Abstract
A tri-modal carrier provides a structural platform to temporarily bond a semiconductive wafer and can be used to transport the semiconductive wafer or be used to perform manufacturing processes on the semiconductive wafer. The tri-modal carrier includes a doped semiconductive substrate, a plurality of electrostatic field generating (EFG) circuits, and a capacitance charging interface. A positive pole and a negative pole from each EFG circuit are embedded into the doped semiconductive substrate. An exposed portion of the doped semiconductive substrate is located between the positive pole and the negative pole, which is used as a biased pole for each EFG circuit. The combination of these poles for each EFG circuit is used to generate a non-uniform electrostatic field for bonding the semiconductive wafer. The tri-modal carrier also uses flat surface properties and the removal of trapped gas particles to strengthen the bond between the tri-modal carrier and the semiconductive wafer.
