    摘要: A substrate cleaning and drying system includes a cleaning station, a drying station positioned adjacent the cleaning station, a cleaner robot to transfer a substrate from the cleaning station to the drying station, an aligner stage adjacent to the drying station, a robot arm rotatable between a substantially vertical first position for receiving the substrate from the drying station and a substantially horizontal second position for releasing the substrate onto the aligner stage, and a factory interface robot to transfer a substrate from the aligner stage into a factory interface module while in a horizontal orientation. The aligner stage includes a rotatable support to hold the substrate in a substantially horizontal orientation and to rotate the substrate to a desired orientation.

    摘要: A carrier head for holding a substrate in a polishing system includes a housing, a first flexible membrane secured to the housing to form one or more pressurizable chambers to apply pressure through a central membrane portion of the first flexible membrane to a central portion of a substrate, and a plurality of independently operable piezoelectric actuators supported by the housing, the plurality of piezoelectric actuators positioned radially outward of the central membrane portion and at different angular positions so as to independently adjust pressure on a plurality of angular zones in an annular outer region of the substrate surrounding the central portion of the substrate.
