Abstract

The ion source apparatus of the present invention includes at least one pair of antenna-opposed magnets sandwiching an antenna element and moveable to magnetic element and the antenna element both in horizontal and vertical directions in a plasma chamber, and a control means performing a positional adjustment over the antenna-opposed magnets to the antenna element in the plasma chamber. An electrons-generated region of high-concentration is formed around the antenna element through electric fields based on outputs of the antenna element and magnetic fields of the antenna-opposed magnets crossing the antenna element.
