2. Description of the Related Art With the miniaturization and high integration of silicon semiconductor devices, particles (fine particles), contaminant metals, etc. attached to a semiconductor substrate in a semiconductor device manufacturing process are reduced.
There is an increasing tendency to lower the product yield of semiconductor devices and adversely affect device characteristics. For example, particles cause oxide film breakdown voltage failure, wiring short circuit, connection failure, and the like, and metal contamination causes oxide film breakdown voltage failure and an increase in leak current. By the way, since particles and metal impurities are generated in most steps of a manufacturing process of a semiconductor device such as an LSI, in order to improve a device yield and its characteristics, a semiconductor substrate is cleaned every time each manufacturing process is completed. And the substrate surface must be kept clean. Therefore, conventionally, a semiconductor device has been cleaned by immersing the semiconductor substrate in a cleaning liquid in the cleaning tank using a cleaning apparatus having a cleaning tank. Conventional semiconductor substrate cleaning apparatuses are roughly classified into (1) an open-type single-tank type cleaning apparatus in which the semiconductor substrate is cleaned in one cleaning tank whose upper part is opened to a gas atmosphere;
(2) An open-type multi-tank type cleaning apparatus in which a semiconductor substrate is cleaned in a plurality of cleaning tanks in which the upper part of the cleaning tank is opened to a gaseous atmosphere. It can be classified as a closed type single-tank type cleaning apparatus in which a semiconductor substrate is cleaned in a single cleaning tank.

The single-tank type cleaning apparatus as described in (1) and (3) requires a relatively small size as compared with the multi-tank type cleaning apparatus, and therefore requires only a small area in the clean room. Although small, as in the above step 2), the semiconductor substrate is cleaned only by immersing the semiconductor substrate in the cleaning tank filled with the cleaning liquid, and thus there is a problem that the cleaning effect is low. If the cleaning liquid can be circulated during the cleaning liquid processing, a tank flow (refers to the flow of the cleaning liquid in the tank with respect to the semiconductor substrate) is generated in the cleaning tank, and a high cleaning effect can be obtained. When washing by using sequentially
When the cleaning liquid is circulated by the conventional cleaning apparatus, the cleaning liquid cannot be circulated and a tank flow cannot be generated in the cleaning tank because the cleaning liquid inevitably comes into contact with the cleaning liquid. Further, the cleaning liquid can be continuously flowed into and out of the cleaning tank to generate a tank flow in the cleaning tank. However, the cleaning liquid is disposable, and the consumption of the cleaning liquid increases, which is uneconomical. Therefore, in the conventional single-tank type cleaning apparatus, when the cleaning liquid in the cleaning tank reaches a predetermined concentration, as described above, the supply of the cleaning liquid is stopped, and the cleaning is performed to the extent that the semiconductor substrate is simply immersed in the stationary cleaning liquid. I had to do it. Therefore, the cleaning effect is reduced.

There is a problem that the occupied area becomes large and the equipment cost of the clean room increases. Also, in a conventional cleaning tank, a flow in the tank is made closer to a one-way flow and a uniform flow by installing a flow straightening plate in the tank, and a device for making the cleaning effect in the substrate surface uniform has been made. However, since the rectifying plate is installed only on the upstream side or the downstream side of the semiconductor substrate with respect to the tank flow, turbulence occurs in the tank, and the cleaning effect in the substrate surface is made uniform. There was also a problem that was difficult.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present inventor has studied the reason why the cleaning liquid circulates when the cleaning liquid is circulated in the conventional single-tank type cleaning apparatus, and as a result, found that the detection position of the cleaning liquid concentration was bad. . That is, in the conventional single-tank type cleaning device,
A washing liquid concentration detector was installed in the washing tank to detect the washing liquid concentration in the washing tank.When the washing tank was replaced with pure water, the washing liquid concentration detector outputs a signal indicating that the washing liquid concentration is zero. Was. Therefore, the cleaning liquid not yet replaced with pure water remains in the circulation pipe, the circulation pump, etc.
It was found that the remaining cleaning liquid flowed into the cleaning tank in the next cleaning liquid processing step, causing contact. Therefore, the present inventor has set the detection position of the concentration of the cleaning liquid not in the cleaning tank but in the circulation pipe near the circulation pump to solve the problem of contact, thereby enabling the circulation of the cleaning liquid, and connecting the current plate to the cleaning tank. The cleaning effect and the uniformity of the cleaning effect in the surface of the substrate are improved by installing them at two locations, an upper portion and a lower portion, to increase the velocity of the tank flow and to make the cleaning effect uniform, thereby completing the present invention. Was.

In the present invention, the circulating amount of the cleaning liquid is arbitrary, and is set by experiments or the like. The capacity of the circulation pump and the size of the circulation pipe are determined based on the circulation amount of the cleaning liquid. Preferably, the cleaning liquid concentration detector is provided at a position close to the cleaning tank on the discharge side pipe of the circulation pump. By installing a cleaning liquid concentration detector at this position and detecting that the cleaning liquid concentration is equal to zero, it can be confirmed that the cleaning liquid in the cleaning tank, the circulation pipe and the circulation pump has been completely replaced with pure water. Therefore, no contact of the cleaning liquid occurs.
