What it is

The Applied Materials xR 200 S is an ion implanter used in semiconductor manufacturing. The model is configured for 200 mm (8 inch) wafers and operates as a fully automated system.[1][2]

How it works

The xR 200 S generates an ion beam from a source that uses process gases. The beam is shaped and accelerated before being directed to the wafer. The tool includes a flight tube and a cryogenic pump to maintain vacuum conditions. A mass revolving system (MRS) is used for selecting the desired ion species.[1][2]

Where it fits in the process flow

General reference — not yet source-verified

Ion implantation is a critical step in semiconductor device fabrication, typically performed after the formation of gate structures and before the activation anneal. The xR 200 S implants dopant ions into defined regions of the wafer to alter electrical conductivity, enabling the creation of source/drain junctions, well regions, and threshold-voltage adjustments.
