Description
技术领域Technical Field
本发明涉及半导体加工设备技术领域,具体涉及一种半导体沉积设备及半导体沉积设备的清理方法。The present invention relates to the technical field of semiconductor processing equipment, and in particular to a semiconductor deposition equipment and a cleaning method for the semiconductor deposition equipment.
背景技术Background technique
在半导体晶片上进行薄膜沉积是半导体制造工艺中一个非常重要的模块。典型的半导体沉积设备主要包括化学气相沉积设备、物理气相沉积设备、等离子体增强气相沉积设备、金属有机物化学气相沉积(MOCVD)设备等。Thin film deposition on semiconductor wafers is a very important module in the semiconductor manufacturing process. Typical semiconductor deposition equipment mainly includes chemical vapor deposition equipment, physical vapor deposition equipment, plasma enhanced vapor deposition equipment, metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) equipment, etc.
通常,在半导体薄膜沉积过程中,如图1和图2所示,半导体沉积设备中设有真空或低压的反应腔室100,反应腔室100内设置有晶圆承载台103,晶圆放置于该晶圆承载台103上。通过进气装置(例如喷淋头)将沉积气体引入反应腔室100内,并输送到放置在晶圆承载台上的一或多个晶圆的表面进行处理,从而生长出特定晶体结构的薄膜。反应腔室100的底壁上设置有排气口101,排气口连接排气管路102,使用过的沉积气体通过位于反应腔室底部的排气口101经排气管路102从反应腔室100内排出。同时为了实现均匀沉积,晶圆承载台103在旋转轴104的带动下高速旋转。Generally, in the semiconductor thin film deposition process, as shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 , a vacuum or low-pressure reaction chamber 100 is provided in the semiconductor deposition equipment, and a wafer carrier 103 is provided in the reaction chamber 100, and a wafer is placed on the wafer carrier 103. The deposition gas is introduced into the reaction chamber 100 through an air intake device (such as a shower head), and transported to the surface of one or more wafers placed on the wafer carrier for processing, so as to grow a film with a specific crystal structure. An exhaust port 101 is provided on the bottom wall of the reaction chamber 100, and the exhaust port is connected to an exhaust pipeline 102. The used deposition gas is discharged from the reaction chamber 100 through the exhaust port 101 located at the bottom of the reaction chamber through the exhaust pipeline 102. At the same time, in order to achieve uniform deposition, the wafer carrier 103 rotates at high speed driven by the rotating shaft 104.
由于晶圆的放置不当,或者高温环境下晶圆容易发生变形,导致在沉积过程中晶圆在离心力的作用下发生飞片(晶圆被甩出晶圆承载台)。若被甩落的晶圆掉落至反应腔室的排气口上,则会导致排气通路堵塞。此外,在沉积过程中,会在排气口附近形成反应副产物的寄生沉积,随着生长炉数的累加,在排气口附近的沉积越来越厚逐渐对排气口形成堵塞,也会对反应腔室中的气体流动造成影响。因此,需要对堵塞的排气口进行清理。Due to improper placement of the wafer, or the wafer is prone to deformation in a high temperature environment, the wafer will fly under the action of centrifugal force during the deposition process (the wafer is thrown out of the wafer carrier). If the thrown wafer falls on the exhaust port of the reaction chamber, it will cause the exhaust passage to be blocked. In addition, during the deposition process, parasitic deposition of reaction by-products will form near the exhaust port. As the number of growth furnaces accumulates, the deposition near the exhaust port becomes thicker and thicker, gradually blocking the exhaust port, and also affecting the gas flow in the reaction chamber. Therefore, it is necessary to clean the blocked exhaust port.
但是,这种清理通常需要打开反应腔室,流程繁琐且比较消耗生产时间。However, this cleaning process usually requires opening the reaction chamber, which is cumbersome and consumes a lot of production time.

实施例1Example 1
本实施例提供一种半导体沉积设备。参照图3,该半导体沉积设备包括反应腔室100、排气口101、排气管路102、升降抖动装置200、支撑部203以及控制装置300。The present embodiment provides a semiconductor deposition device. Referring to FIG. 3 , the semiconductor deposition device includes a reaction chamber 100 , an exhaust port 101 , an exhaust pipeline 102 , a lifting and shaking device 200 , a support portion 203 , and a control device 300 .
具体地,参照图3,反应腔室100包括相对设置的顶部和底部,在反应腔室100的底部设置有排气口101,该排气口101用于将反应腔室100内的反应废气排至反应腔室100外。排气口101的个数可以为一个或者多个。当反应腔室100的底部包括多个排气口101时,多个排气口101在反应腔室100的底部均匀分布。Specifically, referring to FIG3 , the reaction chamber 100 includes a top and a bottom that are arranged opposite to each other, and an exhaust port 101 is arranged at the bottom of the reaction chamber 100, and the exhaust port 101 is used to discharge the reaction waste gas in the reaction chamber 100 to the outside of the reaction chamber 100. The number of the exhaust ports 101 can be one or more. When the bottom of the reaction chamber 100 includes a plurality of exhaust ports 101, the plurality of exhaust ports 101 are evenly distributed at the bottom of the reaction chamber 100.
排气管路102与排气口101相连通,以将排气口101排出的气体导出。当排气口101的个数为多个时,排气管路102的个数也为多个,并与排气口101一一对应连通。参照图4或5,排气管路102包括管路本体1021以及管路扩张段1022,管路扩张段1022与管路本体1021同轴设置。The exhaust pipeline 102 is connected to the exhaust port 101 to guide the gas exhausted from the exhaust port 101. When there are multiple exhaust ports 101, there are also multiple exhaust pipelines 102, which are connected to the exhaust ports 101 in a one-to-one correspondence. Referring to FIG. 4 or 5, the exhaust pipeline 102 includes a pipeline body 1021 and a pipeline expansion section 1022, and the pipeline expansion section 1022 is coaxially arranged with the pipeline body 1021.
在一实施例中,如图4所示,排气管路102的管路本体1021可以与排气口101直接连接,此时排气管路102的管路本体1021的第一端口与排气口101的端口对应,管路本体1021的内径与排气口101的内径相同,管路本体1021的第二端口与管路扩张段1022连接。管路扩张段1022的下游还可连接又一管路本体1021。In one embodiment, as shown in FIG. 4 , the pipe body 1021 of the exhaust pipe 102 may be directly connected to the exhaust port 101, in which case the first port of the pipe body 1021 of the exhaust pipe 102 corresponds to the port of the exhaust port 101, the inner diameter of the pipe body 1021 is the same as the inner diameter of the exhaust port 101, and the second port of the pipe body 1021 is connected to the pipe expansion section 1022. Another pipe body 1021 may be connected downstream of the pipe expansion section 1022.
在另一实施例中,如图5所示,排气管路102的管路扩张段1022可以与排气口101直接连接,此时管路扩张段1022的第一端口排气口101的端口对应,管路扩张段1022的第二端口与管路本体1021连接。其中管路本体1021的内径可以与排气口101的内径相同,或者管路本体1021的内径可以稍微大于排气口101的内径,以顺利抽出经反应腔室100排气口101进入排气管路102的颗粒和小飞片,避免颗粒和小飞片掉落在管路扩张段1022中堵住管路本体1021与管路扩张段1022的连接处。In another embodiment, as shown in FIG5 , the pipeline expansion section 1022 of the exhaust pipeline 102 may be directly connected to the exhaust port 101, in which case the first port of the pipeline expansion section 1022 corresponds to the port of the exhaust port 101, and the second port of the pipeline expansion section 1022 is connected to the pipeline body 1021. The inner diameter of the pipeline body 1021 may be the same as the inner diameter of the exhaust port 101, or the inner diameter of the pipeline body 1021 may be slightly larger than the inner diameter of the exhaust port 101, so as to smoothly extract particles and small flying pieces that enter the exhaust pipeline 102 through the exhaust port 101 of the reaction chamber 100, and prevent the particles and small flying pieces from falling into the pipeline expansion section 1022 and blocking the connection between the pipeline body 1021 and the pipeline expansion section 1022.
