[0028] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 , Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a semiconductor manufacturing apparatus provided in some embodiments of this application; Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the structure of a robotic arm transporting a wafer to a processing platform according to some embodiments of this application. In some embodiments, the semiconductor process apparatus 10 includes a processing platform 100 and a robotic arm 200, the robotic arm 200 being used to transport and place the wafer 20 onto the processing platform 100. In some embodiments, the processing platform 100 is a heating platform of a wafer heating device, which can implement baking processes such as soft baking, hard baking, and post-baking in the wafer photolithography process.

[0029] In some embodiments, see Figure 1The mechanical hand 200 includes a carrying platform 210, which is provided with a slit 211 penetrating through the thickness direction thereof. See Figure 2 The processing platform 100 is provided with a first needle 110, which is retractable by a cylinder. Meanwhile, the first needle 110 is provided at a position and with a size matching the slit 211 of the carrying platform 210. When the carrying platform 210 with the wafer 20 supported thereon moves to above the processing platform 100 and moves downward, the first needle 110 can penetrate through the slit 211 of the carrying platform 210 and support the wafer 20 instead of the carrying platform 210. At this time, the carrying platform 210 is separated from the wafer 20, and the carrying platform 210 can move away from the processing platform 100 below the wafer 20, so as to realize the transfer of the wafer 20 from the mechanical hand 200 to the processing platform 100. When the first needle 110 is retracted to the bottom of the processing platform 100 by the cylinder, the wafer 20 can move to contact the processing platform 100, so as to realize the heating and baking or other processing technology of the wafer 20 by the processing platform 100. In some embodiments, the semiconductor processing device 100 further includes a temporary storage platform 300 for the transfer or temporary storage of the wafer to be processed, and the wafer to be processed can be transferred from the temporary storage platform 300 to the processing platform 100 by the mechanical hand 200 for heating and baking or other processing technology. The temporary storage platform 300 is provided with a second needle 310, and similarly, the second needle 310 is provided at a position and with a size matching the slit 211 of the carrying platform 210. When the wafer 20 is supported on the second needle 310 of the temporary storage platform 300, the carrying platform 210 can move to between the wafer 20 and the temporary storage platform 300 through the slit 211 and the second needle 310, and after the relative position of the wafer 20 is adjusted, the carrying platform 210 moves upward and supports the wafer 20 instead of the second needle 310, so as to realize the transfer of the wafer 20 from the temporary storage platform 300 to the mechanical hand 200.

[0030] In some embodiments, the mechanical hand 200 includes a carrying platform 210, a connecting arm 220 and a mechanical arm 230. See Figure 2The carrying platform 210 is fixedly connected with the horizontal part 221 of the connecting arm 220 through the first screw 240, and the vertical part 222 of the connecting arm 220 is fixedly connected with the mechanical arm 230 through the second screw 250. Thus, the carrying platform 210 of the mechanical hand 200 can adjust its position in the horizontal direction through the first screw 240, and adjust its angle in the relative vertical direction through the second screw 250, so as to adjust the relative position between the carrying platform 210 and the processing platform 100. At present, the adjustment of the relative position between the carrying platform 210 and the processing platform 100 needs to adjust the position of the carrying platform 210 for multiple times in the process of taking and placing the wafer 20, that is, the positions of the first screw 240 and the second screw 250 are adjusted for multiple times, so as to realize the alignment and relative horizontal of the carrying platform 210 and the processing platform 100. This calibration method is relatively complicated, not only the accuracy is low, but also the equipment preparation time is long, which affects the work efficiency of the factory.

