Problems solved by technology

[0002] With the continuous advancement of wafer manufacturing technology, the size of the patterned structure presented by the related nano-scale microstructure is gradually shrinking, especially the process node has been advanced from 28nm to below 4nm, so in the process of manufacturing , any residue of pollution will have an undue impact on the quality of the wafer. Generally, various cleaning, etching, wet methods and other processes are used to clean the surface of the wafer. However, in the cleaning process, the surface of the wafer is often Some water molecules left on the surface, etc., in the process of removing the water molecules, it is easy to cause the pattern drawing structure on the surface of the wafer to collapse due to tension problems, which greatly affects the cleaning of the wafer efficiency and production quality

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for removing moisture by using a supercritical fluid and a moisture removal cavity. The method for removing moisture by using the supercritical fluid comprises the following steps: step S10, the surface of a wafer is cleaned; S20, the surface of the wafer is covered with isopropyl alcohol; and S30, the surface of the wafer is covered with supercritical fluid, wherein in the step S30, a water layer, an isopropanol layer and a supercritical fluid layer are sequentially formed on the surface of the wafer from inside to outside. According to the application of the invention, the wet process and the drying process of the wafer are combined, so that static elimination is realized when the wafer is cleaned by the chemical liquid medicine and the ultrapure water in sequence, water is removed on the surface of the wafer through the isopropanol and the supercritical fluid carbon dioxide, and finally the water is taken away along with the isopropanol through the supercritical fluid. The protection of the patterned structure on the surface of the wafer is realized.
