1. A method of controlling a charge amount of an ion beam, comprising:
providing a semiconductor wafer;
forming an insulation layer on a surface of the wafer, wherein the insulation layer has parts and a gap between the parts of the insulation layer, wherein the insulation layer divides the surface of the wafer into an open region and a narrow and long region;
implanting an ion beam into the wafer, wherein a specific amount of electrons is added into the ion beam;
emitting a plurality of light beams to the surface of the wafer along the open region and the narrow and long region and measuring a plurality of light reflectivity values;
adjusting the amount of electrons to be added according to the variation in light reflectivity.
