Abstract: Wafer-handling end effectors and semiconductor manufacturing devices that include and/or are utilized with wafer-handling end effectors are disclosed herein. The end effectors include an end effector body and a plurality of wafer-contacting surfaces that is supported by the end effector body and configured to form an at least partially face-to-face contact with a wafer. The end effectors further include a vacuum distribution manifold that extends between a robot-proximal end of the end effector body and the plurality of wafer-contacting surfaces. The end effectors also include a plurality of vacuum openings that is defined within the plurality of wafer-contacting surfaces and extends between the plurality of wafer-contacting surfaces and the vacuum distribution manifold. The end effectors further include a plurality of sealing structures each of which is associated with a respective one of the plurality of wafer-contacting surfaces.

Abstract: An adapter conductively interconects a chuck of a probe station and an instrument. The adapter includes a signal conductor conductively connected to the chuck and selectively connectable to a respective one of a ground potential, a bayonet connector output and a signal connection for the instrument. A guard potential conductor conductively connected to the chuck and selectively connectable to a one of a ground potential and a guard connection for the instrument; and a shield conductor connected to a ground potential.
