摘要:
A cup wash disk jig employed to clean photoresist from a spin-on chamber, receives cleaning solvent from both the bottom and the top, enhancing cleaning effectiveness. The cup wash disk includes a first set of channels allowing fluid communication between a hole positioned in a top surface of the cup wash disk jig, and a plurality of orifices distributed about the edge of the jig. Solvent is applied to the top surface of the jig, for example from an existing reduce resist control (RRC) nozzle normally utilized to dispense resist material. The solvent is flowed through these channels and ejected from the disk sides through the orifice, thereby facilitating removal of resist residue from coater cup portions of the chamber. Solvent may also be applied to an opening in a bottom surface of the jig, for example from a back rinse nozzle, to flow through a second set of channels and be ejected through different jig edge orifices.

A calibration wafer may bear one or more different mark types to facilitate inspection of a lithography process. A first mark type may be located on the outer peripheral portion of the wafer to indicate the desired boundary of an edge bead removal (EBR) region. A second mark type may be located on an outer peripheral portion of the wafer to indicate the desired boundary of a wafer edge expose region (WEE). A third mark type may indicate the border of a portion of the wafer expected to bear a wafer identification mark. A fourth mark type may be located at the center of the wafer to allow for precise and uniform application of liquid photoresist material to the calibration wafer. The calibration wafer may be employed in methods of rapidly and easily assessing the accuracy of various phases of photolithography processes.

A card-edge connector is provided for securing and electrically connecting an electronic card to a circuit board. The card-edge connector includes an insulating housing a pair of arms, and a pair of card-latching members. The insulating housing includes a receiving wall defining a slot there within. Each arm extends from ends of the receiving wall. A supporting base is disposed on and extending along a first side of each arm, and a guiding rail disposed on a second side of each arm. Furthermore, a fastener receiving passageway is disposed on each of an upper surface and a lower surface of each of the pair of arms.

摘要:
A method and apparatus to eliminate contaminants in a lithography process for fabrication of integrated circuit devices. The method includes depositing a photoresist material on surface of a semiconductor substrate. A purge gas flow is provided proximate to an optical element to prevent a vapor from the exposed photoresist material from coming into contact with the optical element. In one embodiment, the purge gas flows into a perforated and open ended enclosure in which the optical element is provided in the form of a lens. One open end of the enclosure is coupled to the lens and the other open end is positioned above the surface of the semiconductor substrate. Perforation of the enclosure facilitates movement of purge gas thereto, eliminating contact with the vapor from the developed resist and unwanted deposition of a solid contamination on the lens.
