Description

金属镓去除装置及金属镓去除方法Metal gallium removal device and metal gallium removal method

技术领域technical field

本发明涉及半导体技术领域,尤其涉及一种金属镓去除装置及金属镓去除方法。The present invention relates to the technical field of semiconductors, and in particular, to a metal gallium removal device and a metal gallium removal method.

背景技术Background technique

Micro LED(Micro Light Emitting Diode,微型发光二极管)作为新一代显示技术,相比于LCD(Liquid Crystal Display,液晶显示器)、OLED(Organic Light EmittingDiode,有机发光二极管)技术,其亮度更高、发光效率更好、同时具有低功耗和长寿命的性能。在微型发光二极管的制备工艺流程过程中,巨量转移作为技术突破关键点,其流程主要包含激光剥离、巨量转移以及检测修复过程,其中激光剥离技术是巨量转移技术突破的关键点。Micro LED (Micro Light Emitting Diode, micro light-emitting diode) as a new generation of display technology, compared with LCD (Liquid Crystal Display, liquid crystal display), OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diode, organic light-emitting diode) technology, its brightness is higher, luminous efficiency is higher. Better performance with both low power consumption and long life. In the manufacturing process of micro light-emitting diodes, mass transfer is the key point of technological breakthrough. The process mainly includes laser lift-off, mass transfer and detection and repair process. Among them, laser lift-off technology is the key point of mass transfer technology breakthrough.

激光剥离技术主要是利用氮化镓(GaN)外延层与蓝宝石(Al2O3)衬底(又称生长基板)的带隙差异,采用光子能量大于氮化镓带隙、小于蓝宝石带隙的紫外激光辐射,使氮化镓在900℃~1000℃热分解形成金属镓和氮气,从而实现Micro LED与蓝宝石衬底的分离。分离后的Micro LED则会通过胶层粘附在暂态基板上,最终通过暂态基板将Micro LED转移至目标基板。然而,激光剥离后粘附在暂态基板上的Micro LED表面往往存在大量镓(Ga)残留。The laser lift-off technology mainly utilizes the band gap difference between the gallium nitride (GaN) epitaxial layer and the sapphire (Al 2 O 3 ) substrate (also known as the growth substrate). Ultraviolet laser radiation causes gallium nitride to thermally decompose at 900°C to 1000°C to form metal gallium and nitrogen, thereby realizing the separation of Micro LED and sapphire substrate. The separated Micro LED will be adhered to the transient substrate through the adhesive layer, and finally the Micro LED will be transferred to the target substrate through the transient substrate. However, the surface of the Micro LED adhered to the transient substrate after laser lift-off often has a large amount of gallium (Ga) residue.

对于镓残留,目前采用的最多的清除方式为酸洗,然而利用酸洗去除Micro LED表面的残留镓时对其存在腐蚀作用,同时清除残留镓的效果并不理想。基于该原因,如何在不腐蚀Micro LED的同时更有效地去除其表面的残留镓,成为激光剥离技术的关键一环。For gallium residues, the most commonly used removal method is pickling. However, when the residual gallium on the surface of the Micro LED is removed by pickling, it has a corrosive effect on it, and the effect of removing the residual gallium is not ideal. For this reason, how to more effectively remove the residual gallium on the surface of the Micro LED without corroding it has become a key part of the laser lift-off technology.

发明内容SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

鉴于上述现有技术的不足,本申请的目的在于提供一种金属镓去除装置及金属镓去除方法,旨在解决现有技术中激光剥离后发光器件表面的残留镓无法有效去除的问题。In view of the above-mentioned deficiencies of the prior art, the purpose of the present application is to provide a metal gallium removal device and a metal gallium removal method, aiming to solve the problem that the residual gallium on the surface of the light-emitting device cannot be effectively removed after laser lift-off in the prior art.

