摘要:
After semiconductor wafers W have been processed with ozone gas and steam fed into a processing vessel 10, air is fed into the processing vessel 10 from an air supply source connected to an ozone gas supply pipe 42 for feeding ozone gas into the processing vessel 10, whereby an atmosphere of the ozone gas in the processing vessel 10 is replaced with an atmosphere of the air.

Resists can be removed while metal contamination of wafers, etc. and generation of particles, and growth of oxide films are suppressed. A substrate processing method comprises feeding a processing gas, such as ozone gas, into a processing vessel to pressurize an atmosphere surrounding a substrate. A solvent gas, such as steam, is fed into the processing vessel while the processing gas is fed into the processing vessel, whereby a resist of the substrate can be removed with the solvent gas and the processing gas while metal corrosion, etc. can be prevented.

Resists can be removed while metal contamination of wafers, etc. and generation of particles, and growth of oxide films are suppressed. An ozone gas feed system 40 for feeding ozone gas 2 into a processing vessel 10 holding wafers W, and a steam feed means 30 for feeding steam 1 into the processing vessel 10 are provided. An on-off valve 49 inserted in the ozone gas feed pipe 42, an on-off valve 36 inserted in the steam feed pipe 34 and a switch 48 and an on-off valve 49 of ozone gas generator 41 are connected to CPU 100 which is control means and are controlled by the CPU 100. Ozone gas 2 is fed into the processing vessel 10 to pressurize the atmosphere surrounding the wafers W, and then steam 1 is fed into the processing vessel 10 while ozone gas 2 is fed into the processing vessel 10, whereby a resist of the wafers W can be removed with the steam 1 and the ozone 2 while metal corrosion, etc. can be prevented.

摘要:
Semiconductor wafers are cleaned by placing the semiconductor wafers in a processing vessel, forming a pure water film on the surfaces of the wafers, forming an ozonic water film by dissolving ozone gas in the pure water film, and removing resist films formed on the wafers by the agency of the ozonic water film. The pure water film is formed by condensing steam on the surfaces of the wafers. The resist films formed on the surfaces of the wafers can be removed by also using hydroxyl radicals produced by interaction between steam and ozone gas supplied into the processing vessel. Thus, the resist films can be removed highly effectively.

摘要:
A substrate processing method which removes an ArF resist film from a wafer having the ArF resist film. As an ultraviolet irradiation process is performed on the ArF resist film, and then an ozone gas and water vapor are fed to the ArF resist film, the ArF resist film is altered in a water-soluble state. Thereafter, the ArF resist film is removed from the substrate by feeding pure water to the ArF resist film altered into the water-soluble state.

A substrate processing apparatus and method which can prevent accidents in advance so as to ensure safety against interruption of operations of the apparatus and leakage of processing substances. In a substrate processing method in which wafers W are processed are processed by feeding an ozone gas 5 to the wafers W loaded in a processing vessel 2 while an interior atmosphere in the processing vessel is being exhausted to be passed through an ozone killer 10, the ozone gas 5 is fed under the conditions that the processing vessel 2 is tightly closed, and the ozone killer in its normal state. When the processing is interrupted, an interior atmosphere in the processing vessel 2 is forcedly exhausted. When the gas leaks, the interior atmosphere and a peripheral atmosphere of the processing vessel 2 are forcedly exhausted while the feed of the ozone gas 5 is paused. The processing gas is fed under a condition that the processing vessel is tightly closed, and the post-treatment of the exhausted interior atmosphere is normally carried out.
