Abstract

A method and an apparatus for examining wafers includes a wafer cassette having a capacity for holding a plurality of wafers located on each of first and second locaters. The wafer cassettes are fixedly held on the first and second locaters during the wafer examination. A first indicator shows that the wafer cassettes are fixedly held on the first and second locaters. A robot arm sequentially carries each of the wafers between the first locator, an aligner, a scanning chamber and the second locater to examine the wafers. The wafer cassettes are released when the examination is complete, and a second indicator shows that the examination is complete.
