Abstract: The improved rinse tank includes an external shell and an internal shell. For one embodiment, the external shell preferably defines a five sided open-top tank with a top open to the atmosphere. The internal shell is preferably disposed within the external shell and has a configuration that will accommodate at least two semiconductor wafer boats filled with six inch semiconductor wafers. The external shell is preferably sized large enough to completely immerse the wafer boat and wafers in water when the rinse tank is filled. A chamber may be formed between the external shell and the internal shell within the lower portion of the rinse tank. Two or more deionized water inlets may be provided at the bottom of the rinse tank at opposite corners. Three or more compressed air nozzles may also be provided at the lower portion of the rinse tank. Multiple deionized water jet ports are provided at the internal shell.
