  • Publication number: 20020066806
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a nozzle and adjust module of chemicals when wafers are processed during the IC manufacturing process. After wafers are loaded on a chuck of a reaction chamber, five chemicals required for the manufacturing process are transported into the passages, and are sprayed on the surfaces of rotating wafers via different nozzles. The centrifugal effect due to the rotation of a main motor is exploited to coat the chemicals on the whole wafer quickly and uniformly. The present invention can apply to both closed and open reaction chambers. The spray head of the present invention has a specially designed angle, and has level adjusting and height adjusting functions so that high flexibility in the manufacturing process can be obtained.

  • Patent number: 6398033
    Abstract: A wafer container is constructed to include a shell, a holder frame, two retaining blocks, and a handle. The shell has a coupling unit at the periphery. The retaining blocks are fastened to the holder frame, forming first pivot structure. The handle is provided with second pivot structure adapted for coupling to the first pivot structure for enabling the handle to be turned relative to the holder frame through an angle between the operative position convenient for carrying by hand, and the collapsed, non-operative position to minimize space occupation.

  • Patent number: 6220771
    Abstract: A wafer backside protection apparatus includes a motor, a vacuum chuck, an annular seat and a top cover. The motor has an output shaft upon which the chuck is mounted. The chuck has a front surface to suck and hold a wafer from its backside. The chuck has a backside in which a water guard ring and a plurality of slant bores are formed. The slant bores run from the water guard ring through the wafer front surface. The annular seat is located below the chuck and has two symmetrical slant nozzles projecting toward motor rotating direction for ejecting protection liquid to the water guard ring. Protection liquid may be spun and splashed out through the slant bores to form a protection liquid film between the chuck and the wafer backside due to centrifugal force resulting from chuck and wafer rotation driven by the motor. The protection liquid film may protect wafer backside from chemical erosion and contamination resulting from wafer production process.
