Abstract
The invention relates to a method for calibrating thermal processing equipment used for heat treatment of a multilayer substrate, in particular a multilayer semiconductor substrate. A calibration test profile is determined by processing a calibration test substrate according to thermal process parameters that produce multilayer substrates having an even thickness profile, and/or having reduced slip lines and/or reduced wafer deformation, and/or having other desired and predetermined properties. Then a particular thermal processing equipment is calibrated by determining thermal process parameters for that equipment so that a test substrate processed with these parameters will have the determined calibration test profile.
