    摘要: A multistage quadrupole lens system in an ion implantation apparatus includes a first quadrupole lens and a third quadrupole lens. A first bore radius of the first quadrupole lens may be smaller than a third bore radius of the third quadrupole lens. The multistage quadrupole lens system may further include a second quadrupole lens placed between the first quadrupole lens and the third quadrupole lens. A second bore radius of the second quadrupole lens may take a value lying between the first bore radius of the first quadrupole lens and the third bore radius of the third quadrupole lens (i.e., an intermediate value between them).

    摘要: An antenna cover that protects a surface of an antenna provided in a plasma chamber and exciting an electric field with a high frequency to an inner portion of the plasma chamber is provided. In the antenna cover, the thickness of the antenna cover in at least one direction among directions orthogonal to the surface of the antenna is different according to a position on the surface, such that space dependency of an electric potential on an external surface of the antenna cover decreases. In the antenna cover, the thickness of at least one direction may be changed along an extension direction of the antenna.

    摘要: Provided is a beam irradiation apparatus including: a beam scanner that is configured such that a charged particle beam is reciprocatively scanned in a scanning direction; a measurement device that is capable of measuring an angular component of charged particles incident into a region of a measurement target; and a data processor that calculates effective irradiation emittance of the charged particle beam using results measured by the measurement device. The measurement device measures a time dependent value for angular distribution of the charged particle beam. The data processor transforms time information included in the time dependent value for the angular distribution to position information and thus calculates the effective irradiation emittance. The effective irradiation emittance represents emittance of a virtual beam bundle, the virtual beam bundle being formed by summing portions of the charged particle beam which are incident into the region of the measurement target.

    摘要: An ion implantation apparatus includes a beam scanning unit and a beam parallelizing unit arranged downstream thereof. The beam scanning unit has a scan origin in a central part of the scanning unit on a central axis of an incident ion beam. The beam parallelizing unit has a focal point of a parallelizing lens at the scan origin. The ion implantation apparatus is configured such that a focal position of the incident beam into the scanning unit is located upstream of the scan origin along the central axis of the incident beam. The focal position of the incident beam into the scanning unit is adjusted to be at a position upstream of the scan origin along the central axis of the incident beam such that a divergence phenomenon caused by the space charge effect in an exiting ion beam from the parallelizing unit is compensated.

    摘要: An ion implantation apparatus includes a beamline device for transporting ions from an ion source to an implantation processing chamber. The implantation processing chamber includes a workpiece holder for mechanically scanning a workpiece with respect to a beam irradiation region. The beamline device may be operated under a first implantation setting configuration suitable for transport of a low energy/high current beam for high-dose implantation into the workpiece, or a second implantation setting configuration suitable for transport of a high energy/low current beam for low-dose implantation into the workpiece. A beam center trajectory being a reference in a beamline is equal from the ion source to the implantation processing chamber in the first implantation setting configuration and the second implantation setting configuration.

    摘要: An ion generation method uses a direct current discharge ion source provided with an arc chamber formed of a high melting point material, and includes: generating ions by causing molecules of a source gas to collide with thermoelectrons in the arc chamber and producing plasma discharge; and causing radicals generated in generating ions to react with a liner provided to cover an inner wall of the arc chamber at least partially. The liner is formed of a material more reactive to radicals generated as the source gas is dissociated than the material of the arc chamber.
