Various methods of making thin film is being used in semiconductor manufacturing process. The most common method in this field includes CVD(Chemical Vapor Deposition) and PVD(Physical Vapor Deposition). Thin film is deposited on both the backside and the frontside of wafers. The thin film deposited on the backside has poor thickness profile, and can contaminate wafers in the following processes. If wafers with the thin film remaining on the backside are immersed in batch type process tank, the thin film fall apart from the backside and contaminate the nearest wafer. Thus, it is necessary to etch the backside of the wafer selectively without etching the frontside, and chemical injection nozzle positioned under the wafer can perform the backside etching. In this study, the backside chemical injection nozzle with optimized chemical injection profile is built for single wafer tool. The evaluation of this nozzle, performed on $Si_3N_4$ layer deposited on the backside of the wafer, shows the etching rate uniformity of less than 5% at the etching rate of more than $1000{\AA}$.

Improved far field type(improved type) megasonic applicable to the cleaning equipment of single wafer processing type has been developed. In this study, to improve the uniformity of acoustic pressure distribution(APD), we utilize far field with relatively uniform APD, piezoelectric ceramic with a triangle hole in its center to prevent standing wave resulted from radial mode, and reflected wave from the wall of waveguide. On the basis of these methods, two analysis models of improved type were designed to which piezoelectric ceramic of different shape of electrode attached, and APD were analyzed by means of finite element method, and then one of them was selected by analysis results, finally, the selected model was fabricated. Test results show that the fabricated is better in the uniformity of APD than the imported and the conventional, also the fabricated shows high particle removal efficiency of 92.3% using DI water alone as a cleaning solution.
