    Abstract: A thin film deposition apparatus according to an embodiment includes a chamber, a deposition source disposed in a chamber and that supplies a deposition material to the substrate, a mask assembly comprising pattern holes through which the deposition material passes, and an electrostatic chuck facing the mask assembly and that fixes the substrate. The electrostatic chuck comprises a body that supports the substrate, an insulating layer disposed on the body, a first electrode disposed in the insulating layer and spaced apart from the body by a first distance, a second electrode disposed in the insulating layer and spaced apart from the body by a second distance, and a conductive layer disposed in the insulating layer and spaced apart from the body by a third distance. The first electrode and the second electrode are supplied with different voltages, and the third distance is greater than the first distance.

    Abstract: A system may include a support surface for supporting a substrate, a plurality of first passages arranged to distribute flows of a first gas to establish a gas bearing to float the substrate above the support surface, and a plurality of second passages arranged to distribute flows of a second gas to convey the substrate along the support surface. A method may include floating a substrate above a support surface of a substrate support apparatus via a gas bearing; and while floating the substrate, conveying the substrate along the support surface by flowing gas toward a surface of the substrate and in a nonperpendicular direction relative to the surface of the substrate.

    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a method for changing a workpiece carrier device in a production plant for coating substrates. The method comprises the steps of:



    displacing a workpiece carrier device by means of a robot from a supply zone to a processing zone;
    releasably coupling the workpiece carrier device to the production plant via a coupling interface of the workpiece carrier device by further displacing the workpiece carrier device by means of the robot,
    wherein for releasably coupling the workpiece carrier device to the production plant, a connecting arm of the workpiece carrier device is coupled to a connection section of the production plant, thereby fixing the connecting arm in a fixed position relative to the connection section, and
    wherein for releasably coupling the workpiece carrier device to the production plant, a drive shaft of the workpiece carrier device is coupled to a driving shaft of the production plant, thereby connecting the drive shaft to the driving shaft in a rotatably drivable manner.
