Abstract

A cleaning liquid for semiconductor devices comprising 1.0 to 5% by weight of a fluorine compound of the formula R.sub.4 NF, wherein R is a hydrogen atom or a C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl group, 72 to 80% by weight of an organic solvent soluble in water, and the remaining amount being water. The cleaning liquid can rapidly and completely at a low temperature remove resist residues left remaining after dry etching and ashing in the wiring step in the production of semiconductor integrated circuits, and the cleaning liquid does not corrode wiring materials.
