Abstract

The invention relates to a semiconductor wafer cooling device and aims to provide the circumference inhibiting temperature deviation of a semiconductor wafer as a radiated object and cooling the semiconductor wafer at the same time. The semiconductor wafer cooling device is provided with a tray (1) having a carrying face for carrying the semiconductor wafer (10); a cooling channel (2) arranged in the tray (1) through which cooling medium cooling the semiconductor wafer (10) carried on the carrying face flows; and a vacuum channel (3) provided with an opening in the carrying face, arranged on the tray (1) and absorbing the semiconductor wafer (10) carried on the carrying face.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a semiconductor wafer cooling device including a tray for placing and cooling a semiconductor wafer as an object to be irradiated when irradiating radiation. Background technique [0002] The time for electrons to recombine in a p-type semiconductor material or the time for holes to recombine in an n-type semiconductor material is called the minority carrier lifetime. In order to recombine more rapidly the remaining minority carriers after conduction, it is necessary to control the lifetime, and this lifetime control is performed by diffusing heavy metals such as gold and platinum or by irradiating charged particles such as electrons and protons. [0003] In order to prevent the temperature rise of the semiconductor wafer in such a radiation irradiation process, a cooling duct through which a cooling medium such as cooling water flows is provided in the tray on which the semiconductor wafer is placed, and the wafer is c...
