Abstract:
In an embodiment, a method includes depositing a silicon matrix on a substrate; exposing the silicon matrix to a first wavelength or wavelength range of ultraviolet radiation in an ultraviolet processing chamber; exposing the silicon matrix to a second wavelength or wavelength range of ultraviolet radiation in an ultraviolet processing chamber, wherein the second wavelength or wavelength range includes a wavelength lower than any wavelength in the first wavelength or wavelength range; exposing the silicon matrix to a third wavelength or wavelength range of ultraviolet radiation in an ultraviolet processing chamber, wherein the third wavelength or wavelength range includes a wavelength lower than any wavelength in the first wavelength or wavelength range and second wavelength or wavelength range; and a repeat exposure of any wavelength range. In some embodiments, a healing operation comprising a deposition operation, a reactive cure, a thermal cure, or a combination thereof may be performed.
