Résumé / Abstract
Devices which establish particle-free wafer handling for gas, liquid and vacuum environments used in a 64 Mbyte dynamic random-access memory (DRAM) process were developed. A non-contact handler was developed as a handling device for use in a gas environment, such as air or nitrogen, which keeps wafers clean without touching them through the mutual action of gas suction and blow-out. Also, a non-contact gas levitation track was developed for use in a gas environment, which levitates, transfers and guides wafers without any contact using the fluid force of gas blow-out with a very low velocity. A liquid levitation transport track was developed for use in a liquid environment, which transports wafers without exposing them to atmosphere using the fluid forces of liquid jets
