Abstract

A technique for measuring the ion implant dosage involves method and apparatus for directing pulses of coherent radiation from a laser to the surface of a semiconductor that has been subjected to ion implant. The intensity of the third harmonic reflected from the semiconductor is determined and correlated to determine the ion dosage within the semiconductor.
