Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of ion cleaning machines, in particular to a wafer carrier tray used for ion cleaning machines. Background Art

[0002] Wafer cleaning is very important as the foundation of the semiconductor industry. The cleaning effect directly affects the final performance, efficiency and stability of electronic products. Cleaning wafers not only removes impurities on the surface of the wafer, but also passivates the surface of the wafer, thereby reducing the adsorption capacity of the wafer surface. High-specification wafers have very strict requirements on the cleanliness of the surface. In theory, no particles, metal ions, organic adhesion, water vapor, or oxide layer are allowed to exist, and the wafer surface is required to have atomic-level flatness.

[0003] A plasma cleaning machine uses high-energy plasma to bombard the surface of an object to be cleaned to achieve cleaning of the object surface. The object to be cleaned is generally placed on a tray, and the tray is then placed in a sealed plasma cleaning machine. The tray in the prior art is generally a flat plate on which multiple objects to be cleaned are placed. When the objects to be cleaned are being cleaned, the objects to be cleaned are prone to move along the plane of the flat plate. The movement of the objects to be cleaned may cause multiple objects to be cleaned to overlap and block each other, thereby affecting the final cleaning effect. In addition, when the objects to be cleaned move and contact the electrode plate in the plasma cleaning machine, it is easy to cause the plasma cleaning machine to malfunction.

[0004] In this regard, a wafer carrier tray for an ion cleaning machine is proposed to solve the above problems. Summary of the invention
