Abstract

See full text

An ion implantation system employs a mass analyzer for both mass analysis and angle correction. An ion source generates an ion beam along a beam path. A mass analyzer is located downstream of the ion source that performs mass analysis and angle correction on the ion beam. A resolving aperture within an aperture assembly is located downstream of the mass analyzer component and along the beam path. The resolving aperture has a size and shape according to a selected mass resolution and a beam envelope of the ion beam. An angle measurement system is located downstream of the resolving aperture and obtains an angle of incidence value of the ion beam. A control system derives a magnetic field adjustment for the mass analyzer according to the angle of incidence value of the ion beam from the angle measurement system.
