Description
[基板処理システム1の構成]
図1は、本開示の第1実施形態における基板処理システムの一例を示す横断平面図である。図1に示す基板処理システム1は、枚葉でウエハ(例えば、半導体ウエハ。)にプラズマ処理等の各種処理を施すことが可能な基板処理システムである。
図2は、第1実施形態における収納モジュールの一例を示す正面断面図である。図2は、収納モジュール22をVTM11b側から見た断面図である。図2に示すように、収納モジュール22は、フレーム24の上にチャンバ30が設置され、チャンバ30の上部に機械室40を有する。チャンバ30は、内部を真空、大気圧に切り換え可能である。また、チャンバ30には、パージガスとして例えばN2ガスが供給され、調圧可能となっている。機械室40は、大気圧雰囲気である。
次に、第1実施形態に係る搬送方法について説明する。図7は、第1実施形態における搬送処理の一例を示すフローチャートである。図7では、カセット35の設置からロボットアーム12bがアライメントされたエッジリング50を取得するまでを説明する。
第1実施形態では、ステージ31内に回転部を設けてエッジリング50を回転させてアライメントを行ったが、載置台、収納部および昇降部を固定した台座を回転させてもよく、この場合の実施の形態につき、第2実施形態として説明する。なお、第1実施形態と同一の構成には同一符号を付すことで、その重複する構成および動作の説明については省略する。
図10は、第2実施形態における収納モジュールの一例を示す正面断面図である。図10に示す収納モジュール22aは、第1実施形態の収納モジュール22と比較して、チャンバ30および機械室40に代えて、チャンバ70および機械室90を有する。また、収納モジュール22aは、ステージ31、ラインセンサ32、ボールねじ36、モータ38ストレージ39に代えて、ステージ71、画像センサ72、ボールねじ76、モータ78およびストレージ79を有する。さらに、収納モジュール22aは、チャンバ70の底面にボールねじ76およびモータ78が設置された台座73を有する。また、ストレージ79は、ステージ71と、カゴ34とを有する。
