Methods for selective deposition of tungsten atop a dielectric layer for bottom up gapfill
摘要:
Methods and apparatus for selectively depositing a tungsten layer atop a dielectric surface. In embodiments the method includes: depositing a tungsten layer via a physical vapor deposition (PVD) process atop a substrate field and atop a sidewall and a dielectric bottom surface of a feature disposed in a substrate to form a first tungsten portion having a first thickness atop the substrate field, a second tungsten portion having a second thickness atop the sidewall, and a third tungsten portion having a third thickness atop the dielectric bottom surface, wherein the second thickness is less than the first thickness and third thickness; oxidizing a top surface of the tungsten layer to form a first oxidized tungsten portion atop the substrate field, a second oxidized tungsten portion atop the side wall, and a third oxidized tungsten portion atop the dielectric bottom surface; removing the first oxidized tungsten portion, the second oxidized tungsten portion and the third oxidized tungsten portion, wherein the second tungsten portion is completely removed from the sidewall; and passivating or completely removing the first tungsten portion from the substrate field.
