Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of semiconductor processing, and concretely relates to a wafer edge finding and debonding mechanism. BACKGROUND
[0002] With the progress of semiconductor technology, the requirement for product performance is higher and higher, and new packaging processes are emerging continuously. When wafers come out of wafer manufacturing plants, the thickness is relatively thick. Due to the requirement for packaging size, the wafers are thinned during packaging to adapt to smaller packaging sizes. In order to protect the circuit layer of the wafer during thinning, a film is pasted on the circuit layer of the wafer to protect the wafer from being scratched and contaminated during thinning and grinding. After the wafer is thinned, the protective film needs to be removed, and the wafer cannot be damaged during removal.
[0003] Before the wafer film is torn, the wafer film needs to be debonded to facilitate the subsequent film tearing action. In the prior art, the wafer after film pasting is placed and recovered manually, which may cause damage to the wafer during the process, and the operation efficiency is not high. Manual calibration of the wafer position is required, which reduces the operation efficiency. Therefore, it is necessary to improve. UTILITARY MODEL

Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, but not all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all the other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of protection of the present application.
[0022] One embodiment of a wafer edge searching and debonding mechanism of the present application is as follows: Figures 1-2As shown, it comprises: a debonding unit, which comprises a debonding shell 31, a debonding window 32 is opened on the debonding shell 31 for the mechanical hand of the wafer carrying mechanical hand to enter, a UV lamp group 33 is arranged in the debonding shell 31 for wafer film debonding; The side of the debonding shell 31 is provided with a working port 35, and the working port 35 is provided with a debonding box door 34, and the debonding box door 34 is opened to put into the instrument to measure the illumination intensity of the UV lamp group 33; At least one heat dissipation hole is formed in the side of the debonding shell 31, and a heat dissipation fan is arranged on the heat dissipation hole for cooling and heat dissipation of the UV lamp group 33; The mechanical hand of the wafer carrying mechanical hand clamps the wafer with wafer film from the debonding window 32 into the debonding shell 31, and places the wafer with wafer film below the UV lamp group 33, and then debonds the wafer film through the UV lamp group 33.
[0023] In an embodiment, as shown in Figure 1 It also comprises a wafer edge finding unit 8, which is arranged on the debonding shell 31. The wafer with wafer film first passes through the wafer edge finding unit 8 to calibrate the wafer gap position and rotate to the preset position, and then is sent to the debonding unit 3 for debonding.
[0024] Specifically, as shown in Figures 1-2 The wafer edge finding unit 8 comprises an edge finding base plate 81, which is arranged below the debonding shell 31. For example, the edge finding base plate 81 is connected to the lower side of the debonding shell 31 through a support rod. A wafer edge finder 82 is arranged on the edge finding base plate 81. The structure and working principle of the wafer edge finder 82 are both prior art, which will not be described here. The wafer carrying mechanical hand unit places the wafer with wafer film on the edge finding chuck 821 of the wafer edge finder 82, and the wafer edge finder 82 starts to position the wafer edge gap position, so as to determine the direction and position of the wafer.
[0025] Further, as shown in Figures 1-2 It also comprises a warping prevention unit 9, which is used to prevent the wafer from warping during the edge finding process. The warping prevention unit 9 is connected to the debonding shell 31 of the debonding unit. The warping prevention unit 9 comprises a warping prevention cylinder 91 connected to the debonding shell 31, and the movable end of the warping prevention cylinder 91 is arranged downward. A warping prevention connecting plate 92 is connected to the movable end of the warping prevention cylinder 91. A plurality of warping prevention pressing rods 93 are arranged on the warping prevention connecting plate 92 at intervals. The bottom end of the warping prevention pressing rod 93 is connected to a warping prevention pressing block 94 made of rubber material. While the wafer edge finder 82 is calibrating, the warping prevention cylinder 91 of the warping prevention unit 9 drives the warping prevention pressing block 94 to press the upper surface of the wafer with wafer film downward, so as to prevent the wafer from warping during the calibration process.
[0026] The beneficial effects of the present application are as follows: the wafer position calibration and wafer film debonding can be automatically performed, and the operation efficiency is improved; the anti-warping mechanism can effectively prevent wafer warping when the wafer is calibrated.
