The acceptance for the Multipurpose Anneal furnace was performed in November 2014 by ATV Technologie.



Recipe: "vr_dryOx_1000C_120min_150_5Wafer_D1_mit_Inliner_oPurgering.ATV"

Oxidation time: 80 min

Oxidation temperature: 1050 oC (all temoperature zones)

O2 flow: 1 slm

The oxidation has been done with 150 mm wafer, and with 30 wafers in the furnace.

Wafer 4 (towards the door), wafer 16 and wafer 28 (towards the service area) were measured.

Results

The oxide thickness has been measured in 13 points on each wafer using the M-2000V ellipsometer.
