    Abstract: A mask tray (132), used to hold and guide an X-ray mask (38) to the exposure column (36) of an X-ray lithography system (10), includes first and second holding means (148, 150) which engage vertical mask channels (140, 142) in the mask support (136) to hold the mask (38) on the tray (132). The tray (132) is shaped as a wafer and is moved and loaded on the exposure column (36) using the same translation mechanism (16) used to transport wafers being processed. After the mask (38) is aligned with the exposure column (36), the translation mechanism (16) is moved in the Z direction. At the same time vacuum means (39) are engaged to hold the mask (38) on the column (36) and the holding means (148, 150) are released slightly, thereby permitting the mask (38) to jump the last few microns to the column (36). During the jump, the mask (38) is guided by the holding means (148, 150) remaining near the channels (140, 142). Special translation mechanism (16) movements are needed to remove the tray (132).

    Abstract: Apparatus for guiding a cable travelling along a longitudinal path through a beam of radiation in a shielded chamber, the apparatus including rollers disposed about the cable in a manner which prevents the leakage of radiation via apertures in the chamber through which the cable enters end exits. Specifically, the apparatus includes sets of rollers spaced at longitudinal intervals along the cable, the rollers in each set being positioned at angular intervals about the longitudinal axis of the cable. An angular offsetting of rollers in different sets, so that a roller in one set is longitudinally aligned with the spacing between rollers in other sets, is provided. By selecting rollers of prescribed dimensions, by placing the rollers at prescribed angular intervals in each set, and by angularly offsetting a plurality of sets by prescribed angles, a plurality of sets of rollers - when placed proximate to the entrance or exit to an aperture - can preclude radiation leakage through the aperture. The cable and the sets of rollers are, preferably, rotatable about the longitudinal axis of the cable. The rollers are adjustable to abut against cables of varying diameters, the axes of the rollers being substantially perpendicular to the cable axis, thereby allowing roller rotation during cable travel.
