Compact Rotating Stage

View page
US Patent:
6779278, Aug 24, 2004
Filed:
Jul 17, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/622385
Inventors:
Blaine R. Spady - Lincoln NE
Dan M. Colban - Tracy CA
Assignee:
Nanometrics Incorporated - Milpitas CA
International Classification:
B65G 4907
US Classification:
33569, 414936
Abstract:
A compact stage includes a rotary driver and a vertical linear driver that are in the same horizontal plane, which advantageously reduces the height of the device. The stage may include a rotating shaft to which a chuck is mounted. A rotary drive, which may be an annular rotary drive, is coupled to and rotates the rotating shaft. A linear drive is also coupled to the rotating shaft and in one embodiment extends through the center of the annular rotary drive. The linear drive moves the rotating shaft along a vertical axis. The linear drive may be, e. g. , a voice coil motor that uses a spring to bias the rotating shaft along the vertical axis.

Stage With Two Substrate Buffer Station

View page
US Patent:
6854948, Feb 15, 2005
Filed:
Aug 15, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/219569
Inventors:
Blaine R. Spady - Lincoln NE, US
Dan M. Colban - Tracy CA, US
Robert S. Kearns - Saratoga CA, US
Assignee:
Nanometrics Incorporated - Milpitas CA
International Classification:
B65G049/07
US Classification:
41441603, 414281, 414938, 414936
Abstract:
A stage used, e. g. , in semiconductor fabrication, includes a two substrate buffer station and a movable chuck. The buffer station, in one embodiment is fixed, i. e. , non-movable relative to the stage. In another embodiment, the support elements of the buffer station may move in unison vertically or horizontally. In another embodiment, a pair of the support elements horizontally moves toward another pair of support elements to reduce the necessary horizontal motion of the chuck. For example, an unprocessed substrate is loaded onto the top supporting elements of the buffer station, while processed substrates are unloaded from the bottom supporting element of the buffer station. The movable chuck is used to remove the unprocessed substrates from the buffer station and to place the processed substrates on the buffer station.

Precision Polar Coordinate Stage

View page
US Patent:
6910847, Jun 28, 2005
Filed:
Jul 19, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/199140
Inventors:
Christopher W. Blaufus - San Jose CA, US
Blaine R. Spady - Lincoln NE, US
John D. Heaton - Fremont CA, US
Dan M. Colban - Tracy CA, US
Assignee:
Nanometrics Incorporated - Milpitas CA
International Classification:
B66C023/00
US Classification:
4147445, 4147491, 4147496, 4147511, 4147521
Abstract:
A polar coordinate stage that may be used in a chamber includes a rotating chuck that moves in a linear direction and has the motors that drive the motion of the chuck outside the chamber. The stage can include a linkage of arms to support and drive the linear motion of the chuck. The chuck is coupled to a horizontal rail such that rotational motion of a first arm is translated into precise linear motion of the chuck along the horizontal rail through a second arm. In addition, a system of pulleys within the arms translates rotational (or linear) motion through the arms and rotates the chuck. Vertical motion may be provided by an actuator between the second arm and the chuck or by a motor under the stage. Because of the compact nature of the stage, it can be easily placed within a chamber.

Edge Grip Chuck

View page
US Patent:
7032287, Apr 25, 2006
Filed:
Jul 19, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/198948
Inventors:
Blaine R. Spady - Lincoln NE, US
Christopher W. Blaufus - San Jose CA, US
Douglas A. Page - San Jose CA, US
Dan M. Colban - Tracy CA, US
Assignee:
Nanometrics Incorporated - Milpitas CA
International Classification:
B23Q 7/00
B05C 13/00
B05C 13/02
US Classification:
29559, 118500, 118503, 279110, 279123, 269268, 269287
Abstract:
An actuated edge grip chuck includes tabs with raised portions that press against the side of a substrate as opposed clamping on the top or bottom surfaces. The edge grip chuck includes a solid-state actuator to move a moveable tab into an open position. The solid-state actuator may be, e. g. , a piezoelectric actuator or a shape memory alloy. The tab may be biased into the closed position such that when a substrate is held by the edge by the moveable tab and one or more fixed tabs. If desired, more than one moveable tab may be used.

Method And Apparatus For Captive Clock Head Assembly

View page
US Patent:
57609896, Jun 2, 1998
Filed:
Apr 15, 1996
Appl. No.:
8/632011
Inventors:
Dan Colban - San Leandro CA
Assignee:
Phase Metrics - San Diego CA
International Classification:
G11B 3314
US Classification:
360 75
Abstract:
The present invention is a clock head assembly that writes reference marks on a magnetic disk of a hard drive. The clock head assembly includes a clock head that is mounted to an arm and coupled to the magnetic disk through a window of the disk drive housing. The arm is pivotally mounted to a housing which has a gasket that seals the window and allows the assembly to operate in a non-clean room environment. The arm is coupled to a cam that is manually actuated by a lever to move the clock head arm assembly between a loaded position and an unloaded position. An alignment plate is also provided for aligning the clock head assembly to the hard drive assembly.
