# Substrate deposition holding apparatus

## Abstract

A clamp-shaped substrate deposition holding apparatus is disclosed. The apparatus may include a first semi-circular member and a second semi-circular member. A second semi-circular member distal end may be pivotally attached to a first semi-circular member distal end, which may enable the first and second semi-circular members to move between a closed position and an open position. The apparatus may further include a first holding arm disposed on a first semi-circular member proximal end and a second holding arm disposed on a second semi-circular member proximal end. A first holding arm longitudinal axis and a second holding arm longitudinal axis may be disposed at a predefined angle relative to each other when the first and second semi-circular members may be in the closed position. The apparatus may further include first and second gripping pads disposed on first and second semi-circular member interior surfaces.
