发明名称 THERMAL CYCLING MODULE AND PROCESS USING RADIANT HEAT
摘要 In general, the present invention provides a single thermal cycling module for baking and chilling a substrate, such as a wafer, that is in thermal contact with a foil heater, a heat exchanger, and a radiation heater. The radiation heater thermally heats a fluid contained by the heat exchanger, which in turn thermally bakes the substrate at a desired temperature. When the radiation heater is deactivated, a fluid circulates through the heat exchanger to chill the substrate. The foil heater assists the baking and chilling phases by elevating the temperature of the substrate when necessary to prevent or regulate temperature fluctuations of the substrate temperature. Both the radiation heater and the foil heater can provide several zones for varying the heat applied across the substrate, and a single fluid temperature is provided to the heat exchanger for both baking and chilling cycles.
