2. Description of the Related Art A semiconductor substrate typified by a silicon wafer cut and sliced from a single crystal ingot is:
After passing through steps such as mechanical polishing (lapping) and chemical etching, mechanical chemical polishing (mechanochemical polishing) is performed. In the mechanical and chemical polishing step of the final polishing, the silicon wafer attached to the holder is pressed against a soft polishing pad such as a polyester felt or a laminate stuck on a rotary platen, and the polishing pad is dropped while the polishing liquid is dropped. Is rotated to polish the wafer surface to a mirror surface. This polishing liquid contains, for example, about 50 nm.
A polishing liquid is used in which abrasive grains made of fine powder of SiO 2 having a particle size of 1 are dissolved in an aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide (NaOH). Here, the reason for preparing the polishing solution by dissolving the abrasive grains in an aqueous sodium hydroxide solution is that firstly, the OH group of NaOH reacts with Si of the wafer to generate silicon oxide, which is scraped off with fine powder of SiO 2. Secondly, the pH of the polishing solution is increased to increase the flatness of the wafer, and the OH
This is because ions repel the SiO 2 particles to prevent aggregation of the particles. Heretofore, when the polishing with the polishing liquid has come to an end, the supply of the polishing liquid has been stopped and, at the same time, the rinsing liquid has been supplied to remove the abrasive grains from the wafer surface. Conventionally, ultrapure water has been used as the rinsing liquid, and during rinsing, ultrapure water has been supplied to the polishing pad on the surface plate.

However, the conventional rinsing method using ultrapure water has the following problems. When the slurry-like polishing liquid remaining on the polishing pad is diluted with ultrapure water, the pH of the polishing liquid drops to near neutrality, and the abrasive grains cannot maintain a dispersed state and agglomerate, and the wafer surface is aggregated. To adhere to and remain. The abrasive grains agglomerated in the polishing liquid interact with the wafer surface due to a decrease in pH to near neutrality, thereby causing micro-scratch, damage and the like on the wafer surface. Further, when abrasive grains remain on the wafer surface, pits are formed on the wafer surface in a cleaning step after removal from the polishing apparatus.
