Abstract: 【課題】基板処理システムとして、スパッタリングおよびイオン注入システムのようなシステムでは、基板の処理中にシステムは固定されているが、このような固定されたシステムは、高処理能力による処理が困難である。【解決手段】2つのレール350、355を、処理領域の両側にそれぞれ設け、2つのチャックアレイC1、C2がレール上に片持ち状に設けられ、複数のチャック352、357を支持する。レールは、処理のための上の位置およびチャックアレイを返送するための下の位置に配置する昇降機構360に連結される。これにより、1つのレールが下の位置をとるとき、チャックアレイは、他のチャックアレイの下を通過することができ、イオンビームを常に一方のチャックアレイ上に維持し、処理されたアレイがビームから抜ける前に、もう一方のアレイをアンロード/ロードし、処理位置に戻す。【選択図】図3A

Abstract: A grid for minimizing effects of ion divergence in plasma ion implant. The plasma grid is made of a flat plate having a plurality of holes, wherein the holes are arranged in a plurality of rows and a plurality of columns thereby forming beamlets of ions that diverge in one direction. A mask is used to form the implanted shapes on the wafer, wherein the holes in the mask are oriented orthogonally to the direction of beamlet divergence.

Abstract: System and method to align a substrate under a shadow mask. A substrate holder has alignment mechanism, such as rollers, that is made to abut against an alignment straight edge. The substrate is then aligned with respect to the straight edge and is chucked to the substrate holder. The substrate holder is then transported into a vacuum processing chamber, wherein it is made to abut against a mask straight edge to which the shadow mask is attached and aligned to. Since the substrate was aligned to an alignment straight edge, and since the mask is aligned to the mask straight edge that is precisely aligned to the alignment straight edge, the substrate is perfectly aligned to the mask.
