The Noble Furnace is mostly used for annealing and oxidation of different samples. Annealing can be done in a nitrogen or argon atmosphere. | The Noble Furnace is mostly used for annealing and oxidation of different samples. Annealing can be done in a nitrogen or argon atmosphere. Autumn 2013 a bubler has also been installed in the furnace, so it is possible to do both wet and dry oxidations. The maximum temperature of the furnace is 1000 <sup>o</sup>C. | ||
In the Noble Furnaces more dirty samples with metals and some specific polymers are allowed. Different sample holder are available for wafers and smaller samples (placed on a Si carrier wafer). | In the Noble Furnaces more dirty samples with metals and some specific polymers are allowed.
