Annealsys RTP / RTCVD reactor technology
Advantages of cold wall chamber technology and Annealsys reactor design:
- High process reproducibility
- Low memory effect (Process chamber remains at the same temperature)
- Higher cooling rates
- Ultra clean and contamination-free environment
- No metallic and no cross contamination
- Accurate pyrometer temperature measurement (no signal from the lamps)
- Low temperature pyrometer control (down to 150?C or less)
- Fast digital PID temperature controller
- Multi zone cross lamp furnace (AS-Premium & AS-Master)
- Gas mixing capability
- Uniform gas distribution over the sample
- Atmospheric and standard vacuum capability, option turbo pump
- Minimum volume, reduced surface for high vacuum performance
- Easy chamber cleaning
- Fast cooling optional feature
The cold wall chamber, the extended temperature range as well as the high vacuum capabilities offer the possibility to process high temperature resistant substrates (GaN, SiC, ceramics) as well as temperature sensitive substrates like polymers.
Processes:
- Rapid thermal annealing (RTA)
- Implant annealing
- Contact annealing (III-V and SiC)
- Rapid thermal oxidation (RTO)
- Rapid thermal nitridation (RTN)
- Annealing of piezoelectric and pyroelectric materials
- Getter activation
- Rapid Thermal Evaporation (RTE)
- Selenization (CIGS solar cells)
- Sol-gel densification and crystallization
- Etc.
