Flow-formed chamber component having a textured surface

Abstract

A method of fabricating a component for a substrate processing chamber involves providing a preform having internal and external surfaces, and providing a mandrel having a textured surface with a pattern of textured features comprising protrusions and depressions. The internal surface of the preform component is contacted with the textured surface of mandrel, and a pressure is applied to the external surface of the preform. The pressure is sufficiently high to plastically deform the preform over the textured surface of the mandrel to form a component having a textured internal surface comprising the pattern of textured feature that are shaped and sized to adhere process residues generated in the processing of substrates.

Description

BACKGROUND

In the processing of substrates such as semiconductor wafers and displays, a substrate is placed in a process chamber and exposed to an energized gas to deposit or etch material on the substrate. During such processing, process residues are generated and can deposit on internal surfaces in the chamber. For example, in sputter deposition processes, material sputtered from a target for deposition on a substrate also deposits on other component surfaces in the chamber, such as on deposition rings, shadow rings, wall liners, and focus rings. In subsequent process cycles, the deposited process residues can “flake off” of the chamber surfaces to fall upon and contaminate the substrate. To reduce the contamination of the substrates by process residues, the surfaces of components in the chamber can be textured. Process residues adhere to the textured surface and inhibit the process residues from falling off and contaminating the substrates in the chamber.

Typically, textured surface components are fabricated in a multiple step process. In the first fabrication step, the shape or overall structure of the component is fabricated, for example, by CNC machining of a block of metal into the desired structure. Thereafter, a second fabrication process is used to form the textured surface of the machined component. For example, the surface texturing process can include grinding, bead blasting or polishing, or combinations thereof. In one version, the textured surface is formed by directing an electromagnetic energy beam onto a surface of a component to form depressions and protrusions to which process deposits adhere well. An example of such a surface is a Lavacoat™ surface, as described for example in commonly assigned U.S. Patent Publication No. 2003-0173526 to Popiolkowski et al, published on Sep. 18, 2003, and filed on Mar. 13, 2002; and U.S. Pat. No. 6,812,471 to Popiolkowski et al, issued on Nov. 2, 2004; both of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entireties. The Lavacoat™ surface comprises depressions and protrusions to which process residues can adhere to reduce the contamination of substrates during their processing.

However, conventional processes to fabricate textured components are often expensive because of the multiple fabrication steps needed to form the component and its textured surface. The fabrication costs inhibit widespread implementation of the textured components despite the processing benefits provided by the components. The expense of conventional fabrication processes is at least in part due to the complicated multi-step fabrication procedures used in these processes, as well as the expensive fabrication equipment. For example, component fabrication machinery, such as for example, electromagnetic energy beam generating equipment, is expensive and can substantially increase the fabrication costs of the textured components.

The component fabrication time and costs are a further problem when the cleaning processes used to refurbish textured components erodes the component after several cleaning cycles. A cleaning process is typically performed once residues have accumulated on the textured component to remove the residues and refurbish the component for re-use. For example, repeated cleaning of the textured component with solutions comprising HNO₃ or HF eventually erodes the textured surface of components, typically requiring the replacement of the eroded components with newly-fabricated components. Thus, the expense of fabricating the new textured surface components undesirably increases the costs associated with operating a chamber.

Accordingly, it is desirable to have a method of fabricating textured chamber components that is relatively inexpensive and efficient compared to conventional fabrication processes. It is further desirable to have a component with a textured surface to which process residues can adhere well.

SUMMARY

In one version, a method of fabricating a component for a substrate-processing chamber involves providing a preform having internal and external surfaces, and a mandrel having a textured surface with a pattern of textured features comprising periodic and alternating protrusions and depressions. The internal surface of the preform is contacted with the textured surface of mandrel. A pressure is applied to the perform that is sufficiently high to plastically deform the preform and cause the internal surface of the perform to flow over the textured surface of the mandrel to form a component having a textured internal surface comprising a pattern of textured features.

