  • Patent number: 11927392
    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a wafer drying system and method that detects airborne molecular contaminants in a drying gas as a feedback parameter for a single wafer or multi-wafer drying process. For example, the system comprises a wafer drying station configured to dispense a drying gas over one or more wafers to dry the one or more wafers, a valve configured to divert the drying gas to a first portion and a second portion, and an exhaust line configured to exhaust the first portion of the drying gas. The system further comprises a detector configured to receive the second portion of the drying gas and to determine a real time property of the second portion of the drying gas, and a control unit configured to control a feedback operation of the wafer drying station based on the real time property of the second portion of the drying gas.
