What it is

General reference — not yet source-verified

Backside etchers are wet-processing tools used in semiconductor manufacturing to remove material from the unpatterned rear side of a wafer. The rear side may carry films deposited unintentionally during front-side processing or layers that need to be stripped before later assembly steps.

Applications

General reference — not yet source-verified

Typical applications for a backside etcher of this type include removing oxide, nitride, polysilicon, and metal residues from the wafer backside. The tool can also prepare a wafer rear surface for subsequent assembly or packaging steps.
