ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for supporting a workpiece has an enclosure, a means for reducing the pressure and a platen on which the workpiece is mounted. A heating mechanism is located within the platen and the platen is coated with a high emissivity material, which facilitates the radiative heat transfer between the platen and the workpiece. Consequently, the workpiece can be rapidly raised to a specific temperature. This apparatus is particularly applicable to the supporting of a semiconductor wafer within a vacuum system.
