Abstract :
A single wafer immersion system has been shown to meet the particle, etch, and drying requirements for sub-90 nm process technologies. The system would be used for surface preparation applications including cleaning deep trench devices without water marks, critical cleans where ultra low Si and SiO2 consumption is required, pre-diffusion cleans, and as a replacement of conventional, high concentration RCA wet cleaning processes.
