    摘要: A multiple step process sputter deposits material of uniform thickness on stepped surfaces of an integrated circuit substrate such as the surfaces of a high aspect ratio via or a narrow trench. Material is first sputter deposited at the bottom of the opening at high pressure using a high power RF source connected to a coil in the deposition chamber to couple energy into the plasma. A high power RF bias is applied to the substrate, and a low power DC bias is applied to the sputtering target. The same parameters are repeated in a second step except that the high power RF bias on the substrate support is either reduced to a low power level or reduced to zero (by the end of the second step) to deposit on the lowest quarter of the sidewall of the opening. In a third step, no RF bias is applied to the pedestal remains and the pressure is reduced to a medium pressure state, resulting in a deposition on the second quarter of the sidewall of the opening. In a fourth step, the RF power coupled to the plasma is reduced to a low level, resulting in deposition on the third quarter of sidewall of the opening. Finally, the last quarter of the sidewall of the opening is deposited upon by lowering the pressure further to a low pressure state and applying a high power DC bias to the target.

    摘要: A multi-site training system and a multi-site training method employ an authoring tool. The authoring tool: (1) receives source materials for a training module; (2) generates a plurality of media files from the source materials in a plurality of formats; and (3) generates at least one HTML page identifying the plurality of media files in the plurality of formats. The plurality of media files is installed in at least one media server and the at least one HTML page is installed in at least one information server. The plurality of media files in the plurality of formats provides the system and method with enhanced efficiency.
