摘要： A processing container (610) for providing a flow of a processing fluid during immersion processing of at least one surface of a microelectronic workpiece is set forth. The processing container comprises a principal fluid flow chamber (505) providing a flow of processing fluid to at least one surface of the workpiece and a plurality of nozzles (535) disposed to provide a flow of processing fluid to the principal fluid flow chamber. The plurality of nozzles are arranged and directed to provide vertical and radial fluid flow components that combine to generate a substantially uniform normal flow component radially across the surface of the workpiece. An exemplary apparatus using such a processing container is also set forth that is particularly adapted to carry out an electroplating process. In accordance with a further aspect of the present disclosure, an improved fluid removal path (640) is provided for removing fluid from a principal fluid flow chamber during immersion processing of a microelectronic workpiece.

摘要： Apparatus and method for thermally controlled processing of microelectronic workpieces with liquids. An apparatus in accordance with and embodiment of the invention includes a process vessel configured to carry a processing liquid, such as an electroless processing liquid. The vessel has a thermally transmissive wall for transferring heat to and/or from the processing liquid within. A heat transfer device, such as a reservoir that receives processing liquid spilling over from the process vessel, transfers heat to or from the processing liquid within the process vessel. The heat transfer device can also transfer heat to or from an internal or external heat source, such as a conduit carrying a heat transfer fluid, or an electrical resistance heater. The interaction between the microelectronic workpiece and the processing liquid can be further controlled by controlling the rate at which the microelectronic workpiece rotates and/or the manner in which the microelectronic workpiece is introduced to and/or withdrawn from the processing liquid.
