  • Publication number: 20120009792
    Abstract: A semiconductor wet etchant includes deionized water, a fluorine-based compound, an oxidizer and an inorganic salt. A concentration of the fluorine-based compound is 0.25 to 10.0 wt % based on a total weight of the etchant, a concentration of the oxidizer is 0.45 to 3.6 wt % based on a total weight of the etchant, and a concentration of the inorganic salt is 1.0 to 5.0 wt % based on a total weight of the etchant. The inorganic salt comprises at least one of an ammonium ion (NH4+) and a chlorine ion (Cl?).

  • Patent number: 7985297
    Abstract: A cleaning solution for a quartz part and a method for cleaning the quartz part are provided. The cleaning solution includes from about 5 to about 35 wt % of an ammonium compound, from about 7 to about 55 wt % of an acidic oxidizing agent, from about 5 to about 30 wt % of a fluorine compound and a remaining amount of water. Residual thin films and impurities on the surface of the quartz part may be removed while reducing the damage onto the quartz part.

  • Patent number: 7795198
    Abstract: In a composition for removing a polymeric contaminant that may remain on an apparatus for manufacturing a semiconductor device and a method of removing a polymeric contaminant using the composition, the composition includes from about 5 to 10 percent by weight of a fluoride salt, from about 5 to 15 percent by weight of an acid or a salt thereof, and from about 75 to 90 percent by weight of an aqueous solution of glycol. The composition can effectively remove the polymeric contaminant from the apparatus within a relatively short period of time, and suppress damages to parts of the apparatus.
