Description

Wet treater
The present invention relates to wet treater, particularly be used for cleaning and handling the Semiconductor substrate wet treater of (hereinafter being called wafer) with chemical method.
In wet treater, an important factor is to improve wafer to clean and chemically treated effect.For this reason, Chang Gui wet treater (conventional example 1) is a monolithic type.That is, a wafer is placed in the process chamber.Treat liquid (be used for clean or chemical treatment) with jet injection to the wafer that is rotating.In the method, once only handle a wafer.Therefore, output is very low, and manufacturing cost is very high.
In order to address this problem, a kind of multiple-grooved wet treater is arranged, be used for carrying out continuously wafer and clean and chemical treatment.Conventional multiple-grooved wet treater has two types: the ejection-type shown in immersion type shown in Figure 5 and Fig. 6 and 7.(cutaway view) as shown in Figure 5, in the multiple-grooved wet treater (conventional example 2) of immersion type, the carrier 31 that accommodates a plurality of wafers 1 is immersed in treat liquid 32 (being used for cleaning or chemical treatment), treat liquid provides by being arranged on treatment box 33 following inlets 34, and treat liquid 32 is overflowed to flow into and is arranged in the treatment trough 33 open tops discharge ditch 35 on every side simultaneously.In described immersion type multiple-grooved wet treater, the wafer 1 that is contained in the carrier 31 is immersed in the treat liquid 32.Therefore, when clean wafers 1, the dirt that is attached on the carrier 31 can spread in the cleaning fluid, thereby pollutes wafer 1.In addition, owing to the interval between the wafer that is contained in the carrier 31 is not very big, therefore can not obtain high cleaning efficiency.The contamination particle that is attached to wafer 1 can not removed fully.In addition, when carrying out the chemical treatment of wafer 1, the replacing of chemical liquid is too slow, needs the very long processing time.
In view of above problem, recently, often use the ejection-type wet treater.In the conventional multiple-grooved wet treater (conventional example 3) of described ejection-type, (cutaway view) as shown in Figure 6, the carrier 31 that accommodates a plurality of wafers 1 is placed in the process chamber 36, so that the treat liquid 32 that acceptance is ejected by the nozzle 37 that is fixed to process chamber 36 tops (being used for cleaning or chemical treatment).Yet because nozzle 37 is arranged on fixing position, because carrier 31, cleaning fluid or chemical liquid can not reach all parts of wafer.In addition, quite long by nozzle 37 to the distance of wafer 1, can not obtain enough cleaning or chemical treatment effect.
For addressing this problem, developed the ejection-type multiple-grooved wet treater of no carrier now.Fig. 7 is the perspective view of the conventional multiple-grooved wet treater (conventional example 4) of the ejection-type of described no carrier, a pair of suspension bracket (hanger) 38 wherein is set is used to place a plurality of wafers 1, and nozzle 37 is fixed on the suspension bracket 38.In process chamber 36, treat liquid 32 (being used for cleaning or chemical treatment) is ejected into the wafer 1 that is supported by suspension bracket 38 by the nozzle 37 that is arranged on the suspension bracket 38.Adopt this structure, do not have carrier to interfere with the problem of treat liquid 32 jet flows of wafer 1, the distance between nozzle 37 and the wafer 1 also is reduced.Therefore, compare, improved cleaning or chemical treatment effect with the ejection-type multiple-grooved wet treater of conventional example 3.Yet in the ejection-type multiple-grooved wet treater of described no carrier, nozzle 37 is arranged on assigned position, and nozzle 37 still has a segment distance to wafer 1.Therefore, cleaning fluid or chemical liquid can not be ejected on the wafer 1 equably, still can not reach enough cleaning or chemical treatment effects.In addition, when clean wafers 1, only can wash bulky grain, so cleaning performance is insufficient.
Above-mentioned conventional wet treater has variety of issue.Under single panel type wet treater situation, once only handle a wafer, reduce output and increased manufacturing cost.
In addition, in the multiple-grooved wet treater, though once can handle a plurality of wafers, under the situation of immersion type multiple-grooved wet treater, when clean wafers 1, the contamination particle that is attached on the carrier 31 is dispersed in the cleaning fluid, has polluted wafer 1.That is, cleaning efficiency reduces, and can not fully remove attached to the contamination particle on the wafer 1.In addition, when wafer 1 was carried out chemical treatment, the liquid changing speed of wafer 1 was very slow, and processing needs the very long cycle.Under the situation of ejection-type multiple-grooved wet treater, exist cleaning fluid or chemical treatment liquid not to be ejected into equably on the wafer 1, and feasible can not the acquisition of the distance between nozzle 37 and the wafer 1 effectively cleaned or the chemical treatment effect.In addition, when clean wafers 1, only large-sized contamination particle can be removed, sufficient cleaning performance can not be reached.
Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a kind of can a plurality of wafers of single treatment and have good cleaning or the wet treater of chemical treatment effect.
Wet treater according to the present invention comprises: the chamber of handling substrate; The cartridge unit of clamp substrate; Be located at the treat liquid pipe in the cartridge unit; And be located on the cartridge unit and the treat liquid nozzle that is connected with the treat liquid pipe, be used for treat liquid is ejected into substrate.
