D1 Furnace Apox is a Tempress horizontal furnace for oxidation silicon wafers. This furnace is dedicated production of apox wafers which is a very thick thermal oxide grown at 1150 <sup>o</sup>C. Running a batch of apox wafers (oxide>5µm) can take several weeks. | D1 Furnace Apox is a Tempress horizontal furnace for oxidation silicon wafers.
