Sumitomo
SEN NV GSD HE Ion
What it is
How it works
General reference — not yet source-verifiedAn ion implanter accelerates dopant ions and directs the ion beam into a wafer surface to modify the electrical properties of near-surface regions. The machine class is used for controlled introduction of impurities after precise dose and energy selection.
Where it fits in the process flow
General reference — not yet source-verifiedThe Sumitomo SEN NV GSD HE Ion belongs in the wafer doping portion of semiconductor process flow. The machine is used after patterning steps that require localized electrical modification of silicon or other semiconductor material.
Ion implantation is commonly followed by thermal treatment to activate dopants and repair implantation damage. The process sits upstream of later device completion steps that depend on the implanted regions.
Applications
General reference — not yet source-verifiedIon implantation is used for source and drain formation, threshold adjustment, well formation, and other doping steps in integrated circuit fabrication.
The process is also used in mature-node semiconductor production where repeatable dopant placement and dose control are required.
