It is arranged so that ions can be analyzed accurately and with high sensitivity. A first electrode 11 is provided on the outer periphery of a dielectric cylindrical body 13 and a second electrode 12 is placed inside the cylindrical body 13 leaving a clearance between itself and the inner surface of the cylindrical body 13. When an AC high voltage is impressed across the first electrode 11 and second electrode 12, a barrier discharge occurs within the cylindrical body 13. When a distal end portion 12a of the second electrode 12 projects outwardly from the distal end of the cylindrical body 13, a thermal equilibrium plasma P having a low electron temperature is generated outwardly of the distal end of the cylindrical body 13 without a plasma jet ascribable to the barrier discharge emerging outwardly from the distal end of the cylindrical body 13. By exposing a sample S to the thermal equilibrium plasma P, particles (atoms, molecules) desorbed from the sample S undergo soft ionization without being decomposed or polymerized. The ions generated are introduced to a mass analyzer 50.

Provided is an ion generating apparatus. The ion generating apparatus includes opposed electrodes connected to a high-frequency power supply, and hence, even in a case where a cathode filament is broken, hydride gas can be ionized to generate hydrogen ion. Thus, a fluorine compound deposited in a source housing is reduced in vacuum, and gas containing fluorine generated due to the above-mentioned reduction reaction is discharged with a vacuum pump.

A proposed indirect heated cathode has an inner tubular shell inserted into an arc chamber for creating plasma by a filament, which is disposed in the inner tubular shell and then covered by an end cap. There are at least two outstanding talons disposed on the end surface of the inner tubular shell, and a step gap is configured on between the end surface of the inner tubular shell and the outstanding talons. The end cap can be lodged into the step gap, and fixed. Therefore, the end cap can be easily uncovered from the end of the inner tubular shell, as a result to simplify the replacement of the filament.

An apparatus for producing negative ions including an emitter coated with an ionic liquid room-temperature molten salt, an electrode positioned downstream relative to the emitter, a power supply that applies a voltage to the emitter with respect to the electrode. The power supply is sufficient to generate a stable high brightness beam of negative ions having minimal chromatic and spherical aberrations in the beam. An electrostatic lens and deflector is used to focus and direct the beam to a target.

An ion source is disclosed for providing a range of ion beams consisting of either ionized clusters, such as B2Hx+, B5Hx+, B10Hx+, B18Hx+, P4+ or As4+, or monomer ions, such as Ge+, In+, Sb+, B+, As+, and P+, to enable cluster implants and monomers implants into silicon substrates for the purpose of manufacturing CMOS devices, and to do so with high productivity. The range of ion beams is generated by a universal ion source in accordance with the present invention which is configured to operate in two discrete modes: an electron impact mode, which efficiently produces ionized clusters, and an arc discharge mode, which efficiently produces monomer ions.

摘要:
A method of enhancing a material layer on a substrate is described. The method comprises establishing a gas cluster ion beam (GCIB), and treating a host region of the substrate by exposing the host region of the substrate to the GCIB. The treatment with the GCIB may selectively remove an undesirable specie and/or introduce a desirable specie to the host region.