参照图4或5,管路扩张段1022包括管路本体区1022-1和肩部1022-2,管路本体区1022-1的内径与管路本体1021的内径相同,肩部1022-2围绕管路本体区1022-1沿排气管路102的径向扩张设置,也即管路扩张段1022的内径d1大于管路本体1021的d2内径。肩部1022-2为管路扩张段1022相对于管路本体1021扩张的部分,该部分用于容纳升降抖动装置200以及支撑部203,避免直接将升降抖动装置200设置在排气管路102的本体上,在半导体沉积设备正常运行的状态下,升降抖动装置200对于原本排气管路102内的气流导通产生流通阻力,影响反应腔室100的正常排气。并且,管路扩张段1022的内径d1不超过所述管路本体1021的内径d2的3倍,也即,管路扩张段1022的内径d1大于管路本体1021的内径d2,且d1:d2的比例不超过3:1,使得半导体沉积设备正常运行的状态下,升降抖动装置200容纳于管路扩张段1022的肩部1022-2内且靠近管路扩张段1022的内侧壁,使其围成的导气通道和下方管路本体1021相通且两者内径相当或相差不大,能减少或避免气流因排气管变径造成的流通不畅的问题,而如果d1:d2的比例过大,会使管路扩张段1022的体积过大对气流流通造成影响。4 or 5, the pipeline expansion section 1022 includes a pipeline body area 1022-1 and a shoulder 1022-2. The inner diameter of the pipeline body area 1022-1 is the same as the inner diameter of the pipeline body 1021. The shoulder 1022-2 is arranged around the pipeline body area 1022-1 and is expanded along the radial direction of the exhaust pipeline 102, that is, the inner diameter d1 of the pipeline expansion section 1022 is greater than the inner diameter d2 of the pipeline body 1021. The shoulder 1022-2 is the part of the pipeline expansion section 1022 that is expanded relative to the pipeline body 1021. This part is used to accommodate the lifting and shaking device 200 and the support part 203 to avoid directly setting the lifting and shaking device 200 on the body of the exhaust pipeline 102. When the semiconductor deposition equipment is in normal operation, the lifting and shaking device 200 generates flow resistance to the original airflow conduction in the exhaust pipeline 102, affecting the normal exhaust of the reaction chamber 100. Furthermore, the inner diameter d1 of the pipeline expansion section 1022 is not more than 3 times the inner diameter d2 of the pipeline body 1021, that is, the inner diameter d1 of the pipeline expansion section 1022 is larger than the inner diameter d2 of the pipeline body 1021, and the ratio of d1:d2 does not exceed 3:1, so that when the semiconductor deposition equipment is operating normally, the lifting and shaking device 200 is accommodated in the shoulder 1022-2 of the pipeline expansion section 1022 and close to the inner wall of the pipeline expansion section 1022, so that the air guide channel surrounded by it is connected to the pipeline body 1021 below and the inner diameters of the two are equivalent or not much different, which can reduce or avoid the problem of poor airflow caused by the change in diameter of the exhaust pipe. If the ratio of d1:d2 is too large, the volume of the pipeline expansion section 1022 will be too large to affect the airflow.
参照图4或5,升降抖动装置200设置于管路扩张段1022的内壁上,也即肩部1022-2的内壁上。升降抖动装置200的整体自管路扩张段1022的内壁上沿排气管路102的轴向方向往排气口101延伸。升降抖动装置200包括横向伸缩组件201和纵向升降组件202,以具备横向伸缩和纵向升降的功能。在本实施例中,升降抖动装置200包括横向伸缩组件201及纵向升降组件202,横向伸缩组件201的一端与管路扩张段1022的内壁连接,另一端部包括沿排气管路102的径向方向延伸的伸缩部,该横向伸缩组件201与控制装置300连接,以控制伸缩部沿排气管路102的径向方向运动。可选地,纵向升降组件202一端部与伸缩部连接,以使纵向升降组件202在伸缩部的带动下沿排气管路102的径向方向运动,另一端部包括沿排气管路102的轴向方向往排气口101的方向延伸的升降部,控制装置300还与纵向升降组件202连接,以控制升降部沿排气管路102的轴向方向运动。可选地,,横向伸缩组件201包括电动推杆,纵向升降组件202也包括电动推杆,例如横向伸缩组件201中的伸缩部为电动推杆,纵向升降组件202中的升降部为电动推杆。可选地,排气管路102中绕排气管路102的周向分布设置多个升降抖动装置200,排气管路102外设置多个控制装置300,多个控制装置300与多个升降抖动装置200一一对应。Referring to Figure 4 or 5, the lifting and shaking device 200 is arranged on the inner wall of the pipeline expansion section 1022, that is, on the inner wall of the shoulder 1022-2. The lifting and shaking device 200 as a whole extends from the inner wall of the pipeline expansion section 1022 along the axial direction of the exhaust pipeline 102 toward the exhaust port 101. The lifting and shaking device 200 includes a transverse telescopic component 201 and a longitudinal lifting component 202, so as to have the functions of transverse telescopic and longitudinal lifting. In this embodiment, the lifting and shaking device 200 includes a transverse telescopic component 201 and a longitudinal lifting component 202, one end of the transverse telescopic component 201 is connected to the inner wall of the pipeline expansion section 1022, and the other end includes a telescopic portion extending in the radial direction of the exhaust pipeline 102, and the transverse telescopic component 201 is connected to the control device 300 to control the telescopic portion to move in the radial direction of the exhaust pipeline 102. Optionally, one end of the longitudinal lifting assembly 202 is connected to the telescopic part so that the longitudinal lifting assembly 202 moves along the radial direction of the exhaust pipe 102 under the drive of the telescopic part, and the other end includes a lifting part extending along the axial direction of the exhaust pipe 102 toward the exhaust port 101, and the control device 300 is also connected to the longitudinal lifting assembly 202 to control the lifting part to move along the axial direction of the exhaust pipe 102. Optionally, the transverse telescopic assembly 201 includes an electric push rod, and the longitudinal lifting assembly 202 also includes an electric push rod. For example, the telescopic part in the transverse telescopic assembly 201 is an electric push rod, and the lifting part in the longitudinal lifting assembly 202 is an electric push rod. Optionally, a plurality of lifting and shaking devices 200 are arranged in the exhaust pipe 102 around the circumference of the exhaust pipe 102, and a plurality of control devices 300 are arranged outside the exhaust pipe 102, and the plurality of control devices 300 correspond to the plurality of lifting and shaking devices 200 one by one.
参照图4或5,支撑部203位于升降抖动装置200的延伸端,也即纵向升降组件202的延伸端。升降抖动装置200及支撑部203均被肩部1022-2所容纳覆盖。可选地,支撑部203的轮廓为与管路本体1021的轮廓相匹配的弧形或环形,本实施例以两个弧形状的支撑部203为示例,如图6a和6b。当升降抖动装置200的个数为多个时,多个支撑部203一一对应设置在升降部的延伸端。并且,当多个支撑部203同时位于管路本体1021或管路本体区1022-1中时,多个支撑部203沿管路本体1021的内轮廓所在面的周向方向上排布,可以是间隔排布,也可以是无间隔排布。当需要升降抖动装置200在管路本体1021或管路本体区1022-1中使用径向伸缩功能时,相邻支撑部203之间设有间隙,间隙容许各个支撑部203沿管路本体1021或管路本体区1022-1的径向方向运动,也即支撑部203需要间隔排布。反之,当升降抖动装置200不需要在管路本体1021或管路本体区1022-1中使用径向伸缩功能时,可以将多个支撑部203沿管路本体1021的内轮廓的周向方向上设置为无间隔排布。Referring to Figures 4 or 5, the support portion 203 is located at the extended end of the lifting and shaking device 200, that is, the extended end of the longitudinal lifting component 202. The lifting and shaking device 200 and the support portion 203 are both accommodated and covered by the shoulder 1022-2. Optionally, the contour of the support portion 203 is an arc or ring that matches the contour of the pipeline body 1021. This embodiment takes two arc-shaped support portions 203 as an example, as shown in Figures 6a and 6b. When there are multiple lifting and shaking devices 200, multiple support portions 203 are arranged one by one at the extended end of the lifting portion. In addition, when multiple support portions 203 are simultaneously located in the pipeline body 1021 or the pipeline body area 1022-1, the multiple support portions 203 are arranged in the circumferential direction of the surface where the inner contour of the pipeline body 1021 is located, which can be arranged at intervals or without intervals. When the lifting and shaking device 200 is required to use the radial expansion and contraction function in the pipeline body 1021 or the pipeline body area 1022-1, a gap is provided between adjacent support parts 203, and the gap allows each support part 203 to move along the radial direction of the pipeline body 1021 or the pipeline body area 1022-1, that is, the support parts 203 need to be arranged at intervals. Conversely, when the lifting and shaking device 200 does not need to use the radial expansion and contraction function in the pipeline body 1021 or the pipeline body area 1022-1, the plurality of support parts 203 can be arranged without intervals along the circumferential direction of the inner contour of the pipeline body 1021.
参照图3,控制装置300设置于排气管路102外,密封地穿过排气管路102与升降抖动装置200连接,以控制升降抖动装置200运动,从而带动支撑部203的至少部分伸入反应腔室100并相对排气口101运动。3 , the control device 300 is disposed outside the exhaust pipe 102 , and is sealedly connected to the lifting and shaking device 200 through the exhaust pipe 102 to control the movement of the lifting and shaking device 200 , thereby driving at least a portion of the support portion 203 to extend into the reaction chamber 100 and move relative to the exhaust port 101 .
为了判断排气口101是否堵塞,半导体沉积设备可以设置与控制装置300相连接的传感器,例如压力传感器或温度传感器,根据反应腔室100内的压力波动值或者温度波动值、排气口101上游及下游的压差波动值来判断排气口101是否发生堵塞。具体地,可以通过以下实施例实现对温度值及压力值的测量。需要说明的是,本申请中所述的传感器与控制装置300连接可以是直接通信连接或电连接,传感器的信号直接传输给控制装置300,也可以是间接通信连接或电连接,例如传感器的信号传输至半导体沉积设备的工控机,然后工控机将信号传输至控制装置300。本申请中所述的上游、下游是指在排气方向上,气体流动的上游和气体流动的下游。In order to determine whether the exhaust port 101 is blocked, the semiconductor deposition equipment can be provided with a sensor connected to the control device 300, such as a pressure sensor or a temperature sensor, to determine whether the exhaust port 101 is blocked according to the pressure fluctuation value or temperature fluctuation value in the reaction chamber 100 and the pressure difference fluctuation value upstream and downstream of the exhaust port 101. Specifically, the measurement of the temperature value and the pressure value can be achieved through the following embodiments. It should be noted that the connection between the sensor and the control device 300 described in the present application can be a direct communication connection or an electrical connection, and the signal of the sensor is directly transmitted to the control device 300, or it can be an indirect communication connection or an electrical connection, for example, the signal of the sensor is transmitted to the industrial computer of the semiconductor deposition equipment, and then the industrial computer transmits the signal to the control device 300. The upstream and downstream mentioned in the present application refer to the upstream of the gas flow and the downstream of the gas flow in the exhaust direction.
