    Abstract: A wafer carrier purge apparatus, an automated mechanical handling system, and a method of handling a wafer carrier during integrated circuit fabrication are provided. The wafer carrier purge apparatus includes a purge plate adapted for insertion into a carrier storage position. The purge plate includes a gas port and a gas nozzle in fluid communication with the gas port. The gas port receives a gas flow. The gas nozzle is adapted to contact an inlet port of a wafer carrier. The purge plate further includes a vacuum port and a vacuum nozzle in fluid communication with the vacuum port, spaced from the gas nozzle. The vacuum nozzle is adapted to capture gas that escapes from the wafer carrier through an outlet port of the wafer carrier. The purge plate is separate and removable from the carrier storage position.

    Abstract: A system for separately handling different size FOUPs includes an end effector having a surface thereon for supporting a FOUP. The end effector and surface is configured to support different size FOUPs. A fixture or means for engaging and maintaining a FOUP, of different size FOUPs, included to position and maintain each of a different size FOUP on the end effector during transport thereof. A shelf is configured to receive each of said different size FOUPs. The end effector is thus capable of transporting either a first size FOUP or a second, smaller size FOUP.

    Abstract: A method for operating a material handling system including an overhead rack defining a plurality of storage positions, first and second side rails disposed above the overhead rack, a first cross rail movably coupled to the first and second side rails, and a first transport vehicle movably coupled to the first cross rail includes positioning the first transport vehicle above at least one interior window defined in the overhead rack. At least a portion of the first transport vehicle is descended through the interior window to interface with a first load port of a first tool disposed below the overhead rack. The first transport vehicle is positioned above at least one periphery window defined in the overhead rack. At least a portion of the first transport vehicle is descended through the periphery window to interface with a second load port of a second tool disposed below the overhead rack.

    Abstract: Rechargeable wafer carrier systems and methods are provided. A rechargeable wafer carrier system includes, for instance, a housing for holding at least one wafer and at least one electronics system therein, a rechargeable power source operably connected to the housing for powering the at least one electronics system, and a charging interface for receiving a supply of power for charging the rechargeable power source. The housing may be configured for transport within an automated material handling system. Also provided are methods of charging a rechargeable wafer carrier system, which includes, for instance, providing a rechargeable wafer carrier system having at least one electronics system and a rechargeable power source, operably connecting the rechargeable wafer carrier system to a charging base, and supplying power from the charging base to the rechargeable power source.
