TECHNICAL FIELD

[0039] Figure 1 A structural schematic diagram of a semiconductor deposition chamber provided by an embodiment of the utility model is shown in the figure. Figure 2 A structural schematic diagram of a first pumping ring in a semiconductor deposition chamber provided by an embodiment of the utility model is shown in the figure. Figure 3 A structural schematic diagram corresponding to another working state of a semiconductor deposition chamber provided by an embodiment of the utility model is shown in the figure.
[0040] According to some embodiments of the utility model, the utility model embodiment provides a semiconductor deposition chamber, by setting a pumping ring component, a first moving component and a second moving component in the deposition chamber, wherein the pumping ring component comprises a first pumping ring and a second pumping ring, the first pumping ring is connected with the first moving component, the second pumping ring is connected with the second moving component, and the first aperture of the first hole of the first pumping ring is smaller than the second aperture of the second hole of the second pumping ring, so that different pumping rings can be used in different processes, so as to flexibly adjust and adapt to various processes, improve work efficiency.
[0041] Reference Figures 1 to 3 The semiconductor deposition chamber comprises a shell 100, and a cavity 101 is formed inside the shell 100. The cavity 101 is the main place for accommodating devices and thin film deposition reactions.
[0042] The semiconductor deposition chamber includes a gas inlet component 102 located in the cavity 101. The gas inlet component 102 is generally used to provide source gas for wafer deposition. The gas inlet component 102 includes a gas inlet (not labeled) located outside the housing 100 and a showerhead (not labeled) located in the cavity 101 for uniformly guiding the source gas.
[0043] In some embodiments, the gas inlet component 102 further includes a gas distribution structure for guiding the source gas from a small number of gas inlets to a large number of holes of the showerhead and improving the uniformity of the source gas flow.
[0044] In some embodiments, the gas distribution structure includes a plurality of mutually isolated shower cavities arranged in a horizontal direction. The gas inlets and the shower cavities are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence and have consistent distribution and consistent topography of the relative contact surfaces. The outer side surfaces of the gas inlets and the shower cavities are arc surfaces with a central angle of 90°. Different gas supply systems supply reaction gas to the corresponding shower cavities through the gas inlets.
[0045] In some embodiments, the materials of the showerhead and the gas distribution structure are preferably the same, such as metal materials, ceramics, quartz, and other corrosion-resistant materials that do not react with the reaction gas and are not corroded. The surfaces of the structures can be coated as needed, such as anodized.
[0046] The semiconductor deposition chamber includes a gas inlet component 102 located in the cavity 101. The gas inlet component 102 is generally used to provide source gas for wafer deposition. The gas inlet component 102 includes a gas inlet (not labeled) located outside the housing 100 and a showerhead (not labeled) located in the cavity 101 for uniformly guiding the source gas.
[0047] The gas ring is mainly used to control the gas flow inside the cavity, extract the by-products, and optimize the uniformity of film deposition. When the cavity is self-cleaning, the gas ring plays a role in extracting the reaction gas (such as fluoride).
[0048] The gas extraction ring can be a ceramic gas extraction ring, which is more resistant to acid and alkali corrosion. During semiconductor processing, the service life is longer. Secondly, the ceramic gas extraction ring is not easy to react with other substances, will not leave fine particles and charged charges on the contacted objects, will not produce metal ions, and will not contaminate semiconductor parts; during the heat treatment of the semiconductor, the ceramic gas extraction ring is less deformed by heat, reducing the deformation of the semiconductor parts during heat treatment.
[0049] It should be noted that the number of first holes 121 in the first gas extraction ring 111 and the first diameter d1 of the first holes 121 are not limited by the present application, and can be set by those skilled in the art according to specific needs, but it is necessary to ensure that the gas flow from the inside of the chamber to the outside is uniform and stable when the gas extraction pump extracts through the gas extraction ring, and that local combustion phenomena caused by the accumulation of high energy can be avoided when high-energy ions pass through the chamber. For example, the first gas extraction ring 111 has 12-48 circular gas extraction holes, and the diameter of the holes ranges from 1mm to 20mm.
[0050] Similarly, the number of second holes 122 in the second gas extraction ring 112 and the second diameter d2 of the second holes 122 are not limited by the present application, and can be set by those skilled in the art according to specific needs, but it is necessary to ensure that the gas flow from the inside of the chamber to the outside is uniform and stable when the gas extraction pump extracts through the gas extraction ring, and that local combustion phenomena caused by the accumulation of high energy can be avoided when high-energy ions pass through the chamber. For example, the second gas extraction ring 112 has 5-30 circular gas extraction holes, and the diameter of the holes ranges from 5mm to 48mm.
