摘要:
Embodiments of the present disclosure provide apparatus and methods for loading and unloading a multiple-substrate processing chamber segment by segment. One embodiment of the present disclosure provides an apparatus for processing multiple substrates. The apparatus includes a substrate supporting tray having a plurality of substrate pockets forming a plurality of segments, and a substrate handling assembly configured to pick up and drop off substrates from and to a segment of substrate pockets of the substrate supporting tray.
主权项:
1. An apparatus for processing multiple substrates, comprising: a chamber body defining a processing volume, wherein the chamber body has an opening to allow passage of substrates therethrough; a substrate support assembly disposed in the processing volume and rotatable about a central axis, wherein the substrate support assembly has two or more segments of substrate pockets formed on an upper surface, and each substrate pocket accommodates a substrate therein; and a substrate handling assembly disposed in the processing volume, wherein the substrate handling assembly is capable of loading and unloading one segment of substrate pockets at a time, and the substrate support assembly rotates about the central axis to align each segment of substrate pockets with the substrate handling assembly.
