[0002] The main application areas of silicon carbide wafers are LED solid lighting and high-frequency devices. This material has excellent properties such as bandgap, drift velocity, breakdown voltage, thermal conductivity, and high temperature resistance that are several times higher than traditional silicon. It has irreplaceable advantages in electronic applications such as high temperature, high pressure, high frequency, high power, optoelectronics, radiation resistance, microwave, and extreme environment applications such as aerospace, military industry, and nuclear energy. In the application of semiconductor devices, as the production cost of silicon carbide decreases, silicon carbide may replace silicon as a chip due to its excellent performance, breaking the bottleneck of silicon chips due to the performance of the material itself, which will bring revolutionary changes to the electronics industry. The main application areas of silicon carbide are LED solid lighting and high-frequency devices.

Dissolved silicon carbide is a type of silicon carbide. In the invention patent with the authorized announcement number CN117766440A and the invention name of a dissolved silicon carbide wafer cleaning device and method thereof, the buffer limiter is set.

However, in the above-mentioned prior art, the wafer is cleaned only by flushing, and the cleaning effect is poor. In addition, the contact area between the wafer box and the wafer is large, so there are many cleaning dead angles, which affects the cleaning effect of the wafer. Summary of the invention

Step 2: Clean the dissolved silicon carbide wafers. A certain volume of cleaning liquid is stored in the lower part of the inner cavity of the cleaning outer frame 1. Then, the cleaning liquid delivery device is connected to the central water storage tank 91. Then, the cleaning liquid is sprayed toward the cleaning net frame 2 by the spraying end 92. The dissolved silicon carbide wafers are cleaned by the cleaning liquid. Step 3: Change the height of the dissolved silicon carbide wafer, and use the height control component 7 to drive the cleaning frame 2 to move up and down, so as to adjust the height of the cleaning frame 2, so that the dissolved silicon carbide wafer can be cleaned by immersion and showering, and when the height control component 7 moves, the rotating component 8 can be rotated, thereby driving the cleaning frame 2 to rotate, so that the dissolved silicon carbide wafer can be rotated when the height is adjusted; Step 4, scrubbing the dissolved silicon carbide wafer. During cleaning, the power assembly 4 is used to drive the rotating toothed plate 51 to rotate, and the rotation of the ring gear 52 can respectively drive a single cleaning soft brush 55 to rotate. The cleaning soft brush 55 is used to scrub and clean the surface of the dissolved silicon carbide wafer. When the rotating toothed plate 51 rotates, the one-way threaded column 61 and the elastic fixing clip 63 can be driven to rotate, thereby driving the dissolved silicon carbide wafer to rotate, and the rotation direction is opposite to that of some cleaning soft brushes 55, which can improve the cleaning effect of the dissolved silicon carbide wafer.
