Abstract :
A high-current negative-ion implanter, equipped with a plasma-sputter-type ion source, a strong beam transport and an irradiation chamber, has been developed and applied to modification for optical properties of insulators. Negative Cu ions of both a high flux and a low emittance demonstrate merits of efficient material modification for silica glasses. The implanter is capable for in-beam fabrication and morphology control of metal nanocrystals
