What it is

The Mattson AST 2800 RTP is a rapid thermal process system.[2][1]

The AST 2800 belongs to the thermal and diffusion equipment category.[1]

How it works

General reference — not yet source-verified

A rapid thermal process system heats semiconductor substrates quickly and controls temperature with a short high-temperature cycle.

Rapid thermal processing tools are used to apply tightly managed thermal exposure in a process chamber rather than long furnace-style residence times.

Where it fits in the process flow

General reference — not yet source-verified

The Mattson AST 2800 RTP sits in the thermal processing portion of a semiconductor fabrication flow.

Rapid thermal processing is used after earlier wafer preparation steps and before later device-processing steps that depend on controlled heat treatment.

Applications

The Mattson AST 2800 RTP is used for thermal and diffusion processing tasks in semiconductor manufacturing.[1]

The AST 2800 is a rapid thermal processing system rather than a general-purpose furnace.[1][4]
