Abstract
Abstract The present invention relates to an infrared heater which has a heat conduction plate (52) with a resistance heating element (53) disposed below the heat conduction plate (53) for heating the heat conduction plate (52). The upper surface of the heat conduction plate (52) has an infrared radiation layer (55) formed thereon, which receives heat from the heat conduction plate (52) and emits infrared radiation. The infrared radiation layer (55) is formed of alumina and has a relatively narrow temperature distribution over its surface. <IMAGE>
