  • Patent number: 11009801
    Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide a system, a software application, and methods of a lithography process that provide at least one of the ability to decrease the stabilization time and write an exposure pattern into a photoresist on a substrate compensating for the change in the total pitch over a stabilization time. One embodiment of the system includes a slab, a stage disposed over the slab, a pair of supports disposed on the slab, a processing apparatus, and a chiller system. The pair of supports support a pair of tracks and the stage is configured to move along the pair of tracks. The processing apparatus has an apparatus support coupled to the slab and a processing unit supported by the apparatus support. The processing unit has a plurality of image projection systems. The chiller system has at least one fluid channel disposed in each track of the pair of tracks.

  • Publication number: 20200011652
    Abstract: Processing systems and methods used in the manufacturing of flat panel displays (FPDs) are provided herein. In one embodiment, a processing system features a motion stage movably disposed on a base surface, one or more X-position interferometers, and a plurality of Y-position interferometers. The X-position interferometers include an X-position mirror fixedly coupled to the motion stage and an X-axis stationary module fixedly coupled a non-moving surface of processing system. Each of the plurality of Y-position interferometers include one of a first or second Y-position mirror fixedly coupled to the motion stage in orthogonal relationship to the one or more X-position mirrors and one of a first or a second Y-axis stationary module fixedly coupled to a non-moving surface of the processing system. Here, each of the Y-axis stationary modules is positioned to direct coherent radiation towards a respective Y-position mirror when the Y-position interferometer thereof is in an active arrangement.

  • Patent number: 8701226
    Abstract: A patient hoist is provided on a trolley which tides along a track, with the hoist being powered by a conductor extending along the track. A contact carrier is loosely fit within the trolley, and it bears a contact which elastically biased against the track conductor, with die contact being in electrical communication with the hoist: The contact carrier is tree to laterally displace with respect to the trolley so that it (and its contact) follows the contour of the track, with the contact remaining in electrical communication with the track conductor.
