System and method for reducing particles and contamination by matching beam complementary aperture shapes to beam shapes

摘要

An ion implantation system comprising an ion source configured to generate an ion beam along a beam path, a mass analyzer is located downstream of the ion source wherein the mass analyzer is configured to perform mass analysis of the ion beam and a beam complementary aperture located downstream of the mass analyzer and along the beam path, the beam complementary aperture having a size and shape corresponding to a cross-sectional beam envelope of the ion beam.
