    摘要: A technique for providing a segmented electrostatic lens in an ion implanter is disclosed. In one particular exemplary embodiment, the technique may be realized as an electrostatic lens for use in an ion implanter. The lens may comprise an entrance electrode biased at a first voltage potential, wherein an ion beam enters the electrostatic lens through the entrance electrode. The lens may also comprise an exit electrode biased at a second voltage potential, wherein the ion beam exits the electrostatic lens through the exit electrode. The lens may further comprise a suppression electrode located between the entrance electrode and the exit electrode, the suppression electrode comprising a plurality of segments that are independently biased to manipulate an energy and a shape of the ion beam.

    摘要: A plasma processing apparatus includes a process chamber, a platen for supporting a workpiece, a source configured to generate a plasma in the process chamber, and an insulating modifier. The insulating modifier has a gap, and a gap plane, where the gap plane is defined by portions of the insulating modifier closest to the sheath and proximate the gap. A gap angle is defined as the angle between the gap plane and a plane defined by the front surface of the workpiece. Additionally, a method of having ions strike a workpiece is disclosed, where the range of incident angles of the ions striking the workpiece includes a center angle and an angular distribution, and where the use of the insulating modifier creates a center angle that is not perpendicular to the workpiece.

    摘要: An ion implantation apparatus including a first plasma chamber, a second plasma chamber and an extraction electrode disposed therebetween. The first and second plasma chambers configured to house respective plasmas in response to the introduction of a different feed gases therein. The extraction electrode is electrically isolated from the plasma chamber. An extraction voltage is applied to the first plasma chamber above a bias potential used to generate the plasma therein. The extraction voltage drives the plasma potential to accelerate the ions in the first plasma to a desired implant energy. The accelerated ions pass through an aperture in the extraction electrode and are directed toward a substrate housed within the second plasma chamber for implantation.

    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.
