Description
本發明係提供一種可全面性導引元件旋轉甩出之清洗流體依導引氣流流動路徑排出,而使元件迅速乾燥,以提升乾燥效能及縮短作業時間之元件清洗機。The invention provides a component cleaning machine which can fully discharge the cleaning fluid of the guiding element and discharge it according to the guiding airflow flow path, and quickly dry the component to improve the drying performance and shorten the working time.
在現今,半導體晶圓、鏡片、玻璃、印刷電路板、面板或醫療儀器等元件,於製作過程或使用一段時間後,元件之表面均會附著有雜質、污垢等,而影響元件之潔淨度及品質,為避免影響元件之製作良率及品質,業者係以清洗機清洗附著於元件表面之雜質等,以晶圓為例,係必須歷經多道製程,導致晶圓之表面會附著雜質、微粒或化合物等,因此,晶圓於不同製程之前後,必須執行清洗表面作業,例如晶圓在進入熱爐管(furnace)以進行擴散或氧化製程前、進行薄膜沈積前或蝕刻程序後,均需以晶圓清洗機清洗晶圓,以去除晶圓表面之雜質、微粒或化合物等,再將晶圓除濕乾燥,使得晶圓之表面具有高潔淨度,以提升晶圓製作品質。In today's semiconductor wafers, lenses, glass, printed circuit boards, panels or medical instruments, after the manufacturing process or after a period of use, the surface of the components will be attached with impurities, dirt, etc., which will affect the cleanliness of the components. In order to avoid affecting the production yield and quality of components, the manufacturer cleans the impurities attached to the surface of the device with a cleaning machine. For example, in the case of wafers, it is necessary to go through multiple processes, resulting in adhesion of impurities and particles to the surface of the wafer. Or compounds, etc., therefore, the wafer must be cleaned before the different processes, such as before the wafer enters the hot furnace for diffusion or oxidation process, before film deposition or after the etching process. The wafer is cleaned by a wafer cleaning machine to remove impurities, particles or compounds on the surface of the wafer, and the wafer is dehumidified and dried to make the surface of the wafer highly clean to improve wafer fabrication quality.
請參閱第1圖,係為一種晶圓清洗機,其係於機台11上設有一上方具開口121之清洗槽12,該清洗槽12之底面一側係設有排放管13,用以排出清洗流體,一裝配於機台11上之承載裝置14,係設有一凸伸於清洗槽12內之轉軸141,並於轉軸141上裝配有可承載待清洗晶圓之旋轉台142,一位於清洗槽12上方之噴管15,係用以噴灑清洗流體(如離子水或氣體等),另於清洗槽12之外部設有一連通排放管13之抽風裝置16;於執行清洗晶圓17作業時,可將待清洗之晶圓17置放於旋轉台142上,該旋轉台142即真空吸附待清洗之晶圓17定位,接著承載裝置14之轉軸141係帶動旋轉台142及待清洗之晶圓17旋轉作動,而噴管15則將清洗流體噴灑於待清洗之晶圓17上,進而清洗附著於晶圓17表面之雜質、微粒或化合物等,並利用旋轉台142旋轉之離心力將晶圓17表面之清洗流體向外甩出,此時,抽風裝置16可利用排放管13而抽取清洗槽12內部之空氣,以使晶圓17旋轉甩出之清洗流體可流入於排放管13排出,於清洗完畢後,該噴管15係停止噴灑清洗流體而改以噴灑氣體,由於旋轉台142仍帶動晶圓17旋轉,而可持續利用旋轉台142旋轉之離心力將晶圓17表面乾燥,達到清洗及乾燥晶圓17之目的;惟,該排放管13係位於清洗槽12之一側,導致抽風裝置16僅可於清洗槽12一側近排放管13之區域產生較大之吸力,而使晶圓17旋轉甩出到近排放管13區域的清洗流體迅速流入於排放管13,但清洗槽12另一側之區域則會因吸力變小,以致晶圓17旋轉甩出至該區域的清洗流體會撞擊到清洗槽12之內壁面,而此一撞擊,又會噴濺回晶圓17之表面,致使晶圓17無法迅速旋乾表面,不僅乾燥效率不佳,亦增加乾燥作業時間,造成降低生產效能之缺失。Referring to FIG. 1 , a wafer cleaning machine is provided on the machine table 11 with a cleaning tank 12 having an opening 121 on the bottom surface thereof. The bottom side of the cleaning tank 12 is provided with a discharge pipe 13 for discharging. The cleaning device, a bearing device 14 mounted on the machine table 11, is provided with a rotating shaft 141 protruding from the cleaning tank 12, and a rotating table 142 for carrying the wafer to be cleaned is mounted on the rotating shaft 141, and the cleaning unit is mounted on the rotating shaft 141. The nozzle 15 above the tank 12 is used for spraying a cleaning fluid (such as ionized water or gas), and outside the cleaning tank 12 is provided a suction device 16 that communicates with the discharge pipe 13; The wafer 17 to be cleaned can be placed on the rotating table 142, that is, the vacuum adsorbing the wafer 17 to be cleaned, and then the rotating shaft 141 of the carrying device 14 drives the rotating table 142 and the wafer to be cleaned. 