Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of molecular pump testing, and more specifically, to a method, system, and application for detecting the vibration value of a magnetically levitated molecular pump turbine at high temperatures. Background Technology
[0002] When magnetically levitated molecular pumps are used in semiconductor etching equipment, they must possess anti-deposition performance. To address this, many manufacturers have developed anti-deposition magnetically levitated molecular pumps. The key to this anti-deposition performance lies in actively heating the components within the pump that come into contact with the process gas (such as turbine blades and stator), maintaining their temperature above the sublimation temperature (or condensation temperature) of the process byproducts, ensuring they are always drawn away in gaseous form.
[0003] According to T / CGMA0603-2021, "Stability and Environmental Performance Classification Specification for Magnetic Levitation Molecular Pumps," the radial displacement vibration value of the turbine rotor is one of the key indicators of a molecular pump. However, the above vibration value is the result of the turbine operating at room temperature. In semiconductor etching processes, however, the turbine operates at very high temperatures, and temperature has a significant impact on the vibration value. Therefore, for magnetic levitation molecular pumps used in semiconductor etching equipment, in addition to requiring the vibration value at room temperature to be less than a threshold, the vibration value at high temperatures under normal operating conditions should also be limited (with a limit of 0.05 μm).
[0004] Regarding vibration testing at high temperatures, the following explanations will cover the testing fixtures and the testing process.
[0005] (1) Testing fixtures.
[0006] The radial displacement vibration values of the turbine at both room temperature and high temperature can be measured using the testing fixture CN119063986A. This involves installing a turbine temperature sensor, X-axis and Y-axis vibration sensors on the upper end face (the vibration value of the upper end face is generally greater than that of the lower end face, so only the vibration sensor on the upper end face needs to be retained), and a dynamic balancing analyzer on the molecular pump that has already been stress-relieved.
[0007] (2) Testing process.
[0008] A flow rate of 500 sccm to 1000 sccm is applied to the magnetically levitated molecular pump after the turbine stress has been removed. Under the impact of the gas, the temperature of the turbine gradually rises.
[0009] At the above gas flow rate, the effect of aerodynamic pressure on the radial displacement of the rotor can be basically ignored (aerodynamic pressure only has a significant effect under high flow rate).
[0010] Figure 1The turbine temperature-time curve is shown. It reveals that the turbine temperature rises very slowly. This indicates that the vibration test time for the magnetic levitation molecular pump at high temperatures is excessively long. Summary of the Invention

It can eliminate the testing time of high temperature dynamic balancing test, and the vibration value of the turbine at high temperature can be known by performing dynamic balancing test at room temperature.
[0023] (2) This application proposes two schemes.
[0024] (2.1) The theoretical basis of the first scheme is as follows: (δ) T -δ T0 ) / (T-T0)=δ T0 ·α,δ T δ T0 These represent the vibration values at temperature T and room temperature T0, respectively.

[0025] (2.2) The theoretical basis of the second scheme is as follows: δ T =δ T0 ·α·T+(δ T0 -δ T0 ·α·T0). From the above equation, it can be seen that there is a linear relationship between the vibration value and temperature. That is, by performing a linear fit with temperature as the independent variable and vibration value as the dependent variable, δ can be obtained. T0 • α. Compared to the first approach, which uses only two data points per molecular pump in the dataset, the second approach utilizes all information from each molecular pump in the dataset. This is based on the vibration value δ of the magnetically levitated molecular pump under test at T0. T0 Solve for its vibration value δ at time T. T : ; Where, δ T0-i k i It is the vibration value of the i-th molecular pump among n identical magnetic levitation molecular pumps at T0, and the slope of the temperature-vibration value is obtained by linear fitting.

[0029] Figure 3 This is a typical temperature-vibration relationship curve for a molecular pump turbine. Detailed Implementation
[0030] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the technical solutions of this application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with specific embodiments and corresponding drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, and not all of them. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0031] <Theoretical Analysis 1> For the rotor structure of a magnetically levitated molecular pump, its vibration value can be understood as follows: (1) The radial displacement vibration of the rotor originates from the imbalance, that is, there is a small distance between the geometric center O of the rotor and the center of mass A. In other words, the centrifugal force caused by the mass eccentricity is the source of the radial displacement vibration of the rotor.
[0032] (2) The rotor structure of the magnetic levitation molecular pump can be simplified as follows: Figure 2 The structure shown can be approximated as a ring-shaped columnar structure.
[0033] As the temperature rises, the centroid shifts due to the linear changes in the material, meaning that the imbalance gradually increases with rising temperature.
[0034] The imbalance quantity r at temperature T 1-T It can be represented as: r 1-T =r 1-T0 +r 1-T0 ·α·(T-T0); Where T0 represents room temperature, α represents the coefficient of linear expansion of the material, and r 1-T0 This represents the imbalance quantity measured at room temperature.
[0035] The above formula can be transformed into: (r) 1-T -r 1-T0 ) / (T-T0)=r 1-T0 ·α.
[0036] The vibration value δ is directly proportional to the unbalance amount r1 (within the test range below 100°C, the effects of equivalent mass, rotational speed, rotor stiffness, etc., on the vibration value remain unchanged, so only the effect of the unbalance amount r1 needs to be considered), therefore: (δ) T -δ T0 ) / (T-T0)=δ T0 ·α; δ T δ T0 These represent the vibration values at temperature T and room temperature T0, respectively.
[0037] For magnetically levitated molecular pumps of the same type, α can be considered the same.
[0038] <Example 1> Based on the understanding from theoretical analysis one, the technical solution of the embodiment is as follows: A method for detecting the vibration value of a magnetically levitated molecular pump turbine at high temperature, which is used to detect the vibration value of the turbine at any temperature T, includes the following steps: S100, Obtain the vibration value δ of the magnetic levitation molecular pump under test at T0. T0 It can be obtained using existing technologies such as CN119063986A; S200, obtain the temperature vibration value dataset Q of the same model of magnetic levitation molecular pump under test. Q records the vibration values of n molecular pumps of the same model at different temperatures. Obtain the vibration values of n molecular pumps at temperatures T0 and T from dataset Q. Let the vibration value of any i-th molecular pump at temperatures T0 and T be denoted as δ. T-i δ T0-i ; S300, Solve for the vibration value δ of the magnetically levitated molecular pump under test at temperature T. T : .
[0039] <Theoretical Analysis II> From theoretical analysis one, we can obtain: δ T =δ T0 +δ T0 ·α·(T-T0).
[0040] The above equation can be further transformed into: δ T =δ T0 ·α·T+(δ T0 -δT0 ·α·T0).
[0041] In other words, there is a linear relationship between vibration value and temperature, which allows us to make full use of the information in the dataset. Figure 3 Typical temperature-vibration relationship curves for the CXF320 / 3001CV magnetic levitation molecular pump are presented, showing a linear relationship.
[0042] <Example 2> A method for detecting the vibration value of a magnetically levitated molecular pump turbine at high temperature, which is used to detect the vibration value of the turbine at any temperature T, includes the following steps: S100, Obtain the vibration value δ of the magnetic levitation molecular pump under test at T0.
