The Rite Track 88e Track System, a Rite Track design
based on the proven 88 Series platform, has evolved
significantly. This new system has been enhanced to add
200mm substrate processing capability with improved
contamination control, reliability, and process control.
The Rite Track 88e system has 0.35µ process capabilities on 100mm to 200mm substrates
Cost
Effective 200mm Processing
The Rite Track 88e Track System is a Rite Track design.
The Rite Track 88e Track System improves on the proven
88 series system by meeting the demanding requirements
of 200mm processing while maintaining ease of repair and
quick size changes from 100mm to 200mm.
All 88e modules are redesigned, not just "scaled-up", to ensure optimum performance at 200mm.
Sub
Half Micron Process Control
The Rite Track 88e Track System incorporates an improved
HMDS delivery system to maximize resist adhesion.
Aerodynamically modeled catch cups improve coating
uniformity and minimize airborne contamination. All
hotplates and chill plates are specially designed to
improve regulation, efficiency and uniformity, resulting
in better wafer-to-wafer bake and chill repeatability at
critical process steps.
The Rite Track 88e Track System provides world class process capabilities for coat, bake, and develop at an affordable price. Typical process performance exceeds the control requirements for 0.35 micron geometries.
Lower
Cost Of Ownership
Improving the overall process is only part of the story.
The Rite Track 88e Track System is specifically designed
to eliminate the high cost of 200mm processing. Full
featured systems can be delivered at a fraction of the
cost of competitive 200mm substrate, 0.35 micron process
tools. The Rite Track 88e Track System also maintains
high throughput with reduced wafer handling times and
module overheads.
Integrated
OEMs
Rite Track has partnered with the finest OEMs, including
state of the art pump and environmental enclosure
manufacturers. Integration of modern temperature and
humidity control systems and the most advanced
photoresist pumps allows coating performance far beyond
other tools in this class. OEMs, include
Mykrolis,
IDI, Integrated
Flow Systems,
Semifab,
Watlow,
and
SMCUSA.
The fully featured 88 Series is ideal for submicron manufacturing. All 88
series systems are capable of processing 3" through 150mm substrates. Wafer
size change is simple and requires minutes, not hours. Silicon, GaAs,
Sapphire, GGG, Lithium Niobate, thin film heads, MEMS and many other
substrate types are routinely processed on 88 Series systems.
The 88 series uses an enhanced in-line robotic transfer arm between each module. Critical transfers, such as between soft bake and chill, are much more easily controlled compared to a totally random robotic system. The 88 series can be provided with enhanced handling features including ceramic transfer arms, substrate edge handling during transfer and padded transfer arms.
All 86 series systems are capable of processing 2"
through 150mm substrates. Wafer size change is simple
and requires minutes, not hours. Silicon, GaAs,
sapphire, GGG, Lithium Niobate, thin film heads, MEMS
and many other substrate types are routinely processed
on 86 Series systems. The 86 Series are even able to
process square substrates up to 125mm on a side (180mm
diagonal).
The 86 series uses a simple and very forgiving belt transfer system to reduce wafer breakage. This belted system has low transfer overhead times, resulting in high throughput on an in-line track system.
