The project objectives are to develop/select the best elastomer material and shape for the dynamic seals on the load lock gate valve that has extremely low particle generation. Part of the project is also to investigate the possible failure/particle generation mechanisms of elastomers.
The following tasks are part of the assignment:
Literature study
- Create an overview of elastomeric materials used in semiconductor industries
- Create an overview of known failure mechanisms of elastomeric materials that can lead to particle generation or early failure
- Map most important material properties needed to meet the provided requirements
- If available, select readily available elastomer(s) for testing under relevant conditions
Design/Develop
- If no existing elastomeric material suits the requirements, design and develop an elastomeric seal that meets the requirements
Test
- Show the feasibility of the selected or developed seal designs by testing against provided requirements, with a focus on low particle generation
