Patent attributes
Disclosed herein are systems and methods relating to a transfer chamber for an electronic device processing system. The transfer chamber includes a magnetic levitation platform, having a magnetic levitation track disposed along a length of the transfer chamber and configured to generate a magnetic field above the track. The transfer chamber also includes a magnetic levitation track disposed along a width of the transfer chamber such that a plane of this lateral track crosses a plane of the longitudinal track at a junction. The lateral track is configured to generate a magnetic field above or below the track. The platform further includes at least one substrate carrier configured to move along the longitudinal track and the lateral track. The substrate carrier also is configured to rotate at the junction.
