    Abstract: This invention relates to an improved process for the selective etching of TiN from silicon dioxide (quartz) and SiN surfaces commonly found in semiconductor deposition chambers equipment and tools. In the process, an SiO2 or SiN surface having TiN thereon is contacted with XeF2 in a contact zone to selectively convert the TiN to a volatile species and then the volatile species is removed from the contact zone. XeF2 can be preformed or formed in situ by reaction between Xe and a fluorine compound.

    Abstract: This invention relates to an improvement in the cleaning of contaminated tool parts having a coating of unwanted residue formed in a semiconductor deposition chamber. In this process, the contaminated parts to be cleaned are removed from the semiconductor deposition chamber and placed in a reaction chamber off-line from the semiconductor reactor deposition chamber, i.e. on off-line gas reaction chamber. The coating of residue on the contaminated parts is removed in an off-line reactor by contacting the contaminated parts with a reactive gas under conditions for converting the residue to a volatile species while in said off-line reactor and then removing the volatile species from said off-line gas reaction chamber.
