Abstract

See full text

Methods and compositions for purging and cleaning a semiconductor fabrication system are disclosed herein. In general, the disclosed methods utilize solvents comprising hydrofluoroethers. Hydrofluoroethers are non-toxic and have low moisture content, preventing heat generation from organometallic precursor hydrolysis. In an embodiment, a method of cleaning a semiconductor fabrication system comprises dissolving at least one chemical precursor used in semiconductor fabrication in at least one delivery line with a solvent to clean the at least one delivery line. The solvent generally comprises a hydrofluoroether. The methods and compositions may be used in a variety of semiconductor film deposition processes.
