Abstract

See full text

The apparatus of the present invention provides for the dual use of a UV source to heat a substrate and to facilitate photochemistry necessary for the treatment of the substrate. The present invention also provides a method for processing a substrate by heating the substrate to a temperature above ambient via UV radiation at a first power level and conditioning the substrate by exposing the substrate to a photochemically (UV) reactive chemical, or a reactive chemical that can react with a compound on the surface of the substrate to form a photochemically reactive compound, in the presence of UV radiation at a second power level.
