Aluminium Anneal furnace (C4)

C4 Aluminium Anneal furnace. Positioned in cleanroom 2

The Aluminium Anneal furnace (C4) is a Tempress horizontal furnace for annealing of silicon wafers with aluminium.

This furnace is the lowest of the furnace tubes in the furnace C-stack positioned in cleanroom 2. In this furnace it is allowed to enter wafers that contain aluminium. Check the cross contamination information in LabManager for more information.

The user manual, technical information and contact information can be found in LabManager:
