Implementation of the Wassenaar Arrangement List of Dual-Use
Items: Revisions to the Commerce Control List and Reporting Under the
Wassenaar Arrangement

AGENCY: Bureau of Export Administration, Commerce.

ACTION: Interim rule with request for comments.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Representatives of thirty-three countries gave final approval
July 12-13, 1996 in Vienna, Austria to establish the Wassenaar
Arrangement on Export Controls for Conventional Arms and Dual-Use Goods
and Technologies. The thirty-three countries agreed to control all
items in the List of Dual-Use Goods and Technologies with the objective
of preventing unauthorized transfers. They further agreed on a target
date of November 1, 1996, for implementation of the Wassenaar Lists.
    The purpose of this interim rule is to make the changes to the
Commerce Control List necessary to implement the Wassenaar List. In
addition, this interim rule imposes new reporting requirements on
persons that export certain items controlled under the Wassenaar
Arrangement to non-member countries in order to fulfill the information
exchange requirements of the Wassenaar Arrangement. The Department of
Commerce, with other concerned agencies, is reviewing the Export
Administration Regulations to determine whether further changes will be
required to implement the information sharing provisions of the
Wassenaar Arrangement and to make the necessary adjustments to existing
country groups.
    This rule also revises part 740 of the EAR by removing License
Exception availability for certain items controlled for missile
technology reasons.
    Although the Export Administration Act (EAA) expired on August 20,
1994, the President invoked the International Emergency Economic Powers
Act and continued in effect, to the extent permitted by law, the
provisions of the EAA and the EAR in Executive Order 12924 of August
19, 1994, as extended by the President's notices of August 15, 1995,
August 14, 1996 and August 15, 1997.

DATES: This rule is effective January 15, 1998. Comments on this rule
must be received on or before February 17, 1998.

ADDRESSES: Written comments should be sent to Patricia Muldonian,
Regulatory Policy Division, Bureau of Export Administration, Department
of Commerce, P.O. Box 273, Washington, DC 20044.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: James Lewis, Director, Office of
Strategic Trade and Foreign Policy Controls, Bureau of Export
Administration, Telephone: (202) 482-0092.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    In July 1996, the United States and thirty-two other countries gave
final approval to the establishment of a new multilateral export
control arrangement, called the Wassenaar Arrangement on Export
Controls for Conventional Arms and Dual-Use Goods and Technologies
(Wassenaar Arrangement). The Wassenaar Arrangement contributes to
regional and international security and stability by promoting
transparency and greater responsibility in transfers of conventional
arms and dual-use goods and technologies, thus preventing destabilizing
accumulations of such items. Participating states have committed to
exchange information on exports of dual-use goods and technologies to
non-participating states for the purposes of enhancing transparency and
assisting in developing common understandings of the risks associated
with the transfers of these items.
    To fulfill U.S. commitments to the Wassenaar Arrangement with
regard to dual-use items, this rule amends the Export Administration
Regulations (EAR) by imposing new reporting requirements for exports of
certain items controlled under the Wassenaar Arrangement. Reports are
not required for reexports. These new requirements appear in newly
added part 743 of the EAR. Information from exporters will be
consolidated by BXA for an aggregate data submission to the
participating states.
    With respect to certain dual-use commodities, software, and
technology, participating states have undertaken commitments to notify
each other preferably within 30 days, but no later than 60 days, of an
approval of a license that has been denied by another participating
state for an essentially identical transaction during the preceding
three years. Certain of these items are eligible for License Exceptions
authorized by part 740 of the EAR. Therefore, in order to meet
Wassenaar Arrangement requirements, exporters on occasion may be
informed that the export of a certain item to a specific end-user under
a License Exception is not authorized or alternatively, may be
requested to provide prior written notification to BXA of an export of
a certain item to a specific end-user under a License Exception.
    Reports are required to be submitted to BXA semiannually for
specified items controlled under the Wassenaar Arrangement exported
under License Exceptions LVS, GBS, CIV, CTP, TSR, and GOV. BXA must
receive such reports no later than August 1 for exports during the
reporting period January 1 through June 30, and no later than February
1 for exports during the reporting period July 1 through December 31.
The Export Control Classification Number and paragraph reference as
identified on the Commerce Control List, number of units in each
shipment, and the country of ultimate destination must be included in
each report for each export during the reporting period. Although the
exporter must be identified on all reports to BXA, names of exporters
will not be released to participating states. Certain additional
information requirements apply to digital computers.
    Exporters should note that the first report must be submitted to
and received by BXA no later than August 1, 1998 for the partial
reporting period beginning January 15, 1998 and ending June 30, 1998.
Thereafter, reports are required semiannually according to the
provisions of new Sec. 743.1(f) of the EAR.
    This rule also amends Sec. 742.12 of the EAR (High Performance
Computers) to clarify the reporting and recordkeeping requirements for
certain computer and software exports.
    This rule also amends part 740 of the EAR by adding appropriate
cross-references to reporting requirements under License Exceptions
LVS, GBS, CIV, TSR, CTP, and GOV. The major changes in the Commerce
Control List (CCL) necessary to implement the Wassenaar Arrangement are
summarized below.
    In addition, based on interagency agreement, particularly
consultations with the Department of State, this rule revises part 740
of the EAR by removing License Exception availability for missile
technology (MT) controlled items, except that items described in ECCNs
6A008, 7A001, 7A002, 7A004, 7A101, 7A102, 7A103, 7A104, 7D001, 7D002,
7D003, 7D101, 7D102, 7E003, or 7E101, may be exported as part of a
manned aircraft, satellite, land vehicle, or marine vehicle or in
quantities

