Method for cleaning a ceramic member for use in a system for producing semiconductors, a cleaning agent and a combination of cleaning agents

摘要

The present invention provides a method for cleaning a ceramic member for use in a system for producing semiconductors. The method has the step of cleaning the ceramic member with an organic acid or a weak acid. Preferably, the ceramic member is cleaned with a strong acid before the cleaning with an organic acid or a weak acid. The ceramic member may be subjected to a blasting treatment before the cleaning with an organic acid or a weak acid. According to the method, the amount of metal transferred from the ceramic member to a semiconductor may be considerably reduced.