17 is rotated, and the nozzle 15 sprays the cleaning fluid onto the wafer 17 to be cleaned, thereby cleaning impurities, particles or compounds attached to the surface of the wafer 17, and using the centrifugal force of the rotating table 142 to rotate the wafer 17 The cleaning fluid on the surface is thrown outwards. At this time, the exhaust is installed. 16 The exhaust pipe 13 can be used to extract the air inside the cleaning tank 12, so that the cleaning fluid that is rotated out of the wafer 17 can flow into the discharge pipe 13, and after the cleaning is completed, the nozzle 15 stops spraying the cleaning fluid. By spraying the gas, since the rotating table 142 still drives the wafer 17 to rotate, the surface of the wafer 17 can be dried by the centrifugal force of the rotation of the rotating table 142 to clean and dry the wafer 17; however, the discharge tube 13 is located One side of the cleaning tank 12 causes the air extracting device 16 to generate a large suction force only in the region near the discharge pipe 13 on the side of the cleaning tank 12, and the cleaning fluid which is rotated to the vicinity of the discharge pipe 13 in the wafer 17 is rapidly flowed into the area. The discharge pipe 13 is exhausted, but the area on the other side of the cleaning tank 12 is reduced due to the suction force, so that the cleaning fluid that the wafer 17 rotates to the area will hit the inner wall surface of the cleaning tank 12, and this impact will occur again. The surface of the wafer 17 is splashed back, so that the wafer 17 cannot be quickly dried on the surface, which not only has poor drying efficiency, but also increases drying operation time, resulting in a lack of production efficiency.

請參閱第9圖,於執行清洗晶圓作業時,係可將待清洗之晶圓80置放於旋轉台44上,並以旋轉台44之複數個扣具441將待清洗之晶圓80扣掣定位,該承載裝置40之馬達41即利用皮帶輪組42驅動轉軸43轉動,使轉軸43帶動旋轉台44及待清洗之晶圓80同步旋轉,此時,抽風機72可經由第一、二通道62、64及匯流孔61而由通風口311處抽取外部空氣,並使流入至旋轉台44四周之空氣沿第一導流通道62匯流至中間位置之匯流孔61,以於旋轉台44之四周產生一全罩式向下吸入流動之導引氣流;請參閱第10圖,當旋轉台44帶動待清洗之晶圓80旋轉時,該噴灑吹乾裝置50之噴管51係可對旋轉中之待清洗晶圓80噴灑清洗流體(如清洗用之離子水),以清洗附著於晶圓80表面上之雜質、微粒或化合物等,並使晶圓80利用旋轉之離心力將雜質等由清洗流體噴流向外甩出,此時,可利用抽風機72於旋轉台44四周形成全罩式向下吸入流動之導引氣流,以全面性導引晶圓80旋轉甩出之清洗流體依導引氣流流動路徑,而由第一導流通道62及匯流孔61流入至第二導流通道64,又部份被甩出之清洗流體穿過導引氣流而撞擊至導流盤60之內壁面時,由於導引氣流位於晶圓80與導流盤60之間,此時,亦可利用導引氣流直接導引反彈噴濺之清洗流體向下流動,並不會使撞擊導流盤60之清洗流體噴濺回晶圓80上,使得清洗流體依導引氣流流動路徑,而由第一導流通道62及匯流孔61流入至第二導流通道64,再由清洗槽30之排放口32排出;請參閱第11圖,於清洗晶圓80完畢後,可控制噴灑吹乾裝置50之噴管51停止噴灑清洗流體,而改以噴灑另一種清洗流體(如乾燥用之氣體),由於承載裝置40之轉軸43仍帶動旋轉台44及晶圓80同步旋轉,並利用離心力將表面之清洗流體向外甩出,此時,相同的可利用抽風機72於旋轉台44四周形成全罩式向下吸入流動之導引氣流,導引晶圓80旋轉甩出之清洗流體依導引氣流流動路徑,而由第一導流通道62及匯流孔61流入至第二導流通道64,再由清洗槽30之排放口32排出,進而使晶圓80迅速將清洗流體甩乾,以縮短乾燥作業時間,達到提升乾燥效能之實用效益。Referring to FIG. 9, when the wafer cleaning operation is performed, the wafer 80 to be cleaned can be placed on the rotating table 44, and the wafer 80 to be cleaned is buckled by a plurality of fasteners 441 of the rotating table 44.掣 positioning, the motor 41 of the carrying device 40 drives the rotating shaft 43 to rotate by the pulley set 42, so that the rotating shaft 43 drives the rotating table 44 and the wafer 80 to be cleaned to rotate synchronously. At this time, the extracting fan 72 can pass through the first and second channels. 