采用该装置处理激光剥离后粘附有发光器件的暂态基板时,利用吸附单元可以将暂态基板进行吸附,此时暂态基板与吸附单元接触并固定,发光器件则背离吸附单元。因镓的液化温度较低,约30℃,通过加热单元加热吸附单元后,可很容易通过热传导和热辐射的形式将发光器件表面的残留金属镓加热至液化温度。再利用旋转单元带动吸附单元旋转,即可使液化后的残留镓在旋转离心力的作用下从发光器件表面甩脱。When the device is used to process the transient substrate with the light emitting device adhered to after laser peeling, the transient substrate can be adsorbed by the adsorption unit. Because the liquefaction temperature of gallium is low, about 30°C, after the adsorption unit is heated by the heating unit, the residual metal gallium on the surface of the light-emitting device can be easily heated to the liquefaction temperature in the form of thermal conduction and thermal radiation. The rotation unit is then used to drive the adsorption unit to rotate, so that the liquefied residual gallium can be thrown off from the surface of the light-emitting device under the action of the rotating centrifugal force.

因此,通过本发明提供的上述金属镓去除装置,可有效去除激光剥离后发光器件表面的残留镓,同时避免了对发光器件的腐蚀,是一种高效、绿色、安全的残留镓去除装置。Therefore, the above-mentioned metal gallium removal device provided by the present invention can effectively remove the residual gallium on the surface of the light-emitting device after laser lift-off, while avoiding the corrosion of the light-emitting device, and is an efficient, green and safe residual gallium removal device.

In this way, after the liquid storage unit supplies liquid to the infusion pipeline, the temperature of the liquid is heated and controlled by the temperature control unit, and the hot liquid enters the adsorption unit, heats the adsorption unit in the form of heat conduction, and further heats the adsorbed substrate, so that the light-emitting device Residual gallium on the surface liquefies.

正如背景技术部分所描述的,现有技术中激光剥离后LED晶片表面的残留镓无法有效去除。As described in the background art section, the residual gallium on the surface of the LED wafer after laser lift-off cannot be effectively removed in the prior art.

基于此,本申请希望提供一种能够解决上述技术问题的方案,其详细内容将在后续实施例中得以阐述。Based on this, the present application hopes to provide a solution that can solve the above technical problems, the details of which will be described in the subsequent embodiments.

如图1所示,提供了一种金属镓去除装置,其包括旋转单元10、吸附单元20以及加热单元30;吸附单元20与旋转单元10相连,并在旋转单元10带动下进行旋转,吸附单元20用于吸附一暂态基板;其中,暂态基板背离吸附单元20的一侧表面粘附有发光器件;加热单元30用于对吸附单元20进行加热;其中,加热单元30对吸附单元20加热后,发光器件表面的温度大于或等于金属镓液化的温度。As shown in FIG. 1, a metal gallium removal device is provided, which includes a rotation unit 10, an adsorption unit 20 and a heating unit 30; 20 is used for adsorbing a transient substrate; wherein, a light-emitting device is adhered to the surface of the transient substrate away from the adsorption unit 20; the heating unit 30 is used for heating the adsorption unit 20; wherein, the heating unit 30 heats the adsorption unit 20 After that, the temperature of the surface of the light-emitting device is greater than or equal to the temperature at which the metal gallium is liquefied.

采用该装置处理激光剥离后粘附有发光器件的暂态基板时,利用吸附单元20可以将暂态基板进行吸附,此时暂态基板与吸附单元20接触并固定,发光器件则背离吸附单元20。因镓的液化温度较低,约30℃,通过加热单元30加热吸附单元20后,可很容易通过热传导和热辐射的形式将发光器件表面的残留金属镓加热至液化温度。再利用旋转单元10带动吸附单元20旋转,即可使液化后的残留镓在旋转离心力的作用下从发光器件表面甩脱。When the device is used to process the transient substrate with the light-emitting device adhered after laser peeling, the temporary substrate can be adsorbed by the adsorption unit 20 . At this time, the transient substrate is in contact with the adsorption unit 20 and fixed, and the light-emitting device is away from the adsorption unit 20 . Because the liquefaction temperature of gallium is low, about 30°C, after heating the adsorption unit 20 by the heating unit 30 , the residual metal gallium on the surface of the light-emitting device can be easily heated to the liquefaction temperature by thermal conduction and thermal radiation. Then, the rotation unit 10 is used to drive the adsorption unit 20 to rotate, so that the liquefied residual gallium can be thrown off from the surface of the light-emitting device under the action of the rotating centrifugal force.

因此,通过本发明提供的上述金属镓去除装置,可有效去除激光剥离后发光器件表面的残留镓,同时避免了对发光器件的腐蚀,是一种高效、绿色、安全的残留镓去除装置。Therefore, the above-mentioned metal gallium removal device provided by the present invention can effectively remove the residual gallium on the surface of the light-emitting device after laser lift-off, while avoiding the corrosion of the light-emitting device, and is an efficient, green and safe residual gallium removal device.

上述吸附单元20只要能够对暂态基板进行吸附固定,并能够在旋转单元10的带动下进行旋转即可。为了使发光结构表面的残留镓的液化更充分,同时对暂态基板的吸附更加稳固,在一些实施方式中,如图1所示,吸附单元20包括吸附基板21和吸附部22,吸附基板21与旋转单元10固定连接;吸附部22设置于吸附基板21背离旋转单元10的一侧表面,吸附部22用于吸附暂态基板。在实际操作过程中,通过吸附部22可将暂态基板稳定地吸附固定,而吸附基板21在旋转单元的带动下旋转,使液化后的镓在离心力作用下脱离。且利用吸附基板21,当加热单元30对其进行加热后,由于其具有较大的面积,能够通过更充足的热传导和热辐射促使发光器件表面的残留镓更充分地液化,从而进一步提高残留镓的脱离效果。在一些实施方式中,上述吸附部22为多个真空吸附头,其可通过真空吸附作用吸附暂态基板以其与表面粘附的发光器件固定。The above-mentioned adsorption unit 20 only needs to be able to adsorb and fix the transient substrate, and can rotate under the driving of the rotation unit 10 . In order to make the liquefaction of the residual gallium on the surface of the light-emitting structure more sufficient and the adsorption of the transient substrate to be more stable, in some embodiments, as shown in FIG. It is fixedly connected with the rotation unit 10 ; the adsorption part 22 is arranged on the surface of the side of the adsorption substrate 21 away from the rotation unit 10 , and the adsorption part 22 is used to adsorb the transient substrate. During the actual operation, the temporary substrate can be stably adsorbed and fixed by the adsorption part 22 , and the adsorption substrate 21 is rotated under the driving of the rotating unit, so that the liquefied gallium is released under the action of centrifugal force. And by using the adsorption substrate 21, after the heating unit 30 heats it, due to its larger area, the residual gallium on the surface of the light-emitting device can be more fully liquefied through more sufficient thermal conduction and thermal radiation, thereby further improving the residual gallium. detachment effect. In some embodiments, the above-mentioned adsorption part 22 is a plurality of vacuum adsorption heads, which can adsorb the transient substrate through vacuum adsorption and fix it with the light-emitting device adhered to the surface.

Exemplarily, as shown in FIG. 1 , the rotating unit 10 includes a rotating shaft 11 and a driving unit 12 . One end of the rotating shaft 11 is fixedly connected to the adsorption substrate 21 , and the other end is connected to the driving unit 12 , and the driving unit 12 is used to drive the rotating shaft. 11 Make a spin. The specific setting method can be adjusted, as long as the purpose of driving the adsorption substrate 21 to rotate can be achieved. For example, the rotating shaft 11 may have an upper end and a lower end, and the adsorption substrate 21 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the rotating shaft 11 . It can be understood that the above-mentioned driving unit 12 includes a power device and a transmission unit. The power device is connected to the rotating shaft 11 through the transmission unit, and is used to drive the rotating shaft 11 to rotate, thereby driving the rotation of the adsorption substrate 21 accordingly. The specific transmission unit can be a gear transmission device, through which the rotation speed of the rotating shaft 11 and the adsorption substrate 21 is precisely controlled, and centrifugal force is provided to make the liquefied gallium detach from the wafer surface. In addition, in order to make the residual metal gallium more convenient to be thrown away from the wafer, in some embodiments, as shown in FIG. surface. During the actual operation, the transient substrate is adsorbed by the adsorption part 22, and the light-emitting device adhered on the transient substrate faces downward away from the adsorption substrate 21, and the entire wafer is in an inverted state of "the transient substrate is on top and the light-emitting device is on the bottom". The surface of the light-emitting device with gallium remaining is at the bottom. In this way, the residual gallium after being heated and liquefied is more easily thrown out under the action of gravity and rotational centrifugal force, and is separated from the light-emitting device.

