Optimising Legacy Wet Strip for Advanced Packaging
In advanced packaging, resist strip is a repeat step across RDL, UBM, wafer-level bumping and rework, where residue and contamination directly impact yield and reliability. This talk assesses a practical alternative to piranha and solvent strip: ozone gas diffused through heated deionised water in an ozone rich, high temperature environment. Tool data shows complete removal, throughput comparable to legacy chemistries, reduced downstream contamination, and over 70% lower CO2e per wafer.
