Abstract:
A cleaning device for removing contamination on a substrate holder used with an electroplating cell includes an arm, a cleaning agent supplier, a nozzle and a receiver. The cleaning agent supplier is coupled to the arm and configured to supply a cleaning agent. The nozzle is coupled to the cleaning agent supplier and configured to spray the cleaning agent onto the substrate holder to remove the contamination. The receiver