Systems, apparatus and methods for transporting substrates in electronic device manufacturing
Abstract:
An electronic device processing system is disclosed. The system includes a transfer chamber including facets and a plurality of single-entry process chambers coupled to the facets, wherein at least some process chambers are non-focalized process chambers, at least one load lock chamber, and a robot apparatus operable to transport substrates between the process chambers and the load lock chamber(s). Robot apparatus includes an upper arm, a forearm, and a wrist member adapted for independent rotation relative to the forearm about a wrist axis, and an end effector adapted to carry a substrate. Various degrees of yaw may be imparted to the wrist member in order to service the non-focalized process chambers. Systems and methods are also provided as are other aspects.
