Description

本発明は、ウエハ等の加熱対象物の加熱に用いられる加熱装置、および、その加熱装置を用いた温度測定方法に関する。 The present invention relates to a heating device used to heat a heating object such as a wafer, and a temperature measurement method using the heating device.

従前より、LED(発光ダイオード)等の光を発する発光半導体チップで加熱対象物を加熱する技術が開発されている(例えば、特許文献1)。 Technology has been developed for some time now in which an object is heated using light-emitting semiconductor chips that emit light, such as LEDs (light-emitting diodes) (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

また、特許文献1には、光を半導体チップで受光して温度測定を行う温度センサを用いて、この加熱対象物の温度を測定することも開示されている。 Patent document 1 also discloses that the temperature of the object to be heated is measured using a temperature sensor that receives light with a semiconductor chip and measures the temperature.

しかしながら、温度センサは、温度センサ自身の温度が変化すると温度測定結果にブレが出て精度よく測定できないことから、当該温度センサを加熱源である発光半導体チップから遠ざけて別の場所に配置するのが一般的であった。 However, when the temperature of the temperature sensor itself changes, the temperature measurement results become unstable and the temperature sensor cannot measure accurately, so it has been common to place the temperature sensor away from the light-emitting semiconductor chip, which is the heat source, in a separate location.

しかし、温度センサを加熱源から遠ざけて配置すると、加熱装置全体の構成が複雑になり、製造や調整が難しくなるといった問題があった。 However, placing the temperature sensor away from the heat source creates problems such as the overall configuration of the heating device becoming more complex and difficult to manufacture and adjust.

本発明は、このような課題に鑑みてなされたものであり、その目的は、加熱源である発光半導体チップの近傍に温度センサが配置できる加熱装置、および、その加熱装置を用いた温度測定方法を提供することにある。 The present invention was made in consideration of these problems, and its purpose is to provide a heating device in which a temperature sensor can be placed near the light-emitting semiconductor chip that serves as the heat source, and a temperature measurement method using the heating device.

本発明に係る加熱装置によれば、加熱用半導体チップおよび温度センサを冷却する冷却装を備えているので、温度センサ自身の温度を一定にすることができる。これにより、加熱源である発光半導体チップの近傍に温度センサを配置しても温度センサ自身の温度が変化して温度測定結果にブレが出るのを抑制でき、加熱対象物の温度を精度よく測定することができる。 The heating device according to the present invention is equipped with a cooling device that cools the heating semiconductor chip and the temperature sensor, so the temperature of the temperature sensor itself can be kept constant. This makes it possible to suppress fluctuations in the temperature measurement results caused by changes in the temperature of the temperature sensor itself even if the temperature sensor is placed near the light-emitting semiconductor chip, which is the heat source, and allows the temperature of the object to be heated to be measured with high accuracy.

(加熱装置10の構成)
本実施形態に係る加熱装置10は、図1および図2に示すように、大略、基板12と、加熱用半導体チップ14と、温度センサ16と、冷却装置18とを備えている。
(Configuration of heating device 10)
As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the heating device 10 according to this embodiment generally includes a substrate 12, a heating semiconductor chip 14, a temperature sensor 16, and a cooling device 18.

基板12は、その表面に複数の加熱用半導体チップ14や温度センサ16が実装されるものであり、図示しないが、これら加熱用半導体チップ14や温度センサ16に給電等するための回路や電流電圧変換回路24も形成されている。 The substrate 12 has a number of heating semiconductor chips 14 and temperature sensors 16 mounted on its surface, and although not shown, also has circuits for supplying power to these heating semiconductor chips 14 and temperature sensors 16 and a current-voltage conversion circuit 24 formed thereon.

また、基板12は、セラミックス、または、金属をベースにした材質で形成されている。 The substrate 12 is also made of a ceramic or metal-based material.

