[0037] In some embodiments, the plasma cleaning zone 1 includes a plasma cleaning zone upper cover 11 and a plasma cleaning zone lower cavity 12. The plasma cleaning zone upper cover 11 is disposed above the plasma cleaning zone lower cavity 12, and the plasma cleaning zone upper cover 11 and the plasma cleaning zone lower cavity 12 form a vacuum cavity. An insulating groove fixing plate 112 is disposed below the plasma cleaning zone upper cover 11, that is, an insulating groove fixing plate 112 is disposed below the plasma cleaning zone upper cover frame 111. An electrode plate 113 is disposed inside the insulating groove fixing plate 112. A vacuum electrode 114 is disposed at the top of the plasma cleaning zone upper cover 11, and the vacuum electrode 114 is connected to the electrode plate 113. An inner liner 122 is disposed inside the plasma cleaning zone lower cavity 12, that is, an inner liner 122 is disposed inside the plasma cleaning zone lower cavity frame 121. The inner liner 122 is connected to the negative electrode.
[0038] Plasma cleaning zone 1 provides an inert gas environment or a reducing gas environment;
[0039] The first formic acid cleaning zone 2 provides a vacuum environment, an inert gas environment, or a reducing gas environment; the second formic acid cleaning zone 3 provides a vacuum environment, an inert gas environment, or a reducing gas environment.
[0040] Welding zone 4 provides a vacuum environment, an inert gas environment, or a reducing gas environment.
[0041] Nitrogen is preferred as the inert gas. Formic acid is preferred as the reducing gas.
[0042] In some embodiments, a third gate valve 30 and a second formic acid cleaning zone 3 are also included. The second formic acid cleaning zone 3 is the previous station area of the welding zone 4. The third gate valve 30 is provided at the inlet end of the second formic acid cleaning zone 3, and a fourth gate valve 40 is provided at the outlet end of the second formic acid cleaning zone 3.
[0043] In some embodiments, a seventh gate valve and a second cooling zone 6 are also included. The second cooling zone 6 is the next station after the first cooling zone 5. A sixth gate valve is provided at the inlet end of the second cooling zone 6, and a seventh gate valve is provided at the outlet end of the second cooling zone 6. Filtration is performed simultaneously in each of the above station zones during vacuuming.
[0044] In some embodiments, the first formic acid cleaning zone 2, the second formic acid cleaning zone 3, and the welding zone 4 include a first mounting frame 43, an upper cover, an upper heating pipe 41, a heating plate 45, a drive wheel 46, a guide wheel 47, and a lower heating pipe 42. The heating plate 45 is disposed inside the first mounting frame 43, with the drive wheel 46 and guide wheel 47 disposed on both sides of the heating plate 45. The lower heating pipe 42 is disposed below the heating plate 45, and the upper heating pipe 41 is disposed inside the upper cover. The upper cover is disposed above the first mounting frame 43, and the upper cover and the first mounting frame 43 form a sealed cavity. The lower cavity of the first formic acid cleaning zone 2, the second formic acid cleaning zone 3, and the welding zone 4 includes the first mounting frame 43, the heating plate 45, the drive wheel 46, the guide wheel 47, and the lower heating pipe 42. Nitrogen pipes 411 are arranged around the upper part of the first mounting frame 43. Multiple nitrogen ports 412 are provided in the nitrogen pipes 411. The nitrogen ports 412 are set with an upward-sloping outlet to reduce the impact of nitrogen on the cavity, that is, to reduce the impact of nitrogen on the wafer and improve the welding quality of the wafer.
[0045] In some embodiments, the distance between the upper heating tube 41 and the wafer tray 9 is equal to the distance between the lower heating tube 42 and the wafer tray 9. The wafer is placed on the wafer tray 9, thereby ensuring that the distance between the upper heating tube 41 and the wafer is equal to the distance between the lower heating tube 42 and the wafer, enabling non-contact heating or soldering. In other words, this improves the temperature uniformity and consistency of the heating on both the upper and lower surfaces of the wafer, thus enhancing the heating uniformity of the upper and lower surfaces of the wafer.
[0046] In some embodiments, the first cooling zone 5 and the second cooling zone 6 include a second mounting frame 51, a cooling zone cover, a cooling plate 52, a boss notch 54, and a boss 53. The cooling plate 52 is disposed inside the second mounting frame 51, and a boss 53 is disposed above the cooling plate. The boss 53 has a boss notch 54 at the support leg 92 position of the wafer tray 9. A lifting mechanism 8 is disposed below the first cooling zone 5 and the second cooling zone 6. During cooling, the lifting mechanism 8 lifts and lowers the cooling plate 52 and the boss 53, allowing the wafer to directly contact the boss 53, thus improving the wafer's cooling efficiency. The lower cavity of the first cooling zone 5 and the second cooling zone 6 includes the second mounting frame 51, the cooling zone cover, the cooling plate 52, the boss notch 54, and the boss 53. The cooling zone cover and the lower cavity of the first cooling zone 5 or the second cooling zone 6 form a vacuum-sealed cavity.
