[0020] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the ventilation system includes a ventilation valve 24, a ventilation duct 26, and a ventilation regulating plate 28; The exhaust valve 24 is located at the top of the frame 34, the exhaust duct 26 is fitted to the frame 34, and the upper end of the exhaust duct 26 is connected to the exhaust valve 24. The ventilation regulating plate 28 is mounted on the frame 34; By adopting the above technical solution, the exhaust system can effectively remove exhaust gases and volatile substances generated during equipment operation, maintaining a clean and stable internal environment.

The lower end of the lifting support 3 is provided with a rotational stabilizing ring 6 for passing through the robotic arm 15; By adopting the above technical solution, efficient and stable transfer of wafers between various systems is achieved. Through the coordinated work of components such as rotary motor 1, rotary support 2, and lifting module 4, the precise movement and operational stability of the robot are ensured, thereby improving production efficiency and product quality.

[0023] like Figure 5 As shown, the mechanical claw retaining ring 10 is installed on the lower end of the robotic arm 15 by bolts; The mechanical claw retaining ring 10 is fixed to the upper surface of the mechanical claw palm plate 11 by bolts. Mechanical fingers 12 are provided at equal angles on the lower surface of the mechanical claw palm plate 11. A wafer fixing nut 13 is threaded onto the lower end of the mechanical fingers 12. The robotic arm slot cover 31 is located on the robotic arm 15; The above technical solution can firmly fix and support 4-inch wafers. Through the cooperation of mechanical claw fixing ring 10, mechanical claw palm plate 11 and mechanical fingers 12, as well as the use of wafer fixing nut 13, the stability of the wafer during film formation and drying is ensured, avoiding wafer shaking and damage, and improving the uniformity and quality of film formation.

[0024] like Figure 1As shown, a fluorescent lamp 30 mounted on a frame 34 is provided above the automatic slot cover 32; By adopting the above technical solution, the automatic tank cover 32 can close the tank when not in operation, preventing the liquid from being contaminated and volatilized. This not only extends the service life of the liquid but also reduces environmental pollution and improves the safety and environmental friendliness of the equipment.

[0025] The inner film-forming groove 16 is made of quartz steel, and the outer film-forming groove 17 is made of PP material. Using the above technical solution, the inner film-forming tank 16 is made of quartz steel, which has good high temperature resistance and chemical stability, and can ensure uniform heating and stable distribution of the film-forming liquid. The outer film-forming tank 17 is made of PP material, which has good corrosion resistance and lightweight characteristics, further improving the stability and service life of the equipment.

[0026] like Figure 2 As shown, a control panel 27 for operation is provided on the outside of the frame 34, and a front maintenance door 29 is installed at the bottom of the frame 34. By adopting the above technical solution, operators can easily operate and monitor the equipment, thereby improving the automation level and ease of operation of the equipment.

[0027] First, turn on the heater 18 in advance and pour the film-forming solution into the film-forming inner tank 16 to heat the temperature of the film-forming inner tank 16 to 50°C, ensuring that the film-forming solution is heated evenly. Then, inject water into the interior of the film-forming outer tank 17 through the outer tank inlet pipe 21 until it reaches the position of the frame 34, and then stop the injection. The 4-inch wafer 14 is fixed below the mechanical finger 12 by the wafer fixing nut 13 to ensure that the wafer is horizontal and has minimal contact with the mechanical claw, so as to avoid affecting the film thickness. The horizontal module 5 controls the horizontal direction of the 4-inch wafer 14, while the vertical module 4 controls its vertical direction. Through their combined operation, the 4-inch wafer 14 is moved above the film deposition system, ensuring it is directly above the film deposition tank 16. The ultrasonic generator 25 is then activated, causing the ultrasonic transducer 20 to operate, emitting ultrasonic waves at a frequency of 80kHz to eliminate air bubbles in the film deposition solution and prevent pitting in the film. The vertical module 4 ensures the 4-inch wafer 14 is stably fed into the deposition system. The wafer 14 is placed in the film-forming tank 16, ensuring that it is completely immersed in the film-forming solution. The rotary motor 1 is turned on to make the 4-inch wafer 14 rotate at a speed of 200 r / min. After rotating for 30 seconds, the rotation is stopped. Then, the 4-inch wafer 14 is slowly lifted out by the lifting module 4 to ensure that the film-forming solution on the wafer surface is evenly distributed. When the 4-inch wafer 14 is lowered to 16, the opening is covered by the robotic arm tank cover 31 to prevent the solution from splashing out. At the same time, when not in use, the automatic tank cover 32 will also cover the opening to prevent solution contamination. Then, the 4-inch wafer 14 is moved to the drying system via the horizontal module 5. With the lifting module 4, the 4-inch wafer 14 is positioned in the center of the drying tank 22. The drying tank outlet 19 is opened, allowing IPA liquid to enter the drying tank 22 through the outlet 19 and soak over the mechanical gripper for 60 seconds. During the soaking process, ensure that the IPA liquid completely covers the wafer surface to remove any residual moisture that may have remained during the film formation process. The IPA liquid is then drained from the outlet 19 to ensure that there is no residue in the drying tank 22. Then, hot nitrogen is introduced into the drying tank 22 through the nitrogen drying inlet pipe 23 to maintain the temperature at 50°C. Then, the rotary motor 1 is turned on to rotate the 4-inch wafer 14 at a speed of 400 r / min for 30 seconds before stopping. During the rotation, the nitrogen passes through the wafer surface and removes moisture, ensuring that the drying process is efficient and without damage. Finally, the 4-inch wafer 14 is removed by lifting module 4 and horizontal module 5, the wafer fixing nut 13 is unscrewed, the 4-inch wafer 14 is removed, and then other instruments are used for measurement, such as the uniformity measurement point location diagram. The peeling phenomenon can be observed by visually inspecting the state of the film, and the drying state can be observed by observing whether there are water droplets on the surface. The formula for measuring COV is as follows:
