Abstract

A method of detecting 3-D beam profile of an ion implanter is disclosed to detect an ion beam produced by the ion implanter. A detector measures multiple scanning areas of the beam and a two-dimensional beam profile of each scanning area relating to the ion beam. The scanning areas are stacked to produce a three-dimensional scanning space through which the two-dimensional beam profiles are reconstructed to produce a three-dimensional beam profile. The three-dimensional beam profile is analyzed to obtain beam parameters relating to the ion beam.
