Method for the treatment of semiconductor substrates as well as an oven-boat system for this purpose. The oven is embodied as a vertical oven and it is aimed to simultaneously treat a number of substrates arranged one above the other in a boat. To carry out the deposition and such processes at raised temperatures as uniformly as possible, that is, so that each semiconductor substrate substantially undergoes the same treatment, it is proposed on the one hand to vary the ratio of the volume limited by two consecutive armrests and on the other hand the volume limited by screening off the process area and the edge of the substrates from the insertion end of the gas to the discharge end of the gas that flows through the oven. |
