By extending the infrared lamp into the chamber, the stainless steel walls absorb the heat produced by light in the infrared range. The whole chamber including any parts hanging inside is heated by direct or reflected infrared rays. The low thermal conductivity of stainless steel which is a handicap when baking out externally is an advantage with internal IR bakeout since it retards outward heat diffusion. This technique yields a faster, more uniform and convenient bakeout of the vacuum chamber.
