Automated Batch Production Thin Film Deposition Systems and Methods of Using the Same

Abstract:

Fully automated batch production thin film deposition systems configured to deliver uniformity combined with high throughput at a low cost-per-wafer. In some examples, systems of the present disclosure include automated safe wafer handling via low-impact batch transfer via transportable wafer racks loaded with a plurality of wafers. In some examples, systems include a modular pre-heat & cool-down architecture that enables a flexible thermal management solution tailored around particular specifications.