さらに、基板12の表面には、一対(陽極と陰極)の加熱用半導体チップ電極パッド20と、3つ(DC電圧印加と、アウトプットと、GND)の温度センサ用電極パッド22が設けられている。 Furthermore, the surface of the substrate 12 is provided with a pair of semiconductor chip electrode pads 20 for heating (anode and cathode) and three electrode pads 22 for temperature sensors (DC voltage application, output, and GND).

図3に電流電圧変換回路24の一例を示す。この電流電圧変換回路24は、加熱用半導体チップ14を発光させるための回路とは別に設けられており、温度センサ16の電流信号を電圧信号に変換して読み取るようになっている。なお、電流電圧変換回路24は基板12の表面上に設けてもよいし、基板12の外に設けてもよい。 Figure 3 shows an example of the current-voltage conversion circuit 24. This current-voltage conversion circuit 24 is provided separately from the circuit for making the heating semiconductor chip 14 emit light, and converts the current signal of the temperature sensor 16 into a voltage signal and reads it. The current-voltage conversion circuit 24 may be provided on the surface of the substrate 12, or may be provided outside the substrate 12.

具体的に、電流電圧変換回路24は、コンデンサ26と抵抗28とを有しており、DC電圧印加の温度センサ用電極パッド22が温度センサ16(フォトトランジスタの場合)のアノードに接続されており、温度センサ16のカソードがアウトプットの温度センサ用電極パッド22に接続されている。また、GNDの温度センサ用電極パッド22も温度センサ16のカソードにコンデンサ26を介して接続されており、アウトプットの温度センサ用電極パッド22のラインと、GNDの温度センサ用電極パッド22のラインとの間に抵抗28が架橋されている。 Specifically, the current-voltage conversion circuit 24 has a capacitor 26 and a resistor 28, and the temperature sensor electrode pad 22 for applying DC voltage is connected to the anode of the temperature sensor 16 (in the case of a phototransistor), and the cathode of the temperature sensor 16 is connected to the output temperature sensor electrode pad 22. The GND temperature sensor electrode pad 22 is also connected to the cathode of the temperature sensor 16 via the capacitor 26, and a resistor 28 is bridged between the line of the output temperature sensor electrode pad 22 and the line of the GND temperature sensor electrode pad 22.

加熱対象物Xの温度センシング方法について具体的に説明すると、加熱対象物Xの温度が上がるほど電流電圧変換回路24の出力電圧が高くなるため、事前に熱電対などの温度計で測定した加熱対象物Xの温度と電流電圧変換回路24の出力電圧値について相関データを取得しておき、実際に加熱装置10として使用する際に、事前に取得した相関データから加熱対象物Xの温度を計算する方法が取られる。 Specifically, the temperature sensing method for the object to be heated X will be described. As the temperature of the object to be heated X increases, the output voltage of the current-voltage conversion circuit 24 increases. Therefore, correlation data is acquired in advance between the temperature of the object to be heated X measured with a thermometer such as a thermocouple and the output voltage value of the current-voltage conversion circuit 24. When actually using the heating device 10, the temperature of the object to be heated X is calculated from the correlation data acquired in advance.

加熱用半導体チップ14は、ウエハ等の加熱対象物Xを加熱するのに適した波長の光Lを放射するものであり、例えば、レーザー、LED、あるいは、VCSELが考えられる。本実施形態では、450nmの発光ピーク波長を有するLEDが使用されている。なお、加熱用半導体チップ14からの発光波長を1000nm未満とするのが好適である。また、加熱用半導体チップ14からの発光波長を300nm以上1000nm未満としてもよい。 The heating semiconductor chip 14 emits light L with a wavelength suitable for heating the heating object X such as a wafer, and may be, for example, a laser, an LED, or a VCSEL. In this embodiment, an LED with an emission peak wavelength of 450 nm is used. It is preferable that the emission wavelength from the heating semiconductor chip 14 is less than 1000 nm. The emission wavelength from the heating semiconductor chip 14 may also be 300 nm or more and less than 1000 nm.

