    摘要: An implantation system includes an ion extraction plate having a set of apertures configured to extract ions from an ion source to form a plurality of beamlets. A magnetic analyzer is configured to provide a magnetic field to deflect ions in the beamlets in a first direction that is generally perpendicular to a principle axis of the beamlets. A mass analysis plate includes a set of apertures wherein first ion species having a first mass/charge ratio are transmitted through the mass analysis plate and second ion species having a second mass/charge ratio are blocked by the mass analysis plate. A workpiece holder is configured to move with respect to the mass analysis plate in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction, wherein a pattern of ions transmitted through the mass analysis plate forms a continuous ion beam current along the first direction at the substrate.

    摘要: A system and method are disclosed for controlling an ion beam. A deceleration lens is disclosed for use in an ion implanter. The lens may include a suppression electrode, first and second focus electrodes, and first and second shields. The shields may be positioned between upper and lower portions of the suppression electrode. The first and second shields are positioned between the first focus electrode and an end station of the ion implanter. Thus positioned, the first and second shields protect support surfaces of said first and second focus electrodes from deposition of back-streaming particles generated from said ion beam. In some embodiments, the first and second focus electrodes may be adjustable to enable the electrode surfaces to be adjusted with respect to a direction of the ion beam. By adjusting the angle of the focus electrodes, parallelism of the ion beam can be controlled. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

    摘要: An ion implantation system including a plasma source, a mask-slit, and a plasma chamber. The plasma source is configured to generate a plasma within the plasma chamber in response to the introduction of a gas therein. The mask-slit is electrically isolated from the plasma chamber. A positive voltage bias is applied to the plasma chamber above a bias potential used to generate the plasma. The positive voltage bias drives the plasma potential to accelerate the ions to a desired implant energy. The accelerated ions pass through an aperture in the mask-slit and are directed toward a substrate for implantation. The mask-slit is electrically isolated from the plasma chamber and is maintained at ground potential with respect to the plasma.
