An apparatus that includes a susceptor having a number of through holes, a number of lift pins positioned within the through holes, each lift pin having a lift pin head able to translate a wafer by contacting the wafer at an outer diameter edge, the lift pins capable of extending to lift the wafer off the susceptor; and the lift pins capable of retracting to place the wafer onto the susceptor, and upon placing the wafer onto the susceptor, each of the lift pin heads are capable of contacting a floor of the susceptor for restricting flow of a gas through the through holes.