In another version, the textured surface of the mandrel has protuberances having a height of from about 0.005 to about 0.050 inches and a width at half height of from about 0.007 to about 0.070 inches, and depressions having a depth of from about 0.005 to about 0.050 inches, and a width at half depth of from about 0.002 to about 0.130 inches. The internal surface of the preform is contacted with the textured surface of the mandrel. Rotating rollers are pressed against the external surface of the perform to plastically deform the preform causing the internal surface of the preform to flow over the textured surface of the mandrel, thereby forming a component having a textured internal surface comprising a reverse pattern of alternating protuberances and depressions that is a mirror image of the pattern on the mandrel.

A component for a substrate processing chamber comprises an external surface formed by rotating rollers that are pressed against a perform and an internal surface formed by plastic deformation over a textured surface of a mandrel having a pattern of textured features comprising periodic and alternating protrusions and depressions so that the internal surface has a pattern of textured features that are correspondingly shaped and sized, whereby process residues generated in the processing of substrates adhere to the textured internal surface to reduce contamination of the substrates in substrate fabrication.

DESCRIPTION

A substrate-processing chamber comprises components for processing a substrate in an energized gas. One or more of the components comprises a surface that is textured, such that process deposits generated during the processing of substrates can adhere to the component surfaces to reduce the contamination of processed substrates from the process deposits. Process deposits that adhere to the textured surfaces of chamber components can include metal-containing deposits, such as deposits comprising at least one of tantalum, tantalum nitride, titanium, titanium nitride, aluminum, copper, tungsten, and tungsten nitride.

The textured surfaces 20 of selected chamber components 22 and the shape of the component itself is formed by a flow-forming apparatus and process adapted for the textured surface component as, for example, shown in FIG. 1. The flow-forming apparatus applies a pressure to a preform 24 to plastically deform and flow the material of the preform over a mandrel 26 to provide the desired bulk shape of the components 22. The mandrel 26 is desirably adapted to form a predetermined textured pattern on the surface 20 of the preform 24 that contacts the mandrel 26. For example, the mandrel 26 may comprise a textured surface 28. The plastic deformation of the component material under the applied pressure molds the surface 20 of the preform 24 to conform to the texture of the mandrel surface 28, thus transferring at least a portion of the mandrel surface pattern to the final chamber component 22. By providing a mandrel 26 that has been specially adapted to create the desired surface texture pattern 34, components 22 having not only the desired bulk shape but also the desired surface texture pattern 34 may be efficiently and repeatedly formed by the flow-forming process.

The preform 24 has a pre-selected size and shape that forms the desired final component 22. A suitable preform shape for a flow-forming process may be for example a conical, cylindrical, tube-like and other shape, which can be molded and contoured on the mandrel 26. Typically, the perform has an axis of circular symmetry that is aligned to the axis of symmetry of the mandrel 26. The walls 36 of the preform 24 are made sufficiently thick that a desired final thickness of the walls of the component 22 is obtained after the plastic deformation caused by the flow-forming process. For example, the thickness of the preform walls 36 is greater than the component wall thickness by a calculated amount, for example, at least 5%, to achieve the desired final thickness of the walls of the final component 22. The preform 24 is made from a metal with relatively high ductility that may be plastically deformed under pressure substantially without breaking or cracking of the metal. Suitable metals may comprise, for example, at least one of aluminum, copper, stainless steel, titanium, and associated alloys. The preform 24 may be formed by methods including deep drawings, stamping, CNC machining, and press-forming, as well as by other metal shape fabrication methods known to those of ordinary skill in the art.

In the flow-forming process, the preform 24 comprises an internal surface 20 that is fitted over at least a portion of the textured surface 28 of the mandrel 26, and may rest against the surface 28 of the mandrel 26. The mandrel 26 is a component of a flow-forming apparatus 52 comprising other parts adapted for the flow-forming of components 22. A first end 40 of the of the preform 24, which may be a closed or semi-closed end, can be held by a headstock 56 and/or tailstock 42 capable of exerting a hydraulic pressure to hold the preform 24 in place. The mandrel 26 is typically rotated about its longitudinal axis 44, for example by a motor (not shown) which in turn rotates the preform 24 in synchronization with the mandrel 26. A pressure applying device 46, such as for example pressure rollers 48, are applied against an external surface 50 of the preform 24 to plastically deform and flow the preform material in an axial direction along the surface 28 of the mandrel 26.

In the embodiment shown, the pressure rollers 48 move towards the first end 40 of the preform 24 to press and flow the preform material over the mandrel 26 in a direction away from the first end 40 of the perform 24. The preform material is desirably compressed and plasticized above its yield strength by the applied pressure to flow the material in an axial direction along the surface 28 of the mandrel 26. The pressure rollers 48 thus reduce the thickness of and lengthen the walls 36 of the preform 24 by flowing the preform material along the mandrel 26. The pressure applied to the external surface 50 is desirably sufficiently high to plastically deform and flow the preform material, substantially without breaking or cracking the material. The pressure applied varies as a function of the properties of the material being formed. The mandrel and the rollers are located at defined distances, which may be a constant or variable distance, to establish the relationship of the inner and outer surfaces of the finished part. In one version, the pressure rollers 48 may comprise circularly shaped rollers that are adapted to be rotated by a motor (not shown) in a direction parallel or anti-parallel to the direction of rotation of the mandrel 26, and thus exert a radial force on the external surface 50 of the preform 24. The pressure rollers 48 may also comprise an angled forward edge 54 that exerts an axial force on the external surface 50 of the preform 24 to drive the preform material in an axial direction across the surface 28 of the mandrel 26. In one version, a plurality of pressure rollers 48 are spaced apart about the circumference of the preform 24, and the pressure rollers 48 may also be axially and radially spaced apart, to exert pressures against a plurality of different regions of the preform external surface 50.

The mandrel 26 provided for the flow-forming process is desirably adapted to provide the desired bulk shape and surface texture pattern 34 of the final flow-formed component 22. For example, the mandrel 26 may comprise an axial length that is suited for a desired length of the component walls 36. The mandrel 26 also desirably comprises the textured surface 28 that is adapted to form the desired surface texture pattern 34 of the internal surface 20 of a component 22. For example, the mandrel 26 may comprise a textured surface 28 having a mandrel surface pattern 58 that is a reverse or mirror image of the surface texture pattern 34 that is desired for the chamber component 22. The surface texture pattern 34 formed on the surface 20 of component 22 is a result of the applied pressure during the flow-forming process which presses the preform material against the mandrel surface 28 such that the internal surface of component 22 substantially assumes the contour of the mandrel surface 28. For example, for a mandrel surface 28 comprising raised protrusions 60a and depressions 60b, the preform material may be pressed and flowed into the depressions 60b in the mandrel surface 28 to form corresponding reverse image features 30 comprising protrusions 30b on the surface of component 22, as shown for example in FIG. 2. The preform material is also flowed about the protrusions 60a on the mandrel surface 28 to form corresponding reverse image features 30 comprising depressions 30a in the component surface 20. The features 60 provided on the mandrel surface 28 can be selected according to the desired surface texture pattern 34, and may comprise for example protrusions 60a and depressions 60b comprising at least one of bumps, holes, ridges, grooves, and other features that may be desirable for the component surface 20. In one version, the mandrel 26 even comprises protrusions 60a and depressions 60b having sizes and spacings in one region of the mandrel surface 28 that differ from the sizes and spacings of the protrusions 60a and depressions 60b in a separate region of the mandrel 28. Flow-forming the component 22 on the mandrel 26 allows for the formation of a surface 20 of component 22 having predetermined dimensions and bulk shape, and simultaneously forming a desired surface texture pattern 34 on the surface of component 22, thus providing an efficient and improved means of fabricating the chamber components 22.

In one version, an improved surface texture pattern 34 is provided by flow-forming a component 22 on a mandrel 26 comprising alternating protuberances 62a and depressions 62b, as shown for example in FIG. 3. The alternating protuberances 62a and depressions 62b form a reverse image surface texture pattern 34 in the surface 20 of component 22 comprising corresponding protuberances 64a and depressions 64b, that allows process residues generated in the processing of substrates 104 to adhere to the textured surface 20 of component 22 to reduce the contamination of substrates 104 by the residues. The protuberances 62a in the mandrel surface 28 can comprise, for example, mounds or bumps having a height as measured from an average surface height h of the mandrel surface 28 of at least about 0.005 to about 0.050 inches. The protuberances 62a may have a width w_p at half their height of from about 0.007 to about 0.070 inches. The depressions 62b in the mandrel surface 28 may comprise a depth below the average surface height h of at least about 0.005 to about 0.050 inches, and may comprise a width w_d at half their depth of from about 0.002 to about 0.130 inches. The protuberances 64b and depressions 64a formed in the flow-formed surface 20 of component 22 may have dimensions that substantially correspond to those of the mandrel protuberances 62a and depressions 62b, as shown for example in FIG. 2.

In one version, the textured surface 28 comprises a surface cross-section that is substantially sinusoidal, as shown for example in FIG. 3, which is substantially absent sharp corners and edges. The sinusoidal cross-section comprises a cross-section profile that is substantially similar to that of a sine wave, with the wavelengths and amplitudes of the sinusoidal cross-section being selected according to the desired component characteristics. The sinusoidal cross section provides a smoothly varying surface with alternating protuberances 62a and depressions 62b that provide improved adhesion of process residues, and reduces the cracking or fracturing of deposited residues that can otherwise occur with sharp or abrupt surface transitions. A suitable sinusoidal surface cross section may have a peak-to-peak distance between adjacent protuberances 62a of from about 0.015 to about 0.180 inches and an amplitude of from about 0.005 to about 0.050 inches. In one version, the mandrel surface 28 comprises a first sinusoidal cross-section that circumferentially wraps at least partially around an axis 44 of the mandrel 26, as shown in FIG. 3, and a second sinusoidal cross-section that extends longitudinally along the axis 44 of the mandrel 26, as shown in FIG. 1. The textured surface 28 is desirably substantially absent corners 66 that are sharp and sharp edges, and instead comprises substantially rounded corners 66 and edges.

The mandrel 26 may also be specifically devised for the formation of complex and substantially non-linear surface texture patterns 34 that provide improved results in the processing of substrates 104. Such complex surface patterns can render it difficult to remove of the flow-formed component 22 from the mandrel 26 after the flow-forming process. For example, for surface patterns 34 that do not allow for sliding or twisting of the component 22 from the mandrel 26, the release of the component 22 from the mandrel 26 can be challenging. Such a surface pattern 34 that does not lend itself readily to twisting or sliding of the component 22 from the mandrel 26 is a surface pattern 34 comprising alternating protuberances 64b and depressions 64a, as the mandrel and component protuberances 62a,64b become locked into the mandrel and component depressions 62b,64a. In general, surface patterns 34 that do not comprise linear or spiraling depressions 30a that extend to at least one end 40 of the component 22 can be challenging to remove from the mandrel 26. In one version, the mandrel 26 is adapted for the fabrication of such complex surface patterns by being at least partially collapsible, such that the component 22 can be readily removed from the mandrel 26 after the flow-forming process. For example, the mandrel 26 may comprise a hollow interior section 70 into which sections of the mandrel 26 can collapse following the flow forming process, to provide a smaller circumference of the mandrel and improve the ease of removal of the component 22 from the mandrel 26. For example, the mandrel 26 may be hinged or otherwise constructed in such a way that the mandrel may fold in on itself. In yet another version, the protrusions 60a on the surface 28 of the mandrel 26, such as sinusoidal cross-section protuberances 62a, may be adapted to be withdrawn into the interior section 70 of the mandrel after flow-forming to “unlock” the component 22 from the mandrel surface 28. Thus, the improved mandrel 26 allows for the formation of complex surface patterns 34 on the component 22 that may be substantially absent linear or spiraling depressions that extend along a length of the internal surface 20 of component 22, and is not limited to substantially linear or spiraling surface patterns.

In another version, the flow-formed component 22 is removed from the mandrel 26 by heating the component with an appropriate heat source. The component 22 expands enough so that its internal surface 20 clears the height of the protuberances 64b and depressions 64a on the mandrel 26 to become disengaged thus allowing the component 22 to be removed from the mandrel 26. The amount of heat needed depends on the depth of the protuberances 64b and depressions 64a on the mandrel 26 and the thermal expansion coefficient of the component material.

