    Abstract: A silicon wafer cleaning method is provided. Firstly, a silicon wafer is provided. Then, a polymer cleaning step is performed to clean a surface of the silicon wafer. After the polymer cleaning step, a deionized water/carbon dioxide gas discharging step is performed, so that the charges accumulated on the surface of the silicon wafer can be instantly removed. After the deionized water/carbon dioxide gas discharging step, two or more particle removing steps are performed. In addition, an air-jet step is performed during the time interval between every two sub-steps of a single particle removing step. Consequently, the cleaning efficiency of removing the particles will be enhanced.
