Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of chemical mechanical grinding, in particular to an adsorption film used for a silicon carbide chemical mechanical grinding and polishing head. Background Art

[0002] Silicon carbide is relatively hard, approaching that of natural diamond. During chemical mechanical polishing, silicon carbide wafers experience insufficient pressure distribution at the edges, resulting in insufficient edge grinding rates. Excessive grinding pressure can lead to over-grinding of other areas.

[0003] CN117283449A discloses an adsorption film, a polishing head, and a chemical mechanical polishing apparatus. The adsorption film comprises a first surface and a second surface facing each other. The first surface of the adsorption film has a plurality of grooves arranged in a honeycomb pattern. Each groove is non-circular. When the adsorption film is applied to a wafer surface, it can effectively control the flatness of the wafer surface, reduce surface defects, and improve process stability.

[0004] CN214418504U discloses an adsorption film for mechanical chemical grinding, which is a concave circular structure; a first annular fold, a second annular fold, a first annular recess and a second recess are provided on the bottom surface of the concave circular structure; a first transverse portion, a second transverse portion and a boss are provided on the side surface of the concave structure from the top to the bottom end; the first annular fold includes a first annular vertical portion provided perpendicular to the bottom surface and a first annular horizontal portion connected to the first vertical portion, and the first annular horizontal portion is parallel to the bottom surface; the first annular recess is a tapered structure; and the second recess is a tapered structure.

[0005] CN208663469U discloses a polishing head and chemical mechanical polishing device. The polishing head comprises a main body, an adsorption membrane and a retaining ring, both located on the side of the main body facing the polishing pad, with a gap between the retaining ring and the adsorption membrane. The main body also comprises a pipe embedded in the main body. The surface of the main body facing the adsorption membrane has at least one opening, which is connected to the pipe. Cleaning fluid is ejected from the opening through the pipe to clean any polishing fluid remaining in the gap. This avoids scratches on wafers caused by polishing fluid crystals falling onto the polishing pad surface, thereby improving the quality of chemical mechanical polishing.

[0006] CN221560920U discloses a hole adsorption film device for semiconductor grinding equipment, which includes an upper shell, a bottom ring, a balance plate, a vacuum tube and a silicone adsorption film. The vacuum tube is connected to the balance plate and an air hole is opened on the vacuum tube. The balance plate is provided with an adsorption hole. The side wall of the balance plate is provided with a flange, an elastic support pad is attached to the flange, a lining ring is provided on the outside of the balance plate, the silicone adsorption film cover is provided at the bottom of the balance plate, and its edge passes through between the balance plate and the lining ring. The edge of the silicone adsorption film is provided in a convex ring. An upper annular groove is provided on the upper shell, and a lower annular groove is provided on the bottom ring. The upper shell and the bottom ring are connected by a circle of 12 bolts. The convex ring is clamped between the upper annular groove and the lower annular groove. The vacuum tube is connected and passes through the top of the upper shell. The vacuum tube is externally connected to an exhaust device.

[0007] However, the above-mentioned adsorption film still has problems such as the size of the sealing rib being insufficient from the outer edge, resulting in insufficient pressure control on the outer silicon carbide sheet. Utility Model Content

[0008] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, the utility model provides an adsorption film for a silicon carbide chemical mechanical grinding and polishing head. By rationally designing the position of the sealing ribs, an adsorption film with four chambers is formed, which ensures that the grinding rate at the edge of the silicon carbide wafer is consistent with that in the center, thereby improving the polishing effect of the silicon carbide wafer.

[0009] To achieve this purpose, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0010] The utility model provides an adsorption film for a silicon carbide chemical mechanical grinding and polishing head, wherein the adsorption film for the silicon carbide chemical mechanical grinding and polishing head comprises a bottom surface, an outer side wall and a sealing rib; the outer side wall is arranged at the maximum diameter of the bottom surface; the number of the sealing ribs is 3; the sealing ribs are arranged on the bottom surface, and adjacent sealing ribs and the outer side wall form 4 chambers.

[0011] The adsorption membrane of the silicon carbide chemical mechanical grinding and polishing head described in this utility model is divided into four chambers by sealing ribs. During use, the chambers are inflated, causing the bottom surface to expand evenly, thereby applying downward pressure to the silicon carbide wafer. This precisely controls the polishing rate at the edge of the silicon carbide wafer to be consistent with the polishing rate at the center during chemical mechanical grinding and polishing, achieving efficient grinding of the silicon carbide wafer. The adsorption membrane in this utility model can be 6 inches in diameter and is suitable for chemical mechanical grinding and polishing of silicon carbide wafers with a diameter of 150 mm.

