摘要:
A system for inhibiting the transport of contaminant particles with an ion beam includes an electric field generator for generating an electric field relative to a path of travel for the ion beam. A particle located in the ion beam and in a region of the electric field is charged to a polarity according to the ion beam, so that the electric field may urge the charged particle out of the ion beam.
摘要:
A cathode system having a cathode element configured to extend through an aperture in a wall of an arc chamber of an ion implanter system. A gas flow through a spacing between the cathode element and the aperture is restricted by a restriction member. A method of ionizing a source gas and a cathode element incorporating the restriction member are also provided.
摘要:
A sealing system is disclosed. One such sealing system includes a first vacuum chamber and a second vacuum chamber. The sealing system includes a first sealing unit having a proximal end and a distal end, the proximal end of the first sealing unit disposed on the first vacuum chamber. The sealing system includes a second sealing unit having a distal end and a proximal end, the distal end of the second sealing unit disposed on the distal end of the first sealing unit and the proximal end of the second sealing unit disposed on the second vacuum chamber. One of the sealing units is concave, while the other is convex. The sealing system also includes a first o-ring, a second o-ring, and a third o-ring.
