1 Importance of Monitoring Slurry and Ultrapure Chemical Flow in CMP Applications Budge Johl, DOW Electronic Materials 2011 Levitronix Users Group Conference May 11, 2011
2 Introduction As device line widths continue to shrink process requirements are becoming more stringent Flow consistency of CMP slurries Chemical flow in post-cmp cleaning applications Un-optimized liquid flow monitoring can result in higher cost-ofownership (CoO) Monitoring and control of CMP slurry and ultrapure chemical flow is critical for CMP process consistency This led to the motive behind evaluating non-invasive ultrasonic flow monitoring technology for CMP process applications
3 Flow Meter Technologies There are a number of technologies available for monitoring flow including: Paddle wheel Turbine Rotameter Coriolis Vortex Differential pressure Magnetic and ultrasonic
4 Flow Meter Technologies: Limitations Paddle wheel, rotameter and turbine flow meters can lead to particle generation and increased pressure drops Abrasive particles in CMP slurries can effect the performance of paddle wheel, turbine, differential pressure, and vortex technologies over time Coriolis technology and certain ultrasonic devices may be sensitive to presence of bubbles in the process fluid In respect to the above issues the new ultrasonic technology was chosen for evaluation
5 Considerations for Slurry Flow Distribution and Health Metrology Calculating slurry turnovers and potential shear exposure to slurry during its distribution is important for monitoring slurry health Fluid mechanics Flow Instrumental in calculating Reynolds # Equation: Re = ρvd/µ where: ρ (rho) = fluid density v = mean fluid velocity D = pipe diameter µ (mu) = fluid viscosity Flow regimes: Laminar vs. Turbulent; Transitional Note: The Transitional and High Reynolds may produce flow instabilities with chaotic eddies and vortices, resulting in excessive shearing/damage to slurry Slurry Information Necessary for Optimum Slurry Distribution System Designs

11 Ultrasonic Flow Meter Technologies Experimental Data The non-invasive ultrasonic unit in this study was exposed to bubbles and shown to detect and compensate for bubbles in the slurry stream. High and low flow alarms can be set to warn the operator of out of control conditions. The slurry was exposed to > 1,000 turnovers with the unit placed inline in the slurry global loop with no adverse effects on removal rate films or defectivity as shown in Figures 3 & 4.