示例性地,上述加热单元30的加热方式包括电极加热或水浴加热。在实际操作过程中利用电极加热的方式或水浴加热的方式能够方便、较为充分地加热吸附单元,然后通过热传导和热辐射作用使残留镓更充分地液化。Exemplarily, the heating method of the above-mentioned heating unit 30 includes electrode heating or water bath heating. In the actual operation process, the electrode heating method or the water bath heating method can conveniently and sufficiently heat the adsorption unit, and then the residual gallium can be liquefied more fully through thermal conduction and thermal radiation.

示例性地,采用电极加热方式进行加热时,可以在吸附基板21的表面或内部设置电阻丝,通过将电阻丝与外部电源导通,热的电阻丝则实现对吸附基板21的加热;另外,也可以将加热电极插入吸附基板21中对其进行加热,方式多样,在此不再赘述。Exemplarily, when the electrode heating method is used for heating, a resistance wire may be arranged on the surface or inside of the adsorption substrate 21, and by conducting the resistance wire with the external power supply, the hot resistance wire can realize the heating of the adsorption substrate 21; in addition, The heating electrode can also be inserted into the adsorption substrate 21 to heat it in various ways, which will not be repeated here.

为了进一步提高加热效率,同时使加热过程更为充分均匀,在一些实施方式中,如图2所示,加热单元30的加热方式为水浴加热,其包括储液单元31、输液管道32及控温单元33;储液单元31用于储存并提供液体;输液管道32一端与储液单元31连通,另一端与吸附单元20内部连通;控温单元33设置于输液管道32中,用于控制经输液管道32传输至吸附单元20中的液体的温度。在实际操作过程中,将水通过输液管道32通入旋转吸附单元20中,并在通入过程中利用控温单元33控制水的温度。In order to further improve the heating efficiency and at the same time make the heating process more uniform, in some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 2 , the heating method of the heating unit 30 is water bath heating, which includes a liquid storage unit 31 , a liquid infusion pipeline 32 and a temperature control unit 33; the liquid storage unit 31 is used to store and provide liquid; one end of the infusion pipeline 32 is connected to the liquid storage unit 31, and the other end is connected to the interior of the adsorption unit 20; Line 32 conveys the temperature of the liquid in adsorption unit 20 . In the actual operation process, the water is passed into the rotary adsorption unit 20 through the infusion pipeline 32, and the temperature control unit 33 is used to control the temperature of the water during the passing process.

这样,由储液单元31向输液管道32供液后,通过控温单元33加热并控制液体温度,热的液体进入吸附单元中,以热传导的形式加热吸附单元20,并进一步加热吸附的暂态基板,使发光器件表面的残留镓液化。通过上述水浴加热单元,温度更容易控制,发光器件表面的残留镓液化更充分,也有利于避免加热温度过高。此处需要说明的是,加热单元30的储液单元31中的液体只要能够作为加热液体介质即可,比如水、醇类、酯类等,也可以是半导体制程中的废水、废液等,只要其成分沸点高于金属镓液化温度即可。In this way, after the liquid storage unit 31 supplies liquid to the infusion pipeline 32, the temperature of the liquid is heated and controlled by the temperature control unit 33, and the hot liquid enters the adsorption unit, heats the adsorption unit 20 in the form of heat conduction, and further heats the temporary state of adsorption. The substrate liquefies the residual gallium on the surface of the light-emitting device. Through the above water bath heating unit, the temperature is easier to control, the residual gallium on the surface of the light-emitting device is more fully liquefied, and it is also beneficial to avoid excessive heating temperature. It should be noted here that the liquid in the liquid storage unit 31 of the heating unit 30 can be used as a heating liquid medium, such as water, alcohols, esters, etc., or it can be wastewater, waste liquid, etc. in the semiconductor process. As long as the boiling point of its components is higher than the liquefaction temperature of metal gallium.

示例性地,如图2所示,吸附基板21内部设置有输液流道,输液流道与输液管道32连通。这样,储液单元31的液体经加热控温后可以直接进入吸附基板21内部的输液流道,用于对其进行水浴加热,且具有加热更充分均匀、更高效的优势,对于发光器件表面的残留镓具有更高效的加热效果。Exemplarily, as shown in FIG. 2 , an infusion channel is provided inside the adsorption substrate 21 , and the infusion channel communicates with the infusion pipeline 32 .

