A wafer support ring and a method of using the same are disclosed herein. The support ring supports a wafer during a first processing operation. A top surface of the support ring is in contact with a first plurality of locations on a surface of the wafer during the first processing operation. A second wafer support structure is used to support the wafer during a second processing operation. A top surface of the second wafer support structure is in contact with a second, different plurality of locations on the surface of the wafer during the second processing operation. The wafer support ring may also have an outer lip disposed about an outer periphery of the support ring that has a depth such that it does not form part of the top surface of the support ring. |
