Annealing
At Danchip we have three furnaces and an RTP (Rapid thermal annealing) that can be used annealing: C1, C3, Noble furnace and Jipelec RTP. Annealing normally takes place in an N2 atmosphere. PECVD PBSG glass is annealed in a wet atmosphere which will also oxidize the silicon substrate.
The recipes for oxidation are made so that a 20 minutes N2 annealing step is included after the oxiation step.