在一实施例中,参照图7,半导体沉积设备还包括第一压力传感器501,第一压力传感器501位于排气口101的上游。第一压力传感器501与控制装置300连接,以将第一压力传感器501的检测值反馈至控制装置300。控制装置300通过第一压力传感器501检测值的波动判断排气口101是否堵塞,进而判断是否需要控制升降抖动装置200带动的支撑部203的至少部分伸入反应腔室100并相对排气口101运动,以对堵塞在排气口101的堵塞物进行清理。示例性地,反应腔室100内发生飞片且被甩落的晶圆掉落至反应腔室100的排气口101上,或反应副产物集聚在排气口101上,则会导致排气管路102堵塞,对反应腔室100中的气体流动造成影响,此时,排气口101的上游的压力值相对于半导体沉积设备正常运行状态而言会变大。由此,通过在排气口101的上游安装第一压力传感器501,通过第一压力传感器501检测值的波动可以判断该处排气口是否被飞片或反应副产物堵塞,是否需要进行清理。如判断需进行清理,则由控制装置300控制升降抖动装置200带动的支撑部203的至少部分伸入反应腔室100并相对排气口101运动,以将甩落在排气口101上的晶圆或反应副产物从排气口101处抖落。In one embodiment, referring to FIG. 7 , the semiconductor deposition device further includes a first pressure sensor 501, which is located upstream of the exhaust port 101. The first pressure sensor 501 is connected to the control device 300 to feed back the detection value of the first pressure sensor 501 to the control device 300. The control device 300 determines whether the exhaust port 101 is blocked by the fluctuation of the detection value of the first pressure sensor 501, and then determines whether it is necessary to control at least part of the support portion 203 driven by the lifting and shaking device 200 to extend into the reaction chamber 100 and move relative to the exhaust port 101, so as to clean the blockage in the exhaust port 101. Exemplarily, if a flying wafer occurs in the reaction chamber 100 and the wafer is thrown off and falls on the exhaust port 101 of the reaction chamber 100, or the reaction by-products gather on the exhaust port 101, the exhaust pipe 102 will be blocked, which will affect the gas flow in the reaction chamber 100. At this time, the pressure value upstream of the exhaust port 101 will be larger than that of the normal operation of the semiconductor deposition device. Therefore, by installing the first pressure sensor 501 upstream of the exhaust port 101, the fluctuation of the detection value of the first pressure sensor 501 can be used to determine whether the exhaust port is blocked by flying wafers or reaction byproducts and whether it needs to be cleaned. If it is determined that cleaning is required, the control device 300 controls at least a portion of the support portion 203 driven by the lifting and shaking device 200 to extend into the reaction chamber 100 and move relative to the exhaust port 101, so as to shake off the wafers or reaction byproducts that have fallen on the exhaust port 101 from the exhaust port 101.
在一可选实施例中,参照图7,半导体沉积设备还包括第一压力传感器501和第二压力传感器502,第一压力传感器501位于排气口101的上游。第二压力传感器502位于排气管路102中升降抖动装置200的下游,第一压力传感器501及第二压力传感器502分别与控制装置300连接,以将第一压力传感器501和第二压力传感器502的检测值反馈至控制装置300,控制装置300接收第一压力传感器501及第二压力传感器502的检测值,通过第一压力传感器501和第二压力传感器502检测值之差判断排气口101是否堵塞,进而确定是否需要通过控制升降抖动装置200带动的支撑部203至少部分伸入反应腔室100并沿排气管路102的轴向方向上相对排气口101运动,以对堵塞在排气口101的堵塞物进行清理。示例性地,反应腔室100内发生飞片且被甩落的晶圆掉落至反应腔室100的排气口101上,或反应副产物集聚在排气口101上,则会导致排气管路102堵塞,此时,排气口101的上游的压力值和下游的压力值相对于半导体沉积设备正常运行状态而言会变大。由此,通过在排气口101的上游安装第一压力传感器501,排气管路102中升降抖动装置200的下游安装第二压力传感器502,通过第一压力传感器501和第二压力传感器502检测值之差的波动可以判断该处排气口是否需要进行清理。如判断需进行清理,则由控制装置300控制升降抖动装置200带动的支撑部203至少部分伸入反应腔室100并相对排气口101运动,以将甩落在排气口101上的晶圆或反应副产物从排气口101处抖落。In an optional embodiment, referring to FIG. 7 , the semiconductor deposition apparatus further includes a first pressure sensor 501 and a second pressure sensor 502, wherein the first pressure sensor 501 is located upstream of the exhaust port 101. The second pressure sensor 502 is located downstream of the lifting and shaking device 200 in the exhaust pipe 102, and the first pressure sensor 501 and the second pressure sensor 502 are respectively connected to the control device 300 to feed back the detection values of the first pressure sensor 501 and the second pressure sensor 502 to the control device 300, and the control device 300 receives the detection values of the first pressure sensor 501 and the second pressure sensor 502, and determines whether the exhaust port 101 is blocked by the difference between the detection values of the first pressure sensor 501 and the second pressure sensor 502, and further determines whether it is necessary to control the support portion 203 driven by the lifting and shaking device 200 to at least partially extend into the reaction chamber 100 and move relative to the exhaust port 101 along the axial direction of the exhaust pipe 102, so as to clean the blockage in the exhaust port 101. Exemplarily, if flying wafers occur in the reaction chamber 100 and the wafers that are thrown off fall onto the exhaust port 101 of the reaction chamber 100, or if reaction byproducts gather on the exhaust port 101, the exhaust pipe 102 will be blocked. At this time, the pressure value upstream and downstream of the exhaust port 101 will become larger relative to the normal operation of the semiconductor deposition equipment. Therefore, by installing a first pressure sensor 501 upstream of the exhaust port 101 and installing a second pressure sensor 502 downstream of the lifting and shaking device 200 in the exhaust pipe 102, it can be determined whether the exhaust port needs to be cleaned by the fluctuation of the difference between the detection values of the first pressure sensor 501 and the second pressure sensor 502. If it is determined that cleaning is required, the control device 300 controls the support portion 203 driven by the lifting and shaking device 200 to at least partially extend into the reaction chamber 100 and move relative to the exhaust port 101, so as to shake off the wafers or reaction byproducts that fall on the exhaust port 101 from the exhaust port 101.
可选地,排气管路102中升降抖动装置200的下游还可以设置阀门700,可以通过控制阀门700使反应腔室100内的压力维持在半导体沉积工艺所需的压力。并且,后续还可以通过阀门700的张开度数判读反应腔室100内的排气口101是否堵塞。在本实施例中,阀门700可以采用蝶阀。Optionally, a valve 700 may be provided downstream of the lifting and shaking device 200 in the exhaust pipeline 102, and the pressure in the reaction chamber 100 may be maintained at the pressure required by the semiconductor deposition process by controlling the valve 700. In addition, the opening degree of the valve 700 may be used to determine whether the exhaust port 101 in the reaction chamber 100 is blocked. In this embodiment, the valve 700 may be a butterfly valve.
排气管路102上还可以设置过滤装置400,过滤装置400设置于排气管路102的拐角处,与反应腔室100的排气口101相对应,且过滤装置400设置于升降抖动装置200与第二压力传感器502之间。该过滤装置400能够过滤自反应腔室100内排出的颗粒物或者小碎片,避免排气管路102发生堵塞,并确保管路的气密性。根据第一压力传感器501和第二压力传感器502,可以判断更新过滤装置400的时机。示例性地,当沉积反应完成后,机械手将晶圆承载台103或晶圆承载台103上的晶圆从反应腔室100中传出至传片腔105,此时可观察到晶圆承载台103上是否有晶圆缺失,如有晶圆缺失,则判断存在飞片情况,如无晶圆缺失,则判断不存在飞片情况。或者,例如随着生长炉数的累加,在排气口101附近的反应副产物的寄生沉积越来越厚,逐渐对排气口101形成堵塞,因此,也可以观察半导体沉积设备的生长炉数是否超出预设炉数。当不存在飞片情况,且生长炉数未超出预设炉数,若第一压力传感器501与第二压力传感器502的读数差较大,则判断排气口101未被堵塞,而是需要更换过滤装置400。A filter device 400 can also be provided on the exhaust line 102, and the filter device 400 is provided at the corner of the exhaust line 102, corresponding to the exhaust port 101 of the reaction chamber 100, and the filter device 400 is provided between the lifting and shaking device 200 and the second pressure sensor 502. The filter device 400 can filter particulate matter or small debris discharged from the reaction chamber 100, avoid blockage of the exhaust line 102, and ensure the air tightness of the line. According to the first pressure sensor 501 and the second pressure sensor 502, the timing of updating the filter device 400 can be determined. Exemplarily, when the deposition reaction is completed, the manipulator transfers the wafer carrier 103 or the wafer on the wafer carrier 103 from the reaction chamber 100 to the wafer transfer chamber 105. At this time, it can be observed whether there is a wafer missing on the wafer carrier 103. If there is a wafer missing, it is judged that there is a flying wafer situation, and if there is no wafer missing, it is judged that there is no flying wafer situation. Alternatively, for example, as the number of growth furnaces increases, the parasitic deposition of reaction byproducts near the exhaust port 101 becomes thicker and thicker, gradually blocking the exhaust port 101. Therefore, it is also possible to observe whether the number of growth furnaces of the semiconductor deposition equipment exceeds the preset number of furnaces. When there is no flying wafer situation and the number of growth furnaces does not exceed the preset number of furnaces, if the reading difference between the first pressure sensor 501 and the second pressure sensor 502 is large, it is determined that the exhaust port 101 is not blocked, but the filter device 400 needs to be replaced.
