Abstract:
A wafer carrier is described with independent isolated heater zones. In one example, the carrier has a puck to carry a workpiece for fabrication processes, a heater plate having a plurality of thermally isolated blocks each thermally coupled to the puck, and each having a heater to heat a respective block of the heater plate, and a cooling plate fastened to and thermally coupled to the heater plate, the cooling plate having a cooling channel to carry a heat transfer fluid to transfer heat from the cooling plate.
