Abstract: An improved chemical mechanical polishing retaining ring. A representative embodiment comprises a base portion made from a wear-resistant plastic material, and an upper portion, or backbone portion, made from a stiffer and more wear resistant material. One of the base or backbone portion is preferably overmolded onto the other. The base portion can be generally defined by a flat pad-contacting surface, an outer surface, and an inner surface. The base portion can additionally include channels extending from the outer surface to the inner surface to facilitate transfer of slurry to and from the substrate to be polished during the process. One or both of the base portion or backbone portion further includes a plurality of circular ribs that serve to create additional bonding surface with the overmolded material. The retaining ring may additionally includes a plurality of bosses with threaded insert holes by which the retaining ring is attached to a chemical mechanical polishing system.

Abstract: A flat panel substrate container provides a microenvironment for safely storing and allowing horizontal removal through a front door. In an embodiment of the invention, a robust shelf system has a plurality of stacked shelves that have a cantilevered state with the door open and a non-cantilevered state with the door closed. The container may be generally rectilinear in shape and conforming to the shape of the substrate panels. The container has an open front with a closed top wall, closed bottom wall, closed left side wall, closed right side wall, and closed back side wall. A plurality of shelves are secured to the back side wall and extend forwardly in a cantilevered fashion. In an embodiment of the invention, the shelves may be generally elongate slender shelf members formed of aluminum extrusions or assemblies that are arranged in two columns with a pair of such members provided for each substrate and defining a slot. Also inwardly extending edge supports are provided at the left side wall and right side wall for edge support of the substrates. In an embodiment of the invention, the elongate shelf members each have one of a pair of male and female portion that join as the door is closed to effectively "uncantilever" the elongate shelf members as the door closes the open front. All of the shelf members and the substrates thereon may be fixed into position at the end opposite the cantilevered connection to the container portion. The container may have a feature for overhead transport, such as lifting brackets, static dissipation features, and latching features.

Abstract: A wafer container providing improved wafer restraint during physical shock events. In embodiments of the invention, a secondary wafer restraint structure defining a plurality of notches is interposed between opposing wafer restraint members on the door of the container. The notches may be defined by one or more converging edges or surfaces meeting at a junction. The junctions are positioned so as to align with the wafer receiving portions of each opposing pair of wafer restraint member so that when the door is fully sealingly engaged with the enclosure of the container, the edge of the wafer is contacting the junction. In this position, any vertical movement of the wafer due to shock imparted to the container causes the wafer to contact the converging surfaces or edges, thereby limiting such movement. The positioning of the secondary wafer restraint structure between and proximate opposing fingers of the primary wafer restraint limits deflection of the wafer between support points and thereby further inhibits the wafer from “jumping” out of the supports and cross-slotting.

Abstract: A container for holding a single wafer includes a door with a latching mechanism having a cam with a pair of opposing wings extending laterally therefrom. The cam is selectively rotatably shiftable between a first favored position wherein the wings are completely within the door enclosure to enable the door to be engaged and disengaged from the door frame, and a second favored position wherein the wings extend laterally outward from the door enclosure so as to engage in the latch recesses in the door frame when the door is engaged in the door frame. The cam wings may include a ramped portion thereon for drawing the door into closer engagement in the door frame when the cam is rotated from the first favored position to the second favored position. Also, the latching mechanism may further include a spring disposed to provide a biasing force for urging the latching mechanism toward each of the first and second favored positions, and soft-stop dampening springs for decelerating the cam in a controlled fashion at the first and second favored positions and for absorbing vibrations resulting from the collision of the cam with a fixed stop on the door chassis.

Abstract: A wafer container utilizes a rigid polymer tubular tower with slots and a "getter" therein for absorbing and filtering moisture and vapors within the wafer container. The tower preferably utilizes a purge grommet at the base of the container and may have a check valve therein to control the flow direction of gas (including air) into and out of the container and with respect to the tower. The tower is sealingly connected with the grommet. The tower may have a getter media piece rolled in an elongate circular fashion forming or shaped as a tube and disposed within the tower and may have axially extending. The media can provide active and/or passive filtration as well as having capabilities to be recharged. Front opening wafer containers for 300mm sized wafers generally have a pair of recesses on each of the left and right side in the inside rear of the container portions. These recesses are preferably utilized for elongate towers, such towers extending substantially from a bottom wafer position to a top wafer position. In alternative embodiment, a tubular shape of getter material is exposed within the front opening container without containment of the getter other than at the ends. The tubular getter form is preferably supported at discrete locations to maximize exposure to the internal container environment. A blocker member can selectively close the apertures. An elastomeric cap can facilitate securement of the tubular component in the container portion.
