Abstract:
A spot heater and a device for cleaning a wafer using the same are provided. The wafer cleaning device includes a heater chuck on which a wafer is mounted, the heater chuck configured to heat a bottom surface of the wafer; a chemical liquid nozzle configured to spray a chemical liquid on a top surface of the wafer for etching; and a spot heater configured to heat a spot of the top surface of the wafer.
Abstract:
A source supplier includes a source reservoir that contains a liquefied source fluid for a supercritical process, a vaporizer that vaporizes the liquefied source fluid into a gaseous source fluid under high pressure, a purifier that removes organic impurities and moistures from the gaseous source fluid and an analyzer connected to the purifier that analyzes an impurity fraction and a moisture fraction in the gaseous source fluid. Moisture and organic impurities are removed from the source fluid to reduce the moisture concentration of the supercritical fluid in the supercritical process.
Abstract:
Disclosed are an apparatus for treating a substrate and a method of treating substrates. The apparatus includes an inlet valve through which a supercritical fluid flows into the process chamber until an inner pressure of the process chamber reaches a first pressure and a turbulent flow generator turbulently supplementing the supercritical fluid into the process chamber until the inner pressure of the process chamber is recovered to the first pressure. A pressure drop module partially removes a supercritical mixture from the process chamber until the inner pressure of the process chamber is dropped to the second pressure. A pressure drop mode and a supplemental mode may be alternately repeated by the flow controller.
Abstract:
A substrate processing apparatus includes a vessel providing a processing space for processing a substrate, a substrate support supporting the substrate loaded in the processing space, and a barrier between a side wall of the vessel and the substrate support and surrounding an edge of the substrate supported by the substrate support.

Abstract:
A method of processing substrates, comprising: loading a substrate into a process chamber; supplying a supercritical fluid, that is a process fluid under the supercritical state, into the process chamber, chemicals separated from the substrate and the supercritical fluid being mixed into a supercritical mixture in the process chamber; and gradually decreasing a chemical concentration of the supercritical mixture by alternately repeating a pressure drop mode and a supplemental mode such that the supercritical mixture partially flows out from the process chamber at the pressure drop mode when an inner pressure of the process chamber reaches a first pressure and the supercritical fluid turbulently flows into the process chamber at the supplemental mode when the inner pressure of the process chamber reaches a second pressure that is smaller than the first pressure and over a supercritical pressure of the process fluid.

Abstract:
A cleaning solution composition includes an organic solvent in which a metal fluoride does not dissolve, at least one fluoride compound that generates bifluoride (HF2−), and deionized water, wherein the deionized water may be included in a concentration of 1.5 wt % or lower based on the total weight of the cleaning solution composition.
