System Overview

High-Concentration Ozone, Dissolved in UPW at the Point of Use

The Inquivix Technologies ozone water system generates high-concentration ozone gas and dissolves it into ultrapure water to produce functional ozonated DI water at the point of use. Configurable concentrations from 10 to 100 ppm let each system match the specific oxidation requirements of every semiconductor wet process.

Ozone water provides a chemical-free alternative to traditional wet cleaning chemistries, most notably sulfuric peroxide mixtures (SPM / piranha solution). By replacing SPM with ozonated ultrapure water in applicable cleaning steps, semiconductor fabs reduce hazardous chemical consumption, lower chemical waste disposal costs, eliminate the safety risks associated with hot sulfuric acid handling, and achieve more uniform oxidation across the wafer surface, without compromising process performance.

01

Chemical-Free Oxidation

Replace SPM (piranha) in applicable cleaning steps with ozonated UPW, strong oxidation without hot sulfuric acid handling, hazardous waste, or chemical procurement burden.

02

Built-in Ozone Destruction

Integrated UV reflection destruction unit neutralizes residual ozone before exhaust, meeting fab environmental and safety requirements.

03

HMI + SECS/GEM Control

Touch-panel monitoring of concentration, flow, and destruction status, paired with SEMI SECS/GEM for MES integration and recipe automation.

Chemical-Free Oxidation Process

Ozonated ultrapure water provides strong oxidation capability without the chemical hazards, disposal costs, or environmental burden of traditional SPM cleaning chemistry. Ozone decomposes to oxygen and water, leaving no chemical residue on the wafer surface and no hazardous waste stream to manage.

Photoresist Stripping

High-concentration ozone water provides a chemical-free alternative to sulfuric peroxide mixtures (SPM) for photoresist stripping in applicable semiconductor wet bench processes. Delivers consistent oxidation power without the safety risks of hot sulfuric acid, the chemical procurement costs, or the hazardous waste burden of SPM chemistry.

Organic Contamination Removal

Highly effective removal of organic contaminants from wafer surfaces during pre-diffusion cleaning, post-etch residue removal, and inter-step cleaning sequences. The strong oxidation capability of dissolved ozone breaks down organic molecules on contact, preparing the surface for thermal or deposition processing.

Thin Chemical Oxide Growth

Controlled ozone water treatment produces a thin, uniform chemical oxide layer on silicon wafer surfaces. The oxide serves as a passivation layer that protects the surface during queue time between process steps and provides a consistent starting surface for subsequent gate oxide growth or thermal oxidation.
