Abstract:
The inventive concept provides a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device using a plasma etching apparatus including an alignment chamber and a process chamber. The method includes: loading a wafer in the alignment chamber of the plasma etching apparatus; rotating the wafer loaded in the alignment chamber according to a plurality of heating zones arranged in an electrostatic chuck of the process chamber, thereby rotating a reference point of the wafer; transferring the wafer that was rotated in the alignment chamber onto the electrostatic chuck of the process chamber; and plasma-etching the wafer that was rotated in the alignment chamber on the electrostatic chuck of the process chamber.

Claim (Index 17):
The method of  claim 14 , wherein a second alignment chamber is connected to the transfer chamber, and\n the method further comprises, after the plasma-etching has been performed, transferring the wafer to and loading the wafer in the second alignment chamber, rotating the reference point of the wafer by rotating the wafer loaded in the second alignment chamber, and transferring the wafer that was rotated in the second alignment chamber to the process chamber using the second transfer robot.
