Rapid thermal processing (RTP) equipment

RTP (rapid thermal processing) equipment heats one wafer at a time to a high temperature for a short, precisely controlled time, using lamps or heated susceptors. Short heating limits how far dopants diffuse, which is essential for shallow junctions.

What it does


Single-wafer thermal and plasma treatment tools are used for annealing, curing and degassing films, and for nitridation and oxidation of thin gate dielectrics.
