[15p-P11-3] Development of bucket type RF ion sources for large area ion beam milling
Keywords:Ion source, RF, Ion beam milling
In the ion beam milling apparatus, an ion beam with a max diameter of 580 mm is extracted from a bucket type ion source and applied to semiconductor wiring / electrode process, microfabrication of magnetic heads, printer heads and MEMS. In this report, we will show a bucket type RF ion source developed for hundreds hours continuous operation. Ar + beam of 1 keV, 300 mm diameter, 1 mA / cm 2 current density was obtained. Active ion species like Oxygen are also possible.
