The debt measuring unit includes a detector 260 for neutralizing the electron beam flow and a detector 280 for sensing the implanted ion beam flow. The feedback control unit includes a feedback circuit 270, a microprocessor 275, and an aperture control mechanism (not shown in the figure). The feedback circuit 270 is connected to the microprocessor 275. The microprocessor 275 is connected to the aperture control mechanism, and the aperture control mechanism is connected to the plasma outflow chamber 228. The diameter of the 2M aperture of the plasma overflow chamber exit. The ion implantation work unit includes a work area 250 and a rotating mechanism (not shown in the figure). The rotating mechanism can place a plurality of wafers 240 and move them out of or into the working area 250. The wafer 240 in the working area 250 is located in a direction that can receive the ion beam 215 emitted by the ion beam 210. The plasma overflow chamber 220 is placed perpendicular to the ion beam generator 21. The feedback control unit 270 can be connected to the detectors 26 and 28 and the plasma overflow chamber outlet 228 on the same day. The feedback control unit 270 uses a microprocessor 275 to establish various data, and controls the size of the aperture of the plasma overflow chamber outlet 228. The overflow generation is on. The general plasma overflow unit mainly consists of three parts: the plasma source, the generation of the babies and the electron beam guiding device. In this embodiment, the plasma / Yingdan 7L plasma source is argon, the electron generator is the coil 222, and the electron beam guiding device is the guide tube 226. Its structure mainly includes 11 573442

一腔室220,該腔室220内置一線圈(filament) 222,一氣 體入口 224,以及一電子束引導管226。上述之線圈222為 習用之Bernas型線圈,亦即上述所稱之低能量電子產生 器,用以提供產生電漿所需能量;該腔室220具有一氣體 入口 224,以及一電漿出口 228。該電漿出口 228孔徑大小 係以回饋控制單元之孔徑控制機構控制。該電子束引導 管226位於離子束215之平行方向上,通常具有電極或磁 場,可吸引電子束穿透該植入離子束。 產生電漿時,係由氣體入口 224通入氬氣(Ar),之後 於該線圈222通入電流,該氬氣流過該熾熱的線圈222 時,會激發出大量電子瀰漫於該腔室220中。此時可外加 一偏向正電壓,此偏向正電壓與該線圈222可提供足夠能 量,幫助氬氣大量游離,以產生電漿。腔室220中的電子 會因擴散作用而由該出口 228溢出該腔室220,再經由電 子束引導管226引導穿透離子束215,以中和該離子束中 過多之正電荷。A chamber 220 includes a coil 222, a gas inlet 224, and an electron beam guiding tube 226.

The electron beam guiding tube 226 is located in the parallel direction of the ion beam 215, and usually has an electrode or a magnetic field, which can attract the electron beam to penetrate the implanted ion beam. When plasma is generated, argon (Ar) is passed through the gas inlet 224, and then a current is passed through the coil 222. When the argon gas flows through the hot coil 222, a large number of electrons are excited to diffuse in the chamber 220. . At this time, a bias voltage can be applied. This bias voltage and the coil 222 can provide sufficient energy to help the argon gas to dissipate in large amounts to generate plasma. The electrons in the chamber 220 will overflow the chamber 220 through the outlet 228 due to diffusion, and then be guided through the ion beam 215 through the electron beam guide tube 226 to neutralize the excessive positive charge in the ion beam.

The present invention utilizes the Xinlai control method to establish the fluctuation of the original electron beam interstitial flow rate in a feeding house, making the early opening of the opening hole of the pulp overflow chamber. Size to compensate in this way The fluctuation of the actual flow of the electron beam makes Dianli ^ enable the actual flow of the electron beam to be maintained at two: the ion implantation status of the mother batch can be accurately grasped, thereby improving the yield of wafer ion implantation. As a result, the present invention, regardless of its purpose, means, and effect, is different from the conventional technology in its characteristics. It is a major breakthrough in the "control method of plasma overflow chamber hole 1", which is expected to grant a quasi-patent at an early date. What is left to think is that many of the above-mentioned embodiments are merely for the sake of convenience. The scope of the rights claimed in the present invention is self-explanatory. The scope of the patent claims shall prevail, and not only the above-mentioned embodiments. # V. Brief Description of Drawings Figure 1 is an ion implanter used in the conventional art.
