  • Publication number: 20130294756
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus for heat-treating a substrate, and more particularly to an apparatus for substrate treatment to perform a heat treatment of a substrate for a flat panel display panel. An apparatus for substrate treatment according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises a processing chamber having a substrate treatment space; a heating housing having a heating lamp that emits radiant energy and a reflecting block that reflects radiant energy emitted from the heating lamp; and a window that maintains a sealing between the processing chamber and the heating housing and transmits the radiant energy to a substrate.

  • Publication number: 20120213499
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a heater block for a rapid thermal processing apparatus, wherein a plurality of lamp pockets (21) for accommodating heating lamps are arranged, and cooling water inlet ports (111a, 111b) and cooling water outlet ports (112a, 112b) are arranged such that the lamp pockets (21) are cooled by the flow of the cooling water fed via the cooling water inlet ports (111a, 111b) and discharged via the cooling water outlet ports (112a, 112b). In detail, the cooling water inlet ports (111a, 111b) and the cooling water outlet ports (112a, 112b) are separately arranged into an upper layer and a lower layer, such that the flow of the cooling water fed via the cooling water inlet ports (111a, 111b) and discharged via the cooling water outlet ports (112a, 112b) is divided into an upper layer and a lower layer. Preferably, cooling water dispersion means (140) are installed at entries of the cooling water inlet ports (111a, 111b) so as to disperse the cooling water in a lateral direction.

  • Publication number: 20120207456
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a heater block for a rapid thermal processing apparatus, and more particularly, to a heater block in which heating lamps are densely arranged in a tessellation. The tessellation has a structure such that the plurality of heating lamps are arranged at right angles to form a zigzag line, and the thus-formed zigzagged line is repeated such that the zigzagged line is combined with the adjacent zigzagged line. According to the present invention, a temperature gradient caused by a void between heating lamps is prevented, and heating lamps are densely arranged to increase heat density for a heat radiation area as opposed to conventional heater blocks, thus achieving improved heat treatment efficiency using less energy.
