Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of semiconductor wafer flipping type cleaning, in particular to a semiconductor wafer flipping type cleaning device. Background Art
[0002] The semiconductor wafer flip cleaning device is a necessary operation for the wafer before leaving the factory. It cleans the dust on the surface of the wafer to ensure that the surface of the wafer is bright and clean, which is convenient for later lamination or installation. Traditional cleaning devices can only clean one side of the wafer. If two or more sides need to be cleaned, manual intervention or semi-automatic flipping is required, which has low cleaning efficiency and prolonged working time.
[0003] The existing semiconductor wafer flip-type cleaning device has low cleaning efficiency and can often only clean one side. For example, the semiconductor wafer cleaning device disclosed in publication number CN203862609U includes an overflow cleaning tank, the overflow cleaning tank has a water inlet and a water outlet, and also includes a hollow panel located in the overflow cleaning tank, the hollow panel has a first air inlet and a plurality of evenly distributed air outlets, and a gas pipeline connected to the first air inlet and passing gas into the first air inlet. The gas introduced into the hollow panel is discharged into the pure water in the overflow cleaning tank through multiple evenly distributed air outlets of the hollow panel, so that the wafer is fully stirred during overflow cleaning, and the impurities on the wafer can be dissolved in the pure water as quickly as possible and flow away with the pure water, thereby shortening the cleaning time and saving the amount of pure water. At the same time, nitrogen is introduced into the pure water, so that a nitrogen protective film is formed on the surface of the pure water, which plays a role of nitrogen sealing, quickly improves the water resistance of the pure water, further shortens the cleaning time, and saves the amount of pure water. However, the wafer can only be cleaned on one side and cannot be turned over multiple times. The all-round cleaning of multiple sides has a poor cleaning effect.
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to invent a semiconductor wafer flip cleaning device to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

A nozzle 11 is provided on the inner wall of the feeding tray 3. The nozzle 11 is connected to the base 8 through an infusion tube 9 and a fixing frame 10. The inner wall of the inner ring of the feeding tray 3 contacts the side of the lifting member 12. The lifting member 12 is disc-shaped and has openings evenly arranged. The distances between the openings are equal, and the top of the lifting member 12 can contact the protruding part of the wafer body transported in the feeding tray 3.
[0025] Batches of wafers are conveyed to the inner diameter of the feeding tray 3, flipped during the continuous lifting process of the lifting member 12, and cleaned by the cleaning liquid sprayed by multiple nozzles 11. The whole process is intelligent, no human intervention is required, and the cleaning area is large, the cleaning efficiency is high, and the effect is good.
