of silicon polished wafers. Fine polishing liquid often has a small particle size and a low removal volume, which cannot completely repair defects caused by rough polishing and medium polishing. In addition, with the reduction of semiconductor feature size and the increase of integration, the requirements for the flatness of the silicon wafer surface are becoming higher and higher. The original polishing process cannot meet the higher flatness requirements. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The technical solution adopted by the present invention is: a silicon wafer polishing process, including rough polishing, medium polishing and fine polishing. After completing the fine polishing, the polishing pad is scrubbed in different areas along the radial direction, and the scrubbing rate of the middle area of the polishing pad is greater than the scrubbing rate of the outer area and the inner area of the polishing pad.
[0005] Furthermore, the scrubbing rate of the middle area of the polishing pad is set to 0.4-1.2 rpm, and the scrubbing rates of the outer area and the inner area of the polishing pad are set to 0.3-0.5 rpm.
[0006] Furthermore, the fine polishing includes a primary fine polishing and a secondary fine polishing, and the abrasive particle size of the polishing liquid used in the primary fine polishing process is larger than the abrasive particle size of the polishing liquid used in the secondary fine polishing process.
[0007] Furthermore, the polishing liquid used in the rough polishing process is the first polishing liquid, the polishing liquid used in the intermediate polishing process is the second polishing liquid, the polishing liquid used in the first fine polishing process is the third polishing liquid, the polishing liquid used in the second fine polishing process is the fourth polishing liquid, and the third polishing liquid is a mixture of the second polishing liquid and the fourth polishing liquid.
[0008] Furthermore, during the coarse grinding process, the pressure per unit area is set to 150-430 g / cm 3 The abrasive of the first polishing liquid is silicon dioxide particles with a particle size of 70 to 80 nm, and the flow rate of the first polishing liquid is set to 8 to 16 L / min.

[0014] The advantages and positive effects of the present invention are as follows: Due to the adoption of the above-mentioned technical solution, the polishing liquid for the first fine polishing process uses a mixture of the polishing liquids for the second fine polishing process, which increases the particle size of the abrasive in the polishing liquid used in the first fine polishing process and improves the amount of abrasive removed during the first fine polishing process, thereby repairing defects caused by the rough polishing and the second fine polishing process and effectively reducing particles on the silicon wafer surface.

[0029] An embodiment of the present invention provides a silicon wafer polishing process, which will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0030] In the description of the embodiments of the present invention, it should be understood that the orientation or positional relationship indicated by the terms "top", "bottom", etc. is based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and is only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present invention. In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly stipulated and limited, the terms "setting" and "connection" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be directly connected, or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, or it can be a communication between the internal parts of two elements. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood based on specific circumstances.
[0031] like Figure 1 As shown, a silicon wafer polishing process according to an embodiment of the present invention includes rough polishing, medium polishing and fine polishing. After each car of silicon wafer polishing is completed, there will be residue on the surface of the polishing pad 1. In order to ensure the cleanliness and polishing effect of the polishing pad 1, a high-pressure water jet is used to brush the polishing pad 1 in different areas, such as Figure 2 As shown in the figure, a high-pressure water jet is connected to a scrubbing arm 2. Driven by a rotating shaft 3, the scrubbing arm 2 rotates above the polishing pad 1, moving the high-pressure water jet radially from the outer edge to the inner edge of the polishing pad 1. When the high-pressure water jet reaches the inner edge of the polishing pad 1, the rotating shaft 3 drives the scrubbing arm 2 to reverse its rotation, moving the high-pressure water jet radially from the inner edge to the outer edge of the polishing pad 1. The polishing pad 1 is radially divided from the outer side to the inner side into an outer region 4, a middle region 5, and an inner region 6. Due to the higher linear velocity on the outer side of the polishing pad 1, the outer region 4 leaves more residue after polishing than the middle region 5, while the inner region 6 is prone to residue accumulation. Therefore, the scrubbing rate of the middle region 5 is greater than that of the outer and inner regions 4 and 6. In other words, the outer and inner regions 4 and 6 use a slower scrubbing rate. The scrubbing rate is represented by the rotation rate of the scrubbing arm 2. A slower rotation rate of the scrubbing arm 2 allows for more thorough scrubbing of the outer and inner regions 4 and 6. The size division of the outer region 4 , the middle region 5 and the inner region 6 is not limited here.