[0031] To solve the above technical problems, the present application provides a calibration structure 400 for calibrating the mechanical hand 200 carrying the wafer 20. Referring to Figure 3 and Figure 4 , Figure 3 The structural schematic diagram of the calibration structure provided by some embodiments of the present application is shown in the following figure: Figure 4The calibration structure 400 includes a base 410 and a holder 420. The base 410 can be fixed on the processing platform 100, i.e., when the base 410 is disposed on the processing platform 100, the base 410 and the processing platform 100 do not move relative to each other. At the same time, the center of the base 410 and the center of the processing platform 100 are located on the same vertical line and the base 410 and the processing platform 100 are relatively horizontal, i.e., when the base 410 is fixed on the processing platform, the base 410 and the processing platform 100 are aligned and relatively horizontal. The holder 420 is disposed on one side of the base 410 and away from the base 410, the center of the holder 420 and the center of the base 410 are located on the same vertical line and the holder 420 and the base 410 are relatively horizontal, i.e., the holder 420 and the base 410 are aligned and relatively horizontal. The holder 420 is used to hold the carrier platform 210 of the robot 200, when the holder 420 holds the carrier platform 210, the center of the holder 420 and the center of the carrier platform 210 are located on the same vertical line and the holder 420 and the carrier platform 210 are relatively horizontal, i.e., when the holder 420 holds the carrier platform 210, the holder 420 and the carrier platform 210 are aligned and relatively horizontal. Therefore, when the base 410 of the calibration structure 400 is fixed on the processing platform 100 and the holder 420 holds the carrier platform 210, the carrier platform 210 and the processing platform 100 are aligned and relatively horizontal, so that by adjusting and fixing the positions of the first screw 240 and the second screw 250, the positions between the carrier platform 210 and the robot 230 are calibrated and adjusted and fixed.

[0032] Continuing to refer to Figure 3 In some embodiments, the calibration structure 400 further includes a connecting alignment member 430, which is disposed between the base 410 and the holder 420. The base 410 is fixed at one end 431 of the connecting alignment member 430, i.e., the base 410 is fixedly connected to the connecting alignment member 430. The holder 420 is disposed at the other end 432 of the connecting alignment member 430, i.e., the holder 420 is disposed at the end of the connecting alignment member 430 away from the base 410. At the same time, a part of the holder 420 can be fixed at the other end 432 of the connecting alignment member 430, and the other part of the holder 420 can be detachably connected at the other end 432 of the connecting alignment member 430, and the holder 420 holds the carrier platform 210 through the part fixedly connected to the connecting alignment member 430 and the part detachably connected to the connecting alignment member 430.

[0033] Referring to Figures 3-5 , Figure 5This is a top view of a second holding plate provided in some embodiments of this application. In some embodiments, the holding member 420 includes a first holding plate 421 and a second holding plate 422. The first holding plate 421 can be fixed to the other end 432 of the connecting alignment member 430. The center of the first holding plate 421 is on the same vertical line as the center of the base 410, and the first holding plate 421 is relatively horizontal with respect to the base 410, that is, the first holding plate 421 is aligned with the base 410 and is relatively horizontal. Meanwhile, the other end 432 of the connecting alignment member 430 passes through the first holding plate 421. When the holding member 420 holds the transport platform 210, the first holding plate 421 is located on the side of the transport platform 210 closer to the processing platform 100. In some embodiments, the first holding plate 421 is detachably connected to the connecting alignment member 430, and the distance between the first holding plate 421 and the base 410 can be adjusted according to the actual distance between the processing platform 100 and the transport platform 210. In other embodiments, the first holding plate 421 may also be configured to be fixedly connected to the connecting alignment member 430; that is, the distance between the first holding plate 421 and the base 410 is not adjustable, which can improve the stability of the relative position between the first holding plate 421 and the base 410. The second holding plate 422 is detachably connected to the other end 432 of the connecting alignment member 430, that is, the second holding plate 422 can be detached from the connecting alignment member 430 and placed on the transport platform 210, and as... Figure 5 As shown, the second holding plate 422 is provided with an alignment hole 4221 corresponding to the connecting alignment member 430. When the second holding plate 422 is fixedly connected to the connecting alignment member 430 through the alignment hole 4221, the center of the second holding plate 422 and the center of the first holding plate 421 are on the same vertical line and the second holding plate 422 and the first holding plate 421 are relatively horizontal, that is, the second holding plate 422 and the first holding plate 421 are aligned and relatively horizontal, which indicates that the base 410 of the second holding plate 422 is aligned and relatively horizontal. When the holding member 420 holds the transport platform 210, the second holding plate 422 is located on the side of the transport platform 210 away from the processing platform 100, and the transport platform 210 is locked in the holding member 420 by means of the alignment hole 4221 and the locking member 433. In some embodiments, when the first holding plate 421 is configured to be detachably connected to the connecting alignment member 430, the first holding plate 421 is also provided with an alignment hole 4221 corresponding to the connecting alignment member 430. Figure 5 The same alignment hole shown in the diagram corresponds to the connecting alignment member 430, which extends from the alignment hole of the first retaining plate 421 and is also fixed by the locking member 433, so that the first retaining plate 421 is aligned with the base 410 and is relatively horizontal. In some embodiments, the outer surface of the other end 432 of the connecting alignment member 430 is provided with threads, and the locking member 433 is a nut. In other embodiments, other connection methods can be used between the connecting alignment member 430 and the retaining member 420 according to different needs.

