20090266997ION SOURCE WITH ADJUSTABLE APERTURE - An ion implanter system including an ion source for use in creating a stream or beam of ions. The ion source has an ion source chamber housing that at least partially bounds an ionization region for creating a high density concentration of ions within the chamber housing. An ion extraction aperture of desired characteristics covers an ionization region of the chamber. In one embodiment, a movable ion extraction aperture plate is moved with respect to the housing for modifying an ion beam profile. One embodiment includes an aperture plate having at least elongated apertures and is moved between at least first and second positions that define different ion beam profiles. A drive or actuator coupled to the aperture plate moves the aperture plate between the first and second positions. An alternate embodiment has two moving plate portions that bound an adjustable aperture.10-29-2009
20100065761ADJUSTABLE DEFLECTION OPTICS FOR ION IMPLANTATION - A deflection component suitable for use in an ion implantation system comprises multiple electrodes that can be selectively biased to cause an ion beam passing therethrough to bend, deflect, focus, converge, diverge, accelerate, decelerate, and/or decontaminate.

Methods are disclosed for providing a scanned ion beam to a workpiece, comprising scanning the ion beam to produce a scanned ion beam, adjusting a focal property of an ion beam in relation to zero field effects of the scanner upon the ion beam, and directing the ion beam toward the workpiece.06-24-2010
20110272567Throughput Enhancement for Scanned Beam Ion Implanters - Some aspects of the present disclosure increase throughput beyond what has previously been achievable by changing the scan rate of a scanned ion beam before the entire cross-sectional area of the ion beam extends beyond an edge of a workpiece. In this manner, the techniques disclosed herein help provide greater throughput than what has previously been achievable. In addition, some embodiments can utilize a rectangular (or other non-circularly shaped) scan pattern that allows real-time beam flux measurements to be taken off-wafer during actual implantation. In these embodiments, the workpiece implantation routine can be changed in real-time to account for real-time changes in beam flux. In this manner, the techniques disclosed herein help provide improved throughput and more accurate dosing profiles for workpieces than previously achievable.11-10-2011
