Mark 1 is made in form of an image, which is optically visualised in diffraction-reflection light, made on the polished surface 3 of the valuable object 2.

The invention relates to the field of doping of solids by receiving the ion beam from photobrush atoms and can be used for structural-phase modification of solids, for example to improve their physico-mechanical, corrosion, and other practically important properties.

Known wide application of ion beams for doping of solids of various chemically active atoms to form in irradiated materials specified size and density of precipitates of secondary phases that determine their physical, chemical and mechanical properties [1].

A distinctive feature of the ion doping is the possibility of doping of any object (without limitation) atoms, including not having a solubility in the material of the object. This fact has contributed to a broad application of the principles of ion modification of the structure in order to control the chemical, physical and mechanical properties of various materials. So, for example, with the aim of strengthening materials using ion-induced formation of both the accumulation of radiation defects and fine precipitates of secondary phases. In the latter case it is possible to get the greatest effect on the magnitude of the hardening and thermal stability, which determines its successful applications to the tion in the solution of many practical problems. Usually used for this purpose irradiation of the specified object ions such chemical element that have the ability to form with the atoms of the irradiated object of a chemical compound.

The greatest effect in changing the physical-mechanical properties of solids can occur when they are exposed to two or three ions of different chemical elements, which at certain temperatures is received or after the radiation firing, interacting with each other, form new complex chemical composition (multi-component) phase precipitates in the matrix of the irradiated object [2]. At the same time to implement the formation of multicomponent phase use the sequential irradiation of the object corresponding ions. For example, for formation of a phase type BN (boron nitride) object sequentially irradiated with ions of boron and nitrogen [3, 4]. Of course, for forming, for example, boron carbonitride, you need sequential irradiation by ions of carbon, nitrogen and boron. Established to ensure that conditions of formation of phases (including multi-component) of the alloying atoms necessary to their concentration exceeded the solubility limit in the lattice of irradiated material. In this regard, the fluence of the particles should be at least 1017cm-2that is usually implemented in practice. In this regard and requires adequate time for the irradiation of each of the components necessary ions. Ie, for example, for synthesizing three-phase requires three times the irradiation object ions of each component in strictly defined energies for ions of each components.

This is essential precise matching of energies for each of the bombarding ions to form a similar spatial profiles of the ion doping in the irradiated sample volume. This circumstance requires the possibility for a controlled change of the energy of accelerated ions in the implanter. Otherwise, as implemented in [5], when ions are used with non-correlated energies, the spatial profiles of doping, for example with double exposure, very different. In this case there are physical and technical problems with both the selection of doses, and with the uncertainty of the role of the field at the end of the mileage, alloy only one type of ions on the characteristics of the final product.

In [6] described a method of ion implantation, in which form the plasma of multiply charged ions in a single source, and then extracted from him the ion beam, which then allocate the necessary ions with strictly the same ratio of mass to charge using high-resolution magnetic separator, then sending them to the irradiated object. However, in most the e scientific and practical cases of synthesis in irradiated object multiple phases require simultaneous multielement implantation in various isotopes or ions with different values relationships mass to their charge. This circumstance often occurs in practice, formation of multi-element beam of multicharged ions, when it is impossible to select from ions with strictly the same ratio of their mass to their charge. The use of the method described above in [6] does not allow to implement the ability to form multi-element beam of ions with different (at least at 10%) values of the relations of their mass to their charge. For example, when synthesizing an extremely solid phase boron carbonitride (BNC) cannot implement the terms of the receipt of the mixture of multiply charged ions11InN+,12WithN+and14NN+(where N+ is the charge value from 2 to 7) ions with the same values of the relations of their mass to their charge. Moreover, these difficulties arise when multiple ion implantation derived from isotopic elements, such as11Inn+,16About3,5,6+,19Fn+,57Fen+and so, when it is impossible to obtain the whole or of the same magnitude relations of their mass to their charge.

The main disadvantages of methods used ion doping:

- the need for a great time at successive irradiation of the object corresponding ions to achieve their concentrations in nominal (not leading to excessive radiation heating is bluemage object) flows ions

the inability of the extracted multi-element plasma to allocate and dispatch on the irradiated object ions with different (at least up to 10%) values of the relations of their mass to their charge.

The invention solves the problem of increasing the efficiency of formation of the multi-element beam and create the conditions for the simultaneous irradiation of the object-element beam from photobrush atoms with different (at least not more than 10%) values of the relations of their mass to their charge when necessary condition of the formation of similar energy profiles for ion doping depth of the irradiated sample.

The technical result of the invention is achieved by the method of multi-element ion implantation, in which the irradiation object ionic components photobrush atoms, in which the irradiation in the same source form multi-element plasma of multiply charged ions, extracted from her multi-element beam with the electric field generated as a constant accelerating voltage, and send it in a magnetic separator with a relative resolution of not more than 10%, which forms a multi-element beam containing ionic components photobrush atoms with different relative to each other by the values of the ratio of the mass of the ions to their dawn is no more than 10% and scan the formed multi-element beam on the surface the irradiated object.