[0012] The edge effect is significant when grinding silicon carbide wafers. Excessively large corner radius can cause vertical pressure to be distributed laterally, leading to problems with machining and over-grinding at right angles. The adsorption membrane used in the silicon carbide chemical mechanical polishing head of this utility model has an R angle of R0.3 to R1.5 on the bottom edge, resolving the problem of existing adsorption membranes with large bottom corner radius and insufficient pressure on the edges.

[0013] Preferably, the adsorption film used for the silicon carbide chemical mechanical grinding and polishing head is a silica gel adsorption film, which can effectively adsorb the silicon carbide wafer without damaging the silicon carbide wafer.

[0014] Preferably, the thickness of the bottom surface is 0.5 to 1.5 mm, for example, it can be 0.5 mm, 0.7 mm, 0.9 mm, 1 mm, 1.2 mm, 1.4 mm or 1.5 mm, etc., but is not limited to the listed values, and other unlisted values ​​within the numerical range are also applicable.

[0015] Preferably, the outer side wall and the sealing rib are at the same height.

[0016] Preferably, the outer side wall and the sealing rib have the same shape, both comprising an annular vertical portion and an annular horizontal portion.

[0017] The present invention does not impose any specific restrictions on whether the annular horizontal portion of the outer side wall and the sealing rib faces the center of the circle or the outside, and can be matched with the adsorption membrane assembly component according to actual needs.

[0018] Preferably, the height of the annular vertical portion is 0.5 to 20 mm, for example, it can be 0.5 mm, 1 mm, 2 mm, 5 mm, 10 mm, 15 mm or 20 mm, etc., but is not limited to the listed values, and other unlisted values ​​within this numerical range are also applicable.

[0019] In the present invention, the height of the annular vertical portion is preferably 0.5 to 20 mm. This allows the adsorption film to effectively absorb and pressurize the silicon carbide wafer during chemical mechanical polishing. If the height of the annular vertical portion is too small or too large, the adsorption film's ability to absorb the silicon carbide wafer will be reduced, thereby affecting the polishing effect of the silicon carbide wafer.

[0020] Preferably, the thickness of the outer wall is 0.5 to 2 mm, for example, it can be 0.5 mm, 0.6 mm, 0.8 mm, 1 mm, 1.3 mm, 1.5 mm or 2 mm, etc., but it is not limited to the listed values, and other unlisted values ​​within the numerical range are also applicable.

[0021] The utility model preferably has a thickness of the outer side wall of 0.5 to 2 mm, which solves the problem that the existing adsorption membrane side wall is not thick enough, resulting in a partial lateral pressure loss of the adsorption membrane during inflation.

[0022] Preferably, from the outside to the inside of the bottom surface are respectively the first sealing rib, the second sealing rib and the third sealing rib; the outer side wall and the first sealing rib form a first chamber.

[0023] Preferably, the diameter of the first chamber is 115 mm to 132 mm, for example, it can be 115 mm, 118 mm, 120 mm, 125 mm, 127 mm, 130 mm or 132 mm, etc., but is not limited to the listed values, and other unlisted values ​​within the numerical range are also applicable.

[0024] Preferably, the first sealing rib and the second sealing rib form a second chamber.

[0025] Preferably, the diameter of the second chamber is 78 mm to 114 mm, for example, it can be 78 mm, 80 mm, 90 mm, 100 mm, 105 mm, 110 mm or 114 mm, etc., but is not limited to the listed values, and other unlisted values ​​within the numerical range are also applicable.

[0026] Preferably, the second sealing rib and the third sealing rib form a third chamber.

[0027] Preferably, the diameter of the third chamber is 39 mm to 77 mm, for example, it can be 39 mm, 40 mm, 50 mm, 60 mm, 70 mm, 75 mm or 77 mm, etc., but is not limited to the listed values, and other unlisted values ​​within the numerical range are also applicable.

[0028] Preferably, the third sealing rib forms a fourth chamber.

[0029] Preferably, the diameter of the fourth chamber is 1 mm to 38 mm, for example, it can be 1 mm, 3 mm, 5 mm, 10 mm, 20 mm, 30 mm or 38 mm, etc., but is not limited to the listed values, and other unlisted values ​​within the numerical range are also applicable.

[0030] The method for using the adsorption film for a silicon carbide chemical mechanical grinding and polishing head provided by the utility model includes:

[0031] (1) installing the adsorption film for the silicon carbide chemical mechanical polishing head onto the polishing head to form an empty cavity inside;

[0032] (2) The cavity is inflated, the bottom surface expands evenly, and pressure is applied downward to the silicon carbide wafer.
