Abstract:
Apparatus and methods for heating and cooling a plurality of substrate wafers are provided. LED lamps are positioned against the back sides of a plurality of cold plates. In some embodiments, wafers are supported on a wafer lift which can move all wafers together. In some embodiments, wafers are supported on independent lift pins which can move individual wafers for heating and cooling. Some embodiments of the disclosure provide for decreased time between wafer switching in a processing chamber.
