piranha-wet-benchProcess Description:

During wafer fabrication it is necessary to perform cleaning sequences.  Wafer cleaning removes organics, particulates, surface oxide, surface ions, and metal contaminants.  Cleaning can be a multi-step process involving acids and bases.  A Piranha clean is one widely used process.  A Piranha clean is comprised of hot sulfuric acid and hydrogen peroxide and is effective in removing organic contaminants.