[0051] In some embodiments, the inner walls of the first holes 121 and the second holes 122 are rounded or the first holes 121 and the second holes 122 can be chamfered to connect the first gas extraction ring 111, the second gas extraction ring 112 and the gas extraction pump pipeline. When the gas extraction pump is working, a negative pressure is generated, and the gas in the space is uniformly extracted through the small holes on the circumference of the gas extraction ring, so that the chamber reaches a specified negative pressure value. During the thin film deposition process, when high-energy ions are introduced into the chamber, the rounded corners on the inside of the gas extraction ring can avoid local combustion phenomena caused by the accumulation of high energy.
[0052] In some embodiments, the first gas extraction ring 111 and the second gas extraction ring 112 are coaxially arranged, i.e. the height of the first gas extraction ring 111 is the same as that of the second gas extraction ring 112, and the top surfaces of the first gas extraction ring 111 and the second gas extraction ring 112 are flush. In this way, a fixing structure (not labeled) can be provided at the end of the first gas extraction ring 111 and the second gas extraction ring 112, so as to form an annular gas extraction channel between the first gas extraction ring 111, the second gas extraction ring 112 and the fixing structure.
[0053] ReferenceFigure 1 The semiconductor deposition chamber further comprises an exhaust port 103. The distribution density of the second holes 122 near the exhaust port 103 is less than the distribution density of the second holes 122 far from the exhaust port 103. The gas flow rate is fast in the region near the exhaust port 103 and is slow in the region far from the exhaust port 103. By changing the distribution density of the second holes 122 near the exhaust port 103 and the distribution density of the second holes 122 far from the exhaust port 103, the distribution density of the second holes 122 near the exhaust port 103 is made to be small, thereby reducing the gas flow rate on this side, increasing the gas flow rate on the side far from the exhaust port 103, and improving the uniformity of the gas flow field on the wafer surface.
[0054] Similarly, the distribution density of the first holes 121 near the exhaust port 103 is less than the distribution density of the first holes 121 far from the exhaust port 103. The gas flow rate is fast in the region near the exhaust port 103 and is slow in the region far from the exhaust port 103. By changing the distribution density of the first holes 121 near the exhaust port 103 and the distribution density of the first holes 121 far from the exhaust port 103, the distribution density of the first holes 121 near the exhaust port 103 is made to be small, thereby reducing the gas flow rate on this side, increasing the gas flow rate on the side far from the exhaust port 103, and improving the uniformity of the gas flow field on the wafer surface.
[0055] In some embodiments, the distance between two adjacent first holes 121 in the plurality of first holes 121 of the first exhaust ring 111 is inversely proportional to the distance between the two adjacent first holes 121 and the exhaust port 103. By setting the distance between two adjacent first holes 121 in the plurality of first holes 121 of the first exhaust ring 111 to be inversely proportional to the distance between the two adjacent first holes 121 and the exhaust port 103, the distribution density of the first holes 121 near the exhaust port 103 can be made to be less than the distribution density of the first holes 121 far from the exhaust port 103, thereby reducing the gas flow rate of the first holes 121 near the exhaust port 103, increasing the gas flow rate on the side far from the exhaust port 103, and improving the uniformity of the gas flow field on the wafer surface.
[0056] In some embodiments, the first hole diameter d1 of the plurality of first holes 121 of the first exhaust ring 111 is inversely proportional to the distance between the first hole diameter d1 and the exhaust port 103. By setting the first hole diameter d1 of the first holes 121 in the first exhaust ring 111 to be inversely proportional to the distance between the first hole diameter d1 and the exhaust port 103, the distribution density of the first holes 121 near the exhaust port 103 can be made to be less than the distribution density of the first holes 121 far from the exhaust port 103, thereby reducing the gas flow rate of the first holes 121 near the exhaust port 103, increasing the gas flow rate on the side far from the exhaust port 103, and improving the uniformity of the gas flow field on the wafer surface.
[0057] Specifically, in one embodiment, the distance between two adjacent first holes 121 of the first plurality of holes 121 of the first pumping ring 111 is inversely proportional to the distance between the two adjacent first holes 121 and the pumping port 103. In another embodiment, the diameter of the first plurality of holes 121 of the first pumping ring 111 is inversely proportional to the distance between the first plurality of holes 121 and the pumping port 103. In yet another embodiment, the distance between two adjacent first holes 121 of the first plurality of holes 121 of the first pumping ring 111 is inversely proportional to the distance between the two adjacent first holes 121 and the pumping port 103, and the diameter of the first plurality of holes 121 of the first pumping ring 111 is inversely proportional to the distance between the first plurality of holes 121 and the pumping port 103.
