摘要: A multi-color dielectric coating is formed using interleaved layers of dielectric material, having alternating refractive index, to create reflections at selected wavelengths, thus appearing as different colors. Etching of selected layers at selected locations changes the color appearance of the etched locations, thus generating a coating having multiple colors. The thicknesses of the layers are chosen such that the path-length differences for reflections from different high-index layers are integer multiples of the wavelength for which the coating is designed.

摘要: A system for processing substrates in plasma chambers, such that all substrates transport and loading/unloading operations are performed in atmospheric environment, but processing is performed in vacuum environment. The substrates are transported throughout the system on carriers. The system's chambers are arranged linearly, such that carriers move from one chamber directly to the next. A conveyor, placed above or below the system's chambers, returns the carriers to the system's entry area after processing is completed. Loading and unloading of substrates may be performed at one side of the system, or loading can be done at the entry side and unloading at the exit side.

摘要: Disclosed is a substrate processing system which enables combined static and pass-by processing. Also, a system architecture is provided, which reduces footprint size. The system is constructed such that the substrates are processed therein vertically, and each chamber has a processing source attached to one sidewall thereof, wherein the other sidewall backs to a complementary processing chamber. The chamber system can be milled from a single block of metal, e.g., aluminum, wherein the block is milled from both sides, such that a wall remains and separates each two complementary processing chambers.

摘要: Disclosed is a substrate processing system with a magnetic conduit configuration to improve the movement of a substrate carrier within the system. The configuration specifically provides for safe, secure movement of a carrier between multiple levels of a substrate processing system by using magnetic conduits to redirect magnetic forces created by a linear motor, permitting the linear motor to be positioned outside of the system and in a location that will not interfere with the movement of the carrier.

摘要: A grid for minimizing effects of ion divergence in plasma ion implant. The plasma grid is made of a flat plate having a plurality of holes, wherein the holes are arranged in a plurality of rows and a plurality of columns thereby forming beamlets of ions that diverge in one direction. A mask is used to form the implanted shapes on the wafer, wherein the holes in the mask are oriented orthogonally to the direction of beamlet divergence.

摘要: System and method to align a substrate under a shadow mask. A substrate holder has alignment mechanism, such as rollers, that is made to abut against an alignment straight edge. The substrate is then aligned with respect to the straight edge and is chucked to the substrate holder. The substrate holder is then transported into a vacuum processing chamber, wherein it is made to abut against a mask straight edge to which the shadow mask is attached and aligned to. Since the substrate was aligned to an alignment straight edge, and since the mask is aligned to the mask straight edge that is precisely aligned to the alignment straight edge, the substrate is perfectly aligned to the mask.
