Abstract

See full text

A linear motor for use in semiconductor processing apparatuses. The linear motor is a three axis linear motor that includes magnets that cover end turns of coil windings in order to utilize the end turns to generate a force along a second or third axis. The coil windings are positioned between two magnet arrays and each magnet array has a magnet, such as a voice coil motor (VCM) magnet, positioned along one side to cover the endturns and provide a magnetic flux. A VCM back iron is positioned to provide a magnetic flux return path for the VCM magnets. The structure in conjunction with a DC offset produces a useful force.
