Abstract

A method of making an integrated circuit is provided. The method includes providing a substrate having a photosensitive layer. The photosensitive layer is exposed to a radiation beam. The exposed photosensitive layer is developed in a first chamber. In the first chamber, a cleaning process is performed on the developed photosensitive layer. The cleaning process includes using a rinse solution including at least one of ozone, hydrogen peroxide, and oxalic acid.
