Abstract
A dopant is diffused into wafers of semiconducting material in an appts. comprising a tube passing through a furnace. The tube extends at both its ends beyond the furnace, and it has in a hot zone of homogeneous temp. a dopant source and wafers of material to be treated. The appts. also includes means for introducing, into one end of the tube, a neutral gas under pressure, means of opening and closing that end of the tube, the opening having near enough the same dia. as the tube, and means of limiting the dispersion of the dopant in the gaseous phase outside the zone of homogeneous temp. This eliminates the expense involved both, in sealed- and in open-tube techniques, whilst maintaining their advantages, such as purity and uniformity of prod.
