Abstract:
A cleaning device for chemical-mechanical equipment, which includes: an irrotatable center shaft irrotatably coupled with a spindle which is rotated, the irrotatable center shaft including a first channel and a second channel formed in an interior of the irrotatable center shaft, cleaning liquid flowing into the first channel and compressed gas flowing into the second channel; and a nozzle block coupled with the spindle so as to revolve about the irrotatable center shaft above a polishing pad, the nozzle block mixing cleaning liquid supplied through the first channel with compressed gas supplied through the second channel so as to generate twin-fluid, and pressure-injecting the mixed twin-fluid on the polishing pad. Accordingly, cleaning liquid is pressurized so as to be rapidly injected on a polishing pad so that slurry particles and alien substances on the polishing pad are completely removed. Furthermore, wafer scratch can be prevented and the life of the polishing pad can also be increased.