[0034] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 3 The carrying platform 210 of the robot 200 is provided with at least two slits 211, the calibration structure 400 is provided with at least three connecting alignment members 430, and the size of the connecting alignment members 430 and the size of the slits 211 of the carrying platform 210 are matched so that the connecting alignment members 430 can pass through the slits 211 of the carrying platform 210 respectively. In this way, the connecting alignment members 430 can pass through the alignment holes 4221 and the slits 211 respectively, pass through the carrying platform 210 and the second holding disc 422, and fix the carrying platform 210 between the first holding disc 421 and the second holding disc 422 through the locking members 433. In some embodiments, the carrying platform 210 is provided with two slits 211, such as a first slit 2111 and a second slit 2112 as shown in Figure 1 , and the calibration structure 400 is provided with three connecting alignment members 430, two of which are used to pass through the same slit 211 of the carrying platform 210, i.e. the first slit 2111, and the other connecting alignment member 430 is used to pass through the slit 211 of another carrying platform 210, i.e. the second slit 2112. Meanwhile, in some embodiments, the length of the first slit 2111 is longer than the length of the second slit 2112, so that the first slit 2111 can pass through the two connecting alignment members 430. In other embodiments, the slits 211 of the carrying platform 210 and the connecting alignment members 430 of the calibration structure 400 can also be provided in other numbers and structures according to different needs, which are not limited herein.

[0035] Referring to Figure 2 In some embodiments, the processing platform 100 comprises a plurality of first guide members 120 arranged around the wafer 20, for defining the specific position of the wafer 20 when placed on the processing platform 100 and subjected to the baking process. The shape surrounded by the plurality of first guide members 120 is a circle, and the diameter of the circle is slightly larger than the diameter of the wafer 20, and the center of the circle coincides with the center of the processing platform 100. Similarly, the carrying platform 210 comprises a plurality of second guide members 212 arranged around the wafer 20, for defining the specific position of the wafer 20 when placed on the carrying platform 210 and subjected to the conveying process. The shape surrounded by the plurality of second guide members 212 is a circle, and the diameter of the circle is slightly larger than the diameter of the wafer 20, and the center of the circle coincides with the center of the carrying platform 210.

[0036] Referring to Figure 3 and Figure 4In some embodiments, the base 410 is a disc-shaped base, and the size of the base 410 is slightly larger than the size of the wafer 20, so that the base 410 is fixed on the processing platform 100 by abutting against the first guide 120 arranged on the processing platform 100. At this time, the center of the base 410 and the center of the circle formed by the plurality of first guides 120 are located on the same vertical line, so that the base 410 is aligned with the processing platform 100. Similarly, in some embodiments, the second holding disc 422 is a disc-shaped holding disc, and the size of the second holding disc 422 is slightly larger than the size of the wafer 20, so that the second holding disc 422 is fixed on the carrying platform 210 by abutting against the second guide 212 arranged on the carrying platform 210. At this time, the center of the second holding disc 422 and the center of the circle formed by the plurality of second guides 212 are located on the same vertical line, so that the second holding disc 422 is aligned with the carrying platform 210. Since the second holding disc 422 is aligned with the base 410, the processing platform 100 and the carrying platform 210 can be aligned through the calibration structure 400.

