  • Wafer handling system
    Patent number: 8028978
    Abstract: A semiconductor wafer processing system has a carrier including wafer slots. A process robot engages the carrier and installs the carrier into a rotor within a process chamber. The rotor has a tapered or stepped inside surface matching a tapered or stepped outside surface of the carrier. Wafer retainers on the carrier pivot to better secure wafers within the carrier.

  • Inflatable door seal
    Patent number: 6176934
    Abstract: A semiconductor article processor sprays processing chemicals on a semiconductor article or wafer within a chamber. A door with an inflatable resilient seal, seals the chamber closed during processing. A seal support on the door extends radially outwardly into the inflatable seal, to better hold the seal onto the door. Inflation pressures can be increased, and the accumulation of chemical residues around the inflatable seal are decreased. Consequently, the effectiveness and reliability of the inflatable seal is improved.
