Abstract: In some embodiments, methods are provided for simultaneously and selectively depositing a first material on a first surface of a substrate and a second, different material on a second, different surface of the same substrate using the same reaction chemistries. For example, a first material may be selectively deposited on a metal surface while a second material is simultaneously and selectively deposited on an adjacent dielectric surface. The first material and the second material have different material properties, such as different etch rates.

Abstract: Examples of a substrate processing apparatus includes a device for subjecting a substrate to processing, and a controller for modifying a control parameter predetermined to control the device with a first modification value and a second modification value that vary over time, thereby calculating a modified parameter, and controlling the device based on the modified parameter, wherein the first modification value has a shorter term for modifying the control parameter than the second modification value.

Abstract: A dew point sensor arrangement includes sensing and dry gas source conduits coupled to a dew point sensor. A sensing valve with a sensing valve member couples the sensing conduit to the dew point sensor. A drying valve with a drying valve member couples the dry gas source conduit to the dew point sensor. The sensing valve member fluidly separates the sensing conduit from the dew point sensor in a sensing valve member closed position, the drying valve fluidly couples the dry gas source conduit to the dew point sensor in a drying valve member open position, and the drying valve member moves to the drying valve member open position when the sensing valve member moves to the sensing valve member closed position to dry the dew point sensor using dry gas provided through the dry gas source conduit. Semiconductor processing systems and dew point sensing methods are also described.

Abstract: A method and system for forming a conformal silicon carbon nitride layer overlying a gap on a surface of a substrate are disclosed. Exemplary methods include forming conformal silicon carbon nitride material within the gap and treating the conformal silicon carbon nitride material to form treated silicon carbon nitride material. The deposition time is relatively short to mitigate flow of the conformal silicon carbon nitride material within the gap.

Abstract: Methods of forming indium gallium zinc oxide (IGZO) films by vapor deposition are provided. The IGZO films may, for example, serve as a channel layer in a transistor device. In some embodiments atomic layer deposition processes for depositing IGZO films comprise an IGZO deposition cycle comprising alternately and sequentially contacting a substrate in a reaction space with a vapor phase indium precursor, a vapor phase gallium precursor, a vapor phase zinc precursor and an oxygen reactant. In some embodiments the ALD deposition cycle additionally comprises contacting the substrate with an additional reactant comprising one or more of NH3, N2O, NO2 and H2O2.

Abstract: Molybdenum (Mo) metal-on-metal (MoM) deposition methods for providing true bottom-up fill in vias and/or other gap features in device structures. These device structures contain metal at the bottom surface and have dielectric sidewalls. The deposition process provides molybdenum growth only, in some cases, on the metal film/layer to provide a selective process that can be called a metal-on-metal (MoM) process. The Mo MoM deposition process described herein are not limited to thin films (e.g., films less than 50 Å) and can be used to deposit thicker films (e.g., greater than 50 Å in some cases and greater than 200 Å in other useful cases) on metal surfaces while no, or substantially no, deposition is found on dielectric surfaces.

Abstract: A method for selectively depositing a metal oxide film is disclosed. In particular, the method comprises pulsing a metal or semi-metal precursor onto the substrate and pulsing an organic reactant onto the substrate. A reaction between the metal or semi-metal precursor and the organic reactant selectively forms a metal oxide film on either a dielectric layer or a metal layer.
