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. Annealing in metallurgy, and material science, is a heat treatment wherein, a material is altered, causing a change in its properties such as strength, and hardness. It is a process that produces conditions by heating, and maintaining a suitable temperature, and then cooling. Annealing is used to induce softness, relieve internal stress, and to refine the structure.
