On-The-Fly Beam Path Error Correction For Memory Link Processing

View page
US Patent:
6816294, Nov 9, 2004
Filed:
Feb 15, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/077691
Inventors:
Mark Unrath - Portland OR
Kelly Bruland - Portland OR
Ho Wai Lo - Portland OR
Stephen Swaringen - Rockwall TX
Assignee:
Electro Scientific Industries, Inc. - Portland OR
International Classification:
G02B 2608
US Classification:
359225, 359199, 21912178, 2191218
Abstract:
Laser beam positioners ( ) employ a steering mirror ( ) that performs small-angle deflection of a laser beam ( ) to compensate for cross-axis ( ) settling errors of a positioner stage ( ). A two-axis mirror is preferred because either axis of the positioner stages may be used for performing work. In one embodiment, the steering mirror is used for error correction only without necessarily requiring coordination with the positioner stage position commands. A fast steering mirror employing a flexure mechanism and piezoelectric actuators to tip and tilt the mirror is preferred in semiconductor link processing (âSLPâ) applications. This invention compensates for cross-axis settling time, resulting in increased SLP system throughput and accuracy while simplifying complexity of the positioner stages because the steering mirror corrections relax the positioner stage servo driving requirements.

On-The-Fly Laser Beam Path Error Correction For Specimen Target Location Processing

US Patent:
7245412, Jul 17, 2007
Filed:
Nov 9, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/985840
Inventors:
Kelly Bruland - Portland OR, US
Clint Vandergiessen - Beaverton OR, US
Keith Grant - Aloha OR, US
Stephen Swaringen - Rockwall TX, US
Assignee:
Electro Scientific Industries, Inc. - Portland OR
International Classification:
G02B 26/08
B23K 26/08
US Classification:
359225, 359199, 359900, 21912178, 2191218
Abstract:
A laser-based workpiece processing system includes sensors connected to a sensor controller that converts sensor signals into focused spot motion commands for actuating a beam steering device, such as a two-axis steering mirror. The sensors may include a beam position sensor for correcting errors detected in the optical path, such as thermally-induced beam wandering in response to laser or acousto-optic modulator pointing stability, or optical mount dynamics.

Semiconductor Structure Processing Using Multiple Laser Beam Spots Spaced On-Axis With Cross-Axis Offset

View page
US Patent:
7425471, Sep 16, 2008
Filed:
Feb 4, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/051958
Inventors:
Kelly J. Bruland - Portland OR, US
Brian W. Baird - Oregon City OR, US
Ho Wai Lo - Portland OR, US
Stephen N. Swaringen - Rockwall TX, US
Frank G. Evans - Dundee OR, US
Assignee:
Electro Scientific Industries, Inc. - Portland OR
International Classification:
H01L 21/82
US Classification:
438130, 438 13, 21912168
Abstract:
Methods and systems selectively irradiate structures on or within a semiconductor substrate using a plurality of laser beams. The structures are arranged in a row extending in a generally lengthwise direction. The method generates a first laser beam that propagates along a first laser beam axis that intersects the semiconductor substrate and a second laser beam that propagates along a second laser beam axis that intersects the semiconductor substrate. The method directs the first and second laser beams onto distinct first and second structures in the row. The second spot is offset from the first spot by some amount in a direction perpendicular to the lengthwise direction of the row. The method moves the first and second laser beam axes relative to the semiconductor substrate along the row substantially in unison in a direction substantially parallel to the lengthwise direction of the row.

US Patent:
7435927, Oct 14, 2008
Filed:
Feb 4, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/051265
Inventors:
Kelly J. Bruland - Portland OR, US
Brian W. Baird - Oregon City OR, US
Ho Wai Lo - Portland OR, US
Stephen N. Swaringen - Rockwall TX, US
Assignee:
Electron Scientific Industries, Inc. - Portland OR
International Classification:
B23K 26/38
B23K 26/067
US Classification:
21912169, 21912168, 21912176, 21912177
Abstract:
Multiple laser beams selectively irradiate electrically conductive structures on or within a semiconductor substrate. The structures are arranged in a plurality of substantially parallel rows extending in a generally lengthwise direction. One method propagates first and second laser beams along respective first and second propagation paths having respective first and second axes incident at respective first and second locations on or within the semiconductor substrate at a given time. The first and second locations are either on a structure in their respective rows or between two adjacent structures in their respective rows, which are distinct. The second location is offset from the first location by some amount in the lengthwise direction of the rows. The method moves the laser beam axes substantially in unison in the lengthwise direction of the rows relative to the semiconductor substrate, so as to selectively irradiate structures in the rows with the laser beams.

Filed:
Feb 4, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/052000
Inventors:
Kelly J. Bruland - Portland OR, US
Brian W. Baird - Oregon City OR, US
Ho Wai Lo - Portland OR, US
Stephen N. Swaringen - Rockwall TX, US

Assignee:
Electro Scientific Industries, Inc. - Portland OR
International Classification:
H01L 21/00
B23K 26/00
US Classification:
438132, 21912176
Abstract:
Methods and systems selectively irradiate structures on or within a semiconductor substrate using a plurality of pulsed laser beams. The structures are arranged in a row extending in a generally lengthwise direction. The method generates a first pulsed laser beam that propagates along a first laser beam axis that intersects the semiconductor substrate and a second pulsed laser beam that propagates along a second laser beam axis that intersects the semiconductor substrate. The method directs respective first and second pulses from the first and second pulsed laser beams onto distinct first and second structures in the row. The method moves the first and second laser beam axes relative to the semiconductor substrate substantially in unison in a direction substantially parallel to the lengthwise direction of the row.

Systems And Methods For Alignment Of Laser Beam(S) For Semiconductor Link Processing

US Patent:
8049135, Nov 1, 2011
Filed:
Jul 5, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/481562
Inventors:
Kelly J. Bruland - Portland OR, US
Stephen N. Swaringen - Rockwall TX, US
Assignee:
Electro Scientific Industries, Inc. - Portland OR
International Classification:
B23K 26/38
B23K 26/04
US Classification:
21912169, 21912168, 21912173, 21912181, 21912183
Abstract:
A method makes a discrete adjustment to static alignment of a laser beam in a machine for selectively irradiating conductive links on or within a semiconductor substrate using the laser beam. The laser beam propagates along a beam path having an axis extending from a laser to a laser beam spot at a location on or within the semiconductor substrate. The method generates, based on at least one measured characteristic of the laser beam, at least one signal to control an adjustable optical element of the machine effecting the laser beam path. The method also sends said at least one signal to the adjustable optical element. The method then adjusts the adjustable optical element in response to said at least one signal so as to improve static alignment of the laser beam path axis.
