摘要: A holding apparatus, in particular a chuck, for a substrate comprises a main body with a upper side, a carrier element arranged in a recess of the main body so as to be vertically movable such that it can be adjusted between a protruding loading position and a retracted clamping position, the carrier element comprising a support surface for placement of the substrate. The support surface has a smaller diameter than the main body. A lifting element lifts the carrier element to the loading position. The carrier element seals the recess such that a sealed cavity is provided between the main body and the carrier element, which cavity can have a negative pressure applied thereto which counteracts the effect of the lifting element.

摘要: The invention relates to a positioning device for positioning a substrate, in particular a wafer, comprising: a process chamber; a base body; a carrier element which comprises a support for supporting the substrate, the carrier element being arranged above the base body and formed movable in terms of distance from the base body; and a holder for an additional substrate, in particular an additional wafer or a mask, the holder being arranged opposite the carrier element; wherein there is, between the base body and the carrier element, a sealed-off cavity to which a pressure, in particular a negative pressure, can be applied so as to prevent undesired movement of the carrier element as a result of the action of an external force.

摘要: An industrial-scale apparatus, system, and method for handling precisely aligned and centered semiconductor wafer pairs for wafer-to-wafer aligning and bonding applications includes an end effector having a frame member and a floating carrier connected to the frame member with a gap formed therebetween, wherein the floating carrier has a semi-circular interior perimeter. The centered semiconductor wafer pairs are positionable within a processing system using the end effector under robotic control. The centered semiconductor wafer pairs are bonded together without the presence of the end effector in the bonding device.

摘要: A baking device for a wafer coated with a coating containing a solvent is described, having a baking chamber, a support for the wafer, an inlet for a purge gas, and an evacuation for the purge gas charged with solvent evaporated from the coating. The inlet is formed as a diffusion element arranged above the wafer so as to admit the purge gas evenly over substantially the entire surface of the wafer, and the evacuation is formed as an evacuation ring which radially surrounds the diffusion element and is arranged at a ceiling of the baking chamber.

摘要: A method for curing at least in part a photoresist applied to a substrate comprises the following steps: The substrate coated with the photoresist is arranged on a support. The photoresist is subjected to a suitable temperature for curing the photoresist for a first predetermined time period. After the first predetermined time period has passed, the substrate is lifted from the support, rotated, re-placed onto the support and subjected to a suitable temperature for curing the photoresist for a second predetermined time period. This method can be performed with a device for curing at least in part a photoresist applied to a substrate, comprising a chamber, a support which is arranged in the chamber and on which the substrate can be arranged, and a rotating device for rotating the substrate between a first and a second phase of the curing of the photoresist.

摘要: Described methods and apparatus provide a controlled perturbation to an adhesive bond between a device wafer and a carrier wafer. The controlled perturbation, which can be mechanical, chemical, thermal, or radiative, facilitates the separation of the two wafers without damaging the device wafer. The controlled perturbation initiates a crack either within the adhesive joining the two wafers, at an interface within the adhesive layer (such as between a release layer and the adhesive), or at a wafer/adhesive interface. The crack can then be propagated using any of the foregoing methods, or combinations thereof, used to initiate the crack.

摘要: The present application describes a method and a device for keeping the mask dimensions of a mask (6) constant in the mask plane in lithography. The mask (6) is heated due to the exposure during lithography. By means of thermal and/or mechanical methods, the dimensions of the mask (6) are kept constant. It is possible to use additional methods or devices, e.g. an air cooler (17) or an air heater (17), in order to prevent a change in the mask dimensions in the mask plane.
