Abstract

A spraying method of a dispense system for preventing residue, wherein a precise amount of stream fluid is supplied from a fluid supply through a main tube to a nozzle, and the precise amount of stream fluid is sprayed onto a surface of a wafer. A sub-tube system, which comprises a bypass valve and a pin hole is utilized to refill the fluid to a void. A metering valve is used as a suck-back system to retrieve the remaining fluid in the main tube and prevent residue from occurring.
