The purpose of this project is to evaluate the feasibility of cleaning silicon wafers with an energetic (1 to 100 eV) neutral particle beam and to develop a viable neutral beam source. A microwave plasma source on an existing test stand was modified to produce a 2-cm diameter neutral beam for cleaning the wafers. Significant results regarding neutral beam wafer cleaning are reported.
