Semiconductors

In process and characterisation tools, reliable transfer depends on cleanliness, geometry, orientation, travel, repeatability and chamber compatibility. The system is defined from the sample and full sequence, not from an isolated actuator.

Inputs that drive selection

  • Wafer or sample format, carrier and orientation
  • Sequence across load lock, transfer, process and analysis
  • Vacuum level, allowable contamination and materials
  • Automation, sensors, interlocks and maintenance

Recommendation boundary

VPD relates technologies, components and interfaces from documented requirements. The final configuration, performance and acceptance plan are confirmed for each installation.