[[Page 2453]]

appropriate for replacement parts under License Exceptions TMP, RPL,
TSU, or AVS. This action is based on a U.S. Government policy to
restrict the proliferation of missile capability and is consistent with
the Missile Technology Control Regime (MTCR) multilateral guidelines.
    Also, in an effort to comply with our international commitments of
the Wassenaar Arrangement, the U.S. has also committed to exercise
extreme vigilance for certain items controlled for national security
reasons (NS), which are considered most critical to military
applications. This rule removes License Exception eligibility for
License Exceptions LVS, CIV, TSR, and GOV for certain commodities,
technologies, and software controlled for national security reasons for
which the U.S. has agreed to license with extreme vigilance.

Category 1--Materials

    Additional controls have been added for body armor (1A005), certain
fluorocarbon electronic cooling fluids (1C006), certain ``ceramic-
ceramic'' materials with oxide or glass matrix (1C007), certain metals
and compounds (1C011), and certain material for nuclear heat sources.
In addition, controls for ``stress'' limits for metal alloys (1C002),
have been modified. Additional clarification of controls are specific
for the transition temperature limits on certain ``fibrous or
filamentary materials'' (1C010)

Category 2--Material Processing

    A significant number of changes have been implemented for machine
tools. Specifically, the machine tool entry has been modified to
separate the controls on turning, milling and grinding machines. In
particular, such machines will no longer be controlled under the
Wassenaar Arrangement on the basis of ``tilting spindles'',
``camming'', or ``run-out''. Also, detailed test procedures, as
specified by the International Standards Organization (ISO), will no
longer be reiterated in the list. This revision will allow the
regulations to remain effective while keeping the procedures under
which the equipment is measured, current with industry practice. In
addition, controls have been removed for ``numerical control'' units
and ``motion control boards'', wire feed type electrical discharge
machines (2B001), manual machines specially designed for bevel gears
(2B003), systems for inspection of hemishells (2B006), and software for
``flexible manufacturing units'' (2D002). Two additional items have
been added under 2B001. They include ``specialty machines'' (i.e. deep
hole drilling machines) and spin-forming/flow-forming machines. Lastly,
controls on spindle assemblies and slide assemblies have been moved
from 2B008 to 2B992 as specially designed components therefore.

Category 3--Electronics

    A number of controls have been removed for components under
Category 3, including microprocessors up to a composite theoretical
performance (CTP) value of 260 Mtops, most storage devices (i.e. memory
circuits), and on custom integrated circuits (3A001). In addition, the
frequency parameter for network analyzers and microwave test receivers
have been relaxed, and controls on emulators (3A002) have been removed
entirely. The most significant change is in the entries under Category
3B dealing with semiconductor manufacturing equipment. Specifically,
these entries have been combined and divided into two ECCNs. In
addition, the limit for control of integrated circuits testers have
been raised from 50 MHZ to 60 MHZ (3B002).