[0037] In some embodiments, the diameter of the wafer 20 is 300 mm, and in order to improve the stability of the base 410 fixed on the processing platform 100 and the second holding disc 422 fixed on the carrying platform 210, the diameter of the base 410 and / or the second holding disc 422 is set to 300.2 mm-300.6 mm. Among them, the optimal length of the diameter of the base 410 and / or the second holding disc 422 is 300.4 mm. In order to further improve the stability of the base 410 fixed on the processing platform 100 and the second holding disc 422 fixed on the carrying platform 210, and avoid the deformation of the base 410 and / or the second holding disc 422 and the relative sliding between the base 410 and the processing platform 100 and between the second holding disc 422 and the carrying platform when the positions between the carrying platform 210 and the mechanical arm 230 are adjusted and fixed, the thickness of the base 410 and / or the second holding disc 422 is set to be greater than the thickness of the wafer 20. In some embodiments, the thickness of the base 410 and / or the second holding disc 422 is set to 3 mm-8 mm. Among them, the optimal length of the thickness of the base 410 and / or the second holding disc 422 is 5 mm. In some embodiments, the material of the calibration structure 400 is a metal with high hardness, which can further avoid the deformation of the calibration structure 400 caused by stress when the positions between the carrying platform 210 and the mechanical arm 230 are adjusted and fixed. In some embodiments, the material of the calibration structure 400 is aluminum.

[0038] The calibration structure 400 provided in the present application includes the following steps when calibrating the position of the wafer transferred by the mechanical hand 200 to the processing platform 100:

[0039] Step S1: fixing the base 410 to the processing platform 100, fixing the first holding disc 421 to the connecting alignment member 430, and aligning and horizontally positioning the first holding disc 421 relative to the base 410;

[0040] Step S2: loosening the first screw 240 and the second screw 250 to allow the relative movement between the carrier platform 210 and the mechanical arm 230;

[0041] Step S3: moving the carrier platform 210 above the processing platform 100, i.e. above the first holding disc 421, and allowing the connecting alignment member 430 to pass through the gap 211 of the carrier platform 210 to tightly connect the carrier platform 210 to the first holding disc 421;

[0042] Step S4: placing the second holding disc 422 on the carrier platform 210, allowing the connecting alignment member 430 to pass through the alignment hole 4221, and tightening the locking member 433 to lock the carrier platform 210 between the first holding disc 421 and the second holding disc 422 by using the connecting alignment member 430, the alignment hole 4221 of the second holding disc 422, and the locking member 433. At this time, the carrier platform 210 is aligned and horizontally positioned relative to the processing platform 100;

[0043] Step S5: tightening the first screw 240 and the second screw 250 to prevent the relative movement between the carrier platform 210 and the mechanical arm 230;

[0044] Step S6: removing the calibration structure 400, transferring the wafer 20 to the processing platform 100 by the mechanical hand 200, and rechecking whether the relative position between the carrier platform 210 and the processing platform 100 is aligned and horizontally positioned.

[0045] The calibration structure 400 is used for calibrating the mechanical hand 200 for carrying the wafer 20 and placing the wafer 20 on the processing platform 100 in the semiconductor processing device 10. The calibration structure 400 comprises a base 410 and a holding member 420. The base 410 is fixed on the processing platform 100. The holding member 420 is arranged on one side of the base 410 and away from the base 410. The center of the holding member 420 and the center of the base 410 are located on the same vertical line, and the holding member 420 is horizontally positioned relative to the base 410. The holding member 420 is used for holding the carrier platform 210 of the mechanical hand 200 to align and horizontally position the carrier platform 210 and the processing platform, thereby calibrating and fixing the position between the carrier platform 210 and the mechanical arm 230 of the mechanical hand 200.
