Patent ID: 7047984

Claim:
A cleaning apparatus for semiconductor component production object, which is provided with two feed devices, each of which can be used to guide a fluid medium over a respective surface of the object which is to be cleaned so that a first and a second surface of the object can be cleaned simultaneously, the first surface being on a separate plane than the second surface, at least two gas feed devices for introducing a cleaning gas which is under superatmospheric pressure opening out into a cleaning chamber one of the at least two gas feed devices having an outlet for directing a gas stream onto the first surface of the object and another of the at least two gas feed devices having an outlet for directing a gas stream onto the second surface of the object, where the first and second surfaces are to be cleaned, the gas streams impinging the first and second surfaces of the object at an angle of less than 90°, at least two suction means, by means of which gas which has been introduced into the cleaning chamber can be discharged, leading out of the cleaning chamber, and a support being present for holding the object in the cleaning chamber, in which apparatus at least one object positioning gap in the cleaning chamber, at least two ionization means, in each case one ionization means being located between in each case one directing means and one suction means, wherein each of the two ionization means is separated from the directing means.