在一可选实施例中,参照图8,半导体沉积设备还包括温度传感器600,温度传感器600位于排气口101附近,温度传感器600与控制装置300连接,以将温度传感器600的检测值反馈至控制装置300。,操作人员或者控制装置300通过温度传感器600的检测值的波动判断排气口101是否堵塞,进而确定是否需要通过控制升降抖动装置200带动的支撑部203至少部分伸入反应腔室100并相对排气口101运动,以对堵塞在排气口101的堵塞物进行清理。示例性地,反应腔室100内发生飞片且被甩落的晶圆掉落至反应腔室100的排气口101上,或反应副产物集聚在排气口101上,则会导致排气管路102堵塞,对反应腔室100中的气体流动造成影响,此时,排气口101附近的温度相对于半导体沉积设备正常运行状态而言会变高。由此,通过在该处安装温度传感器600,通过温度传感器600检测值的波动可以判断该处排气口是否需要进行清理。如判断需进行清理,则由控制装置件300控制升降抖动装置200带动的支撑部203至少部分伸入反应腔室100并相对排气口101运动,以将甩落在排气口101上的晶圆或反应副产物从排气口101处抖落。In an optional embodiment, referring to FIG. 8 , the semiconductor deposition device further includes a temperature sensor 600, which is located near the exhaust port 101, and is connected to the control device 300 to feed back the detection value of the temperature sensor 600 to the control device 300. The operator or the control device 300 determines whether the exhaust port 101 is blocked by the fluctuation of the detection value of the temperature sensor 600, and then determines whether it is necessary to control the support part 203 driven by the lifting and shaking device 200 to at least partially extend into the reaction chamber 100 and move relative to the exhaust port 101 to clean the obstruction blocked in the exhaust port 101. Exemplarily, if a flying wafer occurs in the reaction chamber 100 and the wafer is thrown off and falls on the exhaust port 101 of the reaction chamber 100, or the reaction by-products gather on the exhaust port 101, the exhaust pipe 102 will be blocked, which will affect the gas flow in the reaction chamber 100. At this time, the temperature near the exhaust port 101 will become higher than the normal operation state of the semiconductor deposition device. Therefore, by installing the temperature sensor 600 at the location, it can be determined whether the exhaust port at the location needs to be cleaned by the fluctuation of the detection value of the temperature sensor 600. If it is determined that cleaning is required, the control device 300 controls the support portion 203 driven by the lifting and shaking device 200 to at least partially extend into the reaction chamber 100 and move relative to the exhaust port 101, so as to shake off the wafers or reaction byproducts that have fallen on the exhaust port 101 from the exhaust port 101.
在一可选实施例中,参照图7,本实施例中反应腔室100中可以设置多个排气口101,多个排气管路102与多个排气口101一一对应,在每个排气管路102均设置有升降抖动装置200和与之对应的控制装置300,并在每个排气口101的上游均对应设置一个第一压力传感器501,每个第一压力传感器501均分别与对应的排气口101上设置的控制装置300连接。可以根据各个排气口101对应的第一压力传感器501的检测值相对于各个第一压力传感器501的检测值的平均压力值是否发生波动作为各个排气口101是否被堵塞的参考依据。例如,控制装置300通过对比每个第一压力传感器501的检测值与各个第一压力传感器501的检测值的平均压力值的差值来判断该第一压力传感器501对应的排气口101是否堵塞,进而确定是否需要通过控制升降抖动装置200带动的支撑部203至少部分伸入反应腔室100并相对对应的排气口101运动,以对堵塞在对应的排气口101的堵塞物进行清理。示例性地,反应腔室100内发生飞片且被甩落的晶圆掉落至反应腔室100的某一个排气口101上,或反应副产物集聚在该排气口101上,则会导致该排气口对应的排气管路102堵塞,对反应腔室100中的气体流动造成影响,此时,该排气口101上游的压力值相对于其他排气口101上游的压力值而言会变大。由此,若某一排气口101对应的第一压力传感器501的检测值明显高于其他排气口101对应的第一压力传感器501的检测值,也即某一排气口101对应的第一压力传感器501的检测值明显超出平均压力值,则判断该排气口101发生堵塞情况,则由该排气口101对应的控制装置300控制该排气口101对应的升降抖动装置200带动的支撑部203至少部分伸入反应腔室100并相对该排气口101运动,以将甩落在该排气口101上的晶圆或反应副产物从该排气口101处抖落。在又一可选实施例中,参照图7,本实施例中反应腔室100中可以设置多个排气口101,多个排气管路102与多个排气口101一一对应,在每个排气管路102均设置有升降抖动装置200和与之对应的控制装置300,每个排气口101的上游均对应设置一个第一压力传感器501,每个排气管路102中升降抖动装置200的下游均对应设置一个第二压力传感器502,每个第一压力传感器501和第二压力传感器502均与对应的排气口101上设置的控制装置300连接。可以根据各个排气口101对应的第一压力传感器501和第二压力传感器502检测值之差相对于各个排气口101对应的的第一压力传感器501和第二压力传感器502检测值之差的平均值是否发生波动作为各个排气口101是否被堵塞的参考依据。例如,控制装置300通过对比某一排气口101对应的第一压力传感器501和第二压力传感器502检测值之差与各个排气口101对应的的第一压力传感器501和第二压力传感器502检测值之差的平均值的差值来判断该排气口101是否堵塞,进而确定是否需要通过控制升降抖动装置200带动的支撑部203至少部分伸入反应腔室100并相对该排气口101运动,以对堵塞在该排气口101的堵塞物进行清理。示例性地,反应腔室100内发生飞片且被甩落的晶圆掉落至反应腔室100的某一个排气口101上,或反应副产物集聚在该排气口101上,则会导致该排气口对应的排气管路102堵塞,对反应腔室100中的气体流动造成影响,此时,该排气口101对应的的第一压力传感器501和第二压力传感器502检测值之差相对于其他排气口101对应的第一压力传感器501和第二压力传感器502检测值之差而言会变大。由此,若某一排气口101对应的第一压力传感器501和第二压力传感器502检测值之差明显高于其他排气口101对应的第一压力传感器501和第二压力传感器502检测值之差,也即某一排气口101对应的第一压力传感器501和第二压力传感器502检测值之差明显超出各个排气口101对应的的第一压力传感器501和第二压力传感器502检测值之差的平均值,则判断该排气口101发生堵塞情况,则由该排气口101对应的控制装置300控制该排气口101对应的升降抖动装置200带动的支撑部203至少部分伸入反应腔室100并相对该排气口101运动,以将甩落在该排气口101上的晶圆或反应副产物从该排气口101处抖落。In an optional embodiment, referring to FIG. 7 , a plurality of exhaust ports 101 may be provided in the reaction chamber 100 in this embodiment, and a plurality of exhaust pipes 102 correspond to the plurality of exhaust ports 101 one by one, and a lifting and shaking device 200 and a corresponding control device 300 are provided in each exhaust pipe 102, and a first pressure sensor 501 is provided upstream of each exhaust port 101, and each first pressure sensor 501 is respectively connected to the control device 300 provided on the corresponding exhaust port 101. Whether the detection value of the first pressure sensor 501 corresponding to each exhaust port 101 fluctuates relative to the average pressure value of the detection value of each first pressure sensor 501 can be used as a reference for whether each exhaust port 101 is blocked. For example, the control device 300 determines whether the exhaust port 101 corresponding to the first pressure sensor 501 is blocked by comparing the difference between the detection value of each first pressure sensor 501 and the average pressure value of the detection values of each first pressure sensor 501, and further determines whether it is necessary to control the support portion 203 driven by the lifting and shaking device 200 to at least partially extend into the reaction chamber 100 and move relative to the corresponding exhaust port 101, so as to clean the obstruction blocked in the corresponding exhaust port 101. Exemplarily, if a wafer flying occurs in the reaction chamber 100 and the wafer is thrown off and falls on a certain exhaust port 101 of the reaction chamber 100, or the reaction by-products gather on the exhaust port 101, the exhaust pipeline 102 corresponding to the exhaust port will be blocked, which will affect the gas flow in the reaction chamber 100. At this time, the pressure value upstream of the exhaust port 101 will become larger than the pressure value upstream of other exhaust ports 101. Therefore, if the detection value of the first pressure sensor 501 corresponding to a certain exhaust port 101 is significantly higher than the detection values of the first pressure sensors 501 corresponding to other exhaust ports 101, that is, the detection value of the first pressure sensor 501 corresponding to a certain exhaust port 101 significantly exceeds the average pressure value, then it is determined that the exhaust port 101 is blocked, and the control device 300 corresponding to the exhaust port 101 controls the support part 203 driven by the lifting and shaking device 200 corresponding to the exhaust port 101 to at least partially extend into the reaction chamber 100 and move relative to the exhaust port 101, so as to shake off the wafers or reaction by-products that have fallen on the exhaust port 101 from the exhaust port 101. In another optional embodiment, referring to FIG. 7 , in this embodiment, a plurality of exhaust ports 101 may be provided in the reaction chamber 100, a plurality of exhaust pipes 102 correspond to the plurality of exhaust ports 101 one by one, a lifting and shaking device 200 and a corresponding control device 300 are provided in each exhaust pipe 102, a first pressure sensor 501 is provided upstream of each exhaust port 101, a second pressure sensor 502 is provided downstream of the lifting and shaking device 200 in each exhaust pipe 102, and each first pressure sensor 501 and second pressure sensor 502 are connected to the control device 300 provided on the corresponding exhaust port 101. Whether the difference between the detection values