ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for cleaning and drying a semiconductor wafer. The apparatus includes a vessel adapted to immerse a partially completed semiconductor wafer in a liquid comprising water. The apparatus also includes a control valve operably coupled to the vessel through a drain, and adapted to allow a gaseous mixture to displace the liquid in the vessel, where the liquid is displaced adjacent to the front face of the partially completed wafer. A controller is included. The controller is operably coupled to a plurality of nozzles. The controller can be used to pulse a drying fluid from the plurality of nozzles to the partially completed wafer to remove a possibility of liquid which may be attached to the partially completed wafer.