Category 4--Computers

    Under category 4, the CTP value for computers has been raised from
260 Mtops to 2,000 Mtops. The limit on graphic accelerators and
graphics coprocessors has been relaxed to a 3-D vector rate of
3,000,000 (4A003). The technology for ``multi-data-stream processing''
has been revised to the control level defined in 4A003.b. (4E002). The
technology for magnetic hard disk drives (4E002) has been removed.

Category 5--Telecommunications, Part I

    Several sections of Part I, Telecommunication have been removed
creating a significant number of changes to the controls on
telecommunication equipment. The majority of changes are identified in
the following entries.
    All controls on telecommunication transmission equipment or
systems, having digital cross connect equipment and modems (5A001.b.),
have been removed. In addition, controls have been removed on certain
communication channel controllers, certain network access controllers,
certain radio equipment operating at frequencies of 31 GHz or less, and
certain digital signal processing equipment based upon ``user-
accessible programmability'' by raising the control parameters in each
instance (5A001.b.).
    Also, controls have been removed on ``stored program controlled''
switching equipment containing any of the following characteristics,
functions or features (5A001.c.):

--``Integrated Services Digital Network'' (ISDN) functions;
--Multi-level priority and pre-emption for circuit switching;
--Routing or switching of ``datagram'' packets;
--Routing for switching of fast select packets;
--Automatic hand-off of cellular radio calls; and
--Digital cross connect equipment.

    Additionally, the control parameters for the ``data signaling
rate'' for ``communications channel controllers'' and the digital
transfer rate for ``network access controllers'' have been modified to
relax controls on packet switches, circuit switches and routers.
Controls on all general purpose test equipment (e.g. bit error rate
testers and protocol analyzers) have been removed (5B001). Controls on
software for use of digital switching equipment (5D001) have been
removed and controls on development technology for spread spectrum and
frequency hopping techniques (5E001.b.) have been added.

Category 5--``Information Security'', Part II

    Under Part II, ``Information Security'', certain items have been
decontrolled through an expansion of ``Notes'' within the entry of
5A002. These notes state that certain access control equipment (e.g.
equipment to protect personal identification numbers [PIN]), data
authentication equipment (e.g. equipment which calculates a Message
Authentication Code [MAC]) and cryptographic equipment specially
designed and limited for use in machines for banking or money
transactions are not controlled. In addition, all software for virus
protection (5D002) has been removed.

Category 6--Sensors and Lasers

    Under the acoustics section, controls for certain wide-swath
bathymetric survey systems and terrestrial geophones have been removed.
In addition, controls for towed acoustic hydrophone arrays and
processing equipment for hydrophone arrays have been modified. Controls
for bottom or bay cable systems (6A001) have been added. Under optical
sensors, controls for specially designed components of image
intensifier tubes (6A002) have been modified. Controls for monospectral
imaging sensors have been added. Under optics, controls on certain
optical filters and ``fluoride fiber'' cable (6A004) have been removed.
Under lasers, certain carbon dioxide lasers, semiconductor lasers, ruby
lasers, neodymium doped lasers and free electron lasers (6A005) have

[[Page 2454]]

been removed. Under radar, weather balloon tracking radars (6A008) have
been removed. For production equipment, equipment for test, inspection
and production of lasers (6B005) have been removed. In addition,
controls on materials for optical fiber preforms for the manufacture of
high birefringence fibers (6C002), materials for certain low optical
absorption materials, and materials for optical fiber preforms for the
manufacture of fluoride fibers (6C004) have been removed. Controls on
software specially designed for bottom or bay cables have been added
and controls on certain primary radar target data software (6D003) have
been removed. Finally, controls for certain optical fabrication
technology and technology for certain optical fibers (6E003) have been
removed.

Category 7--Navigation and Avionics

    Controls on inertial navigation systems certified for use on
``civil aircraft'' (7A003) have been removed. Also, controls for
direction finder equipment (7A007), computer aided design (CAD)
software (7D003), and technology for electric actuators for primary
flight control and flight control optical sensor arrays (7E004) have
been added.

Category 8--Marine

    Controls for certain underwater vision systems, certain
photographic still cameras and certain light systems (8A002) have been
relaxed. Controls on stirling cycle engine air independent power
systems (8A002) have been clarified.

