Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention provides a wafer debonding fixture, belonging to the field of semiconductor manufacturing technology. Background Technology
[0002] In the production of semiconductor lasers, the thickness of the epitaxial wafer needs to be controlled at around 100µm to meet the equipment processing requirements. In many cases, during mechanical back-side grinding and polishing, the wafer needs to be temporarily bonded to a glass substrate, and then debonded after thinning and polishing.
[0003] Currently, the commonly used bonding and debonding method involves bonding the wafer and glass substrate with wax, and then removing the wax layer by immersion in a dewaxing solution after thinning and polishing to achieve debonding. Existing debonding processes on the market typically involve placing the attached wafer glass substrate upside down in a culture dish filled with dewaxing solution (wafer facing down) and waiting 1 hour or longer to complete the debonding process.
[0004] When wafers are bonded to glass substrates using beeswax, they undergo a pressing process using a wafer press, resulting in a very tight bond between the wafer and the substrate. During debonding, the substrate presses the wafer to the bottom, preventing the dewaxing solution from fully contacting the wafer and the interlayer beeswax, leading to excessively long debonding times. During production, personnel cannot visually confirm whether the wafer has completely detached from the substrate and must repeatedly lift and hold the substrate to verify. When removing the substrate after debonding, there is a risk of it slipping and falling, damaging the wafer, when handled with tweezers. Furthermore, the spillage of dewaxing solution during substrate removal also causes unnecessary waste. Utility Model Content
[0005] To address the problems of long debonding time, high consumption of dewaxing solution, and difficult operation in existing processes, this invention proposes a wafer debonding fixture.
[0006] The technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: a wafer debonding fixture, including a base and a handle, wherein the base is used to support the bonded glass tray and wafer, the base is a hollow annular tray, the large ring of the annular tray is used to support the periphery of the glass tray, so that the wafer in the middle of the glass tray is exposed from the small ring of the annular tray; the bottom of the base is provided with at least two support feet; the handle is provided on the side of the base, at least one handle is provided, for placing the fixture containing the bonded glass tray and wafer into the debonding wax solution.
[0007] Furthermore, the base is a hollow annular tray, with the inner diameter of the larger ring of the annular tray being larger than the diameter of the circular glass tray, and the inner diameter of the smaller ring of the annular tray being smaller than the diameter of the circular wafer.
[0008] Furthermore, the base is a hollow square or rectangular ring-shaped tray.
[0009] Furthermore, the base has two symmetrical handles on its side.
[0010] Furthermore, the bottom of the base is provided with three equally spaced support feet.
[0011] Optionally, the fixture may be made entirely of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE).
[0012] Optionally, the entire fixture can be 3D printed in one piece.
[0013] Optionally, the fixture may be integrally molded using a thermoplastic process.
[0014] The advantages of this utility model over the prior art are as follows: 1. The fixture design allows the glass tray to be suspended in the air, exposing part of the wafer and immersing it completely in the dewaxing solution; 2. The fixture is designed with a lifting arm, so that after the wafer is detached, the fixture and glass holder can be directly removed from the dewaxing solution; 3. Improved results: The debonding step can be completed in about 1 minute, and the glass holder is easy to remove and not easy to fall off. Attached Figure Description
