Abstract:
Embodiments disclosed herein generally include annealing chambers. The annealing chambers allow for high throughput without sacrificing wafer-to-wafer and within wafer uniformity. The annealing chamber includes a transport system, a substrate carrier, and a plurality of thermal sources. The transport system is magnetically coupled to the substrate carrier. The transport system moves the substrate carrier along a path. A substrate supported by the substrate carrier is annealed by the thermal sources. The annealing chamber described herein allows for a higher throughput of substrate (alternatively referred to as a wafer) annealing compared to furnace annealing chambers.
