What it is

The Applied Materials / Varian VIISta HCP+ is a high current ion implanter. The Applied Materials / Varian VIISta HCP+ is configured for 300 mm wafer processing. The Applied Materials / Varian VIISta HCP+ is configured for 12 inch wafer processing.[3][1][2][4]

How it works

General reference — not yet source-verified

Ion implanters introduce dopant atoms into semiconductor wafers by generating ions, forming a beam, selecting the desired species, and directing the beam onto the wafer surface. High current ion implanters are used when a process calls for substantial dopant dose delivery across patterned wafer regions.

Where it fits in the process flow

General reference — not yet source-verified

Ion implantation is a front-end semiconductor process used after pattern definition to modify the electrical properties of exposed regions of a wafer. Ion implantation is followed by annealing to activate dopants and repair lattice damage caused by the implant.

Applications

The Applied Materials / Varian VIISta HCP+ is used for high current ion implantation on 300 mm wafers.[2][1]
