Abstract
A novel method for ion implanting isotopically enriched selenium containing source material is provided. The source material is selected and enriched in a specific mass isotope of selenium, whereby the enrichment is above natural abundance levels. The inventive method allows reduced gas consumption and reduced waste. The source material is preferably stored and delivered from a sub-atmospheric storage and delivery device to enhance safety and reliability during the selenium ion implantation process.
