    Abstract: Chemical vapor deposition (CVD) processes which use a ruthenium precursor of formula R1R2Ru(0), wherein R1 is an aryl group-containing ligand, and R2 is a diene group-containing ligand and a reducing gas a described. The CVD can include oxygen after an initial deposition period using the ruthenium precursor and reducing gas. The method can provide selective Ru deposition on conductive materials while minimizing deposition on non-conductive or less conductive materials. Further, the subsequent use of oxygen can significantly improve deposition rate while minimizing or eliminating oxidative damage of the substrate material. The method can be used to form Ru-containing layers on integrated circuits and other microelectronic devices.

    Abstract: The invention is directed to a vaporizer or ampoule assembly with improved heat transfer between a vaporizer vessel body and at least one support tray located therein. In particular, there is provided a heat transfer enhancing member that is disposed between a vessel body and support tray. In one example of a heat transfer enhancing member or assembly there is included a heat conductive mesh or liner around totally or partially around the support tray that is wedged in between the support tray and the interior diameter or wall of the vessel body. In a related embodiment, the heat transfer enhancing member includes an expandable support tray sidewall to increase physical contact between the support tray and the vessel body interior wall.

    Abstract: A method is described for vapor phase etching of oxide material including at least one of hafnia (HfO2) and zirconia (ZrO2), in the absence of plasma exposure of the oxide material. The method involves contacting the oxide material with an etching medium including at least one of phosphorus chloride and tungsten chloride under conditions producing a removable fluid reaction product, and removing the removable fluid reaction product. The etching process may be controllably carried out by use of pressure swings, temperature swings, and/or modulation of partial pressure of Hf or Zr chloride in the reaction, e.g., to achieve precision etch removal in the manufacture of semiconductor devices such as 3D NAND, sub-20 nm DRAMs, and finFETs.

    Abstract: A full fill trench structure is described, including a microelectronic device substrate having a high aspect ratio trench therein and filled with silicon dioxide of a substantially void-free character and substantially uniform density throughout its bulk mass. A method of manufacturing a semiconductor product also is described, involving use of specific silicon precursor compositions for forming substantially void-free and substantially uniform density silicon dioxide material in the trench. The precursor fill composition may include silicon and germanium, to produce a microelectronic device structure including a GeO2/SiO2 trench fill material. A suppressor component may be employed in the precursor fill composition, to eliminate or minimize seam formation in the cured trench fill material.

    Abstract: Provided is a plasma enhanced atomic layer deposition (PEALD) process for depositing etch-resistant SiOCN films. These films provide improved growth rate, improved step coverage and excellent etch resistance to wet etchants and post-deposition plasma treatments containing O2 and NH3 co-reactants. This PEALD process relies on one or more precursors reacting in tandem with the plasma exposure to deposit the etch-resistant thin-films of SiOCN. The films display excellent resistance to wet etching with dilute aqueous HF solutions, both after deposition and after post-deposition plasma treatment(s). Accordingly, these films are expected to display excellent stability towards post-deposition fabrication steps utilized during device manufacturing and build.
