Abstract: A method for an ion implantation is provided. First, a non-parallel ion beam is provided. Thereafter, a relative motion between a workpiece and the non-parallel ion beam, so as to enable each region of the workpiece to be implanted by different portions of the non-parallel ion beam successively. Particularly, when at least one three-dimensional structure is located on the upper surface of the workpiece, both the top surface and the side surface of the three-dimensional structure may be implanted properly by the non-parallel ion beam when the workpiece is moved across the non-parallel ion beam one and only one times. Herein, the non-parallel ion beam can be a divergent ion beam or a convergent ion beam (both may be viewed as the integrated divergent beam), also can be generated directly from an ion source or is modified from a parallel ion beam, a divergent ion beam or a convergent ion beam.

Abstract: In an exemplary process for lower dose rate ion implantation of a work piece, an ion beam may be generated using an ion source and an extraction manipulator. The extraction manipulator may be positioned at a gap distance from an exit aperture of the ion source. A current of the ion beam exiting the extraction manipulator may be maximized when the extraction manipulator is positioned at an optimal gap distance from the exit aperture. The gap distance at which the extraction manipulator is positioned from the exit aperture may differ from the optimal gap distance by at least 10 percent. A first potential may be applied to a first set of electrodes. An x-dimension of the ion beam may increase as the ion beam passes through the first set of electrodes. The work piece may be positioned in the ion beam to implant ions into the work piece.

Abstract: In forming a punch-through stopper region in a fin field effect transistor (finFET) device, a substrate may be etched to form a pair of trenches that define a fin structure. A portion of a first dose of ions may be implanted into the substrate through a bottom wall of each trench to form a pair of first dopant regions that at least partially extend under a channel region of the fin structure. The substrate at the bottom wall of each trench may be etched to increase a depth of each trench. Etching the substrate at the bottom wall of each trench may remove a portion of each first dopant region under each trench. A remaining portion of the pair of first dopant regions under the fin structure may at least partially define the punch-through stopper region of the finFET device.