of the first pressure sensor 501 and the second pressure sensor 502 corresponding to each exhaust port 101 fluctuates relative to the average value of the difference between the detection values of the first pressure sensor 501 and the second pressure sensor 502 corresponding to each exhaust port 101 can be used as a reference for whether each exhaust port 101 is blocked. For example, the control device 300 determines whether the exhaust port 101 is blocked by comparing the difference between the detection values of the first pressure sensor 501 and the second pressure sensor 502 corresponding to a certain exhaust port 101 with the average value of the difference between the detection values of the first pressure sensor 501 and the second pressure sensor 502 corresponding to each exhaust port 101, and further determines whether it is necessary to control the support part 203 driven by the lifting and shaking device 200 to at least partially extend into the reaction chamber 100 and move relative to the exhaust port 101 to clear the blockage in the exhaust port 101. For example, if flying wafers occur in the reaction chamber 100 and the dropped wafers fall onto a certain exhaust port 101 of the reaction chamber 100, or reaction by-products gather on the exhaust port 101, the exhaust line 102 corresponding to the exhaust port will be blocked, affecting the gas flow in the reaction chamber 100. At this time, the difference between the detection values of the first pressure sensor 501 and the second pressure sensor 502 corresponding to the exhaust port 101 will become larger than the difference between the detection values of the first pressure sensor 501 and the second pressure sensor 502 corresponding to other exhaust ports 101. Therefore, if the difference between the detection values of the first pressure sensor 501 and the second pressure sensor 502 corresponding to a certain exhaust port 101 is significantly higher than the difference between the detection values of the first pressure sensor 501 and the second pressure sensor 502 corresponding to other exhaust ports 101, that is, the difference between the detection values of the first pressure sensor 501 and the second pressure sensor 502 corresponding to a certain exhaust port 101 is significantly higher than the average value of the difference between the detection values of the first pressure sensor 501 and the second pressure sensor 502 corresponding to each exhaust port 101, then it is determined that the exhaust port 101 is blocked, and the control device 300 corresponding to the exhaust port 101 controls the support part 203 driven by the lifting and shaking device 200 corresponding to the exhaust port 101 to at least partially extend into the reaction chamber 100 and move relative to the exhaust port 101, so as to shake off the wafers or reaction by-products that have fallen on the exhaust port 101 from the exhaust port 101.
在又一可选实施例中,参照图8,本实施例中反应腔室100中可以设置多个排气口101,多个排气管路102与多个排气口101一一对应,在每个排气管路102均设置有升降抖动装置200和与之对应的控制装置300,每个排气口101附近均对应设置一个温度传感器600,每个温度传感器600分别与对应的排气口101上设置的控制装置300连接。,可以根据各个排气口101对应的温度传感器600的检测值相对于各个温度传感器600的检测值的平均温度值是否发生波动作为各个排气口101是否被堵塞的参考依据。例如,控制装置300通过对比每个温度传感器600的检测值与各个温度传感器600的检测值的平均温度值的差值来判断该温度传感器600对应的排气口101是否堵塞,进而确定是否需要通过控制升降抖动装置200带动的支撑部203至少部分伸入反应腔室100并相对对应的排气口101运动,以对堵塞在对应的排气口101的堵塞物进行清理。示例性地,反应腔室100内发生飞片且被甩落的晶圆掉落至反应腔室100的某一个排气口101上,或反应副产物集聚在该排气口101上,则会导致该排气口对应的排气管路102堵塞,对反应腔室100中的气体流动造成影响,此时,该排气口101附近的温度值相对于其他排气口101附近的温度值而言会变大。由此,若某一排气口101对应的温度传感器600的检测值明显高于其他排气口101对应的温度传感器600的检测值,也即某一排气口101对应的温度传感器600的检测值明显超出平均温度值,则判断该排气口101发生堵塞情况,则由该排气口101对应的控制装置300控制该排气口101对应的升降抖动装置200带动的支撑部203至少部分伸入反应腔室100并相对该排气口101运动,以将甩落在该排气口101上的晶圆或反应副产物从该排气口101处抖落。In another optional embodiment, referring to FIG. 8 , in this embodiment, a plurality of exhaust ports 101 may be provided in the reaction chamber 100, a plurality of exhaust pipes 102 correspond to the plurality of exhaust ports 101 one by one, a lifting and shaking device 200 and a corresponding control device 300 are provided in each exhaust pipe 102, a temperature sensor 600 is provided near each exhaust port 101, and each temperature sensor 600 is connected to the control device 300 provided on the corresponding exhaust port 101. Whether the detection value of the temperature sensor 600 corresponding to each exhaust port 101 fluctuates relative to the average temperature value of the detection value of each temperature sensor 600 can be used as a reference for whether each exhaust port 101 is blocked. For example, the control device 300 determines whether the exhaust port 101 corresponding to the temperature sensor 600 is blocked by comparing the difference between the detection value of each temperature sensor 600 and the average temperature value of the detection values of each temperature sensor 600, and then determines whether it is necessary to control the support part 203 driven by the lifting and shaking device 200 to at least partially extend into the reaction chamber 100 and move relative to the corresponding exhaust port 101, so as to clean the obstruction blocked in the corresponding exhaust port 101. Exemplarily, if flying wafers occur in the reaction chamber 100 and the wafers that are thrown off fall on a certain exhaust port 101 of the reaction chamber 100, or reaction by-products gather on the exhaust port 101, the exhaust pipe 102 corresponding to the exhaust port will be blocked, which will affect the gas flow in the reaction chamber 100. At this time, the temperature value near the exhaust port 101 will become larger than the temperature value near other exhaust ports 101. Therefore, if the detection value of the temperature sensor 600 corresponding to a certain exhaust port 101 is significantly higher than the detection values of the temperature sensors 600 corresponding to other exhaust ports 101, that is, the detection value of the temperature sensor 600 corresponding to a certain exhaust port 101 significantly exceeds the average temperature value, then it is determined that the exhaust port 101 is blocked, and the control device 300 corresponding to the exhaust port 101 controls the support part 203 driven by the lifting and shaking device 200 corresponding to the exhaust port 101 to at least partially extend into the reaction chamber 100 and move relative to the exhaust port 101, so as to shake off the wafers or reaction by-products that have fallen on the exhaust port 101 from the exhaust port 101.

S2:判断排气口是否发生堵塞;S2: Determine whether the exhaust port is blocked;
具体地,参照图7或8,在判断排气口101是否发生堵塞之前,可以首先观察半导体沉积设备的反应腔室100内是否存在飞片情况。一般在反应腔室100内的沉积反应完成之后,机械手将晶圆承载台103或晶圆承载台103上的晶圆从反应腔室100中传出至传片腔105,此时可观察到晶圆承载台103上是否有晶圆缺失,如有晶圆缺失,则判断存在飞片情况,如无晶圆缺失,则判断不存在飞片情况。当观察到反应腔室100内存在飞片情况时,执行下一步判断飞片是否堵塞反应腔室100的排气口101。Specifically, referring to FIG. 7 or 8, before determining whether the exhaust port 101 is blocked, it is possible to first observe whether there are flying chips in the reaction chamber 100 of the semiconductor deposition equipment. Generally, after the deposition reaction in the reaction chamber 100 is completed, the robot transfers the wafer carrier 103 or the wafer on the wafer carrier 103 from the reaction chamber 100 to the wafer transfer chamber 105. At this time, it can be observed whether there are missing wafers on the wafer carrier 103. If there are missing wafers, it is determined that there are flying chips. If there are no missing wafers, it is determined that there are no flying chips. When it is observed that there are flying chips in the reaction chamber 100, the next step is performed to determine whether the flying chips block the exhaust port 101 of the reaction chamber 100.
