Abstract:
A cooling device for interface card for cooling a heating component on an interface card includes a heat sink and a water cooling head, wherein the heat sink has a heat conducting seat and a plurality of cooling fins. A cooling flow path is formed between any two adjacent cooling fins. In addition, the water block is attached onto the plural cooling fins of the heat sink. Thereby, the operational heat, generated from the heating element, is firstly absorbed by the heat-conducting seat and is then distributed uniformly cross to the plural fins. In addition to the heat dissipation proceeded between the fins and the ambient air, the operational heat is further conducted to the water block, undergoing a heat exchange with the coolant flowing in the water block, and thus a desired cooling effectiveness is achieved.
Abstract:
An apparatus and a method for cleaning wafers by a wet bench technique without incurring ammonia vapor damages to the wafer surface are provided. The apparatus of a wet cleaning tank consists of a tank body for holding a quantity of a cleaning solution therein; a conduit mounted through and vertical to a bottom wall of the tank body for feeding an ammonia-containing solution into the tank body through an outlet; and a cup-shaped container mounted in an upside-down position over the outlet of the conduit for blocking ammonia vapor generated by the ammonia-containing solution from reaching an upper cavity of the tank body. The method for cleaning wafers may be practiced by first positioning a conduit vertically through and with an outside wall of the conduit sealingly engaging a bottom wall of a liquid tank with an outlet end of the conduit immersed in a cleaning solution in the tank; then mounting a cup-shaped container in an upside-down position over the outlet end of the conduit to collect any ammonia vapors exiting the conduit and preventing the vapor from reaching an upper portion of the tank cavity.
Abstract:
A method for drying wafers after a wet bench process is disclosed. In the method, a wafer is first immersed in a volume of DI water held in a container. A mixture of alcohol vapor/inert gas is then flown into the upper portion of the container that is not filled with the volume of DI water at a flow rate of less than 20 l/min. The wafer is then withdrawn from the DI water into the upper portion of the container filled with the alcohol vapor/inert gas mixture and thereby driving DI water molecules off the surface of the wafer without leaving organic residue on the wafer surface.
