    摘要: A decel lens assembly (9) located between the mass selection flight tube and the substrate holder comprises a first electrode (65) at the substrate potential, a second electrode (60) at the flight tube potential and a field electrode (61) between the two at a negative potential to provide focusing. The axial spacing in the beam direction between the first and second electrodes is less than the smallest transverse dimension of the field electrode. The decel lens assembly (9) is mounted directly opposite the outlet from the process chamber to the vacuum pump to maximize evacuation efficiency. An additional screening electrode (56) is provided between the second electrode of the decel lens assembly and the exit aperture of the mass selector. A perforated screening cylinder (54) is mounted on the light tube with the second electrode of the lens assembly mounted at the down beam end of the cylinder. A first electrode has a cylindrical screening flange extending around the field electrode. A further screening electrode is located at the entrance to the electron confinement tube of the PFS system.

    摘要: An ion implanter for implanting ions in a target substrate is arranged to scan the ion beam at the point of extraction of the beam from the ion source. The ion beam extraction assembly includes a tectrode construction in which an extraction electrode adjacent the ion source aperture is split into two halves. A differential voltage is applied across the two halves of the extraction electrode to deflect the ion beam being extracted from the ion source electrostatically. The plane of deflection is arranged to coincide with the plane if dispersion of the ions in a mass analyser magnet downstream of the extraction point and the deflected beam of ions of desired mass/charge ratio is still brought to focus at a common mass selection slit at the exit of the analyser magnet.
