Abstract :
Dry and wet oxidation film using single wafer rapid thermal furnace (SWRTF) has been characterized as a function of temperature and time. For dry oxidation, an effect of partial pressure of oxygen was also investigated. Wet oxidation was performed using steam simply generated by heating a water canister that is located near process chamber. In both cases of dry and wet oxidation using SWRTF, excellent oxide film thickness and repeatability were obtained.
