See full text

A wet etch apparatus includes a wafer chuck, a dispensing nozzle, a liquid etchant container, and an electric field generator. The dispensing nozzle is above the wafer chuck. The liquid etchant container is in fluid communication with the dispensing nozzle. The electric field generator is operative to generate an electric field across the wafer chuck. The electric field generator includes a first electrode and a second electrode spaced apart from the first electrode in a direction substantially perpendicular to a top surface of the wafer chuck, and the second electrode is an electrode plate above the wafer chuck.
