異常拡散、酸化膜のピンホール。(Prior art) In the manufacture of semiconductor devices, pattern formation requires a photoresist (PR) process, and it takes 5 to 50 minutes to complete an LSI.
It is normal to go through the PR process more than 10 times. This PR process involves applying resist to a semiconductor wafer, exposing it to
After the pattern is processed by developing and etching, the resist must be removed. This resist stripping is usually performed by immersing the wafer in an organic solvent. In such conventional resist stripping methods, it is difficult to say that the resist is completely stripped, and some residual resist may be left on the wafer. This causes abnormal patterns and various defects in the next process. For example, abnormal diffusion, pinholes in oxide film.

、’1次に本発明の実施例について説明する。First, a conventional resist stripping process will be described with reference to a schematic diagram. FIG. 1 is a diagram showing the flow of the organic stripping apparatus. The wafer that has been sent to the resist stripper after the pattern forming process using the resist is completed is treated with, for example, a stripper solution, and then treated with trichlene (in the next step) and ethanol (in the Q tank), and washed with water in the Q tank. Once completed, it is sent to the next process.At this time, depending on the type and thickness of the resist, the shape of the underlying pattern, or the pattern forming process using the resist, the above resist peeling process may not completely peel off, so some so-called resist may remain on the wafer. In order to evaluate the remaining resist, resist coating using 25 4-inch wafers → baking → exposure →
After the process such as development → etching, etc. After the above-mentioned resist removal process, visual inspection in the perpendicular and parallel directions to the radial direction of the wafer was performed using a metallurgical microscope with a magnification of 400 times. ~3 locations were observed. This resist residue may cause serious effects as mentioned above in the subsequent process.
, 'First, embodiments of the present invention will be described.
