Implant dose (educational)

Estimate the total number of implanted ions from an areal dose and an exposed area.

Inputs

Educational only

This is the simple definition dose = ions per unit area. It gives no implant energy, depth, profile, or any operational implantation settings.
ions/cm²

Result

Enter values and calculate to see the result.

Interpretation

Enter an areal dose (ions/cm²) and the exposed area.

Formula

Implant dose
total ions = dose × area

Dose is ions per unit area.

Variables

Assumptions & validity

Worked example

dose = 1×10¹⁴ ions/cm², area = 1 mm² (= 0.01 cm²).

total = 1×10¹⁴ × 0.01 = 1×10¹² ions
