化學機械研磨法是現今唯一能提供全面性平坦化的一 技術。而其平坦化之原理是利用類似磨刀這種機械式的 原理’配合適當的化學助劑(Reagent ),而將晶圓表面高 低起伏的輪廓加以磨平。 ^ 第1圖所示,其繪示為一化學機械研磨機台及習知調 喊器清洗裝置之簡示圖。 請參照第1圖,一化學機械研磨機台係包括一研磨台 l〇〇(Polishing Table)、 一 研磨墊(Polishing Pad)l〇2 、 一晶圓載具(Wafer Carrier)104、一研磨液輸送管件 (Slurry Tube)108 以及一調節器(Conditioner)110 。 其中,研磨墊1 0 2係舖在研磨台1 0 0上。晶圓載具1 0 4 係配置在研磨墊1 〇 2之上方,其係用來抓住被研磨的晶圓 1 0 6,以使晶圓1 〇 6能於研磨墊1 〇 2上進行研磨。研磨液輸 送管件1 0 8係配置在研磨墊丨〇 2之上方,其係用來輸送研磨 液到研磨墊1 0 2上。而調節器丨丨〇係配置在研磨墊丨〇 2之上 方,且調節器1 1 0具有調節面丨丨1以接觸研磨墊丨〇 2之表面 係肷有终多堅硬顆粒’例如是鑽石顆粒(D i a m 〇 n d G r i t s ) 或陶竟顆粒’用以調節研磨塾1 〇 2之表面。 當進行化學機械研磨時,研磨台丨〇 〇與晶圓載具1 〇 4分CMP is the only technique that can provide comprehensive planarization today. The principle of flattening is to use a mechanical principle similar to a sharpening knife 'with appropriate chemical additives (Reagent) to smooth the contours of the wafer surface. ^ Figure 1 shows a schematic diagram of a chemical mechanical grinding machine and a conventional shouting device cleaning device. Please refer to FIG. 1. A chemical mechanical polishing machine table includes a polishing table 100 (Polishing Table), a polishing pad 102, a wafer carrier 104, and a polishing liquid transporter. A tube (Slurry Tube) 108 and a conditioner (110). The polishing pad 102 is laid on the polishing table 100. The wafer carrier 104 is disposed above the polishing pad 102, and is used to hold the wafer 106 to be polished, so that the wafer 106 can be polished on the polishing pad 102. The polishing liquid conveying pipe 108 is arranged above the polishing pad 1-2, and is used to convey the polishing liquid to the polishing pad 102. The regulator 丨 丨 〇 is arranged above the polishing pad 丨 〇2, and the regulator 1 10 has an adjustment surface 丨 丨 1 to contact the polishing pad 丨 〇2. The surface is filled with hard particles. For example, diamond particles (Diamand Grits) or ceramic particles are used to adjust the surface of the grinding pad. When performing CMP, the polishing table 丨 〇〇 and wafer carrier 104 points

Description of the invention (2)-Do not rotate in a certain direction. The wafer carrier 4 grasps the back surface of the wafer 106, and presses the front surface of the wafer 104 on the polishing pad 102. The polishing liquid conveying pipe 108 supplies the polishing liquid to the polishing pad continuously. Therefore, the chemical mechanical polishing process is that when the protruding part of the front surface of the wafer is in contact with the polishing surface, the chemical assistant in the polishing liquid can be used to generate a chemical reaction on the front surface of the wafer 106. And the abrasive particles (Abr * asive Picic 1 es) in the polishing liquid are used to assist the mechanical polishing to remove the convex portion on the front surface of the wafer 106. After repeating the above-mentioned chemical reaction and mechanical grinding ', the front surface of the wafer 106 can be planarized. Generally, the surface of the polishing pad 102 has a plurality of uneven structures that facilitate polishing. Therefore, the surface of the polishing pad 102 has a roughness of 1 micrometer to 2 micrometers. However, after polishing several wafers on a general chemical mechanical polishing machine, the uneven surface of the original polishing pad 102 will become flat, so that the polishing capability of the polishing pad 丨 〇 2 will be reduced. In addition, after grinding, the material that has been ground from the wafer 〇 06 may still remain on the polishing pad 〇 02, which will change the polishing characteristics ′ and affect the polishing effect. Therefore, usually after polishing several wafers, the adjuster 丨 丨 〇 is used to adjust the polishing pad 丨 〇2 to restore the surface of the polishing pad 102 to an uneven surface, and at the same time scrape off the plugging on the polishing pad 1 0 2 residue. When removing the residue plugged in the polishing pad 丨 〇2, the regulating surface 丨 丨 j of the regulator 丨 丨 j will adhere to some of the ground material and reduce the function of the regulator 丨 丨 〇 After this time, the regulator 1 1 0 needs to be cleaned. The conventional way to clean the regulator is to immerse the regulator 丨 丨 〇 into the water tank 1 12 containing the cleaning solution 1 1 4 and swing the regulator 丨 丨 〇

Description of the invention (3) Cleaning. However, since the cleaning liquid 1 1 4 in the water tank 1 12 has no fluidity, the conventional cleaning method cannot sufficiently wash the regulator 1 10. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a regulator cleaning device for a chemical mechanical polishing machine, which can fully clean the regulator and restore the function of the regulator. The present invention provides a regulator cleaning device for a chemical mechanical polishing machine. The device includes an overflow tank, a cleaning liquid supply device, and a cleaning unit. The cleaning liquid supply device is in communication with the overflow tank to continuously supply the cleaning liquid into the overflow tank, and the cleaning liquid will fill the top of the overflow tank, and the impurities flushed from the regulator will be taken away. The cleaning unit is installed in the overflow tank to scrub the regulator so that the impurities on the regulator are sufficiently removed. The invention provides a method for cleaning a regulator of a chemical mechanical polishing machine. This method firstly provides an overflow tank, which is connected to a cleaning liquid supply device, and a cleaning unit is arranged in the overflow tank. After the regulator works on the polishing pad for a period of time, immerse the regulator into the overflow tank, so that the regulator's regulating surface contacts the cleaning unit, and rotate the cleaning unit to scrub the regulator's regulating surface, so that impurities on the regulating surface leave Conditioning surface. At the same time, the cleaning liquid supply device continuously supplies the cleaning liquid to the overflow tank, so that the cleaning liquid overflows from the overflow tank, and the washed impurities are taken out of the overflow tank together. Because the invention adopts an overflow type cleaning structure, and the cleaning unit of the device in the overflow tank can brush the regulator, the regulator can be fully washed and the regulation can be restored.
