    摘要: Embodiments of the invention provide methods of applying a liquid to a backside of a substrate to bring the substrate to the temperature of the liquid. By controlling the temperature of the substrate the temperature of the semiconductor processing liquid may be maintained at a particular temperature or a type of reaction occurring in the semiconductor processing liquid may be enhanced or maintained, such as in reactions where relatively small amounts of liquid are used or expensive chemicals are used.

    摘要: A combination of a dry oxidizing, wet etching, and wet cleaning processes are used to remove particle defects from a wafer after ion implantation, as part of a wafer bonding process to fabricate a SOI wafer. The particle defects on the topside and the backside of the wafer are oxidized, in a dry strip chamber, with an energized gas. In a wet clean chamber, the backside of the wafer is treated with an etchant solution to remove completely or partially a thermal silicon oxide layer, followed by exposure of the topside and the backside to a cleaning solution. The cleaning solution contains ammonium hydroxide, hydrogen peroxide, DI water, and optionally a chelating agent, and a surfactant. The wet clean chamber is integrated with the dry strip chamber and contained in a single wafer processing system.

    摘要: The invention is carried out in a plasma reactor for processing a semiconductor wafer, the plasma reactor having a chamber for containing a processing gas and having a conductor connected to an RF power source for coupling RF power into the reactor chamber to generate from the processing gas a plasma inside the chamber, the chamber containing at least one surface exposed toward the plasma and susceptible to contamination by particles produced during processing of the wafer, the invention being carried out by promoting, during processing of the wafer, bombarding of particles from the plasma onto the one surface to remove therefrom contaminants deposited during processing of the wafer. Such promoting of bombarding is carried out by providing an RF power supply and coupling, during processing of the wafer, RF power from the supply to the one surface. The coupling may be performed by a capacitive cleaning electrode adjacent the one surface, the capacitive cleaning electrode connected to the RF power supply. The capacitive cleaning electrode preferably is disposed on a side of the one surface opposite the plasma so as to be protected from contact with the plasma. Alternatively, the coupling may be carried out by a direct electrical connection from the RF power supply to the one surface.