An example of a component 22 fabricated by a flow-forming process is shown in FIG. 4. The component 22 comprises a shield 120 suitable for example for a deposition chamber 106. The component 22 is formed from a preform 24 comprising cylindrical sidewalls 36 that are pressed in the flow-forming process into the desired shield wall length and thickness. The internal surface 20 of the component 22 comprising the shield 120 comprises the desired surface textured pattern 34 (not shown) to which process residues can adhere to reduce the contamination of processed substrates 104. Thus, the flow-forming method is capable of providing the component 22 having the desired bulk shape and surface texture in a single process step, thus providing a more efficient and reproducible means of forming the component 22.

Different versions of components 22 having the textured surface 20 formed by the flow-forming method are used in a substrate-processing chamber 106, an exemplary embodiment of which is shown in FIG. 5. The chamber 106 is part of a multi-chamber platform (not shown) having a cluster of interconnected chambers connected by a robot arm mechanism that transfers substrates 104a between the chambers 106. In the version shown, the process chamber 106 comprises a sputter deposition chamber, also called a physical vapor deposition or PVD chamber, which is capable of sputter depositing material on a substrate 104a, such as one or more of tantalum, tantalum nitride, titanium, titanium nitride, copper, tungsten, tungsten nitride and aluminum. The chamber 106 comprises enclosure walls 118 that enclose a process zone 109 and that include sidewalls 164, a bottom wall 166 and a ceiling 168. A support ring 130 can be arranged between the sidewalls 164 and ceiling 168 to support the ceiling 168. Other chamber walls can include one or more shields 120 that shield the enclosure walls 118 from the sputtering environment.

The chamber 106 comprises a substrate support 114 to support the substrate in the sputter deposition chamber 106. The substrate support 114 may be electrically floating or may comprise an electrode 170 that is biased by a power supply 172, such as an RF power supply. The substrate support 114 can also support other wafers 104 such as a moveable shutter disk 104b that can protect the upper surface 134 of the support 114 when the substrate 104a is not present. In operation, the substrate 104a is introduced into the chamber 106 through a substrate loading inlet (not shown) in a sidewall 164 of the chamber 106 and placed on the support 114. The support 114 can be lifted or lowered by support lift bellows and a lift finger assembly (not shown) can be used to lift and lower the substrate onto the support 114 during transport of the substrate 104a into and out of the chamber 106.

The support 114 may also comprise one or more rings, such as a cover ring 126 or deposition ring 128, which cover at least a portion of the upper surface 134 of the support 114 to inhibit erosion of the support 114. In one version, the deposition ring 128 at least partially surrounds the substrate 104a to protect portions of the support 114 not covered by the substrate 104a. The cover ring 126 encircles and covers at least a portion of the deposition ring 128, and reduces the deposition of particles onto both the deposition ring 128 and the underlying support 114.

A process gas, such as a sputtering gas, is introduced into the chamber 106 through a gas delivery system 112 that includes a process gas supply comprising one or more gas sources 174 that each feed a conduit 176 having a gas flow control valve 178, such as a mass flow controller, to pass a set flow rate of the gas therethrough. The conduits 176 can feed the gases to a mixing manifold (not shown) in which the gases are mixed to from a desired process gas composition. The mixing manifold feeds a gas distributor 180 having one or more gas outlets 182 in the chamber 106. The process gas may comprise a non-reactive gas, such as argon or xenon, which is capable of energetically impinging upon and sputtering material from a target. The process gas may also comprise a reactive gas, such as one or more of an oxygen-containing gas and a nitrogen-containing gas, that are capable of reacting with the sputtered material to form a layer on the substrate 104a. Spent process gas and byproducts are exhausted from the chamber 106 through an exhaust 122 which includes one or more exhaust ports 184 that receive spent process gas and pass the spent gas to an exhaust conduit 186 in which there is a throttle valve 188 to control the pressure of the gas in the chamber 106. The exhaust conduit 186 feeds one or more exhaust pumps 190. Typically, the pressure of the sputtering gas in the chamber 106 is set to sub-atmospheric levels.

