  1. Transfer Calibration LRT Training Center Shaw Wang

  2. Theory of Operation • All wafer locations throughout the system are defined as stations. • Each robot must be calibrated (“taught”) to each station. • Stations are typically defined by the wafer center at each location. • The wafer center position is defined by a radial (R) and theta (T) coordinate relative to the robot being taught. The vertical position (Z or BTO) is defined relative to the robot being taught. Which is typically defined as the wafer height that the wafer can freely enter and exit the station. • Stations with multiple slots must define the number of slots (slot) and the pitch (p) between the slots. • For stations not radially located from the robot center, the wafer path to and from the station must also be defined (via points). • For stations which require mapping, map positions must also be defined. These positions are typically defined with radial, theta and wrist coordinates. • Reference • “Transfer Calibration procedure”, 202-012898-001 Rev G

  10. ATM Calibration • Module station positions (R, T, Z) are taught by the user using the CDM and a fixture that is placed in the module. • Intermediate points are defined by calculations based on the nominal positions. • Intermediate points include via positions, map positions, & map via positions. • Nominal points are based off of a defined home position. • Constants are defined where possible and set based on nominal positions or values.

  11. VTM Calibration • Module station positions (R, T, Z) are taught by the user using the CDM and a fixture that is placed in the module. • Constants are defined were possible and set based on nominal positions or values. • Each VTM position is optimized using Dynamic Alignment (can be done at atmosphere or vacuum) • A wafer is perfectly centered in the station • Wafer is centered either by a fixture (PM) or by the aligner (LL) • Routine is run through system software to adjust the station • The wafer is picked • Dynamic Alignment reports a radial and theta offset (wafer center offset). • Station position (R and T) is adjusted so that the arm and the wafer line up.

  12. Prepare the System • 2300 software ready. • ATM /VTM Robots had installed. • System must be leveled. • Robots and aligner had been setup. • Pin lifter calibrated.

  13. Leveling Procedure • ATM Robot Leveling. • Aligner Leveling. • Airlock Buffer/Cool Station Leveling. • 25 slots Buffer station Leveling. • LPM Installation and Leveling. • KLA Metrology Station Leveling. • VTM Robot End Effector Leveling for SCARA Arm. • ATM Robot vacuum switch set up.

  14. ATM/VTM Robots Calibration • ATM-LPM. • ATM-KLA Metrology Station. • ATM-Airlocks. • ATM-Aligner. • ATM-Buffer/Cool station. • VTM-Airlocks. • VTM-PMs. • After finished all the station, do the ironman test. • To identify the reliability of transfer.

  18. WPS System • Dynamic Alignment is a wafer location and centering algorithm used during wafer transfer in the VTM. Dynamic Alignment uses two sensors on each facet to determine the location of the wafer. • 200mm use sensor 2 for wafer presence. • 300mm use sensor 1 for wafer presence. 300mm Wafer 200mm Wafer
