    摘要: A wafer guide includes a horizontal support panel and at least three vertical panels attached on one surface of the support panel. Each of the vertical panels has a vertical body panel and a plurality of protrusions upwardly extended from a top surface of the vertical body panel. Gap regions between the protrusions act as slots for holding wafers. Sidewalls of the slots have a convex shaped profile when viewed from a top view, and bottom surfaces of the slots also have a convex shaped profile when viewed from a cross sectional view that crosses the vertical panels.

    摘要: A wafer guide used in cleaning and/or drying processes of semiconductor wafers is provided. The wafer guide includes a horizontal support panel and at least three vertical panels attached on one surface of the support panel. Each of the vertical panels has a vertical body panel and a plurality of protrusions upwardly extended from a top surface of the vertical body panel. Gap regions between the protrusions act as slots for holding wafers. Sidewalls of the slots have a convex shaped profile when viewed from a top view, and bottom surfaces of the slots also have a convex shaped profile when viewed from a cross sectional view that crosses the vertical panels. Accordingly, contact areas between the wafers and the wafer guide are reduced to improve a drying efficiency of the wafers.

    摘要: An apparatus includes a chamber for containing a fluid, a guide seated in the chamber, and a transfer robot for loading and/or unloading a plurality of wafers to and/or from the guide. The wafers are located on the guide. The guide has a supporting member for supporting a wafer and a stopper member for preventing the wafer from being inclined over a predetermined range. The stopper member is in contact with a wafer edge disposed at a higher position than a wafer edge supported by the supporting member. A wafer guide has a stopper member to prevent adjacent wafers from being inclined and coming in contact with each other. Therefore, it is possible to suppress a poor drying such as water spots (or watermarks) produced when wafers are adhered to each other in a drying process.

    摘要: An apparatus for drying a substrate using an isopropyl alcohol vapor includes a container for receiving an isopropyl alcohol vapor to dry a plurality of substrates wherein an opening is vertically formed through an upper portion of the container to permit the loading and unloading of the substrates; a supporting member for supporting the plurality of substrates in the container in a vertical direction and for supporting the substrates side by side in a horizontal direction, wherein the supporting member extends through the container and through the opening; and a cover for obstructing a flow of clean air from flowing directly from an air cleaner disposed over the container into the container through the opening. In addition, the apparatus may include an inert gas supplying member to supply an inert gas onto the substrates to prevent native oxide films from forming on the substrates.

    摘要: An apparatus for cleaning semiconductor substrates includes a chamber having a cleaning room and a drying room disposed over the cleaning room. The cleaning room and the drying room are separated or placed in communication with one another by a separation plate. An exhaust path is formed at a central portion of the separation plate. As de-ionized water (DI water) filling the cleaning room is drained during a dry process, the inside of the drying room is decompressed, and a drying fluid in the drying room flows from the drying room to the cleaning room along the exhaust path.
