Abstract :
Even though RTP was originally designed for temperatures from 700 to 1200°C the processes with lower temperatures gain more and more importance. Steady state temperatures down to 300°C make temperature control from 200°C necessary. These processes occur in silicon and in compound semiconductor production. The problems of working at low temperature and the reflow of Au-Sn solder bumps as an example are presented.
