Abstract
A process for producing a nitrided oxide layer on a silicon semiconductor substrate includes introducing a multiplicity of wafers into an atmospheric batch furnace, carrying out an oxidation step at a first predetermined temperature, carrying out a nitriding step at a second predetermined temperature, and carrying out a reoxidation step at a third predetermined temperature. The wafers are then cooled and removed from the atmospheric batch furnace.
