ABSTRACT:
A process of and related apparatus for achieving laser annealing of film-like surface layers of chemical vapor deposited silicon nitride and silicon carbide to relieve their inherent residual stresses. A laser beam is used to anneal the layers, in conjunction with a photoacoustic gas cell and related beam modulating means for utilizing a photoacoustic effect principal for monitoring, detecting and effectuating beam control as needed during the laser annealing process.
