Methods and apparatus for implanting a dopant material are provided herein. In some embodiments, a method of processing a substrate disposed within a process chamber may include (a) implanting a dopant material into a surface of the substrate to form a doped layer in the substrate and an elemental dopant layer atop the doped layer; (b) removing at least some of the elemental dopant layer from atop the surface of the substrate; and (c) implanting the dopant material into the doped layer of the substrate; wherein (a)-(c) are performed without removing the substrate from the process chamber; and wherein (a)-(c) are repeated until at least one of a desired dopant implantation depth or a desired dopant implantation density is achieved.
