METHOD OF OPERATING A PROCESSING SYSTEM FOR TREATING A SUBSTRATE

摘要

A method and system are described for operating a processing system in order to optimize throughput. The processing system is configured for chemical oxide removal, wherein the processing system includes a process chamber having a lower chamber portion configured to chemically treat a substrate and an upper chamber portion configured to thermally treat the substrate, and a substrate lifting assembly configured to transport the substrate between the lower chamber portion and the upper chamber portion.
