However, since the distance D between the lens 33 of the stepper or scanning exposure device 3 and the photoresist 4 of the wafer W is usually very small (for example, between 1 mm and 10 mm), the uneven wafer W The change in distance D caused by the surface will cause its photoresist to leave the focus range of the lens 33

Abstract

A level adjustment system and an adjustable pin chuck are provided by the invention. The level adjustment system includes an adjustable pin chuck, an evacuation device, a level detection device and a length control device. The adjustable pin chuck includes a base and a variable pin to support a substrate. The base includes a recess and an evacuation channel connected thereto. The variable pin is disposed in the recess. The evacuation device is connected to the evacuation channel to evacuate the recess, such that the substrate is attached to the base and variable pin. The level detection device is disposed on the adjustable pin chuck to detect the horizontality of a target surface of the substrate. The length control device is electrically connected to the level detection device and variable pin. The length control device changes the length of the variable pin to adjust level of the target surface of the substrate according to the detected horizontality.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a flatness adjustment system, in particular to a flatness adjustment system capable of adjusting the flatness of a substrate. Background technique [0002] In the current semiconductor manufacturing process, pin chucks have been widely used to carry wafers so as to perform processes such as exposure on the wafers. [0003] see figure 1 A known needle-type bearing suction cup 1 mainly includes a base 11 , a vacuum pipeline 12 , a plurality of hollow needle-type bearing elements 13 and two interferometer mirrors 14 . A plurality of hollow needle bearing elements 13 are evenly formed on the base 11 , and the vacuum pipeline 12 is located in the base 11 , and the vacuum pipeline 12 is connected to the hollow interior of each hollow needle bearing element 13 . Two interfering mirrors 14 are disposed on two sides of the base 11 and can be used to position the wafer W. [0004] like figure 1 As shown, after the wafer W is placed o...
