Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent damage of mask at the time of exposure and to remove porjection by covering the wafer with a substance providing a drastically slow etching rate as compared with the wafer, mechanically removing the substance showing slow etching rate on the projection and selectively etching only the projection by the chemical etching. CONSTITUTION:The supporting means 6 is rotated, the photo resist is dropped from the nozzle 8 covering the photo resist layer 4. Then, the photo resist is stopped to drop from the nozzle 8, the supporting means is stopped to rotate, the nozzle 8 is moved so that it does not located between the supporting means 6 and the parallel plate 9, and the wafer 10 is pressed by moving downward the parallel plate 9 which is parallel to the supporting means 6. Thereby, the projection 5 is partly broken, the oxide film 3 on the projection is broken, the vacuum pump is stopped and the chemical etching is carried out by taking the substrate. As shown in Fig.1, amount of photo resist on the projection 5 can be reduced and the oxide film 3 can be broken easily by controlling the number of rotations of supporting means 6, dropping rate of photo resist and viscocity of photo resist.

The support base 6 has a hole 7 and is connected to a vacuum pump, and by driving the vacuum pump, the support base 6 and the wafer 10 are brought into close contact with each other. A drive motor that rotates the support base 6 is connected to the support base 6 and rotates the support base 6. Next, the photoresist is dropped from the nozzle 8 to be in contact with the photoresist. Next, the fall of the photoresist from the nozzle 8 is stopped, the rotation of the support base 6 is stopped, and the nozzle 8 is
The wafer 10 is moved so that it is not located between the support stand 6 and the parallel plate 9, and the wafer 10 is crimped using the parallel plate 9 which is parallel to the support stand 6. To do this: Destroy a part of the protrusion 5 and destroy the abraded film 3 on the protrusion 1~ Stop the air pump, pick up the substrate, and chemically etch it.
