    摘要: A wafer holder assembly includes first and second main structural members from which first and second wafer-holding arms extend. The first arm is secured to the main structural members by a graphite distal retaining member. The second arm is pivotally biased to a wafer-hold position by a graphite bias member. This arrangement provides a conductive path from the wafer to the assembly for inhibiting electrical discharges from the wafer during the ion implantation process. The assembly can further include additional graphite retaining members for maintaining the structural integrity of the assembly during the extreme conditions associated with SIMOX wafer processing without the need for potentially wafer-contaminating adhesives and conventional fasteners. The wafer-contacting pins at the distal end of the arms can be formed from silicon. The silicon pins can be coated with titanium nitride to enhance electrical contact with the wafer and to provide an abrasion resistant surface. The pins can have a limited profile to minimize the amount of pin material proximate the wafer for reducing the likelihood of electrical arcing from the wafer to the pin.

    摘要: An electrostatic chuck includes a layer having a plurality of protrusions to support a workpiece, wherein at least a portion of the layer has a first plurality of the plurality of protrusions. The first plurality of protrusions is spaced to geometrically form a pattern of hexagons. The first plurality of protrusions may be spaced an equal distance from adjacent protrusions and the equal distance may be about 4.0 millimeters from a center of one protrusion to a center of another protrusion. The present disclosure reduces peak mechanical stress levels conventionally present along an edge of each protrusion. Reducing such mechanical stress levels helps reduce backside damage to a supported workpiece, which in turn can reduce the generation of unwanted particles caused by such damage.
