    摘要: A dilution stage is adapted to supply a dilute chemistry to a semiconductor device processing apparatus. The dilution stage includes a first vessel adapted to store the chemistry after dilution and a second vessel adapted to store the chemistry prior to dilution. The dilution stage may also include a control mechanism which is adapted to selectively control flowing of the chemistry and a dilutant to the first vessel. The control mechanism may be operative to fill the second vessel with the chemistry, and to flow the dilutant to the first vessel via the second vessel.

    摘要: A pressurized delivery module having two chambers enables refill of the module while liquid material continues to be supplied to a semiconductor processing tool. Initially, the chambers are in fluid communication with each other through a valve assembly, with positive pressure applied to the module from an inert gas supply. When material in the module becomes depleted, the chambers are isolated from one another to permit refilling. In the refill module state, one chamber remains pressurized, with material remaining therein continued to be dispensed to the semiconductor fabrication tool. The second chamber is vented and placed into fluid communication with the bulk material supply. Once the level of material in the second chamber has been replenished and processing of the remaining wafer has been completed, during transfer of the next incoming wafer to the tool, the second chamber is sealed off from the material supply, repressurized, and placed back into fluid communication with the first chamber.

    摘要: In one aspect, an apparatus is provided. The apparatus comprises a chamber; a plurality of rollers adapted to support a wafer in a vertical orientation within a chamber; a pair of brushes adapted to scrub a first and a second side of the wafer respectively; a first spray bar adapted to spray a liquid on the wafer to form a meniscus on the wafer as the wafer is lifted out of the chamber; and a second spray bar adapted to direct a vapor to the meniscus, the vapor being adapted to lower a surface tension of the liquid at the meniscus to perform Marangoni drying of the wafer as the wafer is lifted out of the chamber. Numerous other aspects are provided.
