Methods and apparatus for cleaning substrates
Abstract:
A method for effectively cleaning vias (20034), trenches (20036) or recessed areas on a substrate (20010) using an ultra/mega sonic device (1003, 3003, 16062, 17072), comprising: applying liquid (1032) into a space between a substrate (20010) and an ultra/mega sonic device (1003, 3003, 16062, 17072); setting an ultra/mega sonic power supply at frequency f1 and power P1 to drive said ultra/mega sonic device (1003, 3003, 16062, 17072); after the ratio of total bubbles volume to volume inside vias (20034), trenches (20036) or recessed areas on the substrate (20010) increasing to a first set value, setting said ultra/mega sonic power supply at frequency f2 and power P2 to drive said ultra/mega sonic device (1003, 3003, 16062, 17072); after the ratio of total bubbles volume to volume inside the vias (20034), trenches (20036) or recessed areas reducing to a second set value, setting said ultra/mega sonic power supply at frequency f1 and power P1 again; repeating above steps till the substrate (20010) being cleaned.
