The low temp oxidation system is located in Tube 3 of the MRL furnaces and can process small pieces, 3, 4 and 6-inch wafers. The system uses a microprocessor sequencer to automatically control the in and out movement of the cantilever, tube temperature and gas flow. Wafers are loaded on quartz boats and transferred into the tube at a slow controlled pace. Users can run recipes for dry oxidations, wet oxidations or anneals. Recipe temperatures range from 380°C to 700°C.
This instrument has material restrictions. Consult the allowed materials list for this instrument in FOM.
