    摘要: A method and apparatus for cleaning residue from components of semiconductor processing systems used in the fabrication of microelectronic devices. To effectively remove residue, the components are contacted with a gas-phase reactive material for sufficient time and under sufficient conditions to at least partially remove the residue. When the residue and the material from which the components are constructed are different, the gas-phase reactive material is selectively reactive with the residue and minimally reactive with the materials from which the components of the ion implanter are constructed. When the residue and the material from which the components are constructed is the same, then the gas-phase reactive material may be reactive with both the residue and the component part. Particularly preferred gas-phase reactive materials utilized comprise gaseous compounds such as XeF2, XeF4, XeF6, NF3, IF5, IF7, SF6, C2F6, F2, CF4, KrF2, Cl2, HCl, ClF3, ClO2, N2F4, N2F2, N3F, NFH2, NH2F, HOBr, Br2, C3F8, C4F8, C5F8, CHF3, CH2F2, CH3F, COF2, HF, C2HF5, C2H2F4, C2H3F3, C2H4F2, C2H5F, C3F6, and organochlorides such as COCl2, CCl4, CHCl3, CH2Cl2 and CH3Cl.

    摘要: A system for delivery of low-pressure dopant gas to a high-voltage ion source in the doping of semiconductor substrates, in which undesired ionization of the gas is suppressed prior to entry into the high-voltage ion source, by modulating electron energy upstream of the high-voltage ion source so that electron acceleration effects are reduced to below a level supporting an electronic ionization cascade. The gas delivery system in a specific application includes a gas flow passage, a voltage generator electrically coupled with at least a portion of the gas flow passage to impose an electric field thereon, and an obstructive structure that is deployed to modulate acceleration length of electrons of the low-pressure gas in relation to ionization potential of the gas, to suppress ionization in the gas flow passage.
