摘要:
The present disclosure describes apparatus and methods for processing microfeature workpieces, e.g., by depositing material on a microelectronic semiconductor using atomic layer deposition. Some of these apparatus include microfeature workpiece holders that include gas distributors. One exemplary implementation provides a microfeature workpiece holder adapted to hold a plurality of microfeature workpieces. This workpiece holder includes a plurality of workpiece supports and a gas distributor. The workpiece supports are adapted to support a plurality of microfeature workpieces in a spaced-apart relationship to define a process space adjacent a surface of each microfeature workpiece. The gas distributor includes an inlet and a plurality of outlets, with each of the outlets positioned to direct a flow of process gas into one of the process spaces.
摘要:
A method of forming a capacitor includes forming first capacitor electrode material over a semiconductor substrate. A silicon nitride comprising layer is formed over the first capacitor electrode material. The semiconductor substrate with silicon nitride comprising layer is provided within a chamber. An oxygen comprising plasma is generated remote from the chamber. The remote plasma generated oxygen is fed to the semiconductor substrate within the chamber at a substrate temperature of no greater than 750 °C effective to form a silicon oxide comprising layer over the silicon nitride comprising layer. After the feeding, a second capacitor electrode material is formed over the silicon oxide comprising layer. Methods of forming capacitor dielectric layers are also disclosed.
