Abstract

Annealing technology is capable of heating a wafer on which a copper film is formed at a desired temperature within a short period of time. A light-shielding plate 106 of SiC (silicon carbide) exhibiting a flat emissivity irrespective of the wavelengths and emitting light over a wide band of wavelengths is interposed between the wafer 1 on which is formed a copper film having a high light reflection factor and lamps 102. The lamps 102 are turned on in this state so that the light-shielding plate 106 is heated, first, and, then, the wafer 1 is heated by light radiated from the light-shielding plate 106 that is heated, thereby to anneal the copper film.
