Piranha is a heated strongly oxidizing mixture of sulfuric acid and hydrogen peroxide used to remove organic material from the surface of samples.

Chemicals

Locations

Characterization

When the two chemicals are mixed a very exothermic reaction will occur. It will heat to 120-150C almost instantly. This is hot enough to soften many plastics, including the deck of the benches.

Etch Rate

Will clean organic residue off of wafer in approximately 10-20 min
