Abstract

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Substrattransportmodul einer Substratbe¬ arbeitungsanlage, wobei das Substrattransportmodul eine Tragvorrichtung in Form einer Tragplatte und/oder eines Tragrahmens aufweist und für eine horizontale Aufnahme und einen horizontalen Transport wenigstens eines flächigen Substrates oder wenigstens eines flächigen Substrattransportobjektes ausgebildet ist. Die Erfindung betrifft ferner eine Belade- und Entladesystem einer Substratbearbeitungsanlage mit einem solchen Substrattransportmodul. Darüber hinaus betrifft die vorliegende Erfindung ein Verfahren zum Transport wenigstens eines flächigen Substrates oder wenigstens eines flächigen Substrattransportobjektes in einer Substratbearbeitungsanlage mit wenigstens einem Substrattransportmodul, welches eine Tragvorrichtung in Form einer Tragplatte und/oder eines Tragrahmens aufweist. Es ist die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, ein Substrattransportmodul, ein Belade- und Entladesystem sowie ein Verfahren im Transport von Substraten in einer Substratbearbeitungsanlage zur Verfügung zu stellen, die es ermöglichen, Kontaminationen von einem Anlagenabschnitt in den nächsten Anlagenabschnitt einer Durchlauf-Substratbearbeitungsanlage zu vermeiden und die es erlauben, eine Substratbearbeitungsanlage effektiver zu betreiben. Dabei soll das Substrattransportmodul und das entsprechende Belade- und Entladesystem möglichst kostengünstig ausgebildet werden können. Diese Aufgabe wird einerseits durch ein Substrattransportmodul einer Substratbearbeitungsanlage der oben genannten Gattung gelöst, wobei sich von der Tragvorrichtung Tragelemente mit horizontal ausgerichteten Auflageabschnitten, welche eine Auflage für das wenigstens eine flächige Substrat oder das wenigstens eine flächige Substrattransportobjekt ausbilden, in einen Bereich unter die Tragvorrichtung erstrecken, und wobei die Tragvorrichtung mit einem Transportsystem für einen Transport des Substrattransportmoduls in der Substratbearbeitungsanlage koppelbar ist. Die Aufgabe wird ferner durch ein das erfindungsgemäße Substrattransportmodul nutzendes Belade- und Entladesystem sowie ein entsprechendes Verfahren gelöst.
