Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A mobile, self-evacuating, micro-environment system for transit and storage of substrates between two or more processing chambers in the manufacture of semiconductor devices is provided where the system includes a mobile cart, a vacuum sealable container to hold the substrates, a vacuum source having a portable power source, located on the cart and capable of generating a vacuum in the container, and a docking valve to mate with a corresponding valve on each of the processing chambers, where the docking valve and the corresponding valve are securable to one another to form a substantially vacuum-tight seal and openable, while mated, to permit unloading and loading of substrates between the container and the processing chamber. A method of using the system is also provided.
