    Abstract: A wafer transfer assembly and method of using the assembly to transfer device wafers between processing tools in a manufacturing process are described herein. The assembly comprises a wafer transfer disk, an end effector configured to receive and support the wafer transfer disk, and an elongated handle extending from the end effector. The wafer transfer disk comprises a wafer-engaging surface configured to support a debonded device wafer placed on the wafer transfer assembly with the device surface adjacent the wafer-engaging surface. The wafer-engaging surface has non-stick properties, and yields a low bonding strength interface between the wafer-engaging surface and device surface. The resulting transfer stack can be transported to other processing tools for additional processing of the debonded device wafer, followed by separating the debonded device wafer and the wafer transfer disk without damaging the device wafer.

    Abstract: A novel interchangeable spin chuck system is provided that allows the user to quickly change substrate sizes and spin chuck styles without any extra tools. This system has a two-piece design and overcomes many of the drawbacks of previous spin chuck designs, such as difficulty in seating the spin chuck and ensuring that the spin chuck is at a consistent flatness and height. Furthermore, this spin chuck system allows the spin chucks to be manufactured at a lower cost. Thus, rather than restricting users to “make do” with incorrect spin chucks due to budget limitations, this economical design gives users access to a wider range of spin chuck sizes and styles.
