Body

The AG Heatpulse 610 uses high intensity, visible radiation to heat samples for short periods (1-600 seconds) at precisely controlled temperatures. The steady state temperature range is from 400-1150 C and the heating rate is variable from 1-200 C per second. This is an atmospheric pressure system with limited capability for modification of annealing ambient with oxygen, argon, nitrogen, or forming gas (5% H2 in Ar). Precise time-temperature profiles can be tailored for a variety of processing applications including ion implant activation, annealing, oxide reflow, silicide formation, contact alloying, and gallium arsenide processing. Samples up to and including 150 mm wafers can be accommodated.