62, 64 and the bus hole 61, the outside air is extracted from the vent 311, and the air flowing into the periphery of the rotating table 44 is merged along the first guiding channel 62 to the confluence hole 61 at the intermediate position so as to surround the rotating table 44. A full-cover type downwardly inhaling flow guiding airflow is generated; referring to FIG. 10, when the rotating table 44 drives the wafer 80 to be cleaned to rotate, the nozzle 51 of the spray drying device 50 can be rotated. The cleaning wafer 80 is sprayed with a cleaning fluid (such as ion water for cleaning) to clean impurities, particles or compounds adhering to the surface of the wafer 80, and the wafer 80 is sprayed by the cleaning fluid by centrifugal force of rotation. Pull out outwards, at this time, you can use the exhaust fan 72 to spin A guide airflow of a full-cover type downward suction flow is formed around the stage 44 to comprehensively guide the cleaning fluid that is rotated by the wafer 80 to guide the airflow flow path, and is flown by the first flow guiding channel 62 and the manifold hole 61. When the cleaning fluid that has been scooped out passes through the guiding airflow and impinges on the inner wall surface of the deflector 60, the guiding airflow is located between the wafer 80 and the deflector 60, At this time, the guiding fluid flow can also directly guide the bounce spray cleaning fluid to flow downward, and the cleaning fluid of the impinging deflector 60 is not splashed back onto the wafer 80, so that the cleaning fluid flows according to the guiding airflow. The path flows from the first flow guiding channel 62 and the collecting hole 61 to the second guiding channel 64, and is discharged by the discharging port 32 of the cleaning tank 30; referring to FIG. 11, after the wafer 80 is cleaned, it can be controlled. The nozzle 51 of the spray drying device 50 stops spraying the cleaning fluid, and instead sprays another cleaning fluid (such as a gas for drying), because the rotating shaft 43 of the carrying device 40 still drives the rotating table 44 and the wafer 80 to rotate synchronously, and Using centrifugal force to pull out the cleaning fluid on the surface, at this time, The same exhaust fan 72 can be used to form a full-cover down-flowing guide airflow around the rotary table 44, and the cleaning fluid that guides the wafer 80 to rotate out is guided by the flow path of the airflow, and the first flow guiding channel is used. 62 and the flow hole 61 flow into the second flow guiding channel 64, and then discharged from the discharge port 32 of the cleaning tank 30, so that the wafer 80 quickly dries the cleaning fluid to shorten the drying operation time and achieve the practical benefit of improving the drying efficiency. .
據此,本發明可有效導引元件於旋轉清洗乾燥中甩出之清洗流體向下流動排出,使元件迅速清洗乾燥,而提升乾燥效能及縮短作業時間,實為一深具實用性及進步性之設計,然未見有相同之產品及刊物公開,從而允符發明專利申請要件,爰依法提出申請。Accordingly, the present invention can effectively guide the cleaning fluid discharged from the rotating cleaning and drying device to flow downward, so that the components can be quickly cleaned and dried, thereby improving the drying efficiency and shortening the working time, which is practical and progressive.
