The working principle of the wafer support structure is as follows:

the gas is supplied into the wafer adsorption tube 20-1 by the gas supply device. Since the air flow for forming a pressure difference between the upper surface and the lower surface of the wafer 19 is ejected in the wafer adsorption tube 20-1, when the wafer 19 is placed on the wafer support structure, the wafer 19 floats/floats on the plurality of supports 20-6, and the wafer 19 does not contact the supports 20-6.

The motor 21-1 of the lifting and rotating mechanism can drive the whole cleaning mechanism 20 to rotate in the circumferential direction, and during the rotation of the cleaning mechanism 20, a rotating airflow is formed on the lower surface of the wafer 19, and the rotating circulation of the airflow can carry away part of pollutants on the lower surface of the wafer 19.

In order to enhance the stability of the vacuum environment formed by the airflow ejected from the wafer adsorption tube 20-1 on the lower surface of the wafer and enhance the capability of the airflow to entrain pollutants, a gas jet tube may be disposed in the hollow chamber of the motor 21-1, and the gas ejected from the gas jet tube will not damage the bernoulli principle. When the gas jet pipe is installed, the gas jet pipe penetrates through the hollow of the motor 21-1 and is communicated with the gap 20-16 between the buckling parts of the pipe upper shell 20-13 and the pipe lower shell 20-12, the gas flow jetted by the gas jet pipe can flow out from the gap between the upper end surface of the pipe lower shell 20-12 and the pipe lower shell 20-13 along the gap 20-16 and the buckling grooves 20-15, so that the stability of a vacuum environment and the capability of carrying particles by the gas flow are enhanced, the flow path of the gas flow jetted by the gas jet pipe is shown in fig. 20, and the gas jet pipe is not shown in fig. 20. In this embodiment, nitrogen gas is injected from the gas injection pipe.

An acid or alkaline cleaning solution can be conveyed into the cleaning solution conveying pipe 20-2 through a liquid supply system in the semiconductor wet process, and the cleaning solution is conveyed into the inclined nozzle 20-17 through the cleaning solution conveying pipe 20-2 and is sprayed out from a nozzle opening of the inclined nozzle 20-17. Because the whole cleaning mechanism 20 rotates in the circumferential direction, when the cleaning liquid is sprayed out from the inclined nozzles 20-17, a CDA jet flow is formed, the cleaning liquid can clean the residual pollutants on the lower surface of the wafer 19 under the action of centrifugal force, and the cleaning liquid mixed with the pollutants flows into the corresponding drainage cavities of the composite cavity structure of the single-wafer type single-wafer cleaning equipment and is discharged to the outside from the corresponding drainage pipes of the single-wafer type single-wafer cleaning equipment.

Meanwhile, after the cleaning operation is finished, the cleaning liquid remained on the lower surface of the wafer 19 can be blown off from the wafer by the air flow sprayed from the wafer adsorption tube 20-1.

The wafer supporting structure of the single wafer type single wafer cleaning apparatus according to this embodiment can thoroughly clean the contaminants on the lower surface of the wafer 19 by suspending the wafer 19 above the apparatus using the bernoulli principle, and particularly can clean the dead zone of the wafer 19.

By arranging the wafer adsorption pipe 20-1 and the cleaning liquid conveying pipe 20-2 in the pipe shell, partial pollutants on the lower surface of the wafer 19 can be carried away by the airflow which is sprayed by the wafer adsorption pipe 20-1 and can suspend the wafer 19, and the cleaning liquid which is conveyed to the inclined nozzle 20-17 by the cleaning liquid conveying pipe 20-2 can thoroughly clean the lower surface of the wafer 19, so that the cleaning effect is improved, the cleaning efficiency is improved, the consumption of the cleaning liquid can be reduced, and the production cost of enterprises can be reduced.

The existing single-wafer cleaning equipment is only provided with the spray pipe 23 which sprays cleaning liquid from top to bottom, the traditional design can only clean the upper surface of the wafer 19, in addition, the cleaned particle pollutants are easy to accumulate at the periphery of the wafer 19 under the action of centrifugal force during cleaning, and the particle pollutants accumulated at the periphery of the wafer 19 can be adhered to the back surface of the wafer 19 under the influence of a flow field at the bottom of the wafer 19. This application can carry out abluent wafer bearing structure to the wafer lower surface through the installation on single wafer cleaning equipment, can effectively solve this problem, in the single cleaning operation in-process, the single wafer cleaning equipment who installs this application device can not only wash the surface and the back of wafer 19 simultaneously, can not cause the problem that particle pollutant piles up in wafer 19 periphery yet, single wafer cleaning equipment's clean ability has been improved greatly, cleaning efficiency and cleaning performance have been improved, the wafer quality has been guaranteed effectively.

