Methods and apparatus are provided for controlling dose uniformity in an ion implantation system. According to one embodiment of the invention, an initial scan waveform is adjusted to obtain a desired uniformity for use in a first implant process, and the adjusted scan waveform is stored. The stored scan waveform is recalled and used in a second implant process. According to a another embodiment of the invention, desired beam parameters are identified and, based on the desired beam parameters, a stored scan waveform is recalled for use in a uniformity adjustment process, and the uniformity adjustment process is performed. According to a further embodiment of the invention, an apparatus is provided that includes a beam profiler for measuring a current distribution of a scanned ion beam. The apparatus also includes a data acquisition and analysis unit for adjusting an initial scan waveform based on a desired current distribution and the measured current distribution for use in a first implant process, storing the adjusted scan waveform, recalling the stored scan waveform, and using the recalled scan waveform in a second implant process.
