Overview


VF-1000H is a mini-batch vertical furnace for R&D from JTEKT Thermo Systems (formerly Koyo Thermo Systems). It processes up to 25 wafers with single-wafer transfer, delivering high-quality processes even though it is for R&D.

There are 2 heater types: molybdenum disilicide (MoSi₂) and carbon. The temperature range is 700 to 1,400 °C for the MoSi₂ heater and 700 to 1,850 °C for the carbon heater, higher than typical diffusion furnaces for silicon.

The MoSi₂ heater version handles wafers up to φ150 mm and supports several wafer sizes. The main processes are high-temperature oxidation and oxynitridation. The main unit measures 1,800 (W) × 1,400 (D) × 2,300 (H) mm.
