Abstract:
1. A substrate cleaning apparatus comprising: a substrate entering guide unit for entering a substrate from outside in a proper direction, wherein the substrate entering guide unit includes an upper structure and a lower structure facing each other, and the two facing faces of the upper structure and the lower structure are sloped faces having a gradient of a certain angle; a foreign material removing unit for receiving the substrate from the substrate entering guide unit and removing debris formed on the substrate; a foreign material cleaning unit for receiving the substrate from the foreign material removing unit and cleaning to remove debris remaining on the substrate; and a position controller for controlling the position of the substrate carried out of the foreign material cleaning unit, wherein the foreign material cleaning unit includes: a manifold including a plurality of deionized water holes, suction holes and air holes; and a porous cleaning plate combined to the manifold by an upper fastening screw including a through hole communicating with the deionized water holes and the suction holes, wherein the foreign material cleaning unit injects air to the substrate through the suction holes and sucks the injected air, and injects cleaning solution through the deionized water holes toward the substrate to generate bubble by using the cleaning solution and the injected air, and wherein the air holes are communicated with an air passage between the porous cleaning plate and the manifold so that air is injected toward the substrate through the entire surface of the porous cleaning plate of the foreign material cleaning units through the air passage.
