Abstract
A flashlight-radiant apparatus is constructed of a housing defining an object-handling space and an irradiation space located adjacent to the object-handling space, a plurality of flash discharge lamps provided side by side in an upper part of the irradiation space, a gas-discharging member provided in the upper part of the irradiation space for controlling the atmosphere of the housing, and an object-supporting table movable reciprocally between the object-handling space and the irradiation space in the housing and equipped with built-in subsidiary heating. An object, for example, a silicon wafer is preheated on the object-supporting table while the object-supporting table is located in the object-handling space. The flashlight-radiant apparatus has a simple structure, enjoys a high level of handling safety, assures long service life for its flash discharge lamps, and is suitable particularly for annealing semiconductor wafers.
