Abstract

Multi-purpose electrostatic lens for an ion implanter. The electrostatic lens allows an ion implanter to scan, accelerate, decelerate, expand, compress, focus and parallelize an ion beam. This capability enables the ion implanter to function as either a high precision medium-current ion implanter or as a high-current ion implanter.