For the distributed backside liquid circulation pipelines, the spacing between adjacent pipelines is less than 1 mm, so that the adsorption substrate 21 can be more fully heated, and the residual gallium can be heated accordingly. As long as the pipelines are fully distributed as far as possible, the infusion channel can also be of other structures, such as S-shaped, annular, broken-line, etc., which can be understood by those skilled in the art.

示例性地,旋转轴11为中空结构,输液管道32通过中空的旋转轴11与吸附基板21中的输液流道相连通。这样,当旋转轴11带动吸附基板21转动时,并不会带动整个加热单元30的转动,这是本领域技术人员都能够理解的。Exemplarily, the rotating shaft 11 is a hollow structure, and the infusion pipeline 32 communicates with the infusion flow channel in the adsorption substrate 21 through the hollow rotating shaft 11 . In this way, when the rotating shaft 11 drives the adsorption substrate 21 to rotate, it does not drive the entire heating unit 30 to rotate, which can be understood by those skilled in the art.

In this way, the liquid in the liquid storage unit 31 can directly enter the liquid infusion channel inside the adsorption substrate 21 after being heated and temperature-controlled for heating it in a water bath, and has the advantages of more sufficient, uniform and efficient heating. Residual gallium has a more efficient heating effect.

示例性地,旋转轴11为中空结构,通过输液管道32将储液单元31中的液体传输至吸附单元20中的步骤包括:将输液管道32通过具有中空结构的旋转轴11与吸附基板21中的输液流道相连通。这样,当旋转轴11带动吸附基板21转动时,并不会带动整个加热单元30的转动,这是本领域技术人员都能够理解的。Exemplarily, the rotating shaft 11 is a hollow structure, and the step of transferring the liquid in the liquid storage unit 31 to the adsorption unit 20 through the liquid infusion pipe 32 includes: passing the liquid infusion pipe 32 through the rotating shaft 11 with the hollow structure and the adsorption substrate 21 . connected to the infusion channel. In this way, when the rotating shaft 11 drives the adsorption substrate 21 to rotate, it does not drive the entire heating unit 30 to rotate, which can be understood by those skilled in the art.

在一些实施方式中,加热吸附单元20以及控制吸附单元20进行旋转的步骤均在惰性气体和/或真空环境中进行。这样有利于避免液化后的残留镓发生氧化,以便使液化镓更好地脱离发光器件。具体的惰性气体可以是氮气、氩气等,抽真空后壳体40内的真空度可以为10-1~10-3Pa。In some embodiments, the steps of heating the adsorption unit 20 and controlling the rotation of the adsorption unit 20 are performed in an inert gas and/or vacuum environment. This is beneficial to avoid oxidation of the residual gallium after liquefaction, so that the liquefied gallium can be better separated from the light-emitting device. The specific inert gas can be nitrogen gas, argon gas, etc., and the vacuum degree in the casing 40 after vacuuming can be 10 -1 to 10 -3 Pa.

总之,通过本发明提供的上述装置及方法,通过将粘附有发光器件的暂态基板进行吸附,使暂态基板能够吸附固定在吸附单元上,随后通过加热单元的加热,能够将残留在发光器件表面的镓液化,最后在旋转离心力的作用下脱离晶片表面。总之,利用本发明提供的装置及方法,能够在不腐蚀晶片的前提下更充分地去除激光剥离后残留在发光器件表面的金属镓,弥补了现有技术中激光剥离技术因残留镓难以去除的缺陷。In a word, through the above-mentioned device and method provided by the present invention, by adsorbing the transient substrate with the light-emitting device adhered, the transient substrate can be adsorbed and fixed on the adsorption unit, and then by the heating of the heating unit, the residual light-emitting device can be removed. The gallium on the device surface is liquefied and finally released from the wafer surface under the action of rotating centrifugal force. In a word, by using the device and method provided by the present invention, the metal gallium remaining on the surface of the light-emitting device after laser lift-off can be more fully removed without corroding the wafer, which makes up for the difficulty of removing residual gallium in the laser lift-off technology in the prior art. defect.
