Overview

As the density of semiconductor becomes higher and its pattern becomes finer, Rapid  Thermal Annealing (RTA) is attracting attention as an important heating technique in the semiconductor fabrication process. The class 10000 cleanroom will make available two (2) units of rapid thermal annealer to support the high density semiconductor fabrication processing.

Mini Lamp Annealer MILA-3000

The MILA-3000 has integrated excellent characteristics, such as capabilities of rapid heating/cooling of the infrared gold image furnace, high precision temperature control, clean heating and versatile atmosphere selection, in a compact unit and features moderate price, small size and high performance.

Max Size: Less than (20 x 20) mm.

Availability: To be advised.
