AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In the prior art, temperature non-uniformity exists during substrate annealing, resulting in poor surface quality. In particular, in vertical coil annealing furnaces, uneven radial heating of the substrate affects the surface improvement effect.

Method used

Design a substrate annealing fixture that stacks multiple sub-fixtures vertically, dividing them into accommodating slots of different inner diameters, and uses the heating capacity of a vertically wound heating coil to achieve uniform radial heating of the substrate. The substrate is made of alumina, silicon carbide, or ceramic materials and is equipped with a temperature measuring ring and a protective cover to ensure temperature control and protection.

Benefits of technology

This method achieves uniform radial heating during substrate annealing, improves surface quality, reduces temperature difference, and enhances annealing efficiency and surface improvement.
