    摘要: Silicon wafers and the like are cleaned using new scrubber-type apparatus in which measures are taken to compensate for differential cleaning of the central region of the wafer by: using rotary brushes having one or more non-contact portions arranged in the section thereof that faces the central region of the substrate, or toggling the relative position of the wafer and the rotary brushes, or directing cleaning fluid(s) preferentially towards the central region of the wafer. Another aspect of the invention provides scrubber-type cleaning apparatus in which the rotary brushes are replaced by rollers (110). A web of cleaning material (116) is interposed between each roller and the substrate. Various different webs of cleaning material may be used, e.g. a length of tissue, a continuous loop of cleaning material whose surface is reconditioned on each cleaning pass, adhesive material provided on a carrier tape, etc.

    摘要: A method for processing semiconductor wafers is disclosed. A solution is applied to a semiconductor wafer to prevent dendrites and electrolytic reactions at the surface of metal interconnects. The solution can be applied during a CMP process or during a post CMP cleaning process. The solution may include a surfactant and a corrosion inhibitor. In one embodiment, the concentration of the surfactant in the solution is less than approximately one percent by weight and the concentration of the corrosion inhibitor in the solution is less than approximately one percent by weight. The solution may also include a solvent and a cosolvent. In an alternate embodiment, the solution includes a solvent and a cosolvent without the surfactant and corrosion inhibitor. In one embodiment, the CMP process and post CMP cleaning process can be performed in the presence of light having a wavelength of less than approximately one micron.

    摘要: A method for processing semiconductor wafers is disclosed. A semiconductor wafer is provided to a semiconductor processing stage where a block copolymer surfactant (BCS) is applied to the wafer surface. In one embodiment, the BCS includes a hydrophobic portion and a hydrophilic portion. Alternatively, the BCS may be a silicone-containing BCS. In one embodiment, the BCS is within an aqueous solution where the concentration of the BCS within the aqueous solution is less than one percent by weight. Also disclosed is an aqueous solution including abrasive particles and a BCS having a hydrophobic portion and a hydrophilic portion. The abrasive particles may include silica, alumina, or ceria.
