Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of semiconductor technology, and more specifically, to a photomask clamping device. Background Technology
[0002] In semiconductor chip manufacturing, the photomask is the core of the photolithography process; by designing different photomasks, various types of chips can be fabricated. However, during the photolithography process, as the photomask is used repeatedly, particles or other impurities that are indistinguishable to the naked eye accumulate on its surface. These particles and impurities not only prevent the desired pattern from being etched but also pose a risk of alarms and malfunctions during photomask transport. Therefore, regular photomask inspection and cleaning are essential measures.
[0003] The existing photomask inspection and cleaning solution involves using clamps to fix and secure the photomask on both sides for surface observation. After inspection, the photomask must be placed in a photomask box for cleaning, and the photomask must be manually flipped over. Because the photomask is fixed and clamped, only one side of the photomask can be inspected at a time. To inspect the other side, the photomask must be re-clamped, making the inspection process cumbersome. Furthermore, removing the photomask from the clamps for cleaning results in low cleaning efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0028] Please refer to Figure 1 This embodiment provides a photomask clamping device 100, including a support assembly 110, a clamping assembly 120, and a rotary driver 130. The support assembly 110 includes a handheld part 111 and two support parts 112, which are arranged relatively apart, with one end connected to the handheld part 111 and the other end connected to the clamping assembly 120. The rotary driver 130 is disposed at the connection between the support part 112 and the clamping assembly 120, and is used to drive the clamping assembly 120 to rotate around the axis extending in the direction of the support part 112. The clamping assembly 120 includes a frame 121, and a first cylinder 140 is respectively disposed at the four corners of the frame 121. The output end of the first cylinder 140 is connected to a first limiting plate 122, which is perpendicular to the plane of the frame 121. Any two first cylinders 140 arranged in a vertical direction can drive the two first limiting plates 122 to move closer or further apart to clamp the photomask 200.
[0029] Specifically, such as Figure 1 As shown, the support assembly 110 includes a handheld part 111 and two support parts 112. The handheld part 111 has a rod-shaped structure for easy gripping by the operator. Preferably, the handheld part 111 may be partially covered with an anti-slip layer or have anti-slip texture to improve the comfort and stability of the operator's grip. The support parts 112 are preferably made of high-strength and lightweight material, which can ensure sufficient support strength to prevent deformation during the clamping of the photomask 200, thus affecting the operating accuracy, while also reducing the overall weight of the device and facilitating handheld operation by the operator.
[0030] In one possible implementation of this application, such as Figure 2As shown, the support portion 112 includes a first connecting plate 1121 and a second connecting plate 1122. One end of the first connecting plate 1121 is connected to the handheld portion 111, and the other end is perpendicularly connected to the second connecting plate 1122, making the support portion 112 have an L-shaped structure. The end of the second connecting plate 1122 away from the first connecting plate 1121 is connected to the clamping assembly 120, and the clamping assembly 120 can rotate around the axis of the second connecting plate 1122. This arrangement ensures both the stable connection of the clamping assembly 120 and prevents interference between the clamping assembly 120 and the support portion 112 when rotating around its axis, thus improving the reliability of rotation.
[0031] The rotary driver 130 is preferably a rotary motor, servo motor, stepper motor, etc. During operation, the rotary driver 130 can convert the rotational motion of the motor into the precise rotation of the clamping assembly 120 around the axis of the support 112 to achieve a rotation of 0-360 degrees, thereby inspecting both sides of the photomask 200 during the clamping rotation process and improving the detection efficiency.
[0032] like Figure 1 As shown, the frame 121 of the clamping assembly 120 has an open structure in the middle to accommodate the photomask 200; the first cylinder 140 set at the four corners of the frame 121 is preferably a pneumatic cylinder. Under the drive of the first cylinder 140, the first limiting plate 122 can limit and clamp the photomask 200 from the vertical direction. This clamping method can apply pressure evenly to the edge of the photomask 200, avoid damage to the surface of the photomask 200, and ensure the stability of the clamping. In addition, it can flexibly adapt to photomasks 200 of different sizes, improving the applicability of the photomask clamping device 100.
[0033] It should be noted that, in one possible implementation of this application, firstly, as... Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a first buffer pad 125 is provided in the contact area between the frame 121 and the photomask 200; a second buffer pad 126 is provided in the contact area between the first limiting plate 122 and the photomask 200.
[0034] Specifically, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, to prevent the hard surface of the frame 121 from scratching or colliding with the photomask 200, a first buffer pad 125 is provided in the contact area between the two. The material of the first buffer pad 125 is usually selected from materials with high elasticity, low coefficient of friction and stable chemical properties, such as silicone and rubber, which have good flexibility and wear resistance. It can effectively absorb and disperse external forces during the placement and clamping of the photomask 200, and reduce the impact of impact on the photomask 200. This application does not impose any restrictions on the size and shape of the first buffer pad 125.
[0035] The first buffer pad 125 can be a rectangular block or a circle, as long as it can buffer and protect the photomask 200. There can be multiple first buffer pads 125, which are evenly distributed in the contact area between the frame 121 and the photomask 200.
