摘要： Paddles and enclosures for processing microfeature workpieces are disclosed. A paddle device having multiple paddles is positioned in an enclosure to reciprocate back and forth along a generally linear path. The clearances between the paddles, the workpiece and the walls of the chamber are relatively small to increase the flow agitation at the surface of the workpiece and enhance the mass transfer process occurring there. The paddles are shaped to reduce or eliminate electrical shadowing effects created at the surface of the workpiece during electrochemical processing. Paddles on the same paddle device may have different shapes to reduce the likelihood for creating three-dimensional effects in the flow field proximate to the surface of the workpiece. The reciprocation stroke of the paddles may shift to further reduce shadowing.

摘要： Reactors having multiple electrodes and/or enclosed reciprocating paddles are disclosed. The reactor can include multiple electrodes spaced apart from a process location to provide virtual electrodes proximate to the process location for transferring material to or from the workpiece. A magnet may be positioned proximate to the process plane to orient magnetically sensitive material deposited on the workpiece. The electrodes may be removable from the reactor without passing them through the magnet to reduce interference between the electrodes and the magnet. The workpiece may be carried by a rotatable workpiece support to orient the workpiece for processing. At least one of the electrodes can operate as a current thief to reduce terminal effects at the periphery of the workpiece. An electric field control element positioned between the electrodes and the workpiece circumferentially varies the effect of the thieving electrode current to account for effects created by elongated paddles as they oscillate proximate to the workpiece.

摘要： Tools having mounting modules with registration systems are disclosed. The mounting module includes positioning elements for precisely locating a processing chamber and a transport system that moves workpieces to and from the processing chamber. The relative positions between positioning elements of the module are fixed so that the transport system does not need to be recalibrated when the processing chamber is removed and replaced with another processing chamber. The processing chamber includes a paddle device for agitating processing liquid at a process surface of the workpiece. The paddle device, the processing chamber, and electrodes within the processing chamber are configured to reduce the likelihood for electrical shadowing created by the paddles at the surface of the workpiece, and to account for three-dimensional effects on the electrical field as the paddles reciprocate relative to the workpiece.

摘要： An integrated tool and automatic calibration systems that enable wet chemical processing chambers, lift-rotate units and other hardware to be quickly interchanged without having to recalibrate the transport system or other components to the replacement items. These tools are expected to reduce the down time associated with repairing or maintaining processing chambers and/or lift-rotate units so that the tools can maintain a high throughput. Several aspects of these tools are particularly useful for applications that have stringent performance requirements because components are more likely to require maintenance more frequently, and reducing the down time associated with maintaining such components will significantly enhance the integrated tool.

摘要： Passive end-effectors for handling microelectronic workpieces having a perimeter edge circumscribing a first diameter. In one embodiment, a passive end-effector in accordance with the invention includes a body having a plurality of contact sites located along a circle corresponding to the first diameter of the workpiece. The body, for example, can be a paddle or a fork. The passive end-effector can also include a plurality of passive abutments that are carried by the body. The abutments are located along the circle, and the abutments are configured to support the workpiece in a plane spaced apart from the body. The abutments, for example, can each include an inclined surface that slopes downwardly toward a central region of the circle to support only the edge of the workpiece in a manner that suspends or otherwise spaces the workpiece in a plane that is spaced apart from the body. The passive end-effector can further include a sensor assembly that is carried by the body. The sensor includes an engagement member positioned at least partially within the circle, and the engagement member is configured to move generally transverse to the plane as the workpiece is loaded on and unloaded from the end-effector. The passive end-effector does not include an active member that exerts a force against the edge of the workpiece parallel to the plane of the workpiece.
