    摘要: An apparatus and method for testing large area substrates is described. The large area substrates include patterns of displays and contact points electrically coupled to the displays on the large area substrate. The apparatus includes a prober assembly that is movable relative to the large area substrate and/or the contact points, and may be configured to test various patterns of displays and contact points on various large area substrates. The prober assembly is also configured to test fractional sections of the large area substrate positioned on a testing table, and the prober assembly may be configured for different display and contact point patterns without removing the prober assembly from the testing table.

    摘要: An improved prober for an electronic devices test system is provided. The prober is “configurable,” meaning that it can be adapted for different device layouts and substrate sizes. The prober generally includes a frame, at least one prober bar having a first end and a second end, a frame connection mechanism that allows for ready relocation of the prober bar to the frame at selected points along the frame, and a plurality of electrical contact pins along the prober bar for placing selected electronic devices in electrical communication with a system controller during testing. In one embodiment, the prober is be used to test devices such as thin film transistors on a glass substrate. Typically, the glass substrate is square, and the frame is also square. In this way, “x” and “y” axes are defined by the frame. The electrical pins may be movable along the axial length of the prober bars, or may be selectively pushed down to contact selected contact pads on the substrate.

    摘要: The present invention comprises a system and method for transferring a substrate into and out of a chamber configured to accommodate multiple substrates. In one embodiment, the system comprises a chamber housing that includes a first substrate support tray and a second substrate support tray independently movable along a vertical axis, and a substrate conveyor movable into and out of the chamber housing. The first substrate support tray and the second substrate support tray are movable to a position where a portion of the second substrate support tray is received in the first substrate support tray.