[0036] Similarly, as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, to prevent the hard surface of the first limiting plate 122 from scratching or colliding with the photomask 200, a second buffer pad 126 is provided in the contact area between the two. The material of the second buffer pad 126 is usually selected from materials with high elasticity, low coefficient of friction and stable chemical properties, such as silicone and rubber. It has good flexibility and wear resistance, and can effectively absorb and disperse external forces during the placement and clamping of the photomask 200, reducing the impact of impact on the photomask 200. This application does not impose any restrictions on the size and shape of the second buffer pad 126. The second buffer pad 126 can be a rectangular block or a circle, as long as it can provide buffering and protection for the photomask 200. There can be multiple second buffer pads 126, which are evenly distributed in the contact area between the first limiting plate 122 and the photomask 200.
[0037] Second, such as Figure 2 As shown, the handheld part 111 is equipped with a speed control component 1111, which is connected to the rotary driver 130 and used to adjust the speed at which the rotary driver 130 drives the clamping assembly 120 to rotate around the axis extending from the support part 112. The speed control component 1111 can have various structural forms, such as a knob, a button, or a dial. In one specific embodiment of this application, the speed control component 1111 is a dial type. By rotating the speed control component 1111 left or right, the rotation speed of the photomask 200 can be decreased or increased. This method is intuitive and allows the operator to quickly find the appropriate speed setting. By setting the speed control component 1111, the rotation speed of the photomask 200 can be adjusted according to actual testing needs for better inspection of the photomask 200 surface.
[0038] Third, such as Figure 2 As shown, the handle 111, the frame 121 and the support 112 are internally interconnected; the handle 111 is connected to a compressed gas pipe, which is connected to the internal cavity of the frame 121 for supplying compressed gas to the first cylinder 140; the handle 111 is disposed on the first pressure regulating part 1112 for regulating the gas pressure of the compressed gas supplied to the first cylinder 140.
[0039] Specifically, such as Figure 2As shown, the end of the handheld part 111 is provided with a port for connecting a compressed gas pipeline to supply gas to the first cylinder 140. The first pressure regulating part 1112 is used to precisely control the gas supply pressure to the first cylinder 140. In actual operation, the operator can adjust the pressure of the compressed gas supplied to the first cylinder 140 through the first pressure regulating part 1112 according to the material, size, and clamping requirements of the photomask 200. For photomasks 200 that are brittle and small in size, a lower clamping pressure is required to prevent the photomask 200 from being damaged; while for photomasks 200 that are harder and larger in size, the clamping pressure needs to be appropriately increased to ensure that the photomask 200 does not loosen during operation. By precisely adjusting the gas pressure, not only can the photomask 200 be effectively protected, but the stability and reliability of clamping can also be improved, meeting the diverse needs of clamping the photomask 200 under different process conditions.
[0040] The photomask clamping device 100 provided in this application includes a support assembly 110, a clamping assembly 120, and a rotary driver 130. The support assembly 110 includes a handheld part 111 and two support parts 112, which are arranged relatively apart, with one end connected to the handheld part 111 and the other end connected to the clamping assembly 120. The rotary driver 130 is disposed at the connection between the support part 112 and the clamping assembly 120, and is used to drive the clamping assembly 120 to rotate around the axis extending from the support part 112. Through the arrangement of the rotary driver 130, the clamping assembly 120 and the photomask can be rotated 200°. Compared with the prior art where the clamp and photomask are fixedly connected, this application can achieve... By simultaneously inspecting both sides of the photomask 200 through rotation, inspection efficiency is improved. Furthermore, during rotation, the device can stop rotating in areas requiring cleaning and perform cleaning within the designated area. Compared to existing methods that involve rotating and cleaning within the photomask box, this method significantly improves cleaning efficiency. The rotating clamping assembly 120 includes a frame 121, with first cylinders 140 positioned at each of its four corners. The output ends of the first cylinders 140 are connected to first limiting plates 122, which are perpendicular to the plane of the frame 121. Any two first cylinders 140 positioned vertically can drive the two first limiting plates 122 to move closer or further apart to clamp the photomask 200. The use of first cylinders 140 allows for the adaptation of photomasks 200 of different sizes, improving clamping stability and usability. The aforementioned photomask clamping device 100 enhances the applicability, efficiency, and cleaning efficiency of the photomask 200 inspection process.
[0041] In one possible implementation of this application, such as Figure 3As shown, the clamping assembly 120 includes a second cylinder 150, which is disposed on the side of the first limiting plate 122 opposite to the first cylinder 140. The output end of the second cylinder 150 is connected to a second limiting plate 123, and the photomask 200 is clamped between the frame 121 and the second limiting plate 123. The second cylinder 150 drives the second limiting plate 123 to move along the length direction of the first limiting plate 122, so that the second limiting plate 123 moves closer to or further away from the first limiting plate 122. Preferably, as shown... Figure 3 As shown, the second limiting plate 123 has an L-shaped structure.