[0047] In some embodiments, the system further includes a small wafer 44 and a contact or non-contact temperature sensor. The small wafer 44 and the contact or non-contact temperature sensor are disposed in the first formic acid cleaning area 2, the second formic acid cleaning area 3, and the welding area 4. The small wafer 44 is positioned within the detection range of the contact or non-contact temperature sensor. The contact or non-contact temperature sensor is located above the top cover, i.e., outside the cavity, and has a temperature measurement window. Temperature control is achieved using the small wafer 44. The infrared sensor directly measures the temperature of the small wafer 44. Since the small wafer 44 and the wafer are made of the same material, they reach the same temperature, improving the accuracy of temperature control. The non-contact temperature sensor is preferably an infrared temperature sensor.
[0048] In some embodiments, the wafer tray 9 further includes a tray frame 91 and notches 95; notches 95 are provided on both sides of the tray frame 91 in the transmission direction, and support legs 92 are provided on both sides inside the tray frame. The support legs 92 support the wafer. The support legs 92 are made of quartz, which does not absorb heat and does not affect the temperature of the wafer, thus improving the wafer reflow quality. The drive wheel 46 supports transmission within the notches 95. An upper baffle is provided below the upper heating tube 41, so that the upper heating tube 41 can only heat the upper surface of the wafer after the upper baffle is blocked. A lower baffle is provided above the lower heating tube 42, so that the lower heating tube 42 can only heat the lower surface of the wafer after the lower baffle is blocked. The upper baffle reduces the temperature influence of the upper heating tube 41 on the lower surface of the wafer, and the lower baffle reduces the temperature influence of the lower heating tube 42 on the upper surface of the wafer, realizing non-contact heating or welding, that is, realizing simultaneous heating or welding of the upper and lower surfaces of the wafer. A pick-up notch 96 is provided in the in-and-out transport direction of the tray frame 91, which facilitates the robotic arm to pick up the wafers.
[0049] In some embodiments, the notch length L93 of the notch 95 is greater than the width 48 of the drive wheel, and the notch length L93 of the notch 95 is less than 1.5 times the width 48 of the drive wheel. This is to prevent the wafer tray from tilting during transport. The distance between the edge of the notch 95 and the edge of the drive wheel 46 is less than 0.5 times the width 48 of the drive wheel, and the spacing 49 between the drive wheels is less than or equal to 1 / 4 of the wafer tray length 94. This is to prevent adjustment before the wafer tray tilts and jams, thus preventing jamming.
[0050] In some embodiments, the system further includes an inner liner 50, which is disposed within the first formic acid cleaning zone 2, the second formic acid cleaning zone 3, and the welding zone 4. An upper heating element 41 and a lower heating element 42 are disposed inside the inner liner 50. The inner liner 50 is a cuboid shape and is fixed to the upper cover or the first mounting frame 43. The inner liner 50 uses a single-sided mirror panel, which provides good heat reflection and insulation, reducing heating time and improving wafer reflow efficiency.
[0051] The workflow of a wafer reflow vacuum furnace is as follows:
[0052] The wafer robotic arm picks up the first wafer, the plasma cleaning zone 1 opens, and the transmission mechanism of the plasma cleaning zone 1 drives the power wheel 46 to transmit the first wafer into the plasma cleaning zone 1. The inlet valve 7 of the plasma cleaning zone 1 closes, and after the plasma cleaning zone 1 is evacuated, it is filled with a mixture of nitrogen and formic acid.
[0053] After evacuating the first formic acid cleaning zone 2, the second formic acid cleaning zone 3, the welding zone 4, the first cooling zone 5, and the second cooling zone 6, a mixture of nitrogen and formic acid gas is introduced.
[0054] Open the inlet valve 7 of the first formic acid cleaning zone 2, and the first wafer enters the first formic acid cleaning zone 2.
[0055] After the first wafer reaches the preheating standard, the second formic acid cleaning zone 3 opens, and the transmission mechanism drives the power wheel 46 to transmit the first wafer into the second formic acid cleaning zone 3; the second formic acid cleaning zone 3 closes, and nitrogen is replenished and replaced and formic acid is introduced as needed, and the heater starts to work.
[0056] After the first wafer reaches the heating standard, the second formic acid cleaning zone 3 opens, and the transmission mechanism drives the power wheel 46 to transmit the first wafer into the welding zone 4. The welding zone 4 closes, and nitrogen is replenished and replaced, and formic acid is introduced as needed before welding.
[0057] After the first wafer is processed, the soldering zone 4 opens, and the transfer mechanism drives the power wheel 46 to transfer the first wafer into the first cooling zone 5. The first cooling zone 5 closes, and the cooling device starts working. After pre-cooling reaches the required standard, it enters the second cooling zone 6, with the same process as the pre-cooling zone, until the temperature reaches room temperature.
[0058] After cooling, the wafer is transferred to the exit area and removed by a robotic arm. Then the cycle begins.
[0059] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and not to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features.
