Abstract

The invention provides an etching solution managing apparatus, a dissolved metal concentration measuring apparatus and a dissolved metal concentration measuring method that can monitor the concentration of the etching solution and the concentration of the dissolved metal so that a replenisher is automatically supplied in a concentration fixed way and the dissolved metal is separated and recycled. The etching solution managing apparatus comprises a first property value measurement mechanism that measures a first property value related to the acid concentration of the etching solution; a second property value measurement mechanism that measures a second property value related to the concentration of the dissolved metal; a replenisher transmission controlling mechanism that controls the transmission of the supplied replenisher based on the relation between the acid concentration and the first property value and the measurement result of the first property value; a dissolved metal recycling and removing mechanism hat recycle and remove the dissolved metal based on the relation between the concentration of the dissolved metal and the second property value and the measurement result of the second property value.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an etchant management device, a dissolved metal concentration measurement device, and a dissolved metal concentration measurement method, and more particularly to an etchant for adjusting the concentration of an etchant whose concentration fluctuates over time due to etching and recovering and removing dissolved metals A management device, a device for measuring dissolved metal concentration, and a method for measuring dissolved metal concentration. Background technique [0002] In etching in the manufacturing process of a semiconductor or a liquid crystal substrate, an etchant having a liquid composition appropriately adjusted according to an object to be etched is circulated or stored in an etching tank for repeated use. When the etching object is a metal compound film such as a metal film, a metal alloy film, or a metal oxide film, etchant mainly uses an etching solution composed of an acid or an oxidizing agent, or ...
