Abstract

See full text

The invention is directed to a novel method for detecting surface damage to polished silicon wafers. For very fine defects and scratches an oxidation step is used. The oxide is removed and the wafer is treated in an etch solution containing pyrocatechol, ethylene diamine and water. The defects are detectable by the naked eye.
