Abstract:
A substrate processing system includes a showerhead that comprises a head portion and a stem portion and that delivers precursor gas to a processing chamber. A baffle includes a base portion having an outer diameter that is greater than an outer diameter of the head portion of the showerhead, that comprises a dielectric material and that is arranged between the head portion of the showerhead and an upper surface of the processing chamber.

Abstract:
Methods of forming a film stack may include the plasma accelerated deposition of a silicon nitride film formed from the reaction of nitrogen containing precursor with silicon containing precursor, the plasma accelerated substantial elimination of silicon containing precursor from the processing chamber, the plasma accelerated deposition of a silicon oxide film atop the silicon nitride film formed from the reaction of silicon containing precursor with oxidant, and the plasma accelerated substantial elimination of oxidant from the processing chamber. Process station apparatuses for forming a film stack of silicon nitride and silicon oxide films may include a processing chamber, one or more gas delivery lines, one or more RF generators, and a system controller having machine-readable media with instructions for operating the one or more gas delivery lines, and the one or more RF generators.