加熱用半導体チップ14の発光波長を1000nm未満とする理由について、温度センサ16は、加熱対象物Xを加熱した際に当該加熱対象物Xから放射される近赤外線を感知して温度を計測するため、加熱用半導体チップ14から放射される光に波長1000nm以上の光が含まれると、温度センサ16が加熱用半導体チップ14からの光Lに反応してしまい正確に温度を計測する事ができなくなるからである。 The reason why the emission wavelength of the heating semiconductor chip 14 is set to less than 1000 nm is that the temperature sensor 16 measures the temperature by sensing the near-infrared radiation emitted from the heating object X when the heating object X is heated. If the light emitted from the heating semiconductor chip 14 contains light with a wavelength of 1000 nm or more, the temperature sensor 16 will react to the light L from the heating semiconductor chip 14 and will not be able to measure the temperature accurately.

また、紫外線による加熱対象物Xおよび温度センサ16の極端な劣化を防止するため、加熱用半導体チップ14の発光波長は300nm以上が好適である。さらに、常温(25℃付近)の温度をセンシングするためには、一般的に中赤外から遠赤外の受光素子が使用されるが、本実施形態では、近赤外のInGaAs素子を使用して少なくとも25℃から300℃までの温度をセンシングすることが可能である。 In order to prevent extreme deterioration of the heating object X and the temperature sensor 16 due to ultraviolet rays, the emission wavelength of the heating semiconductor chip 14 is preferably 300 nm or more. Furthermore, to sense the temperature at room temperature (around 25°C), a mid-infrared to far-infrared light receiving element is generally used, but in this embodiment, a near-infrared InGaAs element is used to sense temperatures from at least 25°C to 300°C.

加熱用半導体チップ14としてLEDを用いる場合、当該LEDの上面に、LEDの裏面とは極性が異なる電極パッド(図示せず)を設け、この電極パッドを金等でできたワイヤを介して基板12の回路上に接続する。 When an LED is used as the heating semiconductor chip 14, an electrode pad (not shown) with a polarity different from that of the back surface of the LED is provided on the top surface of the LED, and this electrode pad is connected to the circuit of the substrate 12 via a wire made of gold or the like.

本実施形態では、1枚の基板12の表面上に35個の加熱用半導体チップ14がダイアタッチ材等を介して実装されているが、1枚の基板12に実装される加熱用半導体チップ14の数は特に限定されるものではない。なお、加熱用半導体チップ14は、ベアチップを基板12に実装するだけでなく、基板12に実装された状態のパッケージ製品であってもよい。 In this embodiment, 35 heating semiconductor chips 14 are mounted on the surface of one substrate 12 via a die attach material or the like, but the number of heating semiconductor chips 14 mounted on one substrate 12 is not particularly limited. Note that the heating semiconductor chips 14 may not only be mounted as bare chips on the substrate 12, but may also be packaged products mounted on the substrate 12.

温度センサ16は、加熱用半導体チップ14からの光Lによって加熱された加熱対象物Xの温度を測定するためのセンサであり、例えば、フォトダイオードや、フォトトランジスタといった温度測定用半導体チップが考えられる。本実施形態では、900から2500nmの波長に受光感度を有するフォトダイオードが使用されている。なお、フォトダイオードの受光感度波長は、900から1600nmであってもよい。 The temperature sensor 16 is a sensor for measuring the temperature of the heating object X heated by the light L from the heating semiconductor chip 14, and may be, for example, a semiconductor chip for measuring temperature such as a photodiode or a phototransistor. In this embodiment, a photodiode having a light receiving sensitivity at wavelengths from 900 to 2500 nm is used. The light receiving sensitivity wavelength of the photodiode may be from 900 to 1600 nm.

また、フォトダイオードについてもLEDと同様、ダイアタッチ材等を介して基板12の表面上に実装され、フォトダイオードの上面に、フォトダイオードの裏面とは極性が異なる電極パッド(図示せず)を設け、この電極パッドを金等でできたワイヤを介して基板12の回路上に接続されている。 As with the LED, the photodiode is mounted on the surface of the substrate 12 via a die attach material or the like, and an electrode pad (not shown) with a different polarity from the back surface of the photodiode is provided on the top surface of the photodiode, and this electrode pad is connected to the circuit of the substrate 12 via a wire made of gold or the like.

