The present invention provides apparatus for loading a substrate (65) onto a processing surface (61) in a thin- film processing chamber (60). The apparatus includes a support (66) which cooperates with one or more corresponding apertures (62) in the processing surface so as to be movable between an extended position in which the support can support a substrate (65) above the processing surface (61) , and a retracted position in which the support is flush with or located below the processing surface (61). The support has a number of limbs (64) which extend radially outwardly from a central hub, at an angle relative to the processing surface. The limbs contact the edges of different sized substrates in use so as to support the substrate in a support plane above the central hub and substantially parallel to the processing surface.
