Abstract
A method for treating semiconductor wafer includes: providing a stack including a high-k layer including a first oxide material, wherein the first oxide material contains hafnium and/or zirconium, and a cap-layer including a second oxide material, wherein the cap-layer has been deposited on top of the high-k layer, wherein the second oxide material contains lanthanum, a lanthanide and/or aluminium; supplying liquid A to the surface of the semiconductor wafer, liquid A being an aqueous solution containing an oxidizing agent; supplying liquid B to the surface of the semiconductor wafer, liquid B being a liquid with a pH-value lower than 6; and conducting a step SC wherein a liquid C is supplied to the surface of the semiconductor wafer, wherein step SC is carried out after step SB, wherein liquid C is an aqueous acidic solution with a fluorine concentration of at least 10 ppm.
