  • Patent number: 11965070
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to the field of electronic materials, and in particular to a composite film of fluorinated polybenzoxazole (6FPBO) and triple-shelled mesoporous silica hollow spheres, and to its preparation and use. The composite film comprises fluorinated polybenzoxazole as a matrix and amino-functionalized triple-shelled mesoporous silica hollow spheres which are dispersed in the fluorinated polybenzoxazole matrix. A mass ratio of (amino-functionalized triple-shelled mesoporous silica hollow spheres)/(fluorinated polybenzoxazole) is 1/100 to 5/100. The composite film has excellent thermal stability and a lower dielectric constant.

  • Patent number: 11383940
    Abstract: A robotic manipulator for handling a cassette and an automated cassette transport device are disclosed, the device including a mechanical arm (1), an end actuator (2) at an end of the mechanical arm (1) and a vision-based locating assembly (3) on the end actuator (2). On the one hand, the vision-based locating assembly (3) can determine the position of a flange of the cassette, thereby identifying the cassette. In other words, the cassette can be identified based on a feature of the cassette itself. This dispense with a separate locating marker while improving cassette measuring and handling accuracy. On the other hand, transportation of the cassette is allowed by complementary retention of its flange on a recessed surface of the end actuator (2).

  • Patent number: 11107717
    Abstract: A cassette transport device is disclosed which includes a smart cart, a base expansion frame mounted on the smart cart and a cassette-loading frame fixed to the base expansion frame. The cassette-loading frame is partitioned into several segments each accommodating a plurality of cassette trays. Each of the cassette trays defines, on its surface, a first trough and a second trough in the first trough. The first trough is configured to retain a cassette of a first size, and the second trough is configured to retain a cassette of a second size. With the first and second troughs, each of the cassette trays is able to retain a cassette of either the first or second size, making the cassette transport device possible to be used in transportation of the both types of cassettes with a high yield. Moreover, the smart cart is capable of automated transportation without human intervention or track construction while enabling savings in transportation cost, time and labor.

  • Publication number: 20200219743
    Abstract: A wafer transfer cassette and an automated wafer transfer system. The wafer transfer cassette includes a wafer storage frame configured to accommodate wafers, a base, a casing, a cover and a rotary coupling mechanism. The base and the casing are fixedly connected to each other and together define a cavity in which the wafer storage frame is accommodated. The casing defines an opening through which a wafer can be placed in or taken out. The cover is pivotally coupled to the casing by means of the rotary coupling mechanism so that when the rotary coupling mechanism is rotated, the cover slides on the base and thus opens or closes the opening.

  • Patent number: 9195146
    Abstract: An interference exposure device, including: a light source (100) for providing an exposure light beam; a light homogenizer-collimator (200) for homogenizing and collimating the exposure light beam; an interference unit (300) including at least two gratings (303) for converting the exposure light beam into at least two coherent light beams and making the coherent light beams converge on a substrate surface to form thereon an interference exposure pattern, the gratings (303) each having a period and being distributed in correspondence with a desired exposure pattern; a driving and supporting means (406) for supporting and carrying the substrate to move with at least three degrees of freedom; and a measuring element (500) for measuring an angle between coordinate systems of the interference unit (300) and the means (406) to adjust an exposure position of the means (406) based on a measurement result of the measuring element (500) before exposing the substrate.
