FLash Lamp Annealing -FLA Process Time ~ ms Process Time > 1 s Only surface is heated No cooling needed Fast processing Less total energy consumption (saves up to 80 %) Substrate Complete substrate is heated Cooling needed Slow processing Expensive and complex equipment for inline process Common Heating AnnealingFIGURE 1: Schema of temperature distribution in a solid sample for common thermal annealing (right) and flash lamp annealing (left).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
