Level 1 Contamination Reduction: Clean Factories
Class X means that in each cubic foot of air in the factory, there are less than X total particles of size greater than 0.5 µm.

Level 3 Contamination Reduction: Gettering
• “Trap” sites can be created by SiO2 precipitates (intrinsic gettering), or by backside damage (extrinsic gettering).
• In intrinsic gettering, CZ silicon is used and SiO2 precipitates are formed in the wafer bulk through temperature cycling at the start of the process.
SiO2 precipitates (white dots) in bulk of wafer.

Modeling Particle Contamination and Yield
• Vertical lines are estimated chip sizes (from the ITRS).
• Note that defect densities will need to be extremely small in the future to achieve the high yields required for economic IC manufacturing.
• (See the starting slide for particle defect densities.)

Modeling Wafer Cleaning
• The strongest oxidants are at the bottom (H2O2 and O3). These reactions go to the left grabbing e- and forcing (6) to the right.
• Fundamentally RCA clean works by using H2O2 as a strong oxidant.
