Abstract

A semiconductor fabrication facility is provided. The semiconductor fabrication facility includes a processing tool and a transmission assembly. The transmission assembly is connected to the processing tool and comprises a number of transmission lines used to supply electric power or a fluid to the processing tool or remove the fluid or an exhaust gas from the processing tool. The transmission lines includes a first transmission line and a second transmission line. The first transmission line has a first temperature and the second transmission line has a second temperature. The second temperature is higher than the first temperature. The first transmission line and the second transmission line are arranged such that a thermal energy of the second transmission line is able to be transmitted to the first transmission line to change the first temperature of the first transmission line.
