Title:
圧力制御された熱源及びRTP用処理を用いるための方法
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP4771226
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
A thermal device with a container having a surface exposed to the substrate, wherein the container further has a heat source and a plurality of thermal shields situated between the surface exposed to the substrate and the heat source. The thermal shields are spaced from one another by a predetermined distance defining one or more gaps therebetween, wherein the predetermined distance is associated with a mean free path of a gas residing therein. Alternatively, the predetermined distance is variable. A pressure of a gas residing within the one or more gaps is controlled, wherein the pressure of the gas switches the thermal conductivity of the gas between generally conductive and generally non-conductive.
