Description of the Invention (/) FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a wet processing method for manufacturing electronic components and semi-finished electronic components such as semiconductor crystals used in integrated circuits circle. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a substrate processing process using a fluid to improve a closed operation line, such as a semiconductor wafer and a flat panel display. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The wet processing method is widely used in the manufacturing process of integrated circuits, which generally includes semi-finished electronic components such as semiconductor wafers, flat panels, and other semi-finished electronic components. Generally speaking, semi-finished electronic components are placed in a liquid bath or container and then contacted with a series of reactive chemical treatment fluids and washing fluids. The processing fluid can be used without limitation for etching, photoresist removal, pre-diffusion washing of semi-finished electronic components, and other washing steps. An example of a processing system for semi-finished electronic components is described in U.S. Patent No. 4,633,893—McCormdl et al., Which is hereby incorporated by reference herein for complete disclosure. In typical wet processing technology, semi-finished electronic components are processed in a container filled with fluid (the container is sealed from the surrounding environment), a single water tank, a wet bench, or a liquid bath. In a typical wet processing technique, a semi-finished electronic component is exposed to a reactive chemical processing fluid to remove contaminants from the semi-finished electronic component (i.e., degreasing), or to etch portions of a surface. After this rinsing or etching is completed, chemicals will adhere to the surface of the semi-finished electronic component. These attached chemical substances must be removed before the semi-finished electronic component is processed with the next reactive chemical treatment fluid, so that the chemical residues will not contaminate the next reactive chemical step.

Explanation of the invention. Traditionally, these attached chemicals have been removed using deionized (DI) water. In the manufacture of electronic components or semi-finished electronic components, there is a trend toward the development and use of small-scale processing equipment, as well as smaller and simplified applications. However, the promotion of small-scale processing equipment has been alleviated by the trend towards increased productivity in the use of larger (i.e., 300mni) semi-finished crystals. Two generally known methods for miniaturization of equipment are a spray treatment method and a single liquid bath immersion method. Because of its advantages in smaller die shapes and larger wafer processing, the use of a single liquid bath process has been beneficial from a manufacturable standpoint. The wet processing immersion table that makes several liquid baths and rinsing tanks typically has a large water tank capacity, which can be separated at 6.25mm intervals to accommodate 200mm wafers at full load. The standard wafer interval when a 300mm wafer is fully loaded is 10mm. A full-flow processor using a single processing container has a smaller container size such that the wafer interval is half of the wafer interval processed in the immersion tank. This reduced-spacing treatment in a full-flow single treatment vessel is satisfactory, as a reduction in water and chemical consumption is achieved. Also, since the flow rate for equal total fluid volume in a single container will increase due to the reduced interval processing, wafer cleaning is improved. So 'in single-wafer processing of wafers smaller than half the standard interval, such as in one-third or one-quarter interval processing, is more satisfactory than the known one-half interval processing system. In wet processing, reducing the interval to one-third or one-fourth of the standard wafer box interval will reduce the consumption of water and chemicals to one-third or one-fourth, respectively. . As discussed previously, the paper standards apply to the national standards of the ten countries 丨 匚 ~ ^ 丨 Six “seeing grid” with ^: ^^ ”mm) 413833 A7 B7 V. Description of the invention The medium flow rate will be tripled and quadrupled in a quarter interval treatment. This single-container processing method of wafers with intervals less than half of the standard interval, however, has not been proven acceptable in the past due to the problem of reducing the interval processing in a single container51 in one-third or one-quarter An undesired tendency for fluids to flow around the wafer has been discovered during the kinky process. The non-uniform flow of the processing fluid flowing around the wafer can cause non-uniformity in wafer etching and scouring. Due to the uneven flow of the processing fluid produced by the reduced wet processing, the processing of 300mm wafers in a full-flow single processing container has failed to achieve the desired productivity and cost. Therefore, a technique is needed in the art A processing method that allows efficient processing of semi-finished electronic components in a single processing container, such as a 300 mm wafer, at which the wafer spacing can be less than half of the standard spacing for such wafers. The emphasis of the present invention is the same as other needs. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION: The present invention describes, in particular, a wet processing method for manufacturing electronic components and semi-finished electronic components, such as semiconductor wafers used in integrated circuits. Furthermore, the present invention relates to, for example, a method 1 for cleaning a semi-finished electronic component using a wet processing technique. Here, a method having an interval less than half of a standard wafer interval is efficiently processed in a single processing container.