需要说明的是,排气口101也可能由于除飞片之外的其他原因堵塞,例如随着生长炉数的累加,在排气口101附近的反应副产物的寄生沉积越来越厚,逐渐对排气口101形成堵塞。因此,在判断排气口101是否发生堵塞之前,也可以首先观察半导体沉积设备的生长炉数是否超出预设炉数。当观察到生长炉数超出预设炉数时,执行下一步判断反应副产物是否堵塞反应腔室100的排气口101。It should be noted that the exhaust port 101 may also be blocked due to other reasons besides flying wafers. For example, as the number of growth furnaces increases, the parasitic deposition of reaction byproducts near the exhaust port 101 becomes thicker and thicker, gradually blocking the exhaust port 101. Therefore, before determining whether the exhaust port 101 is blocked, it is also possible to first observe whether the number of growth furnaces of the semiconductor deposition equipment exceeds the preset number of furnaces. When it is observed that the number of growth furnaces exceeds the preset number of furnaces, the next step is performed to determine whether the reaction byproducts block the exhaust port 101 of the reaction chamber 100.
在判断是否堵塞反应腔室100的排气口101时,可以通过以下方案实现:When determining whether the exhaust port 101 of the reaction chamber 100 is blocked, the following scheme can be used:
在一实施方式中,参照图7,在排气口101的上游设置第一压力传感器501,获得第一压力传感器501的检测值。设定第一预设压力,将该预设压力作为判断排气口101是否堵塞的依据。在设定第一预设压力并获取第一压力传感器501的检测值之后,判断第一压力传感器501的压力检测值是否超出第一预设压力。当第一压力传感器501的压力检测值超出第一预设压力时,判断排气口101发生堵塞。当第一压力传感器501的压力检测值不大于第一预设压力时,判断排气口101未发生堵塞。第一预设压力的压力值可以根据反应腔室100内的实际情况进行设置,在此不再具体限定。In one embodiment, referring to FIG. 7 , a first pressure sensor 501 is provided upstream of the exhaust port 101, and a detection value of the first pressure sensor 501 is obtained. A first preset pressure is set, and the preset pressure is used as a basis for determining whether the exhaust port 101 is blocked. After setting the first preset pressure and obtaining the detection value of the first pressure sensor 501, it is determined whether the pressure detection value of the first pressure sensor 501 exceeds the first preset pressure. When the pressure detection value of the first pressure sensor 501 exceeds the first preset pressure, it is determined that the exhaust port 101 is blocked. When the pressure detection value of the first pressure sensor 501 is not greater than the first preset pressure, it is determined that the exhaust port 101 is not blocked. The pressure value of the first preset pressure can be set according to the actual situation in the reaction chamber 100, and is not specifically limited here.
在一实施方式中,参照图7,在排气口101的上游设置第一压力传感器501,获得第一压力传感器501的检测值。在排气管路102中升降抖动装置200的下游设置第二压力传感器502,获得第二压力传感器502的检测值。设定第二预设压力,作为判断排气口101是否堵塞的依据。根据第二预设压力、第一压力传感器501的读数、第二压力传感器502的读数,判断第一压力传感器501和第二压力传感器502之间的压力检测值之差是否超出第二预设压力。当压力检测值之差超出第二预设压力时,判定排气口101发生堵塞。当压力检测值之差不大于第二预设压力时,判定排气口101未发生堵塞。在本实施例中,第二预设压力值为50毫帕。同一排气管路102上第一压力传感器501P1和第二压力传感器502P2的压力差(P1-P2)不超过50毫帕,P1值的压力浮动范围在±5%以内,可以判断排气口101没有堵塞。反之,同一排气管路102上第一压力传感器501的P1值和第一压力传感器501的P2值的压力差(P1-P2)超过50毫帕,P1值的压力呈增加趋势,则判断排气口101堵塞。In one embodiment, referring to FIG. 7 , a first pressure sensor 501 is provided upstream of the exhaust port 101 to obtain a detection value of the first pressure sensor 501. A second pressure sensor 502 is provided downstream of the lifting and shaking device 200 in the exhaust pipe 102 to obtain a detection value of the second pressure sensor 502. A second preset pressure is set as a basis for determining whether the exhaust port 101 is blocked. According to the second preset pressure, the reading of the first pressure sensor 501, and the reading of the second pressure sensor 502, it is determined whether the difference in the pressure detection values between the first pressure sensor 501 and the second pressure sensor 502 exceeds the second preset pressure. When the difference in the pressure detection values exceeds the second preset pressure, it is determined that the exhaust port 101 is blocked. When the difference in the pressure detection values is not greater than the second preset pressure, it is determined that the exhaust port 101 is not blocked. In this embodiment, the second preset pressure value is 50 mPa. If the pressure difference (P1-P2) between the first pressure sensor 501P1 and the second pressure sensor 502P2 on the same exhaust pipeline 102 does not exceed 50 mPa, and the pressure floating range of the P1 value is within ±5%, it can be determined that the exhaust port 101 is not blocked. On the contrary, if the pressure difference (P1-P2) between the P1 value of the first pressure sensor 501 and the P2 value of the first pressure sensor 501 on the same exhaust pipeline 102 exceeds 50 mPa, and the pressure of the P1 value shows an increasing trend, it is determined that the exhaust port 101 is blocked.
可选地,参照图7,排气管路102中升降抖动装置200的下游还可以设置阀门700,该阀门700可以为蝶阀。在判断排气口101是否堵塞的时,可以同时根据压力差值的浮动范围以及蝶阀的张开角度,对排气口101的堵塞情况进行判断。当同一排气管路102上第一压力传感器501的P1值和第一压力传感器501的P2值的压力差(P1-P2)不超过50毫帕,第一压力传感器501P1值的压力浮动范围在±5%以内,蝶阀的张开角度的浮动范围在±5%以内时,可以判定排气口101没有堵塞。同一排气管路102上第一压力传感器501的P1和第一压力传感器501的P2的压力差(P1-P2)超过50毫帕,第一压力传感器501的P1值的压力呈增加趋势,蝶阀张角呈增大趋势,则排气口101堵塞。Optionally, referring to FIG. 7 , a valve 700 may be provided downstream of the lifting and shaking device 200 in the exhaust pipe 102, and the valve 700 may be a butterfly valve. When judging whether the exhaust port 101 is blocked, the blockage of the exhaust port 101 may be judged based on the floating range of the pressure difference and the opening angle of the butterfly valve. When the pressure difference (P1-P2) between the P1 value of the first pressure sensor 501 and the P2 value of the first pressure sensor 501 on the same exhaust pipe 102 does not exceed 50 mPa, the pressure floating range of the P1 value of the first pressure sensor 501 is within ±5%, and the floating range of the opening angle of the butterfly valve is within ±5%, it can be determined that the exhaust port 101 is not blocked. When the pressure difference (P1-P2) between the P1 value of the first pressure sensor 501 and the P2 value of the first pressure sensor 501 on the same exhaust pipe 102 exceeds 50 mPa, the pressure of the P1 value of the first pressure sensor 501 is increasing, and the opening angle of the butterfly valve is increasing, the exhaust port 101 is blocked.
在一实施方式中,参照图7,反应腔室100底部均匀设置多个排气口101,多个排气管路102与多个排气口101一一对应。在各个排气口101的上游设置第一压力传感器501,获得与各个排气口101对应的第一压力传感器501的检测值及各个第一压力传感器501的检测值的平均压力值。设定第三预设压力,判断各个第一压力传感器501的检测值与平均压力值之差是否超出第三预设压力。当任一第一压力传感器501的检测值与平均压力值之差超出第三预设压力时,判定对应的排气口101发生堵塞。当任一第一压力传感器501的检测值与平均压力值之差不大于第三预设压力时,判定对应的排气口101未发生堵塞。In one embodiment, referring to FIG. 7 , a plurality of exhaust ports 101 are evenly arranged at the bottom of the reaction chamber 100, and a plurality of exhaust pipes 102 correspond to the plurality of exhaust ports 101 one by one. A first pressure sensor 501 is arranged upstream of each exhaust port 101 to obtain the detection value of the first pressure sensor 501 corresponding to each exhaust port 101 and the average pressure value of the detection value of each first pressure sensor 501. A third preset pressure is set to determine whether the difference between the detection value of each first pressure sensor 501 and the average pressure value exceeds the third preset pressure. When the difference between the detection value of any first pressure sensor 501 and the average pressure value exceeds the third preset pressure, it is determined that the corresponding exhaust port 101 is blocked. When the difference between the detection value of any first pressure sensor 501 and the average pressure value is not greater than the third preset pressure, it is determined that the corresponding exhaust port 101 is not blocked.
在一实施方式中,参照图8,在排气口101附近设置温度传感器600,并设定第一预设温度,将该第一预设温度作为判断排气口101是否堵塞的依据。在判断排气口101是否堵塞时,根据温度传感器600的读数以及第一预设温度,判断温度传感器600的温度检测值是否超出第一预设温度。当温度检测值超出第一预设温度时,判断排气口101发生堵塞。当温度检测值不大于第一预设温度时,判断排气口101未发生堵塞。In one embodiment, referring to FIG. 8 , a temperature sensor 600 is provided near the exhaust port 101, and a first preset temperature is set, and the first preset temperature is used as a basis for determining whether the exhaust port 101 is blocked. When determining whether the exhaust port 101 is blocked, it is determined whether the temperature detection value of the temperature sensor 600 exceeds the first preset temperature based on the reading of the temperature sensor 600 and the first preset temperature. When the temperature detection value exceeds the first preset temperature, it is determined that the exhaust port 101 is blocked. When the temperature detection value is not greater than the first preset temperature, it is determined that the exhaust port 101 is not blocked.
