Abstract

See full text

Provided is a method for cleaning a metal gate semiconductor, by which a resist adhering to a semiconductor can be effectively stripped while etching of metal gates is suppressed. The method includes an ashing step (step s1) of ashing a photoresist on a semiconductor; and a persulfuric acid cleaning step (step s2) of bringing, after the ashing step, the semiconductor that has been subjected to the ashing step into contact with a sulfuric acid solution containing persulfuric acid, and thereby stripping the photoresist on the semiconductor from the semiconductor, while the sulfuric acid solution containing persulfuric acid used in the persulfuric acid cleaning step has a hydrogen peroxide concentration of 16 mM as O or less, a sulfuric acid concentration of from 90% by mass to 96% by mass, a liquid temperature of from 70° C. to 130° C., and a persulfuric acid concentration of from 0.50 mM as O to 25 mM as O.
