摘要:
Provided is a deposition device which can secure work space without vertical overlap of the deposition unit and the units upstream and downstream thereof. This deposition device is provided with a deposition unit (16), and upstream and downstream units (14, 18) arranged to the left and right thereof. The deposition unit (16) is provided with: a deposition roller (70); multiple guide rollers (72); a main chamber (64) having a deposition roller housing unit (74) and, thereabove, a guide roller housing unit (76); first and second process chambers (66, 68) which house multiple deposition process devices (84, 86) to the left and right of the deposition roller housing unit (74); and process chamber support units (104) for supporting the first and second process chambers (66, 68) so as to allow the first and second process chambers (66, 68) to move between a regular position for deposition and a retracted position retracted to the left or right, and between the retracted position and an exposure position separated in the front/back direction.

A charged-particle beam system is offered which is equipped with a Z-motion mechanism (15,38,50) to enable tomography. The Z-motion mechanism includes a rotary disk (23) having three tapering surfaces (23b) on which balls (25,26) are nested. The rotary disk is rotated via a worm gear (24) to cause the balls to go upward along the tapering surfaces. This pushes an overlying elevatable disk (22) upward, i.e., in the Z-direction. Consequently, the specimen stage (13) is pushed up in the Z-direction.

The invention relates to a nanorobot module with a measuring device for measuring spatial surface properties with a measuring in the centimetre range and a resolution in the nanometre range which can be arranged in a vacuum chamber, for example, the vacuum chamber of a microscope. In addition to the integration of the nanorobot module in a vacuum chamber, the invention further relates to the automation of the module in the chamber system, in particular, the connection of the control of the nanorobot system and chamber system by providing an interface between both systems. The invention also relates to a mechatronic exchange adapter for the flexible fixing of nanorobot modules within a vacuum chamber, in particular an exchange adapter which preferably connects a nanorobot module in a working stage and mechanically locates the same with high precision without play.

The invention relates to a motorized manipulator for positioning a TEM specimen holder with sub-micron resolution parallel to a y-z plane and rotating the specimen holder in the y-z plane, the manipulator comprising a base (2), and attachment means ( 30 ) for attaching the specimen holder to the manipulator, characterized in that the manipulator further comprises at least three nano-actuators (3 a , 3 b , 3 c ) mounted on the base, each nano-actuator showing a tip (4 a , 4 b , 4 c ), the at least three tips defining the y-z plane, each tip capable of moving with respect to the base in the y-z plane; a platform (5) in contact with the tips of the nano-actuators; and clamping means (6) for pressing the platform against the tips of the nano-actuators; as a result of which the nano-actuators can rotate the platform with respect to the base in the y-z plane and translate the platform parallel to the y-z plane.

It is an object to provide a compact, lightweight, and inexpensive stage apparatus. A stage apparatus for moving a stage (2) in a predetermined direction includes a stage accelerating/decelerating thrust generation unit (9) arranged along the moving direction, a stage speed control thrust generation unit (8) arranged to be parallel to the stage accelerating/decelerating thrust generation unit, an accelerating unit (29a) for generating a stage accelerating thrust at a portion corresponding to the stage accelerating interval of the accelerating/decelerating thrust generation unit (9), a decelerating unit (29b) for generating a stage decelerating thrust at a portion corresponding to the stage decelerating interval of the accelerating/decelerating thrust generation unit (9), and a speed control unit (28) for controlling the stage thrust generated by the speed control thrust generation unit (8) at least within a predetermined range between the accelerating interval and the decelerating interval.
摘要:
An automated workpiece processing apparatus including a processing section including a processing module configured for processing a workpiece at a process location, a transport module including a first shuttle stage, a second shuttle stage independent of the first stage, and an end effector connected to at least one of the first and second stages, the end effector being configured to hold and transport the workpiece into and out of the processing module, and having a range of motion, defined by a combination of the first and second stage, extending from a workpiece holding station outside the processing module to the processing location inside the processing module so the end effector defines a processing stage of the processing module, and an automated loading and transport section including a load port module through which workpieces are loaded into the automated loading and transport section, and being communicably connected to the transport module.