Category 9--Propulsion

    Under the section dealing with Test, Inspection and Production
Equipment, several items have been removed, including automated
equipment for measuring airfoil wall thickness, tooling/fixtures, and
measuring equipment for hole drilling processing, ceramic core leaching
equipment and ceramic shell burn out or firing equipment (9B001).
Controls on brush seals have been narrowed by adding a control for a
temperature limit (9B003) and expanded by adding tools, dies or
fixtures for solid state joining of intermetallic airfoil-to-disk
combinations for gas turbine engines (9B004). Transducers/strain
gauges/accelerometers/thermocouples for vibration equipment (9B006)
have also been removed. Accordingly, under software, controls for
certain software for vibration test equipment as well as certain
development/production software of test facilities for engines (9D004)
have been removed. Finally, a few modifications have been made under
technology for gas turbine engine components or systems and controls on
helicopter power transfer systems or tilt rotor or tilt wing aircraft
(9E003). Specifically, controls have been narrowed on technology for
multiple domed combustors (9E003.a.2), the technology for gas bearing
for gas turbine engine rotor assemblies (9E003.a.12), and the
technology for helicopter, tilt rotor or tilt wing aircraft power
transfer systems.
    All items removed from national security (NS) controls as a result
of the Wassenaar List of Dual-Use Goods and Technologies will continue
to be controlled for antiterrorism (AT) reasons.
    Numerous entries that are contained on the Wassenaar List of Dual-
Use Goods and Technologies are subject to the export licensing
authority of the Office of Defense Trade Controls, Department of State.
This rule will list all entries that are controlled on the Wassenaar
List of Dual-Use Goods and Technologies, but will specify that those
entries are under the licensing authority of the Office of Defense
Trade Controls, Department of State.
    On March 25, 1996 (61 FR 12714), BXA revised the Commerce Control
List by adopting the European Union (EU) numbering system and converted
our former ECCNs to correspond accordingly. The changes adopted by this
rule attempts to further harmonize the CCL with the EU List. This
ensures that identical ECCNs on the CCL and the EU List will identify
the same item(s). From an enforcement or customs perspective, this
common numbering system simplifies export controls for all countries
that harmonize to this control list. As a result of this harmonization
exercise, it was discovered that certain differences exist between the
EU List and the CCL and among agencies within the U.S., in terms of
MTCR related controls. These differences predominately exist in the
area of technology and software controls. For most of the entries, the
EU text was adopted or modified to ensure that it comported to the
intent of the MTCR Annex. For those technology and software entries
where differences could not be resolved at the interagency level, it
was agreed to maintain the control text for those entries as published
in the March 25 rule, until these differences are resolved.
    To ensure that no overlap in controls exists among the regimes and
that the Wassenaar Arrangement list did not decontrol items that are
currently controlled on the MTCR Annex, references to certain missile
technology controlled entries were included and clarification notes
were added to aid the exporter.
    In addition, this rule will include ECCN entries for those MTCR
items that are under the licensing authority of the Department of
State, Office of Defense Trade Controls. Those items are specifically
listed on the CCL to inform the exporter that the corresponding EU list
entry for such items are under the licensing authority of the
Department of State, Office of Defense Trade Controls.
    BXA is continuing a comprehensive review of the Commerce Control
List (CCL) to account for items controlled by the Nuclear Suppliers
Group (NSG), the Missile Technology Control Regime (MTCR), and the
Australia Group (AG) and to correct errors published on March 25, 1996,
and unavoidably reprinted in this version of the CCL. The review will
be based in large part upon the comments received in response to the
March 25 rule and upon ongoing efforts to harmonize the CCL with the
EU's control list.

Saving Clause

    This rule revises the numbering and structure of certain entries on
the Commerce Control List. For items under such entries and for April
15, 1998, BXA will accept license applications for items described
either by the entries in effect immediately before January 15, 1998 or
the entries described in this rule. In addition, shipments of items
removed from eligibility for export or reexport under a particular
License Exception authorization or the designator NLR, as a result of
this regulatory action, may continue to be exported or reexported under
that License Exception authorization or designator until February 17,
1998.

