Method to measure ion beam angle

A device and method for measuring ion beam angle with respect to a substrate is disclosed. The method includes forming a plurality of shadowing structures extending substantially perpendicular from an upper surface of the substrate, directing an ion beam toward the substrate, the plurality of shadowing structures interrupting an incident angle of the ion beam to define implanted and non-implanted portions of the substrate. The method further includes measuring the dose of implanted species within the substrate, determining an implanted surface area as a function of measuring the dose of implant, determining non-implanted surface area based on the implanted surface area, and obtaining the ion beam angle as a function of the non-implanted surface area.
