ABSTRACT:
The purpose of the present invention is to remove minute particles adhered to the surface of semiconductor wafers effectively in the cleaning process of semiconductor wafers. In the final rinsing step using ultra-pure water or hydrogen water and carried out after cleaning of semiconductor wafers with HF solution, ultrasonic waves are irradiated in the cleaning solution after a prescribed time delay (preferably 20-30 sec or more).
