    Abstract: Method of manufacturing semiconductor device includes forming photoresist layer over substrate. Forming photoresist layer includes combining first precursor and second precursor in vapor state to form photoresist material, wherein first precursor is organometallic having formula: MaRbXc, where M at least one of Sn, Bi, Sb, In, Te, Ti, Zr, Hf, V, Co, Mo, W, Al, Ga, Si, Ge, P, As, Y, La, Ce, Lu; R is substituted or unsubstituted alkyl, alkenyl, carboxylate group; X is halide or sulfonate group; and 1≤a≤2, b≥1, c≥1, and b+c≤5. Second precursor is at least one of an amine, a borane, a phosphine. Forming photoresist layer includes depositing photoresist material over the substrate. The photoresist layer is selectively exposed to actinic radiation to form latent pattern, and the latent pattern is developed by applying developer to selectively exposed photoresist layer to form pattern.

    Abstract: An overhead transport vehicle is described for association with an Automated Material Handling System (AMHS). The overhead transport vehicle provides features to the AMHS by which the AMHS is able to reduce a number of manual urgent lot rescues by the fab operator when a logistic algorithm controlling traffic in the AMHS is unable to transport the front opening unified pods (FOUP) from one tool to the subsequent tool in the sequence of the process steps within the q-time due to unexpected problems. An indicator on the overhead transport vehicle which helps the fab operator with spotting a lot in trouble is described. A backup power source on the overhead transport vehicle used in case of a main power failure is also described.

    Abstract: A method for fabricating a semiconductor structure is provided, including: providing a solid precursor having a first average particle size; solving the solid precursor in an organic solvent into an intermediate; recrystallizing the intermediate to form solid granules, wherein the solid granules has a second average particle size larger than the first average particle size; vaporizing the solid granules to form a film-forming gas; and depositing the film-forming gas on a substrate to form a resistance film. A method for modifying a resistance film source in a semiconductor fabrication and a solid precursor delivery system are also provided. The method for fabricating a semiconductor structure in the present disclosure can remove small particles or ultra-small particles from solid precursor, and does not need extra time to dump cracked solid precursor.

    Abstract: The treatment system provides a feature that may reduce cost of the electrochemical plating process by reusing the virgin makeup solution in the spent electrochemical plating bath. The treatment system provides a rotating filter shaft which receives the spent electrochemical plating bath and captures the additives and by-products created by the additives during the electrochemical plating process. To capture the additives and the by-products, the rotating filter shaft includes one or more types of membranes. Materials such as semi-permeable membrane are used to capture the used additives and by-products in the spent electrochemical plating bath. The treatment system may be equipped with an electrochemical sensor to monitor a level of additives in the filtered electrochemical plating bath.

    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a fluid head that is configured to eject a first fluid (e.g., a liquid state fluid) and a second fluid (e.g., a gaseous state fluid). The fluid head is movable in a rotatable-fashion and a translatable-fashion such that the fluid head may be utilized to increase a speed and decrease a period of time for cleaning and drying a workpiece after an electro-chemical polishing (ECP) process or step. The fluid head may also be utilized to increase a speed and decrease a period of time for beveling an edge of a conductive layer on the workpiece. The present disclosure is also directed to methods for cleaning and drying the workpiece as well as beveling the conductive layer of the workpiece utilizing the fluid head.
