    摘要: A rapid thermal annealing (“RTA”) process providing for an RTA equipment is disclosed. The RTA equipment has a pyrometer providing for measuring an operation parameter, e.g., a temperature of the RTA process. The RTA process comprises steps of proceeding a first RTA step to a wafer in the RTA equipment, then comparing a measured value of the operation parameter with a reference range of value of the operation parameter, thereafter proceeding a second RTA step to the wafer in the RTA equipment when the measured value of the operation parameter is in between the reference range of value of the operation parameter. When the measured value of the operation parameter is out of the reference range of value of the operation parameter, the RTA equipment is turned off, and the wafer is unloaded from the RTA equipment and loaded into another RTA equipment to complete the RTA process.