The technical result of the invention is also achieved by a method of multi-element ion implantation, in which the irradiation object ionic components photobrush atoms, in which the irradiation in the same source form multi-element plasma of multiply charged ions are then extracted from it multielement beam of these ions through periodically and sequentially changing the amplitude of the accelerating voltage, the change of the amplitude which is inversely proportional to the ratio of the mass of the ions to their charge for a given photobrush atoms, after which the beam is directed in a magnetic separator, which emit ions with equal relationship of momentum to the charge and transported them to the irradiated object.

Summary of the invention according to the first method consists in the fact that the volume of the chamber one source connected to at least two stand-alone dispensers photobrush atoms form of these multi-element plasma high RES (up to "naked" nuclei) ions. Using the electric field generated as a constant accelerating voltage, extracted from plasma multielement beam of multicharged ions and direct it to the magnetic massacrator. Magnetic separator with a relative resolution of not more than 10% allocates Jonny the components photobrush atoms with differing by no more than 10% relative to each other values the values of the ion mass to their charge. Because magnetic separator with low-resolution shapes the beams of each of the selected ions are spatially shifted relative to each other in the focal plane of a magnetic separator to a value determined by the value of its resolution, it is necessary to use the system spatial scan formed multielement beam bombarded on the surface of the object. The scanning beam is a necessary condition to ensure the formation on the irradiated surface of the sample uniform flow of the multi-element ions, and therefore, uniform and simultaneous entry in the irradiated object required alloying elements.

Summary of the invention according to the second method consists in the fact that the volume of the source chamber connected to at least two stand-alone dispensers photobrush atoms form of these multi-element plasma HFSE (down to the bare nucleus) ions. Using a periodically varying amplitude of the electric field generated by the modulator amplitude rectangular pulse of accelerating voltage, sequentially extracted with multielement beam of multicharged ions with the corresponding energies. The amplitude of the accelerating voltage for each type of ions from the multi-element beam selects the I of the conditions of formation for each of the ions of equal size relationship of momentum to the charge to ensure the conditions of their passing through a magnetic separator to the object. The duration of the periodic activities of the magnitude of the accelerating voltage for each of the ions (duty cycle) is selected as the specified relative concentration of implanted ions in the irradiated object. Ions are periodically and sequentially accelerated to a selected energies are directed through a magnetic separator to the irradiated object.

Figure 1 shows a schematic diagram of an installation for forming a multi-element ion beam. The installation consists of an ion source 1, containers for working substances 2, 3, 4, line transport of multicomponent ion beam 5, the magnetic separator 6, the scanning device 7, the irradiated object 8, the accelerating voltage rectifier 9, the modulator accelerating voltage 10.

The working substance in the required proportions of the containers 2, 3 and 4 are served in the chamber of the source of multiply charged ions 1. In the chamber formed multi-element plasma of multiply charged ions. The beam of multicharged ions extracted from the ion source with energy, which is determined by the accelerating voltage rectifier 9. In accordance with the first method, after the passage of the transportation line 5 and the magnetic separator 6 of the multi-element beam ions are allocated with the values of the relations of their mass to their charge, differ no more than 10%. While the focus of each of the ions spaces the NGOs shifted in the focal plane of the separator, perpendicular to the beam. In this connection it is necessary to provide conditions for scanning the selected magnetic separator multielement beam using the scanning device 7 along the surface of the irradiated object 8.

In the second method, when using the modulator values of accelerating voltage 10, each ion acquires the appropriate accelerating voltage of energy that result in the same value of the ratio of the pulse ion charge. While the focus of each passed through a magnetic separator beam spatially combined in the focal plane of the separator. Therefore, for simultaneous "occurrence" ion beam in the irradiated object eliminates the need to use their scan.

Ions with different ratio of their mass to their charge (Z) for example,11In4+(AIn/ZIn=2,75),12With4+(AWith/ZWith=3),14N5+(AN/ZN=2,8) can be simultaneously directed to the object at a constant accelerating voltage (U0and the use of a magnetic separator with a relative resolution below 10%. In terms of scanning of multi-element beam on the irradiated surface of the object provided the conditions for the formation therein similar spatial profiles of the ion doping (Figure 2).

the e same ions using the second method can simultaneously be transported to the irradiated object with the following values periodically and sequentially changing the accelerating voltage. Taking, for example, ion12With4+the accelerating voltage UWith=20 kV, then for11In4+UB=UWithxAWith/ZWithxZB/AB=21,8 kV, and14N5+UN=UWithxAWith/ZWithxZN/AN=21,4 kW, which ensures equality for these ions the values of momentum to their charge and their subsequent passage through a magnetic separator. When synthesis in irradiated object, for example, phase type CNB, with equal flows of ions of C, N and duration of periodic and sequential steps during the whole time of exposure for each of the accelerating voltages are the same. Figure 3 shows for the case of multi-element radiation calculated profiles of doping.
