To reduce the consumption of chemicals and ultra pure water(UPW) in cleaning process used in device manufacturing, we proposed wet processes that use electrolytic ionized water(EIW), which is generated by electrolysis of a diluted electrolyte solution or UPW and systemically investicate the EIW\`s characteristics. EIW\`s pH values are increased in cathode chamber and decreased in anode chamber according to the electrolysis time and its varied ratio is reduced with time increasement. The variation of pH and ORP is increased accordin to the applied voltage until critical voltage. But more than that voltage, the variation is decreased because of ion\`s scattering effect. When electrolyte is added, the effects of electrolysis is increased because electrolyte acts as catalyst. But when the density of electrolyte is increased more than critical value, ion\`s flowage is obstructed and the effects of electrolysis is decreased.
