Abstract:
A 300 mm long flash lamp based on a water-vortex stabilized high-pressure high-power arc lamp has been developed to meet future requirements in semiconductor rapid thermal processing. This flash lamp is much more powerful than any other commercially available flash lamp. Typical operating parameters are peak currents of up to 50 kA and pulse widths in the order of 0.5 to 2 ms FWHM.
