The quality of wafer cleaning has a serious impact on device performance. In the current integrated circuit production, due to the contamination problem on the surface of the wafer, more than 50% of the material is lost and 80% of the chips fail electrically. Since wafer cleaning is the most important and frequent process in the semiconductor manufacturing process, and as the size decreases and the structure becomes more complicated, the chip's sensitivity to impurity content also increases accordingly, which will directly affect the device's yield, performance and reliability.

[0017] A cleaning method for an automated wafer cleaning fluid delivery cleaning device comprises the following steps;
[0018] S1. First, pure water and Diamaflow cutting fluid are mixed evenly in equal proportions to prepare a cleaning fluid;
[0019] S2. Next, the cleaning liquid is injected into the cleaning liquid tank, and then the placement frame loaded with the wafers is placed on the slide and transported to the cleaning station via the guide rail;
[0020] S3. Further, the water pump and the hydraulic cylinder are started. The hydraulic cylinder drives the wafers in the placement frame to move upward and present a large spacing distribution under the action of the guide assembly, and the water pump pumps the cleaning liquid from the cleaning liquid tank and sprays it through the nozzle to achieve the cleaning of the wafers. During the cleaning process, the wafer assembly and the drive assembly work together to achieve the compound movement of the wafer, thereby improving the cleaning quality of the wafer;
[0021] S4. Finally, the hydraulic cylinder is started to reset, and the wafer in the unfolded state is stored back into the placement frame and unloaded through the guide rail.
[0022] In summary, the present invention mainly has the following beneficial effects:
[0023] 1. The present invention sets a guide component, a cleaning liquid component and a cleaning component. First, pure water and Diamaflow cutting fluid are uniformly mixed in equal proportions to form a cleaning liquid and injected into the cleaning liquid tank through a liquid replenishing port. Subsequently, a placement frame loaded with wafers is placed on a slide and transported to a cleaning station through a guide rail. Further, a water pump and a hydraulic cylinder are started. The hydraulic cylinder drives the carrier plate in the placement frame to move upward, and the carrier plate then drives the wafer to move upward. When the guide rod installed inside the vertical plate moves out of the placement frame, the guide rod pops out and moves to the guide groove in the guide plate under the action of a spring. As the carrier plate continues to move, the guide rod drives the bottom plate to move outward under the action of the guide groove. When the carrier plate stops moving, a large spacing distribution is formed between multiple bottom plates, thereby realizing a large spacing distribution between wafers. At the same time, the water pump draws cleaning liquid from the cleaning liquid tank into a water supply pipe, and the nozzle draws cleaning liquid from the water supply pipe through a connecting pipe and sprays it onto the outer wall of the wafer, thereby realizing single-wafer cleaning of the wafer and significantly improving the cleaning quality of the wafer.
[0024] 2. The present invention provides a driving assembly and a wafer assembly. In the process of the cleaning liquid flowing from the cleaning liquid tank to the water supply pipe, the cleaning liquid will pass through the driving assembly and drive the driving assembly to operate. Specifically, the cleaning liquid will flow into the power box through the water delivery pipe and the water inlet of the water pump, and be discharged from the water outlet of the power box. In this process, the cleaning liquid will drive the blades to rotate. After the blades rotate, they will drive the rotating shaft to rotate. The rotation of the rotating shaft will drive both the first driving shaft and the second driving shaft to rotate. After the first driving shaft rotates, it will drive the stirring shaft to rotate, so that the stirring shaft drives the stirring blades to rotate. After the stirring blades rotate, the cleaning liquid can be stirred and mixed, thereby preventing the problem of stratification of the cleaning liquid and causing deterioration of the wafer cleaning quality. After the second driving shaft rotates, it will drive the first driving gear to rotate. After the first driving gear rotates, it will drive the connecting shaft to rotate through the transmission action. The second driven gear drives the transmission shaft to rotate, and the driven shaft then drives the second driving gear to rotate. The second driving gear drives the third driven gear to rotate through meshing. At this time, under the action of the second driving gear and the third driven gear, both the first driving wheel and the second driving wheel rotate, thereby driving the wafer. Therefore, the wafer rotates slowly in the base, and the wafer rotates under the action of the connecting shaft, forming a resetting motion of the wafer, which is beneficial for the cleaning liquid to clean the wafer in all directions, and can also effectively prevent the base from having a cleaning blind spot due to clamping the wafer.