Rulemaking Requirements

    1. This interim rule has been determined to be significant for
purposes of E.O. 12866.
    2. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, no person is
required to respond to, nor shall any person be subject to a penalty
for failure to comply with a collection of information, subject to the
requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA), unless that
collection of information displays a currently valid OMB Control
Number. This rule involves collections of information subject to the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.) These
collections has been approved by the Office of Management and Budget
under control numbers 0694-0073, 0694-0086, and 0694-0088. This rule
also contains a new collection-of-information requirement subject to

[[Page 2455]]

the PRA that has received emergency approval under OMB control number
0694-xxxx. The new information requirement and estimated public burden
hours include: recording responses (5 minutes each); filing responses
(1 minute each); and transmitting responses to BXA (10 minutes per
exporter). These estimates include the time for reviewing instructions,
searching existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the data
needed, and completing and reviewing the collections of information.
Send comments regarding these burden estimates or any other aspect of
these collections of information, including suggestions for reducing
the burden, to OMB Desk Officer, New Executive Office Building,
Washington, DC 20503.
    3. This rule does not contain policies with Federalism implications
sufficient to warrant preparation of a Federalism assessment under
Executive Order 12612.
    4. The provisions of the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C.
553) requiring notice of proposed rulemaking, the opportunity for
public participation, and a delay in effective date, are inapplicable
because this regulation involves a military and foreign affairs
function of the United States (Sec. 5 U.S.C. 553(a)(1)). Further, no
other law requires that a notice of proposed rulemaking and an
opportunity for public comment be given for this interim rule. Because
a notice of proposed rulemaking and an opportunity for public comment
are not required to be given for this rule under 5 U.S.C. or by any
other law, the analytical requirements of the Regulatory Flexibility
Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.) are not applicable.
    However, because of the importance of the issues raised by these
regulations, this rule is issued in interim form and comments will be
considered in the development of final regulations.
    Accordingly, the Department encourages interested persons who wish
to comment to do so at the earliest possible time to permit the fullest
consideration of their views.
    The period for submission of comments will close February 17, 1998.
The Department will consider all comments received before the close of
the comment period in developing final regulations. Comments received
after the end of the comment period will be considered if possible, but
their consideration cannot be assured. The Department will not accept
public comments accompanied by a request that a part or all of the
material be treated confidentially because of its business proprietary
nature or for any other reason. The Department will return such
comments and materials to the person submitting the comments and will
not consider them in the development of final regulations. All public
comments on these regulations will be a matter of public record and
will be available for public inspection and copying. In the interest of
accuracy and completeness, the Department requires comments in written
form.
    Oral comments must be followed by written memoranda, which will
also be a matter of public record and will be available for public
review and copying. Communications from agencies of the United States
Government or foreign governments will not be made available for public
inspection.
    The public record concerning these regulations will be maintained
in the Bureau of Export Administration Freedom of Information Records
Inspection Facility, Room 4525, Department of Commerce, 14th Street and
Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20230. Records in this
facility, including written public comments and memoranda summarizing
the substance of oral communications, may be inspected and copied in
accordance with regulations published in Part 4 of Title 15 of the Code
of Federal Regulations. Information about the inspection and copying of
records at the facility may be obtained from Margaret Cornejo, Bureau
of Export Administration Freedom of Information Officer, at the above
address or by calling (202) 482-5653.

Technical Note to Table on Deposition Techniques

    Processes specified in Column 1 of the Table are defined as
follows:
    a. Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) is an overlay coating or
surface modification coating process wherein a metal, alloy,
``composite'', dielectric or ceramic is deposited upon a heated
substrate. Gaseous reactants are decomposed or combined in the
vicinity of a substrate resulting in the deposition of the desired
elemental, alloy or compound material on the substrate. Energy for
this decomposition or chemical reaction process may be provided by
the heat of the substrate, a glow discharge plasma, or ``laser''
irradiation.

