Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of a device specially suitable for processing wafers in the manufacturing or processing process of semiconductor or electric solid devices or components, in particular to a cup-type splash shield calibration tool. Background Art

[0002] In the coating and developing machine, the rotating unit includes a suction cup and a cup (also called a cup-type splash guard). The suction cup is used to absorb the wafer and drive the wafer to rotate after absorption. Photoresist and developer are coated on the rotating wafer. Under the action of centrifugal force, the photoresist and developer are spun from the center of the wafer to the edge of the wafer and finally thrown out from the edge of the wafer. The cup-type splash guard can block the thrown chemical liquid and collect it. In the process of spin coating, the suction cup rotates to stir the air between the suction cup and the cup-type splash guard.

[0003] There are strict requirements on the relative position relationship between the suction cup and the cup-type splash guard. If the suction cup is too close to the cup-type splash guard, the chemical liquid will splash onto the inner wall of the cup-type splash guard and then splash back onto the wafer surface, affecting the coating quality of the wafer. In addition, when the position relationship between the suction cup and the cup-type splash guard does not meet the requirements, the air flow between the two will not meet the requirements, resulting in the wafer coating uniformity not being able to meet the requirements.

[0004] When installing the rotating unit in the prior art, the suction cup is first fixed, and then the cup-shaped splash guard is installed and fixed at a certain height relative to the suction cup. In the prior art, a ruler is used to determine the installation height. The suction cup and the inner wall of the cup-shaped splash guard are not in the same horizontal plane or the same vertical direction. When using a ruler for measurement, accurate measurement can only be made in the horizontal direction or the vertical direction. In the other direction, it is necessary to measure by visual inspection or find another ruler, and the measurement error is large. Utility Model Content

The position of the cup-shaped splash guard 1 in the vertical direction can be adjusted (the mechanism for driving the cup-shaped splash guard 1 to move vertically is not shown in the figure), and includes a mounting frame 3 and a distance detection member 4 mounted on the mounting frame 3. The mounting frame 3 has a contact portion 300 that contacts the suction cup 2.
