  • Patent number: 8573264
    Abstract: A reticle pod for storing reticles, into the gas channel of partition of which gas is filled through a gas inlet, wherein strong gas flow is formed around the pellicle film and the pellicle film expands outward in accordance with the Bernoulli's principle; when no gas is filled in through the gas inlet, the pellicle film contracts inward. Therefore, by turning on and shutting off the gas inlet valve, the pellicle film will be set in a breathing motion for the gas inside the pellicle film to be exchanged.

  • Publication number: 20130068656
    Abstract: A FOUP (front opening unified pod) is disposed with a plurality of supporting pieces, the positions of which are calibrated to be symmetrical for the supporting pieces to horizontally support wafers in the pod, and with an OHT pad (Overhead Hoist Transport pad), a major function of which is to evenly distribute the weight of the FOUP and the wafers so that the transportation of the FOUP and the wafers by the OHT head can be further stabilized and more weight can be loaded to meet the demands of the process.
