Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of plasma etching machine especially relates to a plasma etching machine shield cover heating structure. BACKGROUND
[0002] The plasma etching machine is a kind of equipment for the field such as semiconductor manufacturing, micro electro mechanical system (MEMS) manufacturing, it is etched to material by generating plasma to realize high-precision pattern transfer and microstructure manufacturing.
[0003] In the plasma etching machine, certain proportion gas (such as fluorine gas, chlorine gas and other reactive gas and inert gas such as argon mixed gas) is usually introduced into reaction chamber. High-frequency electric field is applied by radio frequency (RF) power supply, and gas molecules are ionized to generate plasma. For example, when etching silicon wafer, CF4 (carbon tetrafluoride) gas can be used, under the action of radio frequency electric field, CF4 molecule will decompose into CF3 +, F- and other active ions and free radicals, and active ions and free radicals in plasma will react with the surface of the etched material. Taking the etching of silicon as an example, F- ion will react with silicon to generate volatile SiF4 gas, thereby removing silicon atoms from the material surface. At the same time, the ions in the plasma also physically bombard the material surface, accelerating the etching process and improving the anisotropy (i.e. the difference between the vertical etching rate and the horizontal etching rate) of etching.
[0004] The waste gas generated by etching is continuously discharged, and the whole etching process ensures the sealing of the reaction chamber. The peripheral wall of the chamber is called shield cover. The inner wall of the shield cover needs to be kept at a certain temperature interval during the reaction process to prevent the waste gas from condensing on the inner wall before being discharged. The existing heating method sets an electric heating ring outside the shield cover. However, such an exposed electric heating ring has poor safety, and the control effect of the shield cover temperature is not ideal due to the thick thickness of the shield cover.
