摘要:
A method to form a silicon oxide layer, where the method includes the step of providing a continuous flow of a silicon-containing precursor to a chamber housing a substrate, where the silicon-containing precursor is selected from TMOS, TEOS, OMTS, OMCTS, and TOMCATS. The method may also include the steps of providing a flow of an oxidizing precursor to the chamber, and causing a reaction between the silicon-containing precursor and the oxidizing precursor to form a silicon oxide layer. The method may further include varying over time a ratio of the silicon-containing precursor:oxidizing precursor flowed into the chamber to alter a rate of deposition of the silicon oxide on the substrate.
摘要:
A chemical vapor deposition method for forming a dielectric material in a trench formed on a substrate. The method includes flowing a silicon-containing precursor into a process chamber housing the substrate, flowing an oxidizing gas into the chamber, and providing a hydroxyl-containing precursor in the process chamber. The method also includes reacting the silicon-containing precursor, oxidizing gas and hydroxyl-containing precursor to form the dielectric material in the trench. The ratio of the silicon-containing precursor to the oxidizing gas flowed into the chamber is increased over time to alter a rate of deposition of the dielectric material.

摘要:
A system for processing substrates comprises a plurality of process chambers. Each process chamber includes an inlet gas distribution member connected to an inlet gas line to distribute gas from the inlet gas line into the process chamber, and a gas outlet. The inlet gas distribution member has an inlet gas distribution member impedance to a gas flow through the inlet gas distribution member into the process chamber. The plurality of process chambers are substantially identical. A source gas delivery line is connected to the inlet gas lines of the plurality of process chambers to supply a gas flow to be divided into the inlet gas lines. A plurality of tunable upstream gas restrictors are each disposed in one of the inlet gas lines connected to the inlet gas distribution members of the process chambers and are configured to adjust a flow rate into the corresponding process chamber.
