UV Irradiation Apparatus Having UV Lamp-Shared Multiple Process Stations

摘要

A UV irradiation apparatus for treating substrates includes: at least two process stations each provided with a UV transmissive window; at least one electric UV lamp using two electrodes in a gas tube extending over the UV transmissive windows of the process stations aligned along the gas tube and shared by the process stations; a UV transmissive zone disposed between the UV lamp and the process stations and provided with reflectors; and shutters for blocking UV light from being transmitted to the respective process stations independently.
