Thermal processing includes a diversity of processes where high temperatures are used. Hence, annealing may be necessary to activate dopants after ion implantation or to alloy contacts after metal deposition, while treatment in a chemically active atmosphere is used to change the surface layer, e.g., by diffusion of dopants and thermal oxidation of a Si surface. |