    Note 1: CVD includes the following processes: directed gas flow
out-of-pack deposition, pulsating CVD, controlled nucleation thermal
decomposition (CNTD), plasma enhanced or plasma assisted CVD
processes.
    Note 2: Pack denotes a substrate immersed in a powder mixture.
    Note 3: The gaseous reactants used in the out-of-pack process
are produced using the same basic reactions and parameters as the
pack cementation process, except that the substrate to be coated is
not in contact with the powder mixture.

    b. Thermal Evaporation-Physical Vapor Deposition (TE-PVD) is an
overlay coating process conducted in a vacuum with a pressure less
than 0.1 Pa wherein a source of thermal energy is used to vaporize
the coating material. This process results in the condensation, or
deposition, of the evaporated species onto appropriately positioned
substrates. The addition of gases to the vacuum chamber during the
coating process to synthesize compound coatings is an ordinary
modification of the process. The use of ion or electron beams, or
plasma, to activate or assist the coating's deposition is also a
common modification in this technique. The use of monitors to
provide in-process measurement of optical characteristics and
thickness of coatings can be a feature of these processes. Specific
TE-PVD processes are as follows:
    1. Electron Beam PVD uses an electron beam to heat and evaporate
the material which forms the coating;
    2. Resistive Heating PVD employs electrically resistive heating
sources capable of producing a controlled and uniform flux of
evaporated coating species;
    3. ``Laser'' Evaporation uses either pulsed or continuous wave
``laser'' beams to heat the material which forms the coating;
    4. Cathodic Arc Deposition employs a consumable cathode of the
material which forms the coating and has an arc discharge
established on the surface by a momentary contact of a ground
trigger. Controlled motion of arcing erodes the cathode surface
creating a highly ionized plasma. The anode can be either a cone
attached to the periphery of the cathode, through an insulator, or
the chamber. Substrate biasing is used for non line-of-sight
deposition.

[[Page 2500]]

    Note: This definition does not include random cathodic arc
deposition with non-biased substrates.

    c. Ion Plating is a special modification of a general TE-PVD
process in which a plasma or an ion source is used to ionize the
species to be deposited, and a negative bias is applied to the
substrate in order to facilitate the extraction of the species to be
deposited from the plasma. The introduction of reactive species,
evaporation of solids within the process chamber, and the use of
monitors to provide in-process measurement of optical
characteristics and thicknesses of coatings are ordinary
modifications of the process.
    d. Pack Cementation is a surface modification coating or overlay
coating process wherein a substrate is immersed in a powder mixture
(a pack), that consists of:
    1. The metallic powders that are to be deposited (usually
aluminum, chromium, silicon or combinations thereof);
    2. An activator (normally a halide salt); and
    3. An inert powder, most frequently alumina. The substrate and
powder mixture is contained within a retort which is heated to
between 1,030 K (757 deg. C) to 1,375 K (1,102 deg. C) for
sufficient time to deposit the coating.
    e. Plasma Spraying is an overlay coating process wherein a gun
(spray torch) which produces and controls a plasma accepts powder or
wire coating materials, melts them and propels them towards a
substrate, whereon an integrally bonded coating is formed. Plasma
spraying constitutes either low pressure plasma spraying or high
velocity plasma spraying carried out underwater.

    Note 1: Low pressure means less than ambient atmospheric
pressure.
    Note 2: High velocity refers to nozzle-exit gas velocity
exceeding 750 m/s calculated at 293 K (20 deg. C) at 0.1 MPa.

    f. Slurry Deposition is a surface modification coating or
overlay coating process wherein a metallic or ceramic powder with an
organic binder is suspended in a liquid and is applied to a
substrate by either spraying, dipping or painting, subsequent air or
oven drying, and heat treatment to obtain the desired coating.
    g. Sputter Deposition is an overlay coating process based on a
momentum transfer phenomenon, wherein positive ions are accelerated
by an electric field towards the surface of a target (coating
material). The kinetic energy of the impacting ions is sufficient to
cause target surface atoms to be released and deposited on an
appropriately positioned substrate.

    Note 1: The Table refers only to triode, magnetron or reactive
sputter deposition which is used to increase adhesion of the coating
and rate of deposition and to radio frequency (RF) augmented sputter
deposition used to permit vaporization of non-metallic coating
materials.
    Note 2: Low-energy ion beams (less than 5 keV) can be used to
activate the deposition.

    h. Ion Implantation is a surface modification coating process in
which the element to be alloyed is ionized, accelerated through a
potential gradient and implanted into the surface region of the
substrate. This includes processes in which ion implantation is
performed simultaneously with electron beam physical vapor
deposition or sputter deposition.