また、フォトダイオードやフォトトランジスタの電気信号を増大させるための部品やノイズを除去するための電子部品を温度センサ16と一緒に基板12の表面に配置してもよい。なお、温度センサ16は、ベアチップを基板12に実装するだけでなく、基板12に実装された状態のパッケージ製品であってもよい。 In addition, components for increasing the electrical signal of the photodiode or phototransistor and electronic components for removing noise may be placed on the surface of the substrate 12 together with the temperature sensor 16. Note that the temperature sensor 16 may not only be a bare chip mounted on the substrate 12, but may also be a packaged product mounted on the substrate 12.

本実施形態では、1枚の基板12の表面上にひとつの温度センサ16が実装されており、かつ、当該温度センサ16は、加熱用半導体チップ14が光Lを放射する方向(加熱対象物Xに向かう方向)と同じ方向に向けて配置されている。 In this embodiment, one temperature sensor 16 is mounted on the surface of one substrate 12, and the temperature sensor 16 is arranged facing the same direction as the direction in which the heating semiconductor chip 14 emits light L (toward the object to be heated X).

また、温度センサ16を基板12に実装する際には、熱伝導性が高いグリスやシート等を介して基板12を冷却装置18に固定するのが好適である。これにより、自身の温度が変化すると光電変換の特性が変化する温度測定用半導体チップの温度を安定させて、正確な温度測定を行うことができる。 When mounting the temperature sensor 16 on the substrate 12, it is preferable to fix the substrate 12 to the cooling device 18 via a highly thermally conductive grease, sheet, or the like. This stabilizes the temperature of the temperature measuring semiconductor chip, whose photoelectric conversion characteristics change when its own temperature changes, allowing for accurate temperature measurement.

さらに言えば、温度センサ16を基板12の中央部ではなく外縁の方に配置することで、当該温度センサ16自身の温度を安定させることができる。 Furthermore, by placing the temperature sensor 16 on the outer edge of the substrate 12 rather than in the center, the temperature of the temperature sensor 16 itself can be stabilized.

冷却装置18は、発光中の加熱用半導体チップ14や温度測定中の温度センサ16を冷却してこれらの温度が一定となるように制御するための装置である。冷却装置18による冷却方式としては、例えば、水冷やペルチェ素子が考えられる。 The cooling device 18 is a device for cooling the heating semiconductor chip 14 during light emission and the temperature sensor 16 during temperature measurement, and controlling these temperatures to be constant. Possible cooling methods for the cooling device 18 include, for example, water cooling and Peltier elements.

(加熱装置10の特性)
温度センサ16による加熱対象物Xの温度測定結果に基づいて加熱用半導体チップ14からの発光量を調整(例えば、加熱用半導体チップ14に供給する電流値を調整)して、加熱対象物Xの加熱温度が制御される。
(Characteristics of Heating Device 10)
The heating temperature of the object X to be heated is controlled by adjusting the amount of light emitted from the heating semiconductor chip 14 (for example, by adjusting the value of the current supplied to the heating semiconductor chip 14) based on the temperature measurement result of the object X to be heated by the temperature sensor 16.

(変形例1)
上述した実施形態では、1枚の基板12の表面に複数の加熱用半導体チップ14と温度センサ16とが実装されていたが、これに変えて、複数の加熱用半導体チップ14が実装された基板12と、温度センサ16が実装された基板12とを別にして、これら両方の基板12を冷却装置18で一定温度に制御してもよい。
(Variation 1)
In the above-described embodiment, a plurality of heating semiconductor chips 14 and a temperature sensor 16 are mounted on the surface of a single substrate 12. Alternatively, the substrate 12 on which the plurality of heating semiconductor chips 14 are mounted and the substrate 12 on which the temperature sensor 16 is mounted may be separate substrates, and both of these substrates 12 may be controlled to a constant temperature by a cooling device 18.

