    摘要: A method of processing a substrate includes positioning the substrate within a processing zone of a processing chamber and removing an oxide layer from a surface of the substrate by introducing first radicals into the processing zone. The method further includes, after removing the oxide layer, introducing at least one first precursor gas into the processing zone and depositing at least one dielectric layer onto the surface by exposing the at least one first precursor gas to second radicals. After positioning the substrate within the processing zone, the substrate is not removed from the processing chamber until each of removing the oxide layer and depositing the at least one dielectric layer is performed.

    摘要: Embodiments of the invention relate to deposition of a conformal carbon-based material. In one embodiment, the method comprises depositing a sacrificial dielectric layer with a predetermined thickness over a substrate, forming patterned features on the substrate by removing portions of the sacrificial dielectric layer to expose an upper surface of the substrate, introducing a hydrocarbon source, a plasma-initiating gas, and a dilution gas into the processing chamber, wherein a volumetric flow rate of hydrocarbon source: plasma-initiating gas: dilution gas is in a ratio of 1:0.5:20, generating a plasma at a deposition temperature of about 300 C to about 500 C to deposit a conformal amorphous carbon layer on the patterned features and the exposed upper surface of the substrate, selectively removing the amorphous carbon layer from an upper surface of the patterned features and the upper surface of the substrate, and removing the patterned features.
