Abstract

Rapid isothermal processing (RIP) based on incoherent radiation as the source of energy is emerging as a practical alternative to furnace processing. In this paper, we show that in addition to the well established short time processing feature, RIP can also be used as a reduced substrate temperature processing technique.
