    摘要: Apparatuses are provided for cleaning a processing component using megasonic energy including megasonic tanks, scanning megasonic plates, megasonic jets, and megasonic sweeping beams etc., in combination with selective chemistries to remove sub-micron particulate contaminants from the surfaces of the processing component that is used in cleaning semiconductor, medical, or any other processing substrates. The apparatus includes a processing chamber having a carrier element that is configured to support the processing component. The carrier element includes a mechanism to flip the processing component within the processing chamber during cleaning. A fluid supply assembly supplies a fluid to a surface of the processing component and a beam assembly equipped with a megasonic transducer is used to provide high frequency megasonic acoustic energy to the fluid during cleaning.

    摘要: Provided is a method for cleaning hydrophobic surfaces, such as low K dielectric organic or inorganic surfaces as well as metallization surfaces of a semiconductor wafer. The method includes: (a) applying a surfactant solution to the surface; (b) scrubbing the surface; and (c) spin-rinsing the surface of the substrate using de-ionized water to complete a removal of any contaminants from the surface. If needed, the surfactant solution can be mixed with a chemical enhancer, and the scrubbing can be performed in a brush system. The brush system may be configured to apply DI water using a through the brush (TTB) technique. The surfactant solution can be applied either using a drip technique or using the TTB technique.
