    Abstract

    Plasma immersion ion implantation (PIII) is a burgeoning surface modification technique and not restricted by the line-of-sight limitation plaguing conventional beam-line ion implantation. It is therefore an excellent technique to treat interior surfaces as well as components of a complex shape. To enhance the implant uniformity, we are utilizing a high-frequency, low-voltage process. The high dose rate and diffusion depth can be accomplished at a high pulsing frequency whereas the thinner sheath is more favorable to conformal implantation. In this paper, we will describe our hardware and experimental results. This high-frequency, low-voltage process increases the hardness of SS304 by nearly 65% and the wear track width is half of that of the unimplanted sample.
