An apparatus includes a casing configured to be detachably mounted on a workpiece. The casing includes a first opening configured to expose a portion of the workpiece; a first support member coupled to the casing and constructed to move along a first axis through the casing and rotate around the first axis; a second support member coupled to the first support member and constructed to move along a second axis perpendicular to the first axis; an arm pivotally coupled to the second support member and constructed to rotate around a third axis perpendicular to the first axis and the second axis; and a cleaning head attached to the arm and constructed to rotate around a longitudinal axis of the arm. The casing includes a first plate and a second plate opposite to the first plate, wherein the cleaning head is configured to extend outside the casing through the first opening.

Apparatus for cleaning semiconductor equipment

An embodiment is an apparatus, such as a plasma chamber. The apparatus includes chamber walls and a chamber window defining an enclosed space. A chamber window is disposed between a plasma antenna and a substrate support. A gas delivery source is mechanically coupled to the chamber window. The gas delivery source comprises a gas injector having a passageway, a window at a first end of the passageway, and a nozzle at a second end of the passageway. The nozzle of the gas delivery source is disposed in the enclosed space. A fastening device is mechanically coupled to the gas delivery source. The fastening device is adjustable to adjust a sealing force against the gas injector.
