Abstract :
An enhanced xenon plasma electron flood gun (PEF-Xe) used in a GSD-200E2 ion implanter is characterized by means of various wafer test structures. High dose/beam current implants are performed under different PEF settings to investigate the charge neutralization capability of the tool. QBD, FLASH, SPIDER and CHARMTM -2 test structures are used to explore a range of operating conditions for high beam current arsenic implants
