What it is
The Axcelis NV GSD HE is a MeV ion implanter used for ion implantation in semiconductor manufacturing.[1]
How it works
General reference — not yet source-verifiedIon implantation uses an ion source, beam transport, energy selection, and scan or raster motion to deliver a controlled dose of ions into a substrate.
MeV-class implantation uses very high beam energy to drive ions deeper into the wafer than lower-energy implantation steps.
Where it fits in the process flow
General reference — not yet source-verifiedThe Axcelis NV GSD HE fits in the doping sequence of semiconductor fabrication, where implantation adjusts electrical properties after patterning or masking steps define the areas to be modified.
Ion implantation is commonly followed by thermal processing that activates dopants and repairs crystal damage created by the beam.
Applications
General reference — not yet source-verifiedIon implantation is used to form doped regions for devices that require controlled carrier concentration and junction depth.
MeV implantation is used for deeper dopant placement in mature-node and specialty semiconductor processes that need buried or extended doped regions.
