A fiber laser system enables a method for treating a semiconductor material by preheating a wafer for laser annealing and gas immersion laser doping by a laser source. A long wave length fiber laser having a Gaussian or similar profile is applied in a full-width ribbon beam across an incident wafer. Preferably the wavelength is greater than 1 µm (micron) and preferably a Yb doped fiber laser is used. The process is performed in a suitable environment which may include doping species. The process ensures the temperature gradient arising during processing does not exceed a value that results in fracture of the wafer while also reducing the amount of laser radiation, required to achieve controlled surface melting, recrystallization and cooling. |
