Technical Field

Background
The diffusion furnace is one of important process equipment of a front process of a semiconductor production line, and is used for diffusion, oxidation, annealing, alloying, sintering and other processes in industries such as large-scale integrated circuits, discrete devices, power electronics, photoelectric devices, optical fibers and the like. Its main purpose is to dope the semiconductor, i.e. to diffuse the doping material into the silicon wafer at high temperature, thereby changing and controlling the type, concentration and distribution of impurities in the semiconductor in order to create regions of different electrical properties.
Although some processes may use ion implantation for doping, thermal diffusion is still the most dominant, and prevalent method of doping. The thermal oxidation of silicon is to react the surface of a silicon wafer with an oxidizing agent at a high temperature to grow a silicon dioxide film. The oxidation method comprises dry oxygen oxidation and water vapor oxidation (hydrogen-containing oxygen synthesis), and the diffusion furnace is necessary equipment for preparing an oxide layer by using the two oxidation methods. The diffusion furnace is the basic equipment of the semiconductor integrated circuit process, and is interdependent, and co-developed with the semiconductor process.
The diffusion furnace is of two types, namely a vertical diffusion furnace and a horizontal diffusion furnace. The vertical diffusion furnace is characterized in that the quartz boat is vertical to the horizontal plane, so that the transmission of the silicon wafer by the mechanical arm is facilitated, and the consistency of the in-chip process parameters is better. The horizontal diffusion furnace is characterized in that the quartz boat is parallel to the horizontal plane, one process furnace tube can be 4 or more than 4, the average furnace tube occupies smaller area, and the process parameters among the plates are better than those of the vertical diffusion furnace.
At present, chinese patent publication No. CN107604444A discloses a silicon wafer heating diffusion furnace, which comprises a furnace body and a plurality of furnace tubes arranged in the furnace body, wherein a control cabinet is arranged on the furnace body, the furnace tubes are transversely arranged in the furnace body at intervals, two ends of the furnace tubes are arranged as a furnace opening and a furnace tail, and furnace doors are arranged on the furnace opening and the furnace tail on the furnace body. Heating elements are respectively arranged at the furnace mouth, the furnace tail and the middle part of the furnace tube, a quartz layer is arranged in the furnace tube, an asbestos pad and an asbestos ring are respectively sleeved on the outer surfaces of the furnace mouth and the furnace tail of the furnace tube, and a control cabinet monitors and controls the temperature in the furnace body in real time.
Although the silicon wafer heating diffusion furnace can achieve the effect of preserving heat of the furnace mouth and the furnace tail and prevent the furnace mouth from being caused by heat dissipation, when the diffusion furnace is used, the furnace mouth is not well sealed due to the existence of the furnace door, heat dissipation is easily caused in the production process, and meanwhile, due to the high-temperature condition, the silicon wafer easily generates harmful gas and leaks from the position of the furnace door, so that certain damage is caused to the health of operators.
