    Abstract: A system and method are disclosed for controlling an ion beam. A deceleration lens is disclosed for use in an ion implanter. The lens may include a suppression electrode, first and second focus electrodes, and first and second shields. The shields may be positioned between upper and lower portions of the suppression electrode. The first and second shields are positioned between the first focus electrode and an end station of the ion implanter. Thus positioned, the first and second shields protect support surfaces of said first and second focus electrodes from deposition of back-streaming particles generated from said ion beam. In some embodiments, the first and second focus electrodes may be adjustable to enable the electrode surfaces to be adjusted with respect to a direction of the ion beam. By adjusting the angle of the focus electrodes, parallelism of the ion beam can be controlled. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

    Abstract: A silicon-based showerhead electrode is provided where backside inserts are positioned in backside recesses formed along the backside of the electrode. The backside inserts comprise a threaded outside diameter, a threaded inside diameter, and a tool engaging portion formed in the threaded inside diameter. The tool engaging portion is formed such that the backside insert further comprises one or more lateral shielding portions between the tool engaging portion and the threaded outside diameter to prevent a tool engaged with the tool engaging portion of the backside insert from extending beyond the threaded outside diameter of the insert. Further, the tool engaging portion of the backside insert comprises a plurality of torque-receiving slots arranged about the axis of rotation of the backside insert. The torque-receiving slots are arranged to avoid on-axis rotation of the backside insert via opposing pairs of torque receiving slots.

    Abstract: A plasma generating component for a process chamber includes a first pair of linear electrodes. Each electrode of the first pair of linear electrodes extends from a first edge of a plasma generating region of the plasma generating component to a second edge of the plasma generating region of the plasma generating component. Electrodes of the first pair of linear electrodes are substantially parallel. The plasma generating component further includes a second pair of linear electrodes, substantially parallel to the first pair of linear electrodes. The plasma generating component further includes a dielectric support to which the first pair of linear electrodes and the second pair of linear electrodes are secured.

    Abstract: An insulator that has a lattice is disclosed. The insulator may have a shaft with two ends. The lattice may be disposed on the outer surface of the shaft. In some embodiments, one or more sheaths are used to cover portions of the shaft. A lattice may also be disposed on the inner wall and/or outer walls of the sheaths. The lattice serves to increase the tracking length between the two ends of the shaft. This results in longer times before failure. This insulator may be used in an ion implantation system to physically and electrically separate two components.