(変形例2)
また、加熱用半導体チップ14からの発光量を多くするために、当該加熱用半導体チップ14に供給する電流値を大きくすると、加熱用半導体チップ14自身が昇温して基板12および温度センサ16まで昇温してしまい、冷却装置18では温度センサ16を一定温度に制御するのが難しい場合がある。このような場合は、加熱用半導体チップ14の電流値に応じた温度センサ16の温度測定結果の換算値、あるいは、基板12の温度に応じた温度センサ16の温度測定結果の換算値を予め用意しておくと、より正確な加熱対象物Xの温度測定が可能となる。
(Variation 2)
Furthermore, if the current value supplied to the heating semiconductor chip 14 is increased in order to increase the amount of light emitted from the heating semiconductor chip 14, the heating semiconductor chip 14 itself will rise in temperature, which will in turn raise the temperatures of the substrate 12 and the temperature sensor 16, making it difficult for the cooling device 18 to control the temperature sensor 16 to a constant temperature. In such cases, if a converted value of the temperature measurement result of the temperature sensor 16 corresponding to the current value of the heating semiconductor chip 14 or a converted value of the temperature measurement result of the temperature sensor 16 corresponding to the temperature of the substrate 12 is prepared in advance, the temperature of the heated object X can be measured more accurately.

(変形例3)
さらに、加熱用半導体チップ14の発光波長と、温度センサ16の受光感度波長とが互いに重ならないようにこれら発光波長と受光感度波長とを選択するのが好適である。これにより、ウエハ等の加熱対象物Xの温度をより精度良く測定することができる。また、加熱用半導体チップ14の発光中であっても加熱対象物Xの温度測定が可能となる。
(Variation 3)
Furthermore, it is preferable to select the emission wavelength of the heating semiconductor chip 14 and the light receiving sensitivity wavelength of the temperature sensor 16 so that they do not overlap with each other. This allows the temperature of the heating object X, such as a wafer, to be measured with higher accuracy. Also, it becomes possible to measure the temperature of the heating object X even while the heating semiconductor chip 14 is emitting light.

なお、加熱用半導体チップ14の発光波長と、温度センサ16の受光感度波長とが少しでも重なる場合、図4に示すように、その重なる波長の光Lをカットできるカットフィルター30を温度センサ16の表面に配置するのが好適である。 If there is even a slight overlap between the emission wavelength of the heating semiconductor chip 14 and the light receiving sensitivity wavelength of the temperature sensor 16, it is preferable to place a cut filter 30 capable of cutting the light L of the overlapping wavelength on the surface of the temperature sensor 16, as shown in Figure 4.

また、加熱対象物Xから放射される近赤外線の量が温度センサ16の許容量に対して大きすぎると、温度センサ16が光飽和をおこして、加熱対象物Xの温度が上昇しても当該温度センサ16の出力電流または出力電圧が上昇しない現象が発生し正しく温度が測定できなくなる場合がある。そのような場合、温度センサ16と加熱対象物Xとの間に減光フィルターを配置する事で正しく温度が測定できる。 In addition, if the amount of near-infrared radiation emitted from the object to be heated X is too large for the tolerance of the temperature sensor 16, the temperature sensor 16 may become optically saturated, causing the output current or output voltage of the temperature sensor 16 to not increase even if the temperature of the object to be heated X increases, making it impossible to measure the temperature correctly. In such cases, the temperature can be measured correctly by placing a neutral density filter between the temperature sensor 16 and the object to be heated X.

今回開示された実施の形態はすべての点で例示であって制限的なものではないと考えられるべきである。本発明の範囲は、上記した説明ではなく、特許請求の範囲によって示され、特許請求の範囲と均等の意味および範囲内でのすべての変更が含まれることが意図される。 The embodiments disclosed herein should be considered to be illustrative and not restrictive in all respects.
