System for processing a workpiece

摘要

An apparatus for processing a workpiece in a micro-environment includes a workpiece housing connected to be rotated by a motor. The workpiece housing forms a substantially closed processing chamber where one or more processing fluids are distributed across at least one face of the workpiece by centrifugal force generated during rotation of the housing. A sump is connected to an inlet and an outlet in the chamber. Rotation of the workpiece housing recirculates fluid into the chamber.
