    摘要: An ion source that utilizes exited and/or atomic gas injection is disclosed. In an ion beam application, the source gas can be used directly, as it is traditionally supplied. Alternatively or additionally, the source gas can be altered by passing it through a remote plasma source prior to being introduced to the ion source chamber. This can be used to create excited neutrals, heavy ions, metastable molecules or multiply charged ions. In another embodiment, multiple gasses are used, where one or more of the gasses are passed through a remote plasma generator. In certain embodiments, the gasses are combined in a single plasma generator before being supplied to the ion source chamber. In plasma immersion applications, plasma is injected into the process chamber through one or more additional gas injection locations. These injection locations allow the influx of additional plasma, produced by remote plasma sources external to the process chamber.

    摘要: A system for producing a mass analyzed ion beam for implanting into a workpiece, includes an extraction plate having a set of apertures having a longitudinal axis of the aperture. The set of apertures are configured to extract ions from an ion source to form a plurality of beamlets. The system also includes an analyzing magnet region configured to provide a magnetic field to deflect ions in the beamlets in a first direction that is generally perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the apertures. The system further includes a mass analysis plate having a set of apertures configured to transmit first ion species having a first mass/charge ratio and to block second ion species having a second mass/charge ratio and a workpiece holder configured to move with respect to the mass analysis plate along the first direction.

    摘要: An energy contamination detection apparatus includes a membrane and a charge collection plate disposed at a distance from the membrane. The membrane is configured to receive an ion beam and allow a portion of the ion beam having energy levels above a desired energy level to pass therethrough toward the charge collection plate and absorb or reflect portions of the ion beam having energy levels at or below the desired energy level. A voltage source is electrically coupled to the charge collection plate for providing a bias voltage to the charge collection plate. A detection circuit is coupled to the charge collection plate and is configured to detect energy contamination based on an amount of charge collected on the charge collection plate.
