摘要
A new method of particle removal from solid surfaces, which will be called the ''freezing and melting method'', has been proposed. Substrates or materials to be cleaned are dipped into a certain liquid (ultrapure water with surfactant or methanol), and the liquid is frozen by liquid nitrogen and then melted. Submicron particles deposited on substrates (Si wafer and slide glass) were found to be effectively removed by this simple procedure. The main mechanisms of the particle removal are thought to be an expelling effect at the front of freezing (a kind of coacervation) and the difference in thermal shrinkage between frozen liquid and subtsrate.
