Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of semiconductor silicon wafer cleaning, in particular to a device for cleaning semiconductor silicon wafers. Background Art
[0002] Silicon wafers, also known as silicon wafers, are an important material for making integrated circuits. Through photolithography, ion implantation, and other methods, silicon wafers can be made into integrated circuits and various semiconductor devices. Silicon wafers are sheet-like objects made of silicon. In the production of semiconductor devices, silicon wafers must be strictly cleaned. Even trace contamination can cause device failure. The purpose of cleaning is to remove surface contaminants, including organic and inorganic matter. These impurities may exist in atomic or ionic form, or in the form of thin films or particles on the surface of the silicon wafer, which can cause various defects. There are two methods to remove contamination: physical cleaning and chemical cleaning.
