A process for the fabrication of aluminum metallixed pyrolytic grapbitc sputtering targets.
A de\ ice for plating a wafer in which the lower surface of the circumferential edge of the wafer is held by a holding means onlo a posittoning base portion formed in an opening portion of a plating bath and a plating fluid is applied onto the lower SW face of the wafer- for plating. characterized in that the holding means comprises an air bag, which is adapted to constrain only the upper surface of the circumferential edge of the wafer at an expanded state and releases the constraint by contracting to restore an initial configuration at a nonexpanded state

We’ Got ve thePower! Rameo ha8 reinvented the multi stage cleaning console. Born @ona the industrial factory floor, not a laboratory, and built production.

’ We started rnth a heavy gauge stainless steel tank ( 7ga. and 12ga.j and added a transport elevator to each stage to take the work in and out of solution automatically. * WC added a versatile oscillation package to each elevator that could move the workload within all zones of the cleaning chamber. * We designed the system to be easily senwed with parts (pumps. motors, filters, pneumatics, electric, etc.) outside the console, not tucked under “acce~s~ pan&.
hMSf CO& CFC-free fully-automated parts cleaning system
And then we added power* Powerful turbulence created by cast stainless steel high volume pumps and multiple inlectors drected

at the work zone.
An ~wesc~me sweep frequency ultrasonic system combined with our
oscillating elevator to move the work through the wave energy An air knife blow-off drxr usine the elevator to cut in and out of the high volume Aot air &ream for rapid drying without excessive heat. * And a revolutionary “cable ready” transfer system that moves all baskets through all stages, all at the same time. ??
.he Vector is a high throughput ultrasonic cleaning system that icorporates a combination of the most effective cleaning techlotogles available (pat. #4,409,999). Baskets are processed III IOnmute intervals. Deslgned for parts larger than 3” In size, the Vector bliminatesthe inefficiencies commonly found in fully-automated multiankcleaning systems. Initial and operating costsare lowerthan any ompetitive system. Contact Zenith for details.
