Abstract

A process of removing photoresist, previously subjected to ion implantation, from the surface of a workpiece. The process involves contacting the workpiece with a composition which includes liquid or supercritical carbon dioxide and between about 2% and about 20% of an alkanol having the structural formula CxX2x+1OH, where X is fluorine, hydrogen or mixtures thereof; and x is an integer of 1 to 8, said percentages being by volume, based on the total weight of the composition.
