Abstract

A cleaning process for cleaning CVD units is disclosed. In the cleaning process, alkaline earth metal and/or metal-containing process residues, which form an amorphous film on reactor walls, are removed using a dry etching medium containing free diketones at a greatly reduced pressure and an elevated temperature. In the process, the free diketones react with the alkaline earth metals or metals to form volatile complexes.
