In the fabrication process of the 3D memory device, a plasma implantation technique is generally used. For example, in the selective epitaxial growth of the substrate surface, the epitaxial layer is doped using a plasma implantation technique.
With the increase of the storage density of the 3D memory device, the number of stacked layers of the stacked structure is increased, and the aspect ratio of the trench penetrating through the stacked structure is increased, which may cause the trench to be inclined. The epitaxial layer at the bottom of the trench is doped by using the existing ion implantation equipment, the emitted plasma beam is implanted into the inclined trench, and part of the plasma beam is blocked by the inclined trench side wall and cannot be implanted into the epitaxial layer at the bottom of the trench. Further, since the plasma cannot be completely implanted into the epitaxial layer, the doping cannot achieve an expected effect, and thus the electrical characteristics of the epitaxial layer are affected, which in turn causes a decrease in the threshold voltage uniformity of the semiconductor device.
Accordingly, further improvements in ion implantation equipment are desired to improve the electrical characteristics of memory devices.

However, as will be understood by those skilled in the art, the present invention may be practiced without these specific details.
Currently, an ion implantation process is generally used to selectively epitaxially grow a doped epitaxial layer in a substrate to improve the performance of a semiconductor device.
