摘要: An adjustable shadow mask implantation system comprising: an ion source configured to provide ions; a first occlusion mask having a first set of elongated openings substantially parallel to a first axis; and a second occlusion mask having a second set of elongated openings substantially parallel to the first axis, wherein the first occlusion mask and the second occlusion mask are configured such that the first set of elongated openings overlap with, but are offset from, the second set of elongated openings to form a resulting set of elongated openings through which ions from the ion source are selectively allowed to pass therethrough to a substrate where they are implanted, each elongated opening of the resulting set being smaller than each elongated opening of the first and second sets.

摘要: Herein, an improved technique for processing a substrate is disclosed. In one particular exemplary embodiment, the technique may be realized as a method for processing a substrate. The method may comprise directing an ion beam comprising a plurality of ions along an ion beam path, from an ion source to the substrate; disposing at least a portion of a mask in the ion beam path, between the ion source and the substrate; and translating one of the substrate and the mask relative to other one of the substrate and the mask.

摘要: An improved, lower cost method of processing substrates, such as to create solar cells is disclosed. In addition, a modified substrate carrier is disclosed. The carriers typically used to carry the substrates are modified so as to serve as shadow masks for a patterned implant. In some embodiments, various patterns cart be created using the carriers such that different process steps can be performed on the substrate by changing the carrier or the position with the carrier, in addition, since the alignment of the substrate to the carrier is critical, the carrier may contain alignment features to insure that the substrate is positioned properly on the carrier, in some embodiments, gravity is used to held the substrate on the carrier, and therefore, the ions are directed so that the ion beam travels upward toward the bottom side of the carrier.

摘要: An improved, lower cost method of processing substrates, such as to create solar cells is disclosed. The doped regions are created on the substrate, using a mas or without the use of lithography or masks. After the implantation is complete, visual recognition is used to determine the exact region that was implanted. This information can then be used by subsequent process steps to maintain this alignment. This information can also be fed back to the ion implantation equipment to modify the implant parameters. These techniques can also be used in other ion implanter applications.

摘要: Herein, an improved technique for processing a substrate is disclosed. In one particular exemplary embodiment, the technique may be achieved using a mask for processing the substrate. The mask may be incorporated into a substrate processing system such as, for example, an ion implantation system. The mask may comprise one or more first apertures disposed in a first row; and one or more second apertures disposed in a second row, each row extending along a width direction of the mask, wherein the one or more first apertures and the one or more second apertures are non-uniform.

摘要: Techniques for manufacturing solar cells are disclosed. In one particular exemplary embodiment, the technique may comprise disposing a mask upstream of the solar cell, the mask comprising a plurality of fiiaments spaced apart from one another to define at least one aperture; directing a ribbon ion beam of desired species toward the solar cell to ion implant a portion of the solar cell defined by the at least one aperture of the mask; and orienting the ribbon ion beam such that longer cross-section dimension of the ribbon beam is perpendicular to the aperture in one plane.
