The Tempress diffusion system is a modular horizontal furnace designed to process silicon wafers as part of the manufacturing technology of semiconductor, optical, MEMS, and solar devices. After the initial Boron Doping, there will be a high concentration impurity profile at the wafer surface. The Drive in process is used to more evenly distribute, and drive in, the dopant throughout the silicon. The tube also has wet, and dry, oxidation capabilities.

Checkout procedure

1. Create a Help desk Ticket requesting training.
2. A process engineer will schedule a time for initial training. After completing training the user can attempt a checkout session. It may be necessary for some users to participate in more than one training session, prior to attempting check out.
3. Schedule a checkout session with a tool engineer via the Help desk Ticket system. If this checkout is successful, the engineer will authorize you on the tool.