[0042] The second limiting plate 123 allows for horizontal positioning and fixation of the photomask 200, ensuring that both sides of the photomask 200 abut against the end faces of the frame 121 and the second limiting plate 123, thereby improving the stability of the photomask 200 clamping. The second cylinder 150 allows for adjustable distance between the second limiting plate 123 and the frame 121, facilitating not only the disassembly and assembly of the photomask 200 but also adapting to photomasks of different sizes, thus enhancing the flexibility of the photomask clamping device 100.
[0043] It should be noted that, firstly, in one possible embodiment of this application, there is a preset interval between the first cylinder 140 and the second cylinder 150, so as to ensure that when the second cylinder 150 drives the second limiting plate 123 to move in the horizontal direction, it will not interfere with the setting position of the first limiting plate 122.
[0044] Second, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in one possible embodiment of this application, a third buffer pad 127 is provided in the contact area between the second limiting plate 123 and the photomask 200.
[0045] Specifically, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, to prevent the hard surface of the second limiting plate 123 from scratching or colliding with the photomask 200, a third buffer pad 127 is provided in the contact area between the two. The material of the third buffer pad 127 is usually selected from materials with high elasticity, low coefficient of friction and stable chemical properties, such as silicone and rubber. It has good flexibility and wear resistance, and can effectively absorb and disperse external forces during the placement and clamping of the photomask 200, reducing the impact of impact on the photomask 200. This application does not impose any restrictions on the size and shape of the third buffer pad 127.
[0046] The third buffer pad 127 can be a rectangular block or a circle, as long as it can buffer and protect the photomask 200. There can be multiple third buffer pads 127, which are evenly distributed in the contact area between the second limiting plate 123 and the photomask 200.
[0047] Third, such as Figure 2 As shown, in one possible embodiment of this application, the handle 111, the frame 121 and the support 112 are internally interconnected; the handle 111 is connected to a compressed gas pipe, which is connected to the internal cavity of the frame 121 for supplying compressed gas to the second cylinder 150; the handle 111 is disposed on the second pressure regulating part 1113 for regulating the gas pressure of the compressed gas supplied to the second cylinder 150.
[0048] Specifically, such as Figure 2 As shown, the end of the handheld part 111 is provided with a port for connecting a compressed gas pipeline to supply gas to the second cylinder 150. The second pressure regulating part 1113 is used to precisely control the gas supply pressure to the second cylinder 150. In actual operation, the operator can adjust the pressure of the compressed gas supplied to the second cylinder 150 through the second pressure regulating part 1113 according to the material, size, and clamping requirements of the photomask 200. For photomasks 200 that are brittle and small in size, a lower clamping pressure is required to prevent the photomask 200 from being damaged; while for photomasks 200 that are harder and larger in size, the clamping pressure needs to be appropriately increased to ensure that the photomask 200 does not loosen during operation. By precisely adjusting the gas pressure, not only can the photomask 200 be effectively protected, but the stability and reliability of clamping can also be improved, meeting the diverse needs of photomask 200 clamping under different process conditions.
[0049] For example, such as Figure 2 As shown, the handheld part 111, the frame 121 and the support part 112 are internally interconnected; the handheld part 111 is connected to a vacuum pipe, which is connected to the internal cavity of the frame 121; the contact area between the frame 121 and the photomask 200 is evenly distributed with a plurality of vacuum holes 124, which are connected to the vacuum pipe through the internal cavity of the frame 121 to form a vacuum passage for adsorbing the photomask 200.
[0050] Specifically, the end of the handheld part 111 is provided with a port for connecting a vacuum pipe. The vacuum pipe can form a vacuum passage with the vacuum hole 124, and the photomask 200 can be adsorbed onto the frame 121 through the vacuum hole 124, further improving the clamping stability of the photomask clamping device 100. There can be multiple vacuum holes 124, which are evenly distributed on the contact surface between the frame 121 and the photomask 200 to improve the uniformity of adsorption.
[0051] Among them, such as Figure 2As shown, the handheld part 111 is also connected to a vacuum switch 1114 and a vacuum gauge 1115. The vacuum switch 1114 is used to control the connection or disconnection of the vacuum channel. When it is necessary to adsorb the photomask 200, the vacuum switch 1114 can connect the vacuum channel and the vacuum hole 124 to form a vacuum passage; when it is necessary to remove the photomask 200, the vacuum switch 1114 can disconnect the vacuum channel and the vacuum hole 124, at which time the vacuum hole 124 will no longer adsorb the photomask 200. In addition, the vacuum gauge 1115 can detect and display the current vacuum level in real time. By adjusting the vacuum level, the amount of vacuum entering the vacuum channel can be adjusted to prevent the photomask 200 from falling due to insufficient adsorption force or being damaged due to excessive adsorption force, thereby further improving the clamping reliability of the photomask clamping device 100.
[0052] The above description is merely an optional embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0053] It should also be noted that the various specific technical features described in the above specific embodiments can be combined in any suitable way without contradiction. In order to avoid unnecessary repetition, this utility model will not describe the various possible combinations separately.
