Abstract: Methods for processing substrates are provided herein. In some embodiments, the method includes providing a substrate supported on a starting template; adhering a first superstrate to a first side of the substrate; separating the substrate with the superstrate from the starting template; determining if a useful life of the used template has been reached; and re-using the used template as a starting template if the useful life has not been reached.

Abstract: Apparatus for use in an inline substrate processing tool are provided herein. In some embodiments, a door for use in an inline substrate processing tool between a first and a second substrate processing module coupled to one another in a linear arrangement may include a reflective body disposed between two cover plates of substantially transparent material, configured to reflect light and heat energy into each of the at first and second substrate processing modules, wherein the door is selectively movable, via an actuator coupled to the door, between an open position that fluidly couples the first and second substrate processing modules to a closed position that isolates the first substrate processing module from the second substrate processing module.
