Abstract: A system and method for controlling an amount of outgassing caused by implanting ions into a photoresist disposed on a workpiece. The amount of outgassing is based on the species being implanted, the type of photoresist, the energy of the implant, and the amount of dose that has already been implanted, among other effects. By controlling the effective beam current, the amount of outgassing may be maintained below a predetermined threshold. By developing and utilizing the relationship between effective beam current, dose completed and rate of outgassing, the effective beam current may be controlled more precisely to implant the workpiece in the most efficient manner while remaining below the predetermined outgassing threshold.

Abstract: A system to control an ion beam in an ion implanter includes a detector to perform a plurality of beam current measurements of the ion beam along a first direction perpendicular to a direction of propagation of the ion beam. The system also includes an analysis component to determine a beam current profile based upon the plurality of beam current measurements, the beam current profile comprising a variation of beam current along the first direction; and an adjustment component to adjust a height of the ion beam along the first direction when the beam current profile indicates the beam height is below a threshold.

Abstract: A system to control an ion beam in an ion implanter includes a detector system to detect a plurality of beam current measurements of the ion beam at a first frequency and an analysis component to determine a variation of the ion beam based upon the plurality of beam current measurements, the variation corresponding to a beam current variation of the ion beam at a second frequency different from the first frequency. The system also includes an adjustment component to adjust the ion beam in response to an output of the analysis component to reduce the variation, wherein the analysis component and the adjustment component are configured to dynamically reduce the variation of the ion beam below a threshold value while the ion beam is generated in the ion implanter.