[0058] Similarly, the distance between two adjacent second holes 122 of the second plurality of holes 122 of the second pumping ring 112 is inversely proportional to the distance between the two adjacent second holes 122 and the pumping port 103, and / or the diameter of the second plurality of holes 122 of the second pumping ring 112 is inversely proportional to the distance between the second plurality of holes 122 and the pumping port 103.
[0059] Continuing to refer to Figure 1 , the first pumping ring 111 and the second pumping ring 112 have a first cavity 123 therebetween. The gas flow rate is balanced through the first cavity 123, thereby making the gas more uniform.
[0060] In some embodiments, the first holes 121 and the second holes 122 overlap in a radial direction X. The radial direction X refers to the direction of the first pumping ring 111 or the second pumping ring 112 pointing to the center of the circle. The first holes 121 and the second holes 122 overlap in the vertical direction.
[0061] In some embodiments, the first holes 121 and the second holes 122 overlap in a radial direction X. The radial direction X refers to the direction of the first pumping ring 111 or the second pumping ring 112 pointing to the center of the circle. The first holes 121 and the second holes 122 overlap in the vertical direction.
[0062] Figure 4 Another structural schematic view of a semiconductor deposition chamber according to an embodiment of the present application.
[0063] Referring to Figure 4 , the first holes 121 and the second holes 122 are misaligned in the radial direction X. The first holes 121 and the second holes 122 are misaligned with each other, so that the gas passing through the first holes 121 is drawn away by the second pumping ring 112 via the first pumping ring 111 and the first cavity 123, thereby increasing the length of the flow path and making the gas flow rate more uniform.
[0064] In some embodiments, the thickness of the first pumping ring 111 ranges from 0.5 cm to 5 cm. The first pumping ring 111 has a larger thickness, so as to avoid the problem of breakage in actual use, and the flow channel of the first pumping ring 111 is also more appropriate, so as to improve the uniformity of the flow rate of the gas.
[0065] The thickness of the first pumping ring 111 can be 0.5 cm, 0.8 cm, 1.3 cm, 1.6 cm, 2.1 cm, 2.9 cm, 3.6 cm, 4.3 cm, or 5 cm.
[0066] Similarly, the thickness of the second pumping ring 112 ranges from 0.5 cm to 5 cm. The thickness of the second pumping ring 112 can be 0.5 cm, 0.8 cm, 1.3 cm, 1.6 cm, 2.1 cm, 2.9 cm, 3.6 cm, 4.3 cm, or 5 cm.
[0067] With reference to Figure 1 , the semiconductor deposition chamber comprises a first moving part 131 connected to the first pumping ring 111, and the first moving part 131 is used to move the first pumping ring 111 up and down along the vertical direction.
[0068] The first moving part 131 can be a telescopic rod or any movable part. The first moving part 131 can be driven by a gas pump, a gear, or any driving structure to be in different positions under specified parameters. For example Figure 1 , the first position shown and Figure 3 , the second position shown. When the first moving part 131 is in the first position, the pumping ring corresponding to the pumping port 103 is mainly the first pumping ring 111, and then the pumping pump pumps the cavity 101 with the size of the first hole 121 corresponding to the first pumping ring 111. When the second moving part 132 is in the second position, the pumping ring corresponding to the pumping port 103 is mainly the second pumping ring 112, and then the pumping pump pumps the cavity 101 with the size of the second hole 122 corresponding to the second pumping ring 112.
[0069] With reference to Figure 1 , the semiconductor deposition chamber comprises a second moving part 132 connected to the second pumping ring 112, and the second moving part 132 is used to move the second pumping ring 112 up and down along the vertical direction.
[0070] In some embodiments, the first moving part 131 can be a telescopic rod or any movable part. The first moving part 131 can be driven by a gas pump, a gear, or any driving structure to be in different positions under specified parameters.

By setting the first pumping ring 111, the second pumping ring 112 and the plurality of third pumping rings 113, a plurality of pumping rings can be arranged in the semiconductor deposition chamber, so as to cope with different processes and specify corresponding pumping rings, thereby improving flexibility and practicality of the semiconductor equipment.
