APPLICATIONS
Ion implantation is a process whereby dopant ions are accelerated in intense electrical fields to penetrate a material’s surface, thereby changing its properties.
Ion implantation is an essential technique in the semiconductor industry as it is used to modify a semiconductor’s conductivity during the fabrication of integrated circuits. It is also heavily used for fabricating silicon-on-insulator devices.
Emerging applications for ion implantation, such as quantum technology and nanotechnology, require much more extreme tolerances than traditional applications. Ionoptika’s Q-One is the world’s first instrument for the deterministic implantation of single ions with nanometre accuracy.
