ABSTRACT:
A quartz boat is formed with a plurality of spaced, parallel rods having slots for supporting a series of semi-conductor wafers in a generally edgewise, spaced, parallel position. The slots continue to the ends of the rods, and the cross members supporting the rods are spaced inwardly from the rod ends, such that a series of boats may be arranged with the rods in end-to-end relation and the wafer space between adjacent boats is the same as the wafer space in the middle of a boat. The boat is also provided with a pair of tubes parallel to the rods for receiving a pickup fork.
