Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent the quality deterioration of a surface without requiring a special discharge processing and with low cost by a method wherein, in a surface polishing method using hypochlorous acid system abrasive, the surface is treated with H2O2 aqueous solution just before polishing is finished. CONSTITUTION:In the polishing process of GaAs using hypochlorous acid system abrasive, an oxidizing reaction shown by the following firstly occurs; GaAs+4 ClO<-> GaAsO4+4Cl<->. Next the GaAsO4 being oxide formed in the above reaction is dissolved by alkali. However, when the surface of the GaAs wafer is treated with H2O2 aqueous solution just before polishing is finished, H2O2 acts as reducing agent, and the following reaction occurs in stead of the above reaction; GaAs+ClO<->+H2O2 GaAs+Cl<->+H2O+O2 . By the effect of this reaction, the action of hypochlorous acid system abrasive is interrupted at once, and etching and oxidizing on the GaAs surface are controlled. As the result, the generation of fine irregularities is prevented, and a wafer free from haze on the surface can be obtained.
