    Abstract: Methods of selectively depositing a carbon-containing layer are described. Exemplary processing methods may include treating a substrate comprising a carbon-containing surface and a silicon-containing surface with one or more of ozone or hydrogen peroxide to passivate the silicon-containing surface. In one or more embodiments, a carbon-containing layer is then selectively deposited on the carbon-containing surface and not on the silicon-containing surface by flowing a first precursor over the substrate to form a first portion of an initial carbon-containing film on the carbon-containing surface and not on the silicon-containing surface. The methods may include removing a first precursor effluent from the substrate. A second precursor may then be flowed over the substrate to react with the first portion of the initial carbon-containing layer. The methods may include removing a second precursor effluent from the substrate.

    Abstract: Exemplary methods of semiconductor processing may include providing a silicon-containing precursor and a carbon-containing precursor to a processing region of a semiconductor processing chamber. The carbon-containing precursor may be characterized by a carbon-carbon double bond or a carbon-carbon triple bond. A substrate may be disposed within the processing region of the semiconductor processing chamber. The methods may include providing an oxygen-containing precursor to the processing region of the semiconductor processing chamber. The methods may include thermally reacting the silicon-containing precursor, the carbon-containing precursor, and the oxygen-containing precursor at a temperature less than or about 700° C. The methods may include forming a silicon-and-carbon-containing layer on the substrate.

    Abstract: Exemplary methods of semiconductor processing may include etching one or more features partially through a dielectric material to expose material from one or more layer pairs formed on a substrate. The methods may include halting the etching prior to penetrating fully through the dielectric material, and prior to exposing material from all layer pairs formed on the substrate. The methods may include forming a layer of carbon-containing material on the exposed material from each of the one or more layer pairs having exposed material. The methods may include etching the one or more features fully through the dielectric material to expose material for each remaining layer pair formed on the substrate.
