Abstract:
Methods for forming a multi-threshold voltage device on a substrate are provided herein. In some embodiments, the method of forming a multi-threshold voltage device may include (a) providing a substrate having a first layer disposed thereon, wherein the substrate comprises a first feature and a second feature disposed within the first layer; (b) depositing a blocking layer atop the substrate; (c) selectively removing a portion of the blocking layer from atop the substrate to expose the first feature; (d) selectively depositing a first work function layer atop the first feature; (e) removing a remainder of the blocking layer to expose the second feature; and (f) depositing a second work function layer atop the atop the first work function layer and the second feature.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus for creating a dual metal interconnect on a substrate. In some embodiments, a first liner of a first nitride material is deposited into at least one 1X feature and at least one wider than 1X feature, the first liner has a thickness of less than or equal to approximately 12 angstroms; a second liner of a first metal material is deposited into the at least one 1X feature and at least one wider than 1X feature; the first metal material is reflowed such that the at least one 1X feature is filled with the first metal material and the at least one wider than 1X feature remains unfilled with the first metal material; a second metal material is deposited on the first metal material, and the second metal material is reflowed such that the at least one wider than 1X feature is filled with the second metal material.
Abstract:
Embodiments of an integrated platform for fabricating n-type metal oxide semiconductor (NMOS) devices are provided herein. In some embodiments, an integrated platform for fabricating n-type metal oxide semiconductor (NMOS) devices may include a first deposition chamber configured to deposit a first layer atop the substrate, the first layer comprising titanium oxide (TiO2) or selenium (Se); a second deposition chamber configured to deposit a second layer atop the first layer, the second layer comprising titanium; a third deposition chamber configured to deposit a third layer atop the second layer, the third layer comprising one of titanium nitride (TiN) or tungsten nitride (WN).

Abstract:
Methods and apparatus for filling a high aspect ratio feature such as a via with ruthenium including: contacting a ruthenium liner with a ruthenium precursor within a high aspect ratio feature such as a via, wherein the ruthenium liner has a top surface within a high aspect ratio feature such as a via, and wherein the top surface comprises a halogen material such as iodine or bromine. Embodiments also relate to selective deposition of ruthenium within a high-aspect ratio feature such as a via.
