Abstract
Methods and systems for processing substrates are provided. The system can include: a processing chamber configured to process a substrate based on a recipe; a plurality of sub-systems in operable communication with the processing chamber for controlling corresponding parameters associated with processing the substrate; and a controller in operable communication with the processing chamber and each of the plurality of sub-systems and configured to control each of the plurality of sub-systems and the processing chamber using information included in the recipe and feedback provided by at least one of the plurality of sub-systems. The controller is configured to compare information included in the recipe and feedback provided by at least one of the plurality of sub-systems with stored empirical information relating to the recipe and each of the plurality of sub-systems, and adjust at least one of the corresponding parameters associated with processing the substrate based on a determined comparison.
