Abstract:
A substrate, thermal treatment assembly and method of operating the thermal treatment assembly are described for controlling the temperature of a substrate. An electrical potential is applied across two or more locations on the substrate in order to generate an electrical current through a portion of the substrate, thereby altering a temperature of the substrate. The electrical current may dissipate electrical energy in the form of thermal energy due to the intrinsic resistance of the portion of substrate to the flow of electrical current.
