    Abstract: A multi-element electrostatic chicane energy filter (300) , with the addition of electrostatic quadrupole and hexapole excitations to the dipole elements (302, 304, 306, 308). A charged particle energy filter according to the present invention with a combination of dipole, quadrupole, and hexapole elements capable of producing a line focus at an aperture (310) reduces space-charge effects and aperture damage. A preferred embodiment allows the filter to act as a conjugate blanking system. The energy filter is capable of narrowing the energy spread to result in a smaller beam.

    Abstract: The invention relates to a blocking member to be placed in the diffraction plane of a TEM. It resembles the knife edge used for single sideband imaging, but blocks only electrons deflected over a small angle. As a result the Contrast Transfer Function of the TEM according to this invention will equal that of a single sideband microscope at low frequencies and that of a normal microscope for high frequencies. Preferable the highest frequency blocked by the blocking member is such that a microscope without the blocking member would show a CTF of 0.5.

    Abstract: An ion source includes arc chamber housing defining an arc chamber. The arc chamber housing has an extraction plate in a fixed position, and the extraction plate defines a plurality of extraction apertures. The ion source also includes a shutter assembly positioned outside of the arc chamber proximate the extraction plate. The shutter assembly is configured to block at least a portion of one of the plurality of extraction apertures during one time interval. The ion source combined with relative movement of a workpiece to be treated with an ion beam extracted from the ion source enables a two dimensional ion implantation pattern to be formed on the workpiece using only one ion source.

    Abstract: An analyzer module of an ion implanter includes beam deflection apparatus adjacent to a resolving opening from which a terminal ion beam portion of an ion beam emanates. In response to a beam deflection voltage of a first value of substantially zero volts in a first operating condition, the beam deflection apparatus directs a source ion beam portion of the ion beam toward the resolving opening to generate the terminal ion beam portion. When the beam deflection voltage has a high second value in a second operating condition, the beam deflection apparatus directs the species of the source ion beam portion away from the resolving opening such that the terminal ion beam portion is substantially extinguished. Beam control circuitry is operative during the second operating condition to transition the ion implanter to the first operating condition by rapidly switching the beam deflection voltage from the second value to the first value. An implantation method employs the features of the implanter to recover from glitches during implantation and thereby improve the yield of implanted wafers.
