The disclosed technology relates to a method and device for monitoring chemical mechanical planarization (CMP) processes.
During chemical mechanical planarization or polishing (CMP), an abrasive and either acidic or alkalinic slurry is applied via a metering pump or mass-flow-control regulator system onto a rotating polishing pad/platen. A substrate or wafer is held by a wafer carrier which is rotated and pressed against a polishing pad on a polishing platen for a specified period of time. The slurry is normally brought to the polishing platen in a single-pass distribution system. The wafer is polished (i.e., planarized) by both mechanical means (e.g., abrasion) and chemical means (e.g., corrosion) during the CMP process.
During the CMP process, the surface of the wafer is removed to provide the planarization or polishing of the wafer.

Detailed embodiments of the disclosed technology will now be described with reference to the drawings.
The adoption and use of chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) for the planarization of thin films in the manufacture of semiconductor Integrated circuits (ICs), MEMS devices, and LEDs, among many other similar applications is common among companies manufacturing “chips” for these types of devices. This adoption includes the manufacture of chips for mobile telephones, tablets and other portable devices, plus desktop and laptop computers. The growth in nanotechnology and micro-machining holds great promise for ever-widespread use and adaptation of digital devices in the medical field, in the automotive field, and in the Internet of Things (the “IoT”). Chemical mechanical polishing for the planarization of thin films was invented and developed in the early 1980s by scientists and engineers at the IBM Corporation. Today, this process is widespread on a global basis and is one of the truly enabling technologies in the manufacture of nearly all digital devices.
Integrated circuits are manufactured with multiple layers and alternating layers of conducting materials (copper, tungsten, aluminium, etc.), insulating layers (silicon dioxide, silicon nitride, etc.), and semiconducting material (polysilicon). A successive combination of these layers is sequentially applied to the wafer surface, but because of the implanted devices on the surface, topographical undulations are built up upon the device structures, as is the case with silicon dioxide insulator layers. These unwanted topographical undulations must be flattened or “planarized” before the next layer can be deposited. In the case of copper layers, the copper is deposited on the surface to fill contact vias and make effective vertical paths for the transfer of electrons from device to device and from layer to layer. This procedure continues with each layer that is applied (usually applied by a deposition process). In the case of multiple layers of conducting material (multiple layers of metal), this could result in numerous polishing procedures (one for each layer of conductor, insulator, and semiconductor material) in order to achieve successful circuitry.
The CMP process is an enabling technology in the manufacture of multi-layer circuitry that makes this all possible. The following describes further details on various components and steps in a non-limiting example of a CMP method and apparatus:
A cost contributor in the CMP process includes the collective costs associated with the consumable set, such as the polishing slurries and the polishing pads. Typical polishing slurries used in CMP processing comprise, for example, colloidal suspensions of abrasive particles (e.g., colloidal silica, colloidal alumina, colloidal ceria, etc.) suspended or contained within, for example, a water-based medium.
The polishing pads are typically polyurethane based. Additionally, the typical CMP polishing pad is usually from 18″ to 24″ in diameter; this dimension is dictated by the size of the polishing platen (i.e., table) on the popular polishing machines in use around the world. However, in some applications (e.g., precision optical applications) they may be even larger in diameter (e.g., up to 48″ or larger). These polishing pads are typically attached to a very flat polishing platen (e.g., polishing table) by pressure sensitive adhesive.
During the CMP process, a slurry is applied, via a metering pump or mass-flow-control regulator or other system, onto a rotating polishing pad. In addition, a substrate or wafer is held by a wafer carrier which is rotated and pressed against the polishing platen for a specified period of time. The term “substrate” and “wafer” are used interchangeably herein, and include, for example, semiconductor or silicon wafers, flat panel displays, glass plates or disks, plastic work-pieces, and other substantially rigid, flat and thin work-pieces of various shapes (e.g., round, square rectangular, etc.) and sizes on which one or more embodiments of the apparatuses and processes disclosed herein can be implemented. Additionally, a slurry may be brought to the polishing platen in, for example, a single-pass distribution system. The normal expectation is that the slurry particles in their media will be distributed evenly between the rotating wafer, and the rotating platen and/or polishing pad. It is quite typical, however, for much of the polishing slurry to not be effective or not be productive because it is swept to the edge of the polishing pad/platen by centrifugal force, and/or by “squeegee” action of the wafer against the polishing pad/platen. Thus, this portion of the polishing slurry may never reach the wafer surface, rendering that portion of slurry an inactive participant in the polishing activity. In some instances, the hydrophobic nature of the surface of the polishing pad contributes to the polishing slurry being swept aside easily and ultimately, swept into a waste drain.
A force is applied to the wafer (e.g., by a substrate carrier head, e.g., via a pressure applied to a membrane within a carrier head) to provide pressure between the wafer and the polishing pad, and thus, press the wafer into the pad for processing. In addition, the wafer and the pad both have motion to create a relative velocity. The motion and force leads to portions of the pad creating abrasion by pushing the abrasive particles or other abrasive against the wafer (i.e., substrate) while it moves across the wafer surface. The corrosive chemicals in the slurry alter the material being polished on the surface of the wafer. This mechanical effect of abrasion combined with chemical alteration is called chemical mechanical planarization or polishing (CMP). Accordingly, the removal rate of material from the substrate can be orders of magnitude higher due to both the chemical and mechanical effects simultaneously compared to either one (chemical or mechanical) taken alone. Similarly, the smoothness of the surface after polishing may also be optimized by using chemical and mechanical effects together.
Yield is the driving force in determining success at the manufacturing level for many products (e.g., integrated circuits, MEMS, LEDs, etc.). Accordingly, the accumulated cost of manufacturing a solid-state device is termed the “Cost-of-Ownership” (CoO) and this term is also applied to each of the required manufacturing steps. Ultimately, the CoO of the CMP process is one of the highest CoO figures in the individual manufacturing steps required to make a semiconductor “chip” and its associated digital device.
Two challenges in the CMP process are the reduction of the amount of polishing slurry needed per layer being polished and increasing the lifetime of the polishing pad and the polishing slurry. Another challenge is to provide accurate monitoring and control of material removal rate, substrate uniformity, layer thickness, and endpoint detection during the CMP process, to increase yield and reduce waste.
For several years, various individuals and innovative companies have attempted to manufacture recycling systems for the polishing slurries. These systems have mostly been either off-line in nature (i.e., away from the polishing room) or in-line in nature (i.e., within the slurry distribution system at Point-of-Use (POU) positioned near each polishing machine). Four important factors to monitor and control for effective CMP polishing slurries are the pH of the slurry, the particle size of the abrasive component, the specific gravity of the slurry, and the cleanliness of the slurry.
As the slurry is distributed onto the polishing pad, environmental factors, such as evaporation, tend to change the fluid media content in the slurry. This change in content tends to affect the pH of the slurry, which, in turn, tends to negatively affect the specific gravity of the slurry. During the polishing process, material (e.g., copper, polysilicon, etc.) is removed from the surface of the wafer that creates microscopic particles. These microscopic particles either remain in suspension in the slurry, become embedded in the polishing pad or some combination of both. These microscopic particles cause scratches on the surface of the film being polished, and thus catastrophic failures in the circuitry.
These physical changes in the make-up of the polishing slurry, while perhaps not disastrous to certain lapping slurries or fine grind slurries in machine shops and precision optical manufacturing applications, can render the surfaces of semiconductor silicon wafers tragically, catastrophically, and/or permanently damaged. These scratches and failures can render a damaged chip useless, and thus negatively affect yield. For these and other reasons, slurry recycling/recirculation systems, while common in metal lapping applications and in some precision optical applications where surface quality tolerances are in microns, have not been particularly successful in the CMP process industry (e.g., within semiconductor fabs) or, for example, in foundries where surface quality tolerances are measured in nanometers and even Angstroms.
It is an object of the disclosed technology to address the many issues described above, with respect to substrate waste, yield and CoO, for example, through the utilization of an in-situ monitoring system in the CMP process to provide increased CMP yields and an overall improvement in the CMP process.
Referring to system 100 of
The process improvement system 130 can be mounted stationary relative to, and above the surface of the polishing pad 110, as shown in
In an embodiment, the slurry delivery system 140 can deliver a slurry (e.g., a polishing slurry) to a surface of a polishing pad 110. The polishing slurry may include or contain sub-micron abrasive and corrosive particles. In a non-limiting example, the polishing slurry typically comprises colloidal suspensions of abrasive particles (e.g., colloidal silica, colloidal alumina, colloidal ceria, etc.). In some embodiments, the abrasive particles are suspended in a water-based medium or any other suitable medium. In various embodiments, the slurry delivery system 140 includes a metering pump, a mass-flow-control regulator system, or any other suitable fluid delivery components as a person of ordinary skill in the art would understand.
Accordingly, abrasive particles and corrosive chemicals in the slurry, deposited by the slurry delivery system 140 on the polishing pad 110, mechanically and chemically polish the wafer through abrasion and corrosion, respectively. As shown, the slurry delivery system 140 delivers a slurry that flows downward through the system and ultimately, onto polishing pad 110. In some embodiments, wafer carrier 150 and polishing pad 110 can move relative to each other in any number of different ways, to provide the polishing. For example, wafer carrier 150 can apply a downward force against the platen 120, such that the wafer 155 is pressed against the polishing pad 110, with abrasive particles and corrosive chemicals of the slurry between the wafer 155 and the polishing pad 110 providing chemical and mechanical polishing while polishing pad 110 and wafer carrier 150 move relative to each other. The relative motion between polishing pads and wafer carriers can be configured in various ways, as would be understood by a person of ordinary skill in the art, and either or both can be configured to oscillate, move linearly, and/or rotate, counter clockwise and/or clockwise relative to each other. The movement can be provided through various mechanical or electro-mechanical apparatus, such as motors, linear actuators, robots, encoders, gear boxes, transmissions, etc., and combinations thereof.
Pad conditioning arm 160 conditions the surface of polishing pad 110, by pressing against polishing pad 110 with a force, with relative movement therebetween, such as the relative motion described above with respect to the polishing pad and wafer carrier 155. The pad conditioning arm 160 in the illustrated embodiment can oscillate, with a pad conditioner at one end. In some embodiments, the pad conditioner is configured to rotate clockwise or counterclockwise, for example. In some embodiments, the pad conditioner contacts polishing pad 110 and may make contact as the pad conditioner rotates.
Although
In addition, the CMP system, including the wafer carrier, the polishing platen, and/or the slurry distribution system, may be configured to be controlled by a control system (e.g., the controller 165 of
Systems and Methods for In-Situ Measurement of Material Removal and/or Film Thickness
CMP processes may employ various methods for monitoring material removal and/or film/layer thickness in-situ. Typically, these processes use an average of many measurements, or rely on a single measurement that represents the condition of the entire wafer 155 surface. Due to the use of an average or single measurement, such techniques may not accurately represent the current state of the wafer 155 surface, for example, due to the presence of variations (e.g., peaks and valleys) in the wafer 155 surface.
Aspects of this disclosure relate to system and methods which can use a single or specified number of measurement values, at specified or algorithmically-determined locations, in order to address certain workpiece types, or characteristics, and to provide improved measurement accuracy and higher signal-to-noise ratios.
As is described in detail below, the controller 165 may take multiple measurements and integrate the measurements to determine an average value per scan of the wafer 155 surface area seen by the detector 136 (e.g., ISRM optics). In certain applications, such as wafers 155 having a film with a wide range of film thickness across the wafer 155, the signal generated by the detector 136 may be too noisy to effectively measure the real-time thickness of the film with sufficient accuracy.
Another type of process monitoring uses the measured current of one or more motors to detect changes in friction between the polishing pad 110 and wafer 155 surface, as an indication of changes in the wafer 155 surface during polishing. The amount of friction between the polishing pad 110 and wafer 155 can change and be detected, for example, after a tungsten film has been removed sufficiently to expose an underlying oxide film. While this method uses single measurement points, each measurement point reflects an average or aggregate of conditions on the entire wafer surface, and not individual, known locations.
With reference to
In certain implementations, the CMP system can include advanced control systems, in which the exact location of the above listed variables are available to the controller 165 software in real time. For example, embodiments of CMP systems herein can use high-resolution, absolute position encoders connected via a high-speed, deterministic industrial communication network to monitor the positions of all servo axes at intervals as short as 100 microseconds, and produce the above listed variables, or other variables. For instance, the position encoders can be used to determine the relative spatial positions of the carrier (and thus the wafer 555 held by the carrier) with respect to the platen 520 and polishing pad as well as the current angular positions of the wafer and polishing pad. Using the spatial positions and angular positions provided by the position encoders, the system can determine the values illustrated in
Thus, it is possible for the CMP system to make repeated measurements at specific measurement point(s) 580 on the wafer 555 accurately and consistently, which reduces the variability, or “noise” associated with making more or less random measurements over time, and integrating or averaging those data points to calculate a single data point for analysis. Information determined by such measurements and analysis may be used to control certain aspects of the CMP process. For example, when removing a reflective metal layer over an underlying transparent dielectric layer, the process can be terminated once the required metal removal has been completed. In another example, when removing a prescribed thickness of a homogenous transparent material, the process can be terminated based on the measurement of the thickness, for example, once the prescribed thickness has been reached.
Another aspect of this disclosure is the use of a software algorithm by the controller 165 to take test measurements on multiple locations of the wafer 555, and analyze the data from each site 580 to determine the suitability of using individual sites 580 for repeated measurement. For example, certain sites 580 can be predetermined for measurement and corresponding signal analysis, and them compared to determine the best quality sites 580 for use in subsequent measurements. The system can determine signal quality based on different aspects of the signal samples, such as: amplitude consistency, light spectrum goodness-of-fit (for spectroscopic light source implementations), and others. The controller 165 can then proceed to selectively measure those sites 580 that the controller has determined as providing the best and most useful signal for the remainder of the CMP process.
Another aspect of this disclosure is the ability of the controller 165 to manipulate the motion of the wafer 555 in-situ in order to make measurements at the same location(s) 580 without adversely affecting the CMP process. Typical relative motions during CMP are determined by multiple variables: platen rotation speed, wafer rotation speed, wafer oscillation range, and wafer oscillation frequency. The combination of these variable dictates that the relative position of the measurement sensor may be substantially random for each and every point on the wafer 555. However, in certain aspects the controller 165 can utilizes the hardware and software controls to alter one or more of the above-listed variables on-the-fly, to thereby provide predictive and consistent control the relative position of the optical detector 536 to any site on the wafer 555, without interrupting, disrupting, or otherwise adversely affecting the CMP process.
The method 1200 starts at block 1201. At block 1202, the method 1200 involves receiving a first signal from an optical detector. The detector can be positioned on a side of a polishing pad opposite the substrate. The polishing pad can include an opening extending therethrough.
At block 1204, the method 1200 involves receiving second signals from one or more position encoders. The second signals can be indicative of the spatial and angular positions of a carrier and a platen. The carrier can be configured to retain the substrate and the platen supporting the polishing pad.
At block 1206, the method 1200 involves identifying one or more measurement sites on the substrate based on the second signals.
At block 1208, the method 1200 involves selecting one or more of the measurement sites for repeated measurements based on the first signal.
At block 1210, the method 1200 involves determining the removal rate and/or thickness of the film of the substrate at the selected one or more of the measurement sites based on the first signal and the second signals.
By executing the method 1200, the sensor 300 can provide a more reliable signal to the polisher control system, which can then immediately stop all motion at block 1210 to prevent or minimize damage to the wafer, polishing pad, carrier, etc. based on the signal received from the sensor. By providing a more reliable signal, the methods and systems described herein can prevent the false-detection of a slip due to changes in the polishing conditions which may occur before a steady-state is achieved, which may be a limitation to other traditional techniques.
Additionally, it will be understood that the in-situ monitoring embodiments described herein are not limited to a single-carrier, single-platen system, and can be implemented in other CMP equipment, including multiple-head CMP systems, orbital CMP systems, or other CMP systems.
