Description of the Related Art Polishing of a compound semiconductor substrate such as GaAs is often carried out by using an aqueous solution of NaClO (sodium hypochlorite) as a polishing liquid and using a polyurethane-based artificial leather polisher (polishing cloth). Regarding the polishing of compound semiconductors, for example, “Technical data collection for ultra-precision polishing / mirror-finishing technology” p387-389, October 31, 1987.
Japan Business Development Center-Publishing ". The polishing liquid scrapes the wafer by a chemical action, and the polishing cloth physically scrapes the wafer. The polishing device includes a surface plate and a pressure head. Stick some wafers on the bottom of the pressure head,
The pressure head is rotated against the rotating surface plate, and the surface plate is also rotated while supplying the polishing liquid onto the surface plate. The wafer is gradually scraped by the movement that combines the rotation of the pressure head and the revolution of the surface plate. Recently, a prepared polishing liquid is commercially available. This also has sodium hypochlorite as a main component, and the wafer can be polished by the same action.

Since the abrasive grains physically act, the wafer is damaged. Although scratches are less likely to occur when the amount of polishing liquid is increased, it is uneconomical if the amount of polishing liquid is constantly large. Therefore, the amount of polishing liquid is increased near the end of polishing. An additional pipe is used so that the polishing liquid is ejected at once.

The polishing plate was moved to a water washing step manually or by a transport mechanism, and was washed there with water to remove the polishing liquid. There was a time delay between the end of polishing and the removal of the polishing liquid. During this time, chemical corrosion by the polishing liquid proceeds. Etching pits are formed because the substrate is locally corroded due to the irregularly adhered polishing liquid. Further, the drug is deposited and foreign matter is attached to the surface of the substrate. Alternatively, oxidation by the polishing liquid proceeds. Due to these causes, the quality of the surface of the wafer deteriorates. It is an object of the present invention to remove the polishing liquid as soon as possible after the completion of polishing so as to prevent the wafer from being corroded, the chemicals being deposited, and being oxidized. In the above-mentioned conventional technique, hydrogen peroxide is applied to the platen to neutralize the chemical action of the polishing liquid. It has no direct wafer cleaning action.
It is intended to wash away the polishing liquid by contact with the surface plate. Is a method of flowing a large amount of polishing liquid in the final stage, and has no function of removing the polishing liquid. Is to neutralize the polishing liquid with sodium thiosulfate, but this action is also indirect because it also flows on the surface plate.

る。The polishing liquid removes the surface of the wafer by a chemical action, and if it remains, it corrodes the wafer. Corrosion begins immediately after polishing. The present invention is
After polishing the compound semiconductor wafer with the polishing liquid, the wafer is immediately lifted and pure water or the like is directly sprayed on the wafer surface to wash away the polishing liquid. That is, when polishing is completed, the processing head is lifted to separate the wafer surface from the polishing cloth, and pure water or the like is directly sprayed on the exposed surface of the wafer. Cleaning should be done as soon as possible. The time from the end of polishing to the start of cleaning is preferably within 10 seconds. It is more effective if it is within 3 seconds. In the present invention, pure water is sprayed immediately after polishing to clean the wafer surface. This is done by providing an upward cleaning liquid pipe (shower nozzle or the like) near the rotary platen and spraying pure water or the like from there. Since the polishing liquid is washed away, the wafer is not corroded after polishing. No pits due to local corrosion. A wafer having a high quality surface can be obtained.

必要である。The polishing procedure from the beginning is as follows. Polishing is performed as follows, as already described. The rotary plate on which the polishing cloth is attached is rotated to supply the polishing liquid. The wafer is attached to the polishing plate, the wafer is attached to the processing head, and the processing head is pressed against the polishing cloth. The processing head is rotated and the rotary platen is revolved. The surface of the wafer contacts the polishing cloth. The wafer is polished by the friction with the polishing cloth and the chemical action of the polishing liquid. When this work is completed, the processing head is lifted, and the surface of the wafer is exposed. Pure water or the like is sprayed from the shower nozzle onto the wafer. Since the water is directly sprayed, the polishing liquid is instantaneously removed from the wafer. Since the polishing liquid is completely removed, no etching pits are formed by the residual polishing liquid thereafter. A good surface wafer is obtained. When jetting pure water, it is better to rotate the processing head. This is because it is easier to remove the polishing liquid completely. In addition to pure water, polishing stopper,
Water containing a polishing stopper may be sprayed. It must be a liquid that does not adversely affect the wafer even if it remains.
