    摘要: A substrate plating apparatus forms a plating layer on the surface of a substrate and stores the substrate until the next process in a way that the substrate is not exposed to the atmosphere. The substrate plating apparatus is not only capable of introducing semiconductor wafers continuously one by one into the plating apparatus without loading the wafers into cassettes, but is also capable of preventing particle contamination and the formation of oxidized film on the surface of the wafers, thus reducing the number of process and reducing the installation area required for the apparatus. The substrate plating apparatus includes a plating process section (20) for plating a substrate, a washing process section (10) for washing the substrate after the plating process, and a storage vessel (16) containing a storing solution in which the substrate is immersed after having been plated and washed. A substrate conveyor is provided in the substrate plating apparatus for loading substrates into the substrate plating apparatus and discharging substrates out of the substrate plating apparatus, or for performing at least one of the loading or discharging operations, such that the substrates are loaded into the substrate plating apparatus one at a time, plated in the plating process section, washed in the washing process section, and subsequently discharged one at a time from the substrate plating apparatus.

    摘要: A high quality metallic deposit can be produced inside the micro-cavities formed on a surface of a substrate by the present invention. The method involves immersing the substrate in a liquid held in a processing chamber, evacuating the processing chamber so as to remove residual bubbles from the micro-cavities and to degas the liquid within the micro-cavities, and subjecting the liquid to boiling in at least those regions adjacent to the substrate.

    摘要: An electroplating method can securely and efficiently fill a plated metal into deep high-aspect ratio vias in a bottom-up manner without producing defects in the plated metal. The electroplating method includes: immersing a substrate, having vias formed in a surface, and an anode in a plating solution in a plating tank, the anode being disposed opposite the surface of the substrate; and intermittently passing a plating current at a constant current value between the substrate and the anode in such a manner that the supply and the stop of the plating current are repeated, and that the proportion of a current supply time during which the plating current is supplied increases with the progress of plating, thereby filling a plated metal into the vias.

    摘要: A magnetic film plating apparatus employs a dip method that allows relatively good escape of bubbles and does not require a wide footprint and, even when a ferromagnetic material is used for an anode, can form a magnetic film on a substrate surface while minimizing the influence of the anode on the uniformity of magnetic anisotropy in the magnetic film. The magnetic film plating apparatus includes a plating tank for holding a plating solution; an anode vertically disposed in the plating tank at a position to be immersed in the plating solution; a substrate holder for holding a substrate W and positioning the substrate W opposite the anode; and a magnetic field generator, disposed outside the plating tank, for generating a magnetic field around the substrate W held by the substrate holder and positioned opposite the anode.

    摘要: The plating apparatus has a plating section in which a plating process is performed and a control section for regulating the plating solution. The plating section includes a plating bath containing plating solution, an anode provided in the plating solution, and a plating object serving as a cathode placed in the plating solution opposite the anode. The control section includes a regulating tank for regulating the composition and/or concentration of the plating solution, and a replenishing tank for injecting solution into the plating solution in the regulating tank. The plating apparatus also includes a mechanism for circulating plating solution between the regulating tank in the control section and the plating bath in the plating section. The plating section is installed in a first room, while the control section is installed in a second room, which is separate from the first room Accordingly, contamination in the plating section is prevented.
