TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application relates to a stable-flow air bag pump and a semiconductor wet process liquid delivery system, and belongs to the technical field of semiconductor manufacturing devices. BACKGROUND
[0002] With the development of large-size silicon wafer and high-density integration of integrated circuits, the tolerance of product yield to defects will be lower and lower. How to reduce wafer defects on the production line and improve product yield is one of the great challenges faced by wafer manufacturing.
[0003] The semiconductor wet process uses chemicals (acid, alkali, solvent, etc.) and liquid such as ultrapure water as process medium to process the wafer surface. The typical representatives are wet etching and wet cleaning. As a basic process of semiconductor manufacturing, wet etching selectively removes the materials on the wafer surface that are not needed by using chemicals, so as to realize correct replication of the mask pattern. Wet cleaning is used throughout the entire semiconductor process to strip the particles and organic matter on the wafer surface by using ultrapure water and ultrapure acid, alkali and solvent chemicals. The above processes all need a pump as the power for delivering the liquid medium. The air bag pump, as a kind of pump without shaft seal, has large flow and low risk of liquid leakage, and is gradually applied to semiconductor production.
[0004] The two pump chambers of the air bag pump pump liquid flow alternately, generating flow pulsation. Such pulsation has adverse effects on semiconductor manufacturing. For example, in the chemical supply system (CDS), the particles clogging in the filter are squeezed out into the downstream contaminated chemical liquid due to the pulsation, or the particles leak out from the joint due to the shaking of the pipeline. In the process of wafer cleaning, the pulsation causes the liquid level of the cleaning tank to fluctuate, the front section of the nozzle to vibrate, and the cleaning efficiency to decrease. In the chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) process, the pulsation can also cause uneven polishing of the wafer, and the particle agglomeration caused by the pulsation can even scratch the wafer surface, reducing the yield. Therefore, it is an urgent problem to be solved in semiconductor production to ensure stable operation of the pump, easy control of liquid flow delivery, and to reduce the introduction of new impurities as much as possible.

[0044] By arranging the cylinder 2 to be composed of the pump shell 3 and the sealing plate 4, and arranging the first connecting rod 6 between the two sealing plates 4, the cylinder 2 is fixed by compression to realize the sealing between the cylinder 2 and the pump head 1; at the same time, through the arrangement, the air bag can be maintained without disassembling the pump shell 3 when the air bag pump is maintained, which can save disassembly time and improve production efficiency.
[0045] As an embodiment, the sealing plate 4 is provided with a first recess 9 on the side close to the pump shell 3, the inner wall of the first recess 9 is provided with a thread, and the end of the pump shell 3 close to the sealing plate 4 is provided with a thread matched with the inner wall of the first recess 9; a gasket is arranged in the first recess 9 to seal the connection between the pump shell 3 and the sealing plate 4.
[0046] The cooperation of the thread connection and the gasket not only improves the sealing performance of the cylinder 2, but also increases the friction between the pump shell 3 and the sealing plate 4, reduces the shaking of the cylinder 2 caused by the stretching and contraction of the air bag, and improves the stability of the air bag pump.
[0047] As an embodiment, the second end of the air bag is provided with a second flange 14, the second flange 14 is provided with a third through hole 15, and the second connecting rod 11 also passes through the third through hole 15, and the third through hole 15 can slide along the second connecting rod 11.
[0048] The second connecting rod 11 fixedly connects the air bag and the pump head 1 through the second through hole 13 and passes through the third through hole 15, and the stretching and contraction track of the air bag pump is limited between the plurality of second connecting rods 11, so that the air bag pump does not swing in the up-down or front-back direction, thereby avoiding the pulse and disturbance to the liquid flow caused by the stretching and contraction of the air bag, and improving the stability of the liquid flow.

[0050] The design of the wind bag end portion spring 16 can provide appropriate reaction force according to the deformation degree of the wind bag, ensure that the wind bag quickly restores to the original state when the air pressure in the gas phase working chamber 7 changes, and improve the working efficiency and response speed of the pump. On the other hand, the wind bag end portion spring 16 can also provide a certain reaction force to the wind bag to avoid overstretching of the wind bag, thereby preventing the reduction of service life due to overstretching.

The sealing plate 4 is provided with a second groove 17 on the inner periphery of the sleeve 18.
[0052] The design of the sleeve 18 can limit the extension and contraction path of the spring 16, so that the spring 16 can keep extending and contracting in a straight line direction, avoiding the arc rebound of the spring 16 due to bias, which affects the stability of the wind bag extension and contraction.
[0053] As an embodiment, the wall thickness of the wind bag gradually increases from the first end to the second end, and the ratio of the maximum thickness to the minimum thickness of the wind bag is 1.4-1.8.
[0054] Specifically, the minimum wall thickness of the wind bag is 1.5 mm, and the maximum wall thickness is 2-2.7 mm.
[0055] The minimum wall thickness is arranged at the first end of the wind bag, where the stress on the wind bag is the smallest, and the smaller wall thickness will not affect the durability of the wind bag. The difference in the wall thickness of the wind bag provides a difference in the sensitivity of the wind bag extension and contraction, which can realize more accurate adjustment of the wind bag extension and contraction.
