    摘要: A method includes generating an ion beam having ions at a first charge state, accelerating the ions at the first charge state to a final energy, altering the first charge state to a second charge state for some of said ions, the second charge state less than the first charge state, providing an ion beam having ions at the second charge state and parasitic beamlets having ions at a charge state different than the second charge state, directing the ion beam having ions at the second charge state towards a wafer, and directing the parasitic beamlets away from the wafer. An ion implanter having a charge exchange apparatus is also provided.

    摘要: Terminal structures of an ion implanter having insulated conductors with dielectric fins are disclosed. In one particular exemplary embodiment, the terminal structures of an ion implanter may be realized with insulated conductors with one or more dielectric fins. For example, the ion implanter may comprise an ion source configured to provide an ion beam. The ion implanter may also comprise a terminal structure defining a cavity, wherein the ion source may be at least partially disposed within the cavity. The ion implanter may further comprise an insulated conductor having at least one dielectric fin disposed proximate an exterior portion of the terminal structure to modify an electric field.

    摘要: Techniques for detecting ion beam contamination in an ion implantation system and interlocking same are disclosed. An ion beam is generated. One or more ion detectors located at trajectories off of that of the ion beam. Ion current levels detected by the one or more off-trajectory detectors are used to calculate a level of ion beam charge contamination. If contamination exceeds a predetermined level, process interlock may occur to prevent dosimetry errors.