[0045] See also Figure 2-3 A guide assembly 6 is also provided on one side of the wafer assembly 5 to guide the wafer assembly 5;
[0046] Specifically, the guide assembly 6 includes a supporting plate 601 which is slidably connected to the inner wall of the placement frame 105, and a guide plate 602 which is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the box body 101 is arranged on the outer side of the supporting plate 601, a guide groove 604 is opened on the end face of the guide plate 602, and a guide rod 603 which extends to the inside of the vertical plate 502 is slidably connected in the inner wall of the guide groove 604, and the guide rod 603 is slidably reset connected to the inner wall of the vertical plate 502 through a slide groove and a spring, and a multi-stage telescopic rod 605 is connected between every two groups of bottom plates 501.
[0047] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: first, pure water and Diamaflow cutting fluid are uniformly mixed in equal proportions to form a cleaning fluid and injected into the cleaning fluid tank 201 through the fluid replenishing port 202, then, the placement frame 105 loaded with the wafer 504 is placed on the slide 104 and transported to the cleaning station through the guide rail 103;
[0048] Further, the water pump 203 and the hydraulic cylinder 106 are started, and the hydraulic cylinder 106 drives the carrier plate 601 in the placement frame 105 to move upward, and the carrier plate 601 then drives the wafer 504 to move upward. When the guide rod 603 installed inside the vertical plate 502 moves out of the placement frame 105, the guide rod 603 pops out and moves to the guide groove 604 in the guide plate 602 under the action of the spring. As the carrier plate 601 continues to move, the guide rod 603 drives the bottom plate 501 to move outward under the action of the guide groove 604. When the carrier plate 601 stops moving, a large spacing distribution is formed between the multiple bottom plates 501, thereby achieving a large spacing distribution between the wafers 504.
[0049] At the same time, the water pump 203 draws the cleaning liquid from the cleaning liquid tank 201 into the water supply pipe 401, and the nozzle 403 draws the cleaning liquid from the water supply pipe 401 through the water outlet pipe 402 and sprays it onto the outer wall of the wafer 504, thereby achieving single-chip cleaning of the wafer 504 and significantly improving the cleaning quality of the wafer 504;
[0050] Furthermore, in the process of the cleaning liquid flowing from the cleaning liquid tank 201 to the water supply pipe 401, the cleaning liquid will pass through the driving assembly 3 and drive the driving assembly 3 to operate. Specifically, the cleaning liquid will flow into the power box 301 through the water delivery pipe 205 and the water inlet 302 of the water pump 203, and will be discharged from the water outlet 303 of the power box 301. In this process, the cleaning liquid will drive the blades 305 to rotate, and the rotation of the blades 305 will drive the rotating shaft 304 to rotate. The rotation of the rotating shaft 304 will drive the first driving shaft 306 and the second driving shaft 307 to rotate.
[0051] The first driving shaft 306 rotates to drive the stirring shaft 206 to rotate, so that the stirring shaft 206 drives the stirring blade 207 to rotate. The stirring blade 207 rotates to stir and mix the cleaning liquid, thereby preventing the cleaning liquid from being stratified and causing the cleaning quality of the wafer 504 to deteriorate.
[0052] The second driving shaft 307 rotates and drives the first driving gear 308 to rotate. The first driving gear 308 rotates and drives the first driven gear 506 to rotate through meshing. The first driven gear 506 drives the connecting shaft 505 to rotate through transmission. Therefore, the base 503 drives the wafer 504 to rotate and clean under the action of the connecting shaft 505.
[0053] Furthermore, during the rotation of the base 503, the second driven gear 508 on its outer side will contact the driving gear plate 507 during the rotation, so the driving gear plate 507 will drive the second driven gear 508 to rotate, and after the second driven gear 508 rotates, it will drive the transmission shaft 509 to rotate, and the transmission shaft 509 will then drive the second driving gear 510 to rotate, and the second driving gear 510 will drive the third driven gear 511 to rotate through the meshing action. At this time, under the action of the second driving gear 510 and the third driven gear 511, the first driving wheel 512 and the second driving wheel 513 will both rotate, thereby realizing the driving of the wafer 504. Therefore, the wafer 504 rotates slowly in the base 503, and the rotation of the wafer 504 under the action of the connecting shaft 505 is combined to form a compound movement of the wafer 504, which is beneficial for the cleaning liquid to clean the wafer 504 in all directions, and can also effectively prevent the base 503 from having a cleaning blind spot due to clamping the wafer 504.

The specific features, structures, materials or characteristics described may be combined in a suitable manner in any one or more embodiments or examples. After reading this specification, those skilled in the art may make modifications, substitutions and variations to the embodiments without creative contributions as needed without departing from the principles and purpose of the present invention.
