Detailed Description
The invention provides a method for cleaning indium phosphide polycrystal material, which comprises the following steps:
sequentially immersing indium phosphide polycrystal material into bromomethanol, hydrofluoric acid solution and hydrochloric acid solution for cleaning, then carrying out ultrasonic cleaning in water, and finally dehydrating and drying to finish cleaning;
the volume concentration of the bromomethanol is 2-5%, and the cleaning time is 30-60 s; the concentration of the hydrofluoric acid solution is 0.5-2 mol/L, and the cleaning time is 30-60 min; the concentration of the hydrochloric acid solution is 2-4 mol/L, and the cleaning time is 10-30 min.
The method comprises the steps of firstly placing the indium phosphide polycrystal material to be cleaned in a cleaning tank with a bromomethanol solution, ensuring that the bromomethanol solution can completely permeate the indium phosphide polycrystal material, continuously lightly stirring the solution, fully contacting the solution with the indium phosphide polycrystal material, and soaking and washing for corrosion.
In the invention, in the production or processing process of the indium phosphide polycrystal material, holes, gaps and edges and corners of the material are inevitably produced, the material cannot be completely polished and smooth by sand paper, impurities and oxide layers in the holes and the gaps cannot be cleaned by the existing cleaning process, protruding parts such as the edges and corners are easy to damage and scratch the crucible for loading the indium phosphide monocrystal, and the crucible has serious influence on the next process. After the solution of bromomethanol is added for corrosion, the solution can clean and corrode places such as corners, scratches, holes and gaps on the surface of the indium phosphide polycrystal material which cannot be polished or cannot be polished thoroughly by sand paper along with continuous stirring of the solution, and the polishing is smooth.
In the invention, the bromomethanol solution is prepared by preparing UP-level bromine and methanol, and the volume concentration of the bromomethanol solution is preferably 2-5%, more preferably 3-4%; such as 2%, 2.5%, 3%, 3.5%, 4%, 4.5%, 5%, preferably a range value having any of the above values as an upper limit or a lower limit; the washing time is preferably 30 to 60 seconds, more preferably 40 to 50 seconds, such as 30 seconds, 35 seconds, 40 seconds, 45 seconds, 50 seconds, 55 seconds, 60 seconds, and preferably a range value having any of the above values as an upper limit or a lower limit.
In addition, after the indium phosphide polycrystal material is processed, the surface is attached with organic impurities such as grease and wax, the surface has a covering effect on other inorganic impurities, and the product generated by the method is easy to carbonize under the high-temperature condition, and is not easy to remove when attached to the surface of the polycrystal material.

If the second step is performed by HCl, the Si element cannot be cleaned, and the SiO is 2 Other impurities covered cannot be cleaned, so that the cleaning efficiency is affected, and therefore, the second step needs to be cleaned by HF acid.
In the present invention, the concentration of the HCl solution is preferably 2 to 4mol/L, more preferably 2.5 to 3.5mol/L, such as 2mol/L,2.5mol/L,3mol/L,3.5mol/L,4mol/L, preferably a range value having any of the above values as an upper limit or a lower limit; the washing time is preferably 10 to 30 minutes, more preferably 20 to 25 minutes.
