本研究是少數以金屬玻璃鍍層(Thin Film Metallic Glass, TFMG)的低摩擦係數(Low coefficient of friction, CoF)優良特性來提升鑽石切割刀在晶圓切割上的切削品質、單位面積使用率。在高真空環境中以高功率脈衝磁控濺鍍系統(HiPIMs)將厚度200 nm的金屬玻璃鍍層鍍覆於鑽石切割刀表面,鑽石切割刀選用三種常見的金屬結合劑(Metal bond)、樹脂結合劑(Resin bond)與電鑄(Electroformed)燒結之鑽石切割刀片,對半導體產業廣泛使用的矽(Silicon)、碳化矽(Silicon carbide)與玻璃(Borofloat33)晶圓基板做切割結果分析與優化程度的比較。
首先共使用六種不同成分的金屬玻璃鍍層包含鋯基(Zr-based)、鎢基(W-based)、鋁基(Al-based)、鉻基(Cr-based)、純鈦(Pure Ti)以及多層膜(multi-layer)的金屬玻璃鍍層鑽石切割刀對矽晶圓基板切割並與無鍍層(Bare)的鑽石切割刀比較結果;其次改變切削時的鑽石刀轉速(blade rotational speed)、進刀速率(feed rate),比較金屬玻璃鍍層鑽石刀優化程度的差異;以及使用金屬玻璃鍍層鑽石刀抑制特殊結構的矽基板切削時切割道蛇行、歪斜的程度;除了對矽晶圓,也同樣對碳化矽與玻璃基板做相似的切割比較。
在使用多種成分鍍層的測試上,鋯基金屬玻璃鍍層之鑽石切割刀對切割矽晶圓具有最佳的優化效果,與無鍍層鑽石刀片相比有54.5%的崩裂面積減少分率、偏差最小的切割道角度分布、最接近設定值的基板切割深度與切割道上最低的表面粗糙度。因此後續實驗以鋯基成分的鍍層鑽石刀進行,改變切割參數的結果顯示鍍層鑽石刀仍有優化切割的效果;抑制切割道蛇行的程度在低進刀速率時,鍍層鑽石刀能有效降低切割道的偏移量,但是當進刀速率提升後,鍍層鑽石刀的改善效果便不明顯;對碳化矽與玻璃基板切割時,鍍層鑽石刀仍然可以降低原本的崩裂程度,但是效果卻沒有如對矽切割來得顯著,原因是樹脂結合劑的鑽石刀自我再生(self-dressing)速度較快,在表面上的鍍層也較快被消耗完,優化的程度便不明顯。
整體來說以鋯基金屬玻璃鍍層鑽石刀能有良好的切割品質,其原因來自鍍層本身的低摩擦系數、疏水性佳與耐磨的特性。
In this study, the low coefficient of friction (CoF) of Thin Film Metallic Glass (TFMG) is used to improve the dicing quality and unit area utilization of diamond blades in the wafer dicing process. The thickness of 200 nm TFMG coating was deposited on the surface of diamond dicing blade by HiPIMs in a high vacuum chamber, the three common metal bond, resin bond, and electroformed sintered diamond dicing blades were used. The dicing results and the optimization of dicing on silicon, silicon carbide, and glass (Borofloat33) workpieces were investigated and analyzed.
The first experiment in this study, six different compositions including Zr-based, W-based, Al-based, Cr-based, Pure Ti, and multilayer TFMG coated diamond dicing blades were used to cut silicon wafers and compare them with the bare blade. Secondly, we change the blade rotational speed and feed rate during cutting to compare the difference in the optimization degree of the coated blade; and restrain the extent of wavy cutting appearance on the dicing street when dicing the silicon workpiece with special designed structure. Ultimately, the comparison of dicing silicon carbide and glass substrate was conducted with the same process.
In the experiment of multiple coatings, the zirconium-based TFMG blade had the best optimization effect on dicing silicon wafers, with a 54.5% reduction in chipping area, the least deviation in the angle distribution, the closest depth of kerf to the set value, and the lowest surface roughness on the dicing kerf compared to the bare blade. The results of adjusting the cutting parameters show that the coated blade still has the effect of optimizing the dicing performance; the restraint on wavy cutting can effectively reduce the deviation from the dicing kerf at a low feed rate, but when elevated the feed rate to 25 mm/sec, the improvement of the coated blade is not significant. For the dicing of silicon carbide and borofloat33, the coated blade can still have the reduction of chipping area from the bare blade. But the effect is not as significant as for dicing silicon, because the ability of self-dressing on resin bond dicing blade is faster, the coating on the surface worn out faster. Therefore, the optimization is not obvious in this case.
Overall, the promising dicing result of the Zr-TFMG-coated blade is due to the low friction coefficient, hydrophobicity, and wear resistance of the coating.
