  • Patent number: 11000879
    Abstract: Provided is a method and apparatus for treating a substrate with a liquid. The substrate treating method comprises a pre-treating step for supplying the treatment liquid containing hydrogen fluoride (HF) to the substrate and treating the substrate before the surface modification step and a surface modification step for supplying an alkene-based chemical onto a substrate to change the surface of the substrate to a hydrophobic state. As a result, the surface of the substrate is uniform, and generation of particles can be reduced when the substrate is removed.

  • Publication number: 20210066099
    Abstract: A method for processing a substrate includes a liquid treatment step of performing liquid treatment on the substrate by dispensing a treatment liquid onto the rotating substrate and a cleaning step of stopping the dispensing of the treatment liquid and dispensing a cleaning solution onto the substrate. In the cleaning step, a first liquid is dispensed from a first nozzle above the rotating substrate to a point spaced apart from the center of the substrate in a first direction, and a second liquid is dispensed from a second nozzle above the rotating substrate to a point spaced apart from the center of the substrate in a second direction. When viewed from above, the first liquid flows toward the second nozzle after dispensed onto the substrate, and the second liquid flows toward the first nozzle after dispensed onto the substrate.
