ABSTRACT:
A heat treatment apparatus comprising a reaction vessel located in a vertical furnace, and a ladder boat for mounting a plurality of semiconductor wafers one above another in parallel with each other. A vertical mounting pitch of mounting the wafers on the ladder boat is set at, e.g., 40 mm. When a treatment temperature is 1000.degree. C., intra-surface temperature differences of the wafers, objects to be treated, can be suppressed to 10.degree. C. at the time of passing 900.degree. C. even when 600.degree. C. is raised to 100.degree. C. at a 100.degree. C./min rate, whereby no slip occurs in large-diameter semiconductor wafers of an above 250 mm diameter even with high temperature increases at high rates in heat treatments, as of oxidation, diffusion, etc.
