摘要： A sample processing apparatus includes a sample carrier receiving region configured to receive a sample carrier. The sample carrier includes at least one sample channel carrying at least one sample, at least one agent chamber carrying at least one agent to be moved to the at least one sample channel to facilitate processing of the at least one sample, and the at least one agent chamber includes at least one chamber cover covering at least one opening of the at least one agent chamber, inhibiting flow of the at least one agent from the at least one agent chamber to the at least one sample channel. The sample processing apparatus further includes a chamber opener configured to facilitate opening the at least one chamber cover. The sample processing apparatus further includes a fluid mover that moves the agent out of the at least one agent chamber after the at least one chamber cover is opened and into the at least one sample channel.

摘要： A micro channel device includes at least one sample processing region (108) that supports a sample for processing by a sample processing apparatus, at least one chamber (120, 126) that stores a fluid, at least one channel (202, 204, 206, 302, 402), and an interface (116) configured to interface with the processing apparatus. Moisture removed from compressed air, which is employed to move the sample and/or a processing agent through the at least one channel, is received by the interface and routed via the at least one channel to the at least one chamber.

摘要： An electrostatic chuck and method for clamping and de-clamping a workpiece is provided. The ESC comprises a clamping plate having a clamping surface, and one or more electrodes. An electric potential applied to the one or more electrodes selectively clamps the workpiece to the clamping surface. An arc pin operably coupled to the clamping plate and a power source provides an arc for penetrating an insulating layer of the workpiece. The arc pin is selectively connected to an electrical ground, wherein upon removal of the insulative layer of the workpiece, the arc pin provides an electrical ground connection to the workpiece.