在一实施方式中,参照图8,当反应腔室100底部均匀设置多个排气口101,多个排气管路102与多个排气口101一一对应。在各个排气口101附近设置温度传感器600,获得与各个排气口101对应的温度传感器600的检测值及各个温度传感器600的检测值的平均温度值。设定第二预设温度,判断各个温度传感器600的检测值与平均温度值之差是否超出平均温度值。当任一温度传感器600的检测值与平均温度值之差超出第二预设温度时,判定对应的排气口101发生堵塞。当任一温度传感器600的检测值与平均温度值之差不大于第二预设温度时,判定对应的排气口101未发生堵塞。In one embodiment, referring to FIG. 8 , when a plurality of exhaust ports 101 are evenly arranged at the bottom of the reaction chamber 100, a plurality of exhaust pipes 102 correspond to the plurality of exhaust ports 101 one by one. A temperature sensor 600 is arranged near each exhaust port 101 to obtain the detection value of the temperature sensor 600 corresponding to each exhaust port 101 and the average temperature value of the detection value of each temperature sensor 600. A second preset temperature is set to determine whether the difference between the detection value of each temperature sensor 600 and the average temperature value exceeds the average temperature value. When the difference between the detection value of any temperature sensor 600 and the average temperature value exceeds the second preset temperature, it is determined that the corresponding exhaust port 101 is blocked. When the difference between the detection value of any temperature sensor 600 and the average temperature value is not greater than the second preset temperature, it is determined that the corresponding exhaust port 101 is not blocked.
S3:当判断排气口发生堵塞时,通过控制装置控制升降抖动装置运动,使支撑部的至少部分伸入反应腔室并相对排气口101运动;S3: When it is determined that the exhaust port is blocked, the control device controls the lifting and shaking device to move, so that at least part of the support portion extends into the reaction chamber and moves relative to the exhaust port 101;
具体地,参照图4或5以及图7,在实际操作过程中,根据排气口101的实际堵塞情况对升降抖动装置200的运动及位置进行控制,下面以堵塞物为飞片为例进行说明。Specifically, referring to FIG. 4 or 5 and FIG. 7 , in actual operation, the movement and position of the lifting and shaking device 200 are controlled according to the actual blockage condition of the exhaust port 101 , and the following description will be made taking the blockage as a flying piece as an example.
当飞片堵塞排气口101时,首先控制升降抖动装置200向排气管路102的中心移动,使支撑部203不再被肩部1022-2覆盖。然后控制升降抖动装置200沿排气管路102的轴向朝向排气口101运动,使支撑部203接触排气口101处的飞片并伸入反应腔室100,将飞片顶离排气口101。然后,控制升降抖动装置200沿排气管路102的轴向做反复升降运动,将飞片抖落至离开排气口101位置的反应腔室100内,待对半导体沉积设备做周期维护时再打开反应腔室100,将反应腔室100内的飞片集中清理掉。或者,还可以同时控制升降抖动装置200沿排气管路102的径向做反复伸缩运动,以便更容易或者更有效率地将飞片抖落。When the flying flakes block the exhaust port 101, firstly, the lifting and shaking device 200 is controlled to move toward the center of the exhaust pipe 102, so that the support portion 203 is no longer covered by the shoulder 1022-2. Then, the lifting and shaking device 200 is controlled to move toward the exhaust port 101 along the axial direction of the exhaust pipe 102, so that the support portion 203 contacts the flying flakes at the exhaust port 101 and extends into the reaction chamber 100, and the flying flakes are pushed away from the exhaust port 101. Then, the lifting and shaking device 200 is controlled to perform repeated lifting and lowering movements along the axial direction of the exhaust pipe 102, and the flying flakes are shaken off into the reaction chamber 100 away from the exhaust port 101. When the semiconductor deposition equipment is periodically maintained, the reaction chamber 100 is opened again, and the flying flakes in the reaction chamber 100 are cleaned up collectively. Alternatively, the lifting and shaking device 200 can also be controlled to perform repeated telescopic movements along the radial direction of the exhaust pipe 102 at the same time, so as to shake off the flying flakes more easily or more efficiently.
具体的,升降抖动装置200包括横向伸缩组件201和纵向升降组件202,可以通过控制横向伸缩组件201使升降抖动装置200向排气管路102的中心移动,从而使位于升降抖动装置200的顶端的支撑部203位于管路本体区1022-1中而不再被肩部1022-2覆盖。然后通过控制纵向升降组件202使升降抖动装置200沿排气管路102的轴向朝向排气口101运动,使支撑部203接触排气口101的飞片并伸入反应腔室100,以将飞片顶离。然后,控制纵向升降组件202使支撑部203沿排气管路102的轴向做反复升降运动,以将飞片抖落。此时,为了更容易或者更有效率的将飞片抖落,可在使支撑部203沿排气管路102的轴向做反复升降运动的同时,控制横向伸缩组件201使支撑部203沿排气管路102的径向做反复伸缩运动。Specifically, the lifting and shaking device 200 includes a transverse telescopic component 201 and a longitudinal lifting component 202. The lifting and shaking device 200 can be moved toward the center of the exhaust pipe 102 by controlling the transverse telescopic component 201, so that the support portion 203 located at the top of the lifting and shaking device 200 is located in the pipe body area 1022-1 and is no longer covered by the shoulder 1022-2. Then, by controlling the longitudinal lifting component 202, the lifting and shaking device 200 moves toward the exhaust port 101 along the axial direction of the exhaust pipe 102, so that the support portion 203 contacts the flying pieces of the exhaust port 101 and extends into the reaction chamber 100 to push the flying pieces away. Then, the longitudinal lifting component 202 is controlled to make the support portion 203 perform repeated lifting and lowering movements along the axial direction of the exhaust pipe 102 to shake off the flying pieces. At this time, in order to shake off the flying pieces more easily or efficiently, the support part 203 can be repeatedly lifted and lowered along the axial direction of the exhaust pipe 102 while the lateral telescopic component 201 can be controlled to make the support part 203 repeatedly telescopic along the radial direction of the exhaust pipe 102.
进一步地,为了获得更好的抖动效果,可在管路扩张段1022的内壁上设置多个升降抖动装置200,多个控制装置300与多个升降抖动装置200一一对应连接,以控制多个升降抖动装置200同步或者是错峰的沿排气管路102的轴向做反复升降运动。或者,同时控制多个升降抖动装置200同步或是错峰地沿排气管路102的径向做反复伸缩运动。在实际操作过程中,根据排气口101的实际堵塞情况对一个或者多个升降抖动装置200的运动及位置进行控制。Furthermore, in order to obtain a better shaking effect, multiple lifting and shaking devices 200 may be arranged on the inner wall of the pipeline expansion section 1022, and multiple control devices 300 may be connected to the multiple lifting and shaking devices 200 in a one-to-one correspondence, so as to control the multiple lifting and shaking devices 200 to perform repeated lifting and lowering movements along the axial direction of the exhaust pipeline 102 synchronously or staggered. Alternatively, multiple lifting and shaking devices 200 may be controlled to perform repeated telescopic movements along the radial direction of the exhaust pipeline 102 synchronously or staggered. In actual operation, the movement and position of one or more lifting and shaking devices 200 are controlled according to the actual blockage of the exhaust port 101.
当飞片仅覆盖了部分排气口101时,可以控制至少一个升降抖动装置200向排气管路102的中心移动,从而使位于升降抖动装置200的顶端的支撑部203位于管路本体区1022-1中,控制该至少一个升降抖动装置200沿排气管路102的轴向朝向排气口101运动,使至少一个升降抖动装置200的顶部接触排气口101处的飞片并伸入反应腔室100,将飞片顶离排气口101,然后控制该至少一个升降抖动装置200沿排气管路102的轴向做反复升降运动,将飞片抖落至离开排气口101位置的反应腔室100内,待对半导体沉积设备做周期维护时再打开反应腔室100,将反应腔室100内的飞片集中清理掉。When the flying flakes only cover a portion of the exhaust port 101, at least one lifting and shaking device 200 can be controlled to move toward the center of the exhaust duct 102, so that the support portion 203 located at the top of the lifting and shaking device 200 is located in the duct body area 1022-1, and the at least one lifting and shaking device 200 is controlled to move toward the exhaust port 101 along the axial direction of the exhaust duct 102, so that the top of the at least one lifting and shaking device 200 contacts the flying flakes at the exhaust port 101 and extends into the reaction chamber 100, pushing the flying flakes away from the exhaust port 101, and then controlling the at least one lifting and shaking device 200 to perform repeated lifting and lowering movements along the axial direction of the exhaust duct 102 to shake the flying flakes off into the reaction chamber 100 away from the exhaust port 101, and then opening the reaction chamber 100 when performing periodic maintenance on the semiconductor deposition equipment to clean up the flying flakes in the reaction chamber 100.