[0032] Specifically, the scrubbing rate of the central region 5 of the polishing pad 1 is set to 0.4-1.2 rpm, and the scrubbing rate of the outer region 4 and the inner region 6 of the polishing pad 1 is set to 0.3-0.5 rpm. Preferably, the scrubbing rates of the outer region 4 and the inner region 6 of the polishing pad 1 are the same.
[0033] Specifically, during the process of scrubbing the polishing pad 1 in different areas, the rotation speed of the large disk is set to 25-50 rpm.
[0034] Specifically, the rough polishing includes the first rough polishing and the second rough polishing. The rough polishing pressure per unit area is set to 150-430 g / cm 3 The polishing liquid used in the rough polishing process is the first polishing liquid. The abrasive in the first polishing liquid is silica particles with a particle size of 70-80 nm. The volume ratio of the silica colloidal finished polishing liquid to deionized water in the first polishing liquid is 1:10-40. The flow rate of the first polishing liquid is set to 8-16 L / min.
[0035] Specifically, the pressure per unit area of the medium polishing is set to 100-250g / cm 3 The polishing liquid used in the intermediate polishing process is the second polishing liquid. The abrasive in the second polishing liquid is silica particles with a particle size of 40-50 nm. The volume ratio of silica colloidal finished polishing liquid to deionized water in the second polishing liquid is 1:25-50. The flow rate of the second polishing liquid is set at 4-8 L / min.
[0036] Specifically, fine polishing includes primary and secondary polishing. The abrasive particle size of the polishing slurry used in the primary polishing process is larger than that used in the secondary polishing process. Traditional fine polishing slurries have smaller abrasive particle sizes, resulting in a low removal rate during fine polishing and an inability to completely repair defects caused by rough and intermediate polishing. Consequently, the silicon wafer's particle size and surface condition are unsatisfactory for subsequent use. Increasing the abrasive particle size in the polishing slurry used in the primary polishing process increases the removal rate during the primary polishing process, thereby repairing defects caused by rough and intermediate polishing.
[0037] Specifically, during the secondary polishing process, the pressure per unit area is set to 100-160 g / cm 3 The polishing liquid used in the secondary fine polishing process is the fourth polishing liquid. The abrasive in the fourth polishing liquid is silicon dioxide particles with a particle size of 32-38 nm. The volume ratio of the silicon dioxide colloidal finished polishing liquid to deionized water in the fourth polishing liquid is 1:30-60. The flow rate of the fourth polishing liquid is set at 1.5-2.5 L / min.
[0038] Specifically, during a fine polishing process, the pressure per unit area is set to 100-250 g / cm 3 The polishing liquid used in the first fine polishing process is the third polishing liquid, which is a mixture of the second polishing liquid and the fourth polishing liquid. The volume ratio of the second polishing liquid to the fourth polishing liquid is set to 1:2-4. The volume ratio of the finished silica colloidal polishing liquid contained in the third polishing liquid to deionized water is 1:30-50. The flow rate of the third polishing liquid is set to 2-6 L / min.
[0039] Specifically, during the polishing process, the disk speed is set at 15-35 rpm, the polishing removal amount is 9-11 μm thinning, the polishing rate is controlled at 0.4-0.8 μm / min, the ice machine temperature is set at 15-25°C, and the polishing liquid temperature is set at 20±5°C.
[0040] Specifically, during the scrubbing of the polishing pad 1 , the rotation speed of the large disk is set to 25-50 rpm.
[0041] Example 1: A silicon wafer polishing process, wherein a wafer to be polished with a diameter of 200 mm is selected, and the silicon wafers are sorted into grades according to a thickness difference of 1 μm using an automatic sorter. After sorting, the wafers are loaded into a special loading basket of a polishing machine, and the wafer mounting operation is performed with the polished surface facing the H surface of the wafer basket. Polishing wax is used during the mounting process, and the wax dripping amount for a single wafer is 1.6±0.1 ml / wax. The mounting equipment is an automatic wafer mounting machine, and the mounted silicon wafers are stored on a ceramic tray loader, waiting for polishing.
