    摘要: There is provided a method of filling one or more recesses by providing the substrate in a reaction chamber and introducing a first reactant to the substrate with a first dose, introducing a second reactant to the substrate with a second dose, wherein the first and the second doses overlap in an overlap area where the first and second reactants react and leave an initially substantially unreacted area where the first and the second areas do not overlap; introducing a third reactant to the substrate with a third dose, the third reactant reacting with the first or second reactant to form deposited material; and etching the deposited material. An apparatus for filling a recess is also disclosed.

    摘要: Disclosed are methods and systems for filling a gap. An exemplary method comprises providing a substrate to a reaction chamber. The substrate comprises the gap. The method further comprises forming a convertible layer on the substrate and exposing the substrate to a conversion reactant. Accordingly, at least a part of the convertible layer is converted into a gap filling fluid. The gap filling fluid at least partially fills the gap. The methods and systems are useful, for example, in the field of integrated circuit manufacture.

    摘要: Methods and related systems for filling a gap feature comprised in a substrate are disclosed. The methods comprise a step of providing a substrate comprising one or more gap features into a reaction chamber. The one or more gap features comprise an upper part comprising an upper surface and a lower part comprising a lower surface. The methods further comprise a step of subjecting the substrate to a first plasma treatment and subjecting the substrate to a second plasma treatment. Thus the upper surface is inhibited while leaving the lower surface substantially unaffected. Then, the methods comprise a step of selectively depositing a material on the lower surface.

    摘要: Methods and precursors for depositing silicon nitride films by atomic layer deposition (ALD) are provided. In some embodiments the silicon precursors comprise an iodine ligand. The silicon nitride films may have a relatively uniform etch rate for both vertical and the horizontal portions when deposited onto three-dimensional structures such as FinFETS or other types of multiple gate FETs. In some embodiments, various silicon nitride films of the present disclosure have an etch rate of less than half the thermal oxide removal rate with diluted HF (0.5%).