The working process of the single wafer type single wafer cleaning equipment of the invention is as follows:

firstly, air is supplied into the wafer adsorption tube 20-1 of the wafer support structure through an air supply device.

The wafer 19 is placed on the wafer support structure by the wafer chuck device, and the wafer 19 floats/floats on the support base 20-6 because the air flow for forming a pressure difference between the upper surface and the lower surface of the wafer 19 is ejected from the wafer chuck tube 20-1, and the wafer 19 does not contact the support base 20-6.

And secondly, adjusting the size of each layer of drainage cavity in the composite cavity structure by using the jacking element according to the current working mode, so that the wafer corresponds to a certain working cavity (the working cavity refers to one layer of drainage cavity). Taking the example of cleaning the wafer with the alkaline chemical cleaning solution, the jacking element should drive the first isolation assembly to move downward to maximize the chamber of the second layer of drainage cavity 10, and if the wafer 19 is not flush with the upper edge of the third isolation cover 5-2 or is not slightly higher than the upper edge of the third isolation cover 5-2, the height of the wafer is slightly adjusted by the lifting mechanism of the jacking rotation mechanism.

And thirdly, the motor 21-1 of the jacking rotating mechanism drives the whole cleaning mechanism 20 to rotate in the circumferential direction, and in the rotating process of the cleaning mechanism 20, the lower surface of the wafer 19 forms rotating airflow, and the airflow rotating circulation can carry away part of pollutants on the lower surface of the wafer 1.

Meanwhile, nitrogen can be introduced into a gap 20-16 between the buckling parts of the upper pipe shell 20-13 and the lower pipe shell 20-12 through the gas jet pipe, and flows out from the gap between the upper end face of the lower pipe shell 20-12 and the lower pipe shell 20-13, so that the stability of a vacuum environment formed by the airflow jetted from the wafer adsorption pipe 20-1 on the lower surface of the wafer and the capability of the airflow carrying particle pollutants can be enhanced. The nitrogen sprayed by the gas jet pipe and the gas sprayed by the wafer adsorption pipe 20-1 can enter the current working drainage cavity, namely the second layer of drainage cavity 10.

And fourthly, spraying alkaline chemical cleaning solution to the upper surface of the wafer from top to bottom by using a spray pipe, wherein the alkaline chemical cleaning solution is diffused from the periphery of the wafer 19 and flows into the second-layer drainage cavity 10. Specifically, according to the current working mode, the spray pipes in the A area, the B area, the C area or the D area can be used for spraying cleaning liquid, or a plurality of spray pipes can be used for alternately spraying. Under different working modes, the spraying operation modes of the plurality of spraying pipes are different, and detailed description is omitted here.

Meanwhile, alkaline chemical cleaning liquid is conveyed into the cleaning liquid conveying pipe 20-2 through a liquid supply system in the semiconductor wet process, and the cleaning liquid is conveyed into the inclined nozzle 2-17 through the cleaning liquid conveying pipe 20-2 and is sprayed out from a nozzle opening of the inclined nozzle 20-17. Since the whole cleaning mechanism 20 rotates in the circumferential direction, when the cleaning liquid is sprayed from the inclined nozzles 20-17, a CDA jet is formed, and under the action of centrifugal force, the cleaning liquid can clean the residual contaminants on the lower surface of the wafer 19, and the cleaning liquid with the contaminants flows into the second-layer drainage chamber 10.

The alkaline chemical cleaning solution entering the second layer of drainage cavity 10 flows into the third drainage channel 1-1 of the cavity shell through the second layer of drainage cavity 10 and the first drainage holes 2-5 of the support ring, and is finally discharged to the outside of the equipment through the second liquid discharge pipe 1-2.

Fifthly, after the cleaning is finished, the spraying of the liquid is stopped by the spray pipes and the inclined nozzles 2-17 of the cleaning liquid conveying pipe 20-2.

The air flow jetted from the wafer suction pipe 2-1 can blow the residual cleaning solution on the lower surface of the wafer 19 away from the wafer.

The residual cleaning solution separated from the wafer can also flow into the third drainage channel 1-1 of the cavity shell from the second layer of drainage cavity 10 and the first drainage hole 2-5 of the support ring, and finally is discharged to the outside of the equipment through the second liquid discharge pipe 1-2.

And sixthly, when no residual cleaning solution is left on the wafer, stopping the rotation of the jacking rotating mechanism, and transferring the wafer to the next procedure through the wafer clamping device, so that the cleaning of one wafer is finished.
