Apparatus for heating substrate having electrically-conductive and non-electrically-conductive portions

摘要

An apparatus includes (a) a device which is capable of selectively generating heat in electrically-conductive material without substantially generating heat in non-electrically-conductive material, (b) a device capable of heating non-electrically-conductive material, and (c) an insulating shield between the two devices to help focus the energy generated by at least one of the devices.
