Abstract

ABSTRACTThe effects described in this paper are specific to cleaning with mechanical brush scrubbing. Oxides, both thermally grown and deposited are common cleaning applications for mechanical brush scrubbing. Thermally grown oxides present higher final defect counts after scrubbing with deionized water compared to deposited oxides. In this paper we present our results on the cleaning of unpolished and polished oxide surfaces and show differences in these results to be dependent on the chemistry used for cleaning and the degree of hydrophilicity of the wafer surface.
