What it is

The Hitachi Kokusai DD 853 V is a vertical diffusion furnace.[1][2]

How it works

General reference — not yet source-verified

A vertical diffusion furnace processes wafers inside a heated vertical tube or chamber, where controlled thermal exposure drives oxidation, diffusion, and annealing steps.
