Abstract: A batch processing oven comprising a processing chamber and a rack configured to be positioned in the processing chamber. The rack is configured to support a plurality of substrates and a plurality of panels in a stacked manner such that one or more substrates of the plurality of substrates are positioned between at least one pair of adjacent panels of the plurality panels. Vertical gaps separate each substrate of the one or more substrates from an adjacent substrate or panel on either side of the substrate.

Abstract: The invention provides an apparatus for treating surfaces of a container. The apparatus comprises an openable reaction chamber housing, an exhaust escapement and an electrode assembly. The electrode assembly comprises a probe assembly coupled with a power source, the probe assembly comprising an elongate wand body, and a helically configured primary electrode and a helically configured counter electrode disposed about an outer circumferential surface of the wand body in an alternating helical configuration. The elongate wand body has a fluid passageway defined therewithin, and one or more outlet openings that are formed on an outer circumferential surface of the wand body and that extend inward through said outer circumferential surface and upto the fluid passageway. One or both of the primary electrode and the counter electrode may be energizable by the power source.

Abstract: A solder reflow oven includes a processing chamber that defines an enclosure. The enclosure includes a spindle configured to support a substrate and rotate the substrate about a central axis of the processing chamber. The spindle is also configured to move vertically along the central axis and position the substrate at different locations within the enclosure. The oven further includes a chemical delivery tube configured to direct a chemical vapor into the enclosure, a lamp assembly configured to heat a top surface of the substrate, and a lift assembly configured to move the spindle along the central axis.

Abstract: A substrate carrier for a parallel wafer processing reactor supports a plurality of substrates. The substrate carrier includes a plurality of susceptors, which may be thermal plates or annular rings that are arranged horizontally in a vertical stack. The substrates are mounted between pairs of susceptors on two or more supports provided around the outer periphery of the susceptors. The number of substrates mounted between each pair of susceptors may the same or different but is two or more between at least one pair of susceptors.