The sputtering chamber 106 further comprises a sputtering target 124 facing a surface 105 of the substrate 104a, and comprising material to be sputtered onto the substrate 104a, such as for example at least one of tantalum and tantalum nitride. The target 124 can be electrically isolated from the chamber 106 by an annular insulator ring 132, and is connected to a power supply 192. The target 124 may comprise a target backing plate having a target rim 125 that is exposed in the chamber 106. The sputtering chamber 106 also has a shield 120 to protect a wall 118 of the chamber 106 from sputtered material. The shield 120 can comprise a wall-like cylindrical shape having upper and lower shield sections 120a, 120b that shield the upper and lower regions of the chamber 106. In the version shown in FIG. 4, the shield 120 has an upper section 120a mounted to the support ring 130 and a lower section 120b that is fitted to the cover ring 126. A clamp shield 141 comprising a clamping ring can also be provided to clamp the upper and lower shield sections 120a,b together. Alternative shield configurations, such as inner and outer shields, can also be provided. In one version, one or more of the power supply 192, target 124 and shield 120, operate as a gas energizer 116 that is capable of energizing the sputtering gas to sputter material from the target 124. The power supply 192 applies a bias voltage to the target 124 with respect to the shield 120. The electric field generated in the chamber 106 from the applied voltage energizes the sputtering gas to form a plasma that energetically impinges upon and bombards the target 124 to sputter material off the target 124 and onto the substrate 104a. The support 114 having the electrode 170 and support electrode power supply 172 may also operate as part of the gas energizer 116 by energizing and accelerating ionized material sputtered from the target 124 towards the substrate 104a. Furthermore, a gas energizing coil 135 can be provided that is powered by a power supply 192 and that is positioned within the chamber 106 to provide enhanced energized gas characteristics, such as improved energized gas density. The gas energizing coil 135 can be supported by a coil support 137 that is attached to a shield 120 or other wall in the chamber 106.

The chamber 106 is controlled by a controller 194 that comprises program code having instruction sets to operate components of the chamber 106 to process substrates 104a in the chamber 106. For example, the controller 194 can comprise a substrate positioning instruction set to operate one or more of the substrate support 114 and substrate transport to position a substrate 104a in the chamber 106; a gas flow control instruction set to operate the flow control valves 178 to set a flow of sputtering gas to the chamber 106; a gas pressure control instruction set to operate the exhaust throttle valve 188 to maintain a pressure in the chamber 106; a gas energizer control instruction set to operate the gas energizer 116 to set a gas energizing power level; a temperature control instruction set to control temperatures in the chamber 106; and a process monitoring instruction set to monitor the process in the chamber 106.

The chamber components 22 having the textured surface 20 can comprise, for example, different arts of the gas delivery system 112, substrate support 114, process kit 139, gas energizer 116, chamber enclosure walls 118 and shields 120, or gas exhaust 122 of the chamber 106. For example, the chamber components 22 having the textured surface 20 can include a chamber enclosure wall 118, a chamber shield 120, a target 124, a target rim 125, a component of a process kit 139 such as at least one of a cover ring 126 and a deposition ring 128, a support ring 130, insulator ring 132, a coil 135, coil support 137, shutter disk 104b, clamp shield 141, and a portion of the substrate support 114. For example, components having the textured surface can include Applied Material's part numbers 0020-50007, 0020-50008, 0020-50010, 0020-50012, 0020-50013, 0020-48908, 0021-23852, 0020-48998, 0020-52149, 0020-51483, 0020-49977, 0020-52151, 0020-48999, 0020-48042 and 0190-14818, from Applied Materials, Santa Clara, Calif. This list of components is merely exemplary and the other components or components from other types of chambers can also have the textured surface; thus, the present invention should not be limited to the components listed or described herein.

The present invention has been described with reference to certain preferred versions thereof; however, other versions are possible. For example, the flow-formed components can be used in other types of applications, as would be apparent to one of ordinary skill, for example, as components of etching chambers. Other configurations of the flow forming apparatus can also be used, and mandrel surface patterns other than those specifically described can also be provided. Further, alternative steps equivalent to those described for the flow-forming method can also be used in accordance with the parameters of the described implementation, as would be apparent to one of ordinary skill. Therefore, the spirit and scope of the appended claims should not be limited to the description of the preferred versions contained herein.
