Problems solved by technology

[0004] 1. Since the silicon wafer is vertically inserted into the cleaning basket, the ultrasonic wave source diverges from the bottom upward, and there is a gradient problem in the ultrasonic wave, which makes the cleaning of the silicon wafer uneven and the cleanliness of the cleaning is limited;
[0005] 2. Since the cleaning basket is made of PTFE material, the material has a certain effect of blocking and absorbing ultrasonic waves, making the ultrasonic waves diverge unevenly, thus affecting the cleaning of silicon wafers

Abstract

The invention provides a method for cleaning a silicon wafer. The method for cleaning the silicon wafer comprises the steps of roughly cleaning, soaking, cleaning and drying. The silicon wafer is cleaned through positive and negative rotation, so residual grinding sand and impurities attached to the silicon wafer can be removed effectively and the surface cleanliness of the silicon wafer is guaranteed. In addition, a large cleaning device and a great amount of cleaning solution are not required and a large amount of electric power and a large amount of time are not required, so the method has the advantages of effectively saving space, saving cost, saving energy, saving time and achieving a good cleaning effect. The method is low in cost, simple in operation and low in environmental pollution.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a silicon wafer cleaning method, which belongs to the technical field of silicon wafer processing. Background technique [0002] A silicon wafer is a silicon material that is cut into pieces by processing. Therefore, the silicon material to the usable silicon wafer has to go through multiple processes such as cutting and cleaning. With the development of society, silicon wafers are used more and more, and the processing of silicon wafers has also received more attention. [0003] Cleaning is one of the production processes of silicon wafers, and its cleaning quality has a great influence on the performance of silicon wafers. The traditional cleaning method adopts ultrasonic cleaning. In this cleaning method, silicon wafers are installed in a cleaning basket, deionized water is introduced, and then ultrasonic waves are used to clean silicon wafers. Usually, there are 6-8 processes for cleaning, and each process is 10-15 minut...
