Abstract
An apparatus and a method for detecting the temperature of a substrate, and for controlling the radiation-annealing of the substrate, for example, measures the intensity of infrared light from the substrate when the substrate is irradiated by measuring infrared light and also when the substrate is not irradiated by the infrared light. The temperature is calculated from the transmissivity and emissivity of the substrate, which are calculated from the intensity measurements.
