ABSTRACT:
A laminar flow vacuum chuck (10) has a plurality of vacuum ports (20, 52) disposed near the center of the chuck. A plurality of interconnected grooves (22, 24, 26, 26, 30, 32, 34, 36, 38, 40, 42, 44, 46, 50, 62, 64) extend from the vacuum ports (20, 52) to the perimeter 14. By reason of the shape of the interconnected grooves and the location of the vacuum ports, the downward force on a wafer supported by the chuck increases as the wafer size increases.
