Abstract

See full text

The present invention is to prevent electrostatic breakdown or drying failure in a step of cleaning a backside of a semiconductor wafer, thereby improving reliability of a semiconductor device. A semiconductor wafer is rotated in a state where a backside of the semiconductor wafer is directed upward. A rinsing liquid is supplied to the backside of the semiconductor wafer from a nozzle to clean the same by a brush. During that time, a rinsing liquid is supplied to a surface of the semiconductor wafer from a nozzle disposed below that. At that time, a direction of spray of the rising liquid from the nozzle is set to be orthogonal to the surface of the semiconductor wafer, and a liquid flow of the rinsing liquid sprayed from the nozzle is applied to a position away from the center of the surface of the semiconductor wafer.
