An embodiment relates to a device for changing a position of a carrier for manufacturing a display device. The device includes: a driving object disposed under a transport unit for transporting the carrier in which a substrate and a substrate tray are accommodated; a first rotating object connected to a first side of the driving object; a second rotating object connected to a second side of the driving object, opposite to the first side; a connecting portion connecting the first rotating object and the second rotating object to each other; and a support member on the connecting portion.
HYBRID COMPOSITE ELECTROSTATIC CHUCK
An electrostatic chuck (ESC) for use in semiconductor processing includes a main body comprising an upper mounting surface, the upper mounting surface defining a surface profile and a guide plate coupled to the upper mounting surface of the main body. The guide plate includes a lower mounting surface. The lower mounting surface defines a surface profile that follows the surface profile of the upper mounting surface of the main body. The ESC further includes a heater embedded within the main body and a radio frequency (RF) electrode embedded within the guide plate. The main body is coupled to the guide plate via a connection consisting of a mechanical interlock.
ELECTROSTATIC CHUCK
