That&rsquo;s why we&rsquo;ve moved toward infrared (IR) heating lamps instead of those old-school resistive ovens. The logic is simple: IR puts the heat directly into the wafer. But here&rsquo;s the catch. The whole &ldquo;green&rdquo; benefit disappears if your control loop is sloppy. That’s where your thermocouple earns its keep.</p>
