Abstract:
A substrate supporting and transferring apparatus and associated methods, the apparatus including a shuttle configured to move in a x-direction and a y-direction, the y-direction being perpendicular to the x-direction; a lower wedge block on the shuttle, the lower wedge block including a lower surface that is parallel with an upper surface of the shuttle and an upper surface that is inclined with respect to the lower surface of the lower wedge block; an upper wedge block on the lower wedge block, the upper wedge block including a lower surface that is parallel with the upper surface of the lower wedge block and an upper surface that is parallel with the upper surface of the shuttle; and a chuck on the upper wedge block, the chuck being configured to support a substrate.

Claim (Index 18):
The method as claimed in  claim 17 , wherein:\n the substrate supporting and transferring apparatus further includes a rotator configured to rotate the lower wedge block at a predetermined angle with respect to x-y plane on the shuttle, the x-y plane being formed by the x-direction and the y-direction, and in the lower wedge block rotating step, the air is provided between the lower wedge block and the shuttle to float lower wedge block, and the floated lower wedge block rotates on the shuttle on the x-y plane, and the air between the lower wedge block and the shuttle is removed to fix the lower wedge block to the shuttle.
