AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In existing CMP equipment, the rollers suffer from reduced friction due to wear of the gaskets, resulting in insufficient wafer rotation, which affects the cleaning effect and reduces product yield.

Method used

Design a wafer cleaning device, including a cleaning brush, a wafer driving assembly, and an opening/closing state control assembly. By controlling the opening/closing state of the wafer driving assembly, the friction between the wafer and the roller is ensured, thereby achieving effective wafer rotation and cleaning in conjunction with the cleaning brush.

Benefits of technology

This improved the cleaning effect on wafers, increased product yield, and ensured the consistency and integrity of the cleaning results.
