    摘要: The embodiments described provide mechanisms for doping oxide in the STIs with carbon to make etch rate in the narrow and wide structures equal and also to make corners of wide STIs strong. Such carbon doping can be performed by ion beam (ion implant) or by plasma doping. The hard mask layer can be used to protect the silicon underneath from doping. By using the doping mechanism, the even surface topography of silicon and STI enables patterning of gate structures and ILD0 gapfill for advanced processing technology.

    摘要: A method for plasma ion implantation of a substrate includes providing a plasma ion implantation system having a process chamber, a source for producing a plasma in the process chamber, a platen for holding a substrate in the process chamber, an anode spaced from the platen, and a pulse source for generating implant pulses for accelerating ions from the plasma into the substrate. In one aspect, a parameter of an implant process is varied to at least partially compensate for undesired effects of interaction between ions being implanted and the substrate. For example, dose rate, ion energy, or both may be varied during the implant process. In another aspect, a pretreatment step includes accelerating ions from the plasma to the anode to cause emission of secondary electrons from the anode, and accelerating the secondary electrons from the anode to a substrate for pretreatment of the substrate.

    摘要: A time-of-flight ion sensor for monitoring ion species in a plasma includes a housing. A drift tube is positioned in the housing. An extractor electrode is positioned in the housing at a first end of the drift tube so as to attract ions from the plasma. A plurality of electrodes is positioned at a first end of the drift tube proximate to the extractor electrode. The plurality of electrodes is biased so as to selectively attract ions to enter the drift tube and to drift towards a second end of the drift tube. An ion detector is positioned proximate to the second end of the drift tube. The ion detector detects arrival times associated with the at least the portion of the attracted ions.
