    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a flexible workpiece pedestal capable of tilting a workpiece support surface. The workpiece pedestal further includes a heater mounted on the workpiece support surface. The heater includes a plurality of heating sources such as heating coils. The plurality of heating sources in the heater allows heating the workpiece at different temperatures for different zones of the workpiece. For example, the workpiece can have a central zone heated by a first heating coil, a first outer ring zone that is outside of the central zone heated by a second heating coil, a second outer ring zone that is outside of the first outer ring zone heated by a third heating coil. By using the tunable heating feature and the tilting feature of the workpiece pedestal, the present disclosure can reduce or eliminate the shadowing effect problem of the related workpiece pedestal in the art.

    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a method for the fabrication of MiM capacitor structures with metallic electrodes having nitrogen-rich metal nitride layers. The method includes depositing a first electrode bilayer on a first interconnect disposed on a substrate, where the first electrode includes a first layer and a second layer with a different nitrogen concentration. The method also includes depositing a dielectric layer on the first electrode bilayer and depositing a second electrode bilayer on the first interconnect where the second electrode includes a third layer and a fourth layer with a different nitrogen concentration. The method further includes patterning the first electrode bilayer, the dielectric layer, and the second electrode bilayer to form a capacitor structure on the first interconnect layer.
