    Abstract: A reticle pressing unit and an EUV reticle pod using the same are provided. An inner assembly includes an upper cover and a lower cover. The lower cover includes a supporting element for supporting the reticle. A pressing unit for pressing the reticle is disposed on the upper cover and includes a pressing element and a limiting cap. The pressing element has oppositely arranged pressing part and pressure receiving part. The pressing part extends through the upper cover to press against the reticle. The pressing element is covered by the limiting cap and is protruded outwardly from a top surface of the limiting cap. An outer cover has a pushing surface for forming a surface-to-surface contact with the pressure receiving part and for simultaneously pressing against the pressure receiving part and the top surface to solve the problems relating to the reticle which is applied with uneven forces.

    Abstract: The present invention provides a dual pod including an inner pod and an outer pod. The inner pod has at least one engaging portion provided on a relative outside of the inner pod. The outer pod defines an accommodation space for receiving the inner pod. The outer pod has at least one guide mechanism provided on a relative inside of the outer pod, and the guide mechanism is guided by and limited at the engaging portion such that an offset movement of the inner pod within the outer pod is restricted.

    Abstract: The present invention provides a latching guide structure arranged inside a door of semiconductor carrier. The latching guide structure comprises an upper latching part, a lower latching part, at least one elastic unit and a driver. Moreover, a first guiding portion of the upper latching part is matched with a second guiding portion of the lower latching part, therefore to define the installation space for the at least one elastic unit. On the other hand, the driver simultaneously actuates an upper actuating unit of the first guiding portion and a lower actuating unit of the second guiding portion to linearly move in reverse direction therebetween. The range of the linear motion of the upper actuating unit and the lower actuating unit represents the compression or extension of the at least one elastic unit, determining to control the open/close status of the upper latching part and the lower latching part.

    Abstract: The present invention discloses a reticle storage pod including an outer pod which includes an outer cover and an outer base. The outer cover and the outer base can be coupled to securely accommodate one of a first inner pod and a second inner pod that are differently structured in the outer pod. The first inner pod and the second inner pod are for individually accommodating a reticle. The outer cover is provided with at least one first hold-down mechanism and at least one second hold-down mechanism, and the first hold-down mechanism and the second hold-down mechanism respectively act on a cover of the first inner pod and a cover of the second inner pod that are differently structured.
