The most powerful 3-inch rapid thermal processor for universities
The AS-Micro is a compact table top three-inch rapid thermal processor with vacuum capability dedicated to research applications. It can process substrates from few square millimeters up to 3-inch diameter or square. Optional susceptors are available to hold small samples and to process substrates with low infrared absorption.
The quartz tube process chamber with stainless steel flanges and tubular infrared halogen lamps furnace allows running processes up to 1250°C with very fast ramp rates (> 250°C/s). The state of the art temperature controller provides accurate temperature control.
The horizontal motion door with quartz tray provides easy access for loading and unloading of the wafers and thermocouple installation.
The furnace provides the highest ramp rate up to 250°C/s for 2-inch wafers