Order Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs Employees' Cooperative Cooperative Printing 413833 A7 B7 Five 'Invention Description (The device and operation of printing a processing container by the Employees' Cooperative Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs is described in the aforementioned McConnell patent. However, the present invention is not intended to be limited to this patent The processing container described. Conventional devices are used in the art to transfer wafers from standard boxes to distances such as one-half interval, one-third interval, and one-quarter interval. Processed in a wafer carrier in a described processing vessel, where the wafer spacing is reduced from the standard spacing at the described processing vessel. As described above, with regard to wet processing in a single container processing system, this The wafer interval is less than half of the standard wafer interval, and there will be no satisfactory tendency for the fluid to flow through the periphery of the wafer stacked in this container. The wafer interval is now reduced to increase the resistance of the fluid to flow through the wafer, resulting in the flow of the processing fluid around the wafer. It has been found that the flow resistance in the center of the wafer is the highest. The processing fluid flows uniformly through the wafer in a single container system, and a flow resistance obstacle is fixed on the upper part of the wafer stack in the shell of the wafer container. This wafer stack may be a 300mm wafer divided into two One of the standard spaced-apart wafer boxes, and this wafer, round stack frame is more preferably a 300mm wafer box arranged at a half or quarter 'space. The flow resistance barrier is designed Before the fluid flows through the wafer, it will first flow through the barrier, so that the fluid is pushed to the center of the wafer, where the flow resistance is the greatest. In the preferred embodiment, the flow resistance An obstacle is a screen of any suitable porous material. The hole in the screen at the center of the screen is larger (higher pressure in the chamber here) than the hole next to the screen (lower pressure here). Therefore , Holes in this screen The holes can be separated closer in the center of the screen, and the holes next to the screen should be read on the back. Note this page. The paper size is applicable to China National Standards (CNS) Α4 size (2! 0 × 29 franchise). (%) 413833 A7 B7 Printed by the Zhijie Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs and printed by the 8th Industrial Cooperative Cooperative V. Description of invention (ξΓ) Holes can be separated by a large distance to allow more fluid to enter the chamber where the pressure is greater and less fluid to flow in Where the pressure is small. In this specific embodiment * the holes on the screen can be the same size or changed to provide the desired flow form. Preferably, the pattern of the holes and the size of the holes are selected to Provides minimal resistance to fluid flow in the center of the wafer and maximum resistance to fluid flow next to the wafer. A preferred design of a flow resistance barrier to distribute the plug flow condition of the fluid through the wafer is as described in the aforementioned U.S. Patent No. 4,633,893. The number, shape, size, and arrangement of holes in the screen can be selected by those skilled in the art based on the flow parameters that enhance the fluid flow toward the center of the crystal. These parameters include the size and shape of the container, the chemical composition of the fluid used, the rate of flow, and the pressure of the fluid. The orifice size should be large enough to allow gases dissolved in the liquid to pass through the screen. The holes in the barrier material can be made using lasers or known perforating devices. In order to reduce the hindrance of fluid flow in the barrier, the preferred materials, materials including fabric materials, and a fibrous mesh material for the flow resistance barrier are fibers that are dispersed in the flow resistance barrier by any fibrous network structure. Obstacles. Because defects made in the flow resistance barrier will be removed from the barrier within the time of use, it will increase the contaminants in the processing vessel and will also capture chemicals on it, so a fabric material blocks the barrier In general, r has almost no process defects and is an optimal flow resistance barrier material. In another preferred embodiment, the flow resistance barrier is a chemically resistant polymer screen material with iron _ (Ten〇_ the best entrance material. Flow resistance barrier in the crystal In the round processing operation, the first reading is required and the fee is charged.

Description of the invention (B) Chemical resistance to various chemical substances The property is better, so that the chemical degradation of the barrier material can be avoided. In another embodiment of the present invention, a fluid injection device such as a controlled injection nozzle is installed in the processing container to provide an increased wafer. Fluid flow in the central area. The position and output parameters of the injection nozzle are determined based on the above-mentioned known flow parameters with respect to the flow resistance barrier, and provide a uniform distribution of fluid flow on the wafer surface in a reduced interval process. Controlled fluid injection nozzles can be used in combination with the flow resistance barriers described herein to provide a uniform distribution of fluid flow across the wafer surface Or, the controlled fluid injection nozzle can be used alone to provide the desired flow distribution throughout the entire processing vessel. Adjustment devices or other flow control devices can also be used. Cleaning or washing that usually flows into a single liquid bath The velocity profile of the fluid must be controlled in a way that overcomes the high flow resistance in a certain area of the liquid bath. In the wafer example, the highest resistance occurs in the central part of the wafer (that is, the largest At the cross section) and the center of the stack. Another step in the present invention is to use magnetic oscillations during the chemical immersion stage of the wafer so that when the wet processing fluid flows through the wafer stack at less than one-half intervals. It can provide a uniform flow when it is mounted. During processing, the burst of acoustic current is used by magnetic wave oscillation, which can help the distribution of chemicals in the wafer. During this processing step, the ultrasonic wave is about 500 KHz to 1Mhz is distributed in the cleaning fluid in a known way to remove impurities from the wafer surface. Other frequencies or mixing techniques can also be used to overcome the authorities The large boundary layer found in the crystal when the dynamic resistance is present. This paper size applies the Chinese National Standard (CNS) Λ4 specification (210X 297 round) (#First read the precautions on the back then ^ -¾. This page)- Binding-41S833 A7 B7 V. Description of the Invention (1) Another step in the present invention is to use a very high injection rate for the fluid, so that when the fluid flows through the wafer stack at less than half the interval It can provide a uniform flow of wet processing fluid when using a rack. By using a very high chemical injection flow rate, due to the momentum of the flow, the chemicals are closely spaced between the wafers at one-third or one-quarter intervals. In a wafer cassette of 100-300mm wafers arranged in a quarter interval, the preferred chemical injection flow rate is 18 to 30 gpm (that is, 18-30 gpm per wafer) to provide Efficiently reduced interval wet processing in a single container. Another step in the present invention is to inject chemicals into the processing area of the container for a sufficient period of time to reach equilibrium, so that when the fluid flows through less than two Quarter interval When wafer stack frame may be provided a uniform flow of fluid wet treatment. Compared with the standard chemical injection time, with the use of a relatively long chemical injection time, even if the chemical may initially flow through the wafer in an uneven manner, after the equilibrium is reached, the chemical is in the center of the wafer. The concentration will be approximately equal to the concentration of chemicals around the wafer. The preferred chemical injection time to provide effective reduction of the interval wet processing in a single container is from 60 seconds to 120 seconds, depending on the flow rate and container size. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, the present invention can also be implemented in other specific forms, and according to this, the scope of patent protection should be regarded as the scope of the appended patents, rather than the above description.
