ABSTRACT:
A UV irradiation apparatus, which includes a UV lamp installed in a chamber for generating UV rays; a vacuum chuck installed below the UV lamp for supporting and moving a wafer; and, a reflector surrounding the UV lamp for concentrating UV rays on the vacuum chuck. The apparatus further includes heating blocks for controlling the temperature at both sides of the vacuum chuck. Thus, it is possible to maintain an essentially constant temperature around the wafer supported by the vacuum chuck. As a result of the temperature control, when a protection tape attached to the front side of the wafer is irradiated with UV rays, an adhesive of the protective tape can be effectively degraded by a chemically reaction under optimum conditions, to thereby easily detach the protection tape from the wafer.
