Jae Pyo LEE has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 12285841
    Abstract: Disclosed are an automatic abrasion compensation system of a lower plate and a wafer lapping apparatus having the same. The automatic abrasion compensation system reduces wafer misloading and errors in wafer loading inspection occurring when the distance between the lower plate and a transfer robot is gradually increased due to abrasion of the lower plate during a lapping process. The automatic abrasion compensation system includes an ultrasonic sensor provided on the transfer robot, a jig located directly under the ultrasonic sensor and mounted on the lower plate, a controller configured to acquire measurement distance information by measuring a distance from the jig through the ultrasonic sensor, to compare the measurement distance information with set reference distance information and to generate an adjustment control signal, and a driver configured to automatically adjust a Z-axis position of the transfer robot depending on the adjustment control signal transmitted by the controller.

  • Patent number: 10525568
    Abstract: The wafer polishing system is disclosed. The wafer polishing system may comprise a polishing unit; a slurry distribution unit mounted on the polishing unit and distributing a slurry flowing into the polishing unit for wafer polishing; a slurry tank connected to the slurry distribution unit and storing the slurry; a slurry pump connected to the polishing unit and the slurry tank for transferring the slurry from the slurry tank to the polishing unit; a first circulation line in which one side is connected to the slurry tank; a second circulation line in which one side is connected to the other side of the first circulation line and the other side is connected to the slurry distribution unit; and a cleaning liquid supply unit connected to the second circulation line for supplying a cleaning liquid flowing through the second circulation line.
