ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for drying a wafer at a drying station includes a wafer holder which grips the wafer on its edge so that there is no contact with a face of the wafer. This eliminates contact areas which could cause stains on the face. A carriage mechanism brings a wet wafer into the drying station at one level and takes the dry wafer out of the drying station at a different level to prevent any contact between the dry wafer and residual moisture at the incoming level.
