TLDR
In this article, a silicon substrate 1 is cleaned by ultrapure water which contains ozone, a silicon oxide film 3 is formed, and particles 2 and metal impurities M are taken into the inside an the surface of the silicon oxide 3.
Abstract
PURPOSE: To easily remove particles and metal impurities which have adhered to the surface of a semiconductor substrate. CONSTITUTION: A silicon substrate 1 is cleaned by ultrapure water which contains ozone, a silicon oxide film 3 is formed, and particles 2 and metal impurities M are taken into the inside an the surface of the silicon oxide film 3. Then, the silicon substrate 1 is cleaned by a dilute hydrofluoric acid aqueous solution, the silicon oxide film 3 is etched and removed, and, at the same time, the particles 2 and the metal impurities M are removed.
