A process for annealing large-area multilayer bodies by supplying a quantity
of
energy at an annealing rate of at least 1 C./s. To suppress temperature inhomogeneities
during the annealing, different partial quantities of the quantity of energy are
supplied to the layers of the multilayer body with a local and temporal resolution.
The multilayer body is annealed in a container which has a base and a cover made
from glass-ceramic. The process is used to produce a thin-film solar module.
