Circulation type wafer cleaning equipment
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of wafer cleaning, in particular to circulating type wafer cleaning equipment.
Background
In the semiconductor manufacturing process, photolithography, etching, sputtering, deposition and the like are usually used, and inevitably
Since metal particles, organic impurities, and the like remain on the surface of the wafer and pollute the wafer, the wafer needs to be cleaned to remove photoresist, organic matters, adsorbates, and the like remaining on the surface of the wafer.
When cleaning a wafer, the wafer is generally required to be immersed in an ultrasonic cleaning tank containing cleaning liquid for cleaning, and is generally required to be cleaned for multiple times, that is, the cleaning liquid in the cleaning tank is required to be drained after each cleaning is completed, and then clean cleaning liquid is injected for cleaning for two or more times, which causes a great amount of waste of the cleaning liquid.
In order to solve the problems, the conventional circulating filter device is generally arranged on a cleaning tank and comprises a pump body, a connecting pipeline and a single filter, when the cleaning tank is cleaned, cleaning liquid in the cleaning tank is pumped into the filter by the pump body to be filtered and then returned to the cleaning tank, so that the circulation of the cleaning liquid can be formed, the waste of the cleaning liquid is greatly reduced, and the cleaning of the wafer can be completed by only a small amount of cleaning liquid. There are some problems with using a single filter, such as when the filter is found to be blocked seriously in the cleaning process (when the internal filter is blocked, the filtering efficiency of the cleaning liquid is reduced, the cleaning time of the wafer is prolonged, meanwhile, the internal pressure of the filter is too high, the filter is easy to leak due to the too high internal pressure), the pump body is required to be stopped timely by an operator, the filter is replaced, the cleaning liquid in the cleaning tank cannot continue to be filtered circularly, and impurities in the cleaning liquid cannot be removed timely, so that the subsequent cleaning time is prolonged.
