6. The ion implanter with cleaning function as claimed in claim 5, characterized in that: The main body of the displacement component (300) is a clamping claw or a vacuum suction cup.
7. The ion implanter with cleaning function as claimed in claim 5, characterized in that: When performing different times of clamping and positioning, the length of the supporting telescopic body (160) is flexibly adjusted to thereby improve the utilization rate of the buffer pad (141).
8. The ion implanter with cleaning function as claimed in claim 5, characterized in that: The cleaning assembly can clean and maintain the carrying tray, the fixed clamping sheet and the clamping soft block.
9. The ion implanter with cleaning function as claimed in claim 5, characterized in that: Also included is an air guide block (480); The air guide block (480) is a columnar block, arranged longitudinally, with its top fixed to the bottom of the supporting horizontal plate (430) and surrounded by an annular frame (431); The bottom surface of the air guide block (480) is provided with an annular air suction groove (481), and the annular air suction groove (481) is connected to the air pump device (370); A ring-shaped heating body (482) is provided near the center of the bottom surface of the air guide block (480), and the ring-shaped heating body (482) is an electric heating wire, which plays a role of melting through the cleaning belt (452) after heating; The bottom surface of the air guide block (480) is provided with an air outlet groove (483) and an air intake groove (484), both of which are connected to the air pump device (370) and are surrounded by the ring-shaped heating body (482).
10. A method for cleaning an ion implanter, characterized in that: The ion implanter with cleaning function as claimed in claim 1 comprises the following steps: after the wafer on the carrier (120) is removed, the supporting stand (420) is controlled to move closer to the carrier (120), and the supporting horizontal plate (430) is moved to the top of the carrier (120); Thereafter, the air pump device (370) is controlled to operate, the amount of gas in the gas storage space is increased, thereby causing the cleaning belt (452) to deform and adhere closely to the carrier (120) and the components thereon, and then the cleaning belt (452) is controlled to contract to perform adhesive removal cleaning; after multiple adhesive removal actions, the components are reset.
