Description

Reaction cavity vacuum control system and method and pressure control valve used in reaction cavity vacuum control system
Technical Field
The present disclosure relates to semiconductor devices, and particularly to a reaction chamber vacuum control system and method, and a pressure control valve used therein.
Background
In the field of semiconductor technology, semiconductor devices have a great impact on the yield of wafer fabrication. As semiconductor wafers are scaled from 4 inches, 5 inches, to larger sizes of 12 inches, even 18 inches, etc., the requirements for wafer fabrication for semiconductor devices are increasing. The vacuum cavity is a reaction cavity commonly used in the wafer manufacturing process, and the quality of the vacuum control directly influences the yield of the wafer.
Taking plasma etching as an example, plasma etching (PLASMA ETCHING Technology) is performed by exciting an etching gas to form a plasma. In general, in a plasma etching apparatus, plasma is generally formed by radio frequency excitation of etching gas exhausted from an air inlet unit located at the top of a reaction chamber, and the plasma bombards a wafer located on a chuck, thereby etching the wafer. Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of a typical 8-inch wafer plasma etching machine, as shown in fig. 1, the plasma etching machine includes a reaction chamber 100, wherein the reaction chamber 100 includes a chuck 110, a wafer 120 disposed on the chuck, and an air inlet unit 130 disposed at a top center of the reaction chamber 100, and the air inlet unit 130 is connected to a reaction gas source outside the reaction chamber and is used for inputting reaction gas into the reaction chamber. The reaction gas is ionized into plasma under the action of a radio frequency source so as to realize the etching of the wafer. The plasma etching machine further comprises a pressure control valve 200 and a molecular pump 300, wherein the molecular pump 300 pumps the used reaction gas out of the reaction cavity 100 through the pressure control valve 200, and vacuums the reaction cavity 100. Wafer processing requires higher and higher uniformity of plasma in the vacuum chamber of the reaction, and the pumping direction of the vacuum control of the reaction chamber is more and more sensitive to the asymmetric influence of the plasma.
In the equipment technology of 8 inches and 12 inches, suppliers do multiple debugging and cavity structure updating and transformation for reducing the influence of vacuum pumping on plasma uniformity, but up to now, the symmetrical arrangement of cavity vacuum pumping is not really realized by a mass production machine, and the influence of asymmetry of pumping direction on high-stage process is more and more obvious.
In a typical 8 inch wafer plasma etcher, as shown in fig. 1, a vacuum control valve 200 and molecular pump 300 are used horizontally alongside the reaction chamber 100, which results in a gas flow through two 90 degree bends (as shown by the arrows) and severely reduced pumping speed. And the pumping direction is eccentric, as shown in fig. 2, fig. 2 is a schematic diagram of the plasma direction in the reaction chamber of the plasma etching apparatus shown in fig. 1. As shown in fig. 2, the actual plasma direction 510 is significantly shifted from the ideal plasma direction 520, which causes the problem of asymmetry of the plasma reaction to the wafer, reducing wafer yield.
Referring to fig. 3 and 4, fig. 3 is a schematic diagram of a typical 12 inch wafer plasma etching machine, fig. 4 is a schematic diagram of a pressure control valve, as shown in fig. 3, the pressure control valve 200 and the molecular pump 300 are vertically disposed below the reaction chamber 100, as shown in fig. 4, the pressure control valve 200 is a single fan-shaped valve, and the moving direction of the pressure control valve when opened is horizontal, and the method can improve the pumping rate of vacuum compared with the wafer plasma etching machine of fig. 1, but due to the asymmetric defect of the pressure control valve 200 when opened, the eccentric defect of the pumping direction is reduced, the plasma uniformity is improved, as shown in fig. 5, and fig. 5 is a schematic diagram of the plasma direction in the reaction chamber of the plasma etching machine of fig. 3. As shown in fig. 5, the actual plasma direction 510 is significantly shifted from the ideal plasma direction 520, which causes the problem of asymmetry of the plasma reaction to the wafer, reducing wafer yield.
Therefore, in the current main flow machine, due to the designed congenital defect, after the pressure control valve 200 is opened, the plasma is eccentric and asymmetric, so that the uniformity of the etching rate of the reaction cavity 100 is reduced, the reaction results of the wafer at different positions of the reaction cavity 100 are different, the on-line debugging is interfered, the on-line measurement of the product is directly affected, and even in the area with poor uniformity, the on-line defect is increased, the electrical failure is caused, so that the yield is reduced.
