Abstract
A method and apparatus for detecting and correcting incoming substrate deformation is disclosed. Substrates are positioned in a first process chamber, where the presence and type of substrate bow is detected. Based upon the detection of substrate bow, and a determination of whether the substrate has a compressive bow or a tensile bow, a substrate processing program is selected for execution. The substrate processing program can be executed in the first process chamber or in a second process chamber to correct or alleviate the bow prior to or during further processing of the substrate.
