Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for wet cleaning disk-shaped substrates, in particular semiconductor wafers.
  • This device has the disadvantage that the wafers have to be collected into one batch each before their fine cleaning, as a result of which the continuous processing process of the wafers and thus the throughput are impaired.
  • the integration of the cleaning device in a CMP system which usually works in the single wafer process, is difficult.
  • the present invention is therefore based on the object of providing a device of the type mentioned at the outset which enables continuous cleaning of individual wafers in a simple and inexpensive manner.
  • this object is achieved by a device for wet cleaning of disk-shaped substrates, in particular semiconductor wafers, in that the device has at least one treatment container which can be filled with treatment fluid and has a guide for guiding at least one substrate in the container, a lifting device in the treatment container for inserting and removing a substrate, and a receiving device arranged above the treatment container with at least two separate advise guide means for respectively receiving a substrate on ⁇ has, wherein the guide means are slidable such that they are aligned with the guide in the treatment tank.
  • the receiving device arranged above the container has at least two separate guide devices for the respective receiving of a substrate, as a result of which one of the guide devices can be used in each case for guiding the substrates before wet cleaning and the other guide device in each case for guiding the substrates after wet cleaning. This ensures that the substrates are each inserted in a clean guide after wet cleaning.
  • the two separate guides increase the throughput of the device, since the rail for receiving the uncleaned wafers can be reloaded during the wet cleaning of a previous wafer in the treatment container, so that after the treated wafer has been lifted out of the treatment container and the guide devices have been displaced sideways a new wafer to be treated can be loaded into the treatment container immediately.
  • the wafer that has just been treated can be removed from the one guide device.

  • the chamber preferably has a low height of two to ten millimeters, which results in a very small chamber volume into which the drying gas is introduced. Due to the small chamber volume, the consumption of the drying gas can be greatly reduced.
  • the bottom wall is stationary with respect to the treatment container and the slot is aligned with the guide in the treatment container.
  • the treatment container is essentially permanently covered by the stationary bottom wall and protected against external contamination.
  • the receiving device advantageously has side walls which surround the guide devices in order to form an upwardly open chamber.

  • the cover is preferably controllable in such a way that it is closed across the device when transporting objects, in particular wet substrates.
  • the lid is controlled such that when loading a not yet cleaned substrate the Füh ⁇ approximating means for receiving a cleaned substrate is covered to prevent contamination to said guide means.
  • the top of the lid is advantageously inclined with respect to the horizontal in order to promote the drainage of liquids located thereon.
  • a partition is provided between the guide devices.