当飞片完全覆盖或大面积覆盖排气口101时,可以控制多个升降抖动装置200或者全部的升降抖动装置200向排气管路102的中心移动,从而使位于升降抖动装置200的顶端的支撑部203位于管路本体区1022-1中,控制该多个或全部的升降抖动装置200沿排气管路102的轴向朝向排气口101运动,使该多个或全部的升降抖动装置200的顶部接触排气口101处的飞片并伸入反应腔室100,将飞片顶离排气口101,然后控制该多个或全部的升降抖动装置200一起沿排气管路102的轴向做反复升降运动,将飞片抖落至离开排气口101位置的反应腔室100内。其中,该多个或者全部的升降抖动装置200一起沿排气管路102的轴向做反复升降运动,可以为一起同向地做反复升降运动,也可以为不同向地做反复升降运动。为了获得更好的抖动效果,可以控制该多个或者全部的升降抖动装置200错峰地沿排气管路102的轴向做反复升降运动。例如,一部分升降抖动装置200沿排气管路102的轴向向上运动时,另一部分升降抖动装置200沿排气管路102的轴向向下运动;更优地,相邻的两个升降抖动装置200,其中一个升降抖动装置200沿排气管路102的轴向向上运动时,另一个升降抖动装置200沿排气管路102的轴向向下运动。When the flying flakes completely cover or cover a large area of the exhaust port 101, multiple lifting and shaking devices 200 or all of the lifting and shaking devices 200 can be controlled to move toward the center of the exhaust pipe 102, so that the support part 203 located at the top of the lifting and shaking device 200 is located in the pipe body area 1022-1, and the multiple or all of the lifting and shaking devices 200 are controlled to move toward the exhaust port 101 along the axial direction of the exhaust pipe 102, so that the top of the multiple or all of the lifting and shaking devices 200 contacts the flying flakes at the exhaust port 101 and extends into the reaction chamber 100, so as to push the flying flakes away from the exhaust port 101, and then the multiple or all of the lifting and shaking devices 200 are controlled to perform repeated lifting and lowering movements along the axial direction of the exhaust pipe 102 to shake the flying flakes off into the reaction chamber 100 away from the exhaust port 101. Among them, the multiple or all lifting and shaking devices 200 perform repeated lifting and lowering motions together along the axial direction of the exhaust pipe 102, and can perform repeated lifting and lowering motions together in the same direction or in different directions. In order to obtain a better shaking effect, the multiple or all lifting and shaking devices 200 can be controlled to perform repeated lifting and lowering motions along the axial direction of the exhaust pipe 102 at staggered times. For example, when a part of the lifting and shaking devices 200 moves upward along the axial direction of the exhaust pipe 102, another part of the lifting and shaking devices 200 moves downward along the axial direction of the exhaust pipe 102; more preferably, when one of the two adjacent lifting and shaking devices 200 moves upward along the axial direction of the exhaust pipe 102, the other lifting and shaking device 200 moves downward along the axial direction of the exhaust pipe 102.
为了更容易或者更有效率的将飞片顶离,增加飞片的受力点,可以在至少一个升降抖动装置200沿排气管路102的轴向做反复升降运动的同时,通过至少一个控制装置300控制对应的升降抖动装置200沿排气管路102的径向做反复伸缩运动,从而将飞片抖落至离开排气口101位置的反应腔室100内。当控制多个升降抖动装置200一起沿排气管路102的轴向做反复升降运动时,可以控制其中至少一个升降抖动装置200沿排气管路102的径向做反复伸缩运动,或者可以控制该多个升降抖动装置200沿排气管路102的径向做反复伸缩运动,该多个升降抖动装置200可以一起同向地做反复伸缩运动,也可以为不同向地做反复伸缩运动,需注意的是,当该多个升降抖动装置200在管路本体1021或管路本体区1022-1中沿排气管路102的径向同向地做反复伸缩运动时,支撑部203沿管路本体1021的内轮廓所在面的周向方向排布,且相邻支撑部203之间设有间隙,所述间隙容许各个支撑部203沿管路本体1021或管路本体区1022-1的径向方向运动。同样的,为了获得更好的抖动效果,可以控制该多个升降抖动装置200错峰地沿排气管路102的轴向做反复升降运动的同时,控制该多个升降抖动装置200错峰地沿排气管路102的的径向做反复伸缩运动。例如,一部分升降抖动装置200沿排气管路102的轴向向第一轴向方向运动且沿排气管路102的的径向向第一径向方向运动时,另一部分升降抖动装置200沿排气管路102的轴向向第二轴向方向运动且沿排气管路102的的径向向第二径向方向运动;更优地,相邻的两个升降抖动装置200中,其中一个升降抖动装置200沿排气管路102的轴向向第一轴向方向运动且沿排气管路102的的径向向第一径向方向运动时,另一个升降抖动装置200沿排气管路102的轴向向第二轴向方向运动且沿排气管路102的的径向向第二径向方向运动。其中第一轴向方向为沿轴向向上或沿轴向向下的任意一种,第二轴向方向为与第一轴向方向相对的方向;第一径向方向为沿径向朝向排气管路102的中心轴线或沿径向远离排气管路102的中心轴线的任意一种,第二径向方向为与第一径向方向相对的方向。In order to more easily or efficiently push away the flying flakes and increase the force points of the flying flakes, while at least one lifting and shaking device 200 can be repeatedly lifted and lowered along the axial direction of the exhaust duct 102, at least one control device 300 can be used to control the corresponding lifting and shaking device 200 to perform repeated telescopic movements along the radial direction of the exhaust duct 102, thereby shaking off the flying flakes into the reaction chamber 100 away from the exhaust port 101. When controlling a plurality of lifting and shaking devices 200 to perform repeated lifting and lowering motions along the axial direction of the exhaust pipe 102, at least one of the lifting and shaking devices 200 can be controlled to perform repeated telescopic motions along the radial direction of the exhaust pipe 102, or the plurality of lifting and shaking devices 200 can be controlled to perform repeated telescopic motions along the radial direction of the exhaust pipe 102. The plurality of lifting and shaking devices 200 can perform repeated telescopic motions in the same direction together, or can perform repeated telescopic motions in different directions. It should be noted that when the plurality of lifting and shaking devices 200 perform repeated telescopic motions in the same direction along the radial direction of the exhaust pipe 102 in the pipe body 1021 or the pipe body area 1022-1, the support parts 203 are arranged in the circumferential direction of the surface where the inner contour of the pipe body 1021 is located, and gaps are provided between adjacent support parts 203, and the gaps allow each support part 203 to move in the radial direction of the pipe body 1021 or the pipe body area 1022-1. Similarly, in order to obtain a better shaking effect, the multiple lifting and shaking devices 200 can be controlled to perform repeated lifting and lowering movements along the axial direction of the exhaust pipe 102 at staggered peaks, and the multiple lifting and shaking devices 200 can be controlled to perform repeated telescopic movements along the radial direction of the exhaust pipe 102 at staggered peaks. For example, when a part of the lifting and shaking devices 200 moves in the first axial direction along the axial direction of the exhaust pipe 102 and in the first radial direction along the radial direction of the exhaust pipe 102, another part of the lifting and shaking devices 200 moves in the second axial direction along the axial direction of the exhaust pipe 102 and in the second radial direction along the radial direction of the exhaust pipe 102; more preferably, among two adjacent lifting and shaking devices 200, when one of the lifting and shaking devices 200 moves in the first axial direction along the axial direction of the exhaust pipe 102 and in the first radial direction along the radial direction of the exhaust pipe 102, another lifting and shaking device 200 moves in the second axial direction along the axial direction of the exhaust pipe 102 and in the second radial direction along the radial direction of the exhaust pipe 102. The first axial direction is either axially upward or axially downward, and the second axial direction is a direction opposite to the first axial direction; the first radial direction is either radially toward the central axis of the exhaust pipe 102 or radially away from the central axis of the exhaust pipe 102, and the second radial direction is a direction opposite to the first radial direction.

The specific process will not be repeated.
S4:直至判断排气口未发生堵塞,通过控制装置控制升降抖动装置复位使支撑部重新位于初始位置。S4: until it is determined that the exhaust port is not blocked, the control device controls the lifting and shaking device to reset so that the supporting part is located at the initial position again.
参照图7或8,当将排气口101的飞片或者堵塞物清理之后,参照S2中步骤,设置与控制装置300相连接的传感器,例如压力传感器或温度传感器,根据反应腔室100内的压力波动值或者温度波动值、排气口101上游及下游的压差波动值是否处于预设范围内,确定是否已将排气口101的堵塞物清除。当判断排气口101未发生堵塞后,通过控制装置300控制对应的升降抖动装置200沿远离反应腔室100的方向移动,升降抖动装置200全部回缩至排气管路102内的初始位置,即重新位于在管路扩张段1022内,升降抖动装置200和支撑部203均被肩部覆盖,以为半导体沉积设备正常运行预留出足够的排气通道。至此,完成排气口101的堵塞清理过程。Referring to FIG. 7 or 8, after the flying pieces or blockages of the exhaust port 101 are cleared, referring to step S2, a sensor connected to the control device 300, such as a pressure sensor or a temperature sensor, is set to determine whether the blockage of the exhaust port 101 has been cleared according to whether the pressure fluctuation value or the temperature fluctuation value in the reaction chamber 100 and the pressure difference fluctuation value upstream and downstream of the exhaust port 101 are within a preset range. When it is determined that the exhaust port 101 is not blocked, the corresponding lifting and shaking device 200 is controlled by the control device 300 to move in a direction away from the reaction chamber 100, and the lifting and shaking device 200 is completely retracted to the initial position in the exhaust pipeline 102, that is, it is relocated in the pipeline expansion section 1022, and the lifting and shaking device 200 and the support part 203 are covered by the shoulder to reserve sufficient exhaust channels for the normal operation of the semiconductor deposition equipment. At this point, the blockage cleaning process of the exhaust port 101 is completed.
