    Abstract: A plurality of substrate processing devices are disposed in a separated manner within a shared ambient environment. A conveyance device is disposed within the shared ambient environment and is defined to move a substrate through and between each of the substrate processing devices in a continuous manner. Some substrate processing devices are defined to perform dry substrate processing operations in which an energized reactive environment is created in exposure to the substrate in an absence of liquid material. Some substrate processing devices are defined to perform wet substrate processing operations in which at least one material in a liquid state is applied to the substrate. In one embodiment, a complementary pair of dry and wet substrate processing devices are disposed in the shared ambient environment in a sequential manner relative to movement of the substrate by the conveyance device.

    Abstract: Provided herein are ALE methods of removing III-V materials such as gallium nitride (GaN) and related apparatus. In some embodiments, the methods involve exposing the III-V material to a chlorine-containing plasma without biasing the substrate to form a modified III-V surface layer; and applying a bias voltage to the substrate while exposing the modified III-V surface layer to a plasma to thereby remove the modified III-V surface layer. The disclosed methods are suitable for a wide range of applications, including etching processes for trenches and holes, fabrication of HEMTs, fabrication of LEDs, and improved selectivity in etching processes.

    Abstract: An apparatus and method for manufacturing an interconnect structure to provide ohmic contact in a semiconductor device is provided. The method includes providing a semiconductor device, such as a transistor, comprising a substrate, a gate dielectric, a gate electrode, and source and drain regions in the substrate. An ultra-thin interfacial dielectric is deposited by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) over the source and drain regions, where the interfacial dielectric can have a thickness between about 3 Å and about 20 Å. The ultra-thin interfacial dielectric is configured to unpin the metal Fermi level from the source and drain regions. Other steps such as the deposition of a metal by CVD and the cleaning of the substrate surface can be performed in an integrated process tool without a vacuum break. The method further includes forming one or more vias through a pre-metal dielectric over the source and drain regions of the substrate.
