Abstract
A method includes causing a carrier of an overhead hoist transfer system (OHT) to latch onto a top latch of a first semiconductor wafer transportation pod, the first semiconductor wafer transportation pod comprising a top latching mechanism configured to selectively connect to another pod or a carrier mechanism of an overhead hoist transfer (OHT) system, and a bottom latching mechanism configured to selectively connect to another pod. The method further includes rotating the first semiconductor wafer transportation pod such that the top latching mechanism of the first semiconductor wafer transportation pod latches on to a second semiconductor wafer transportation pod.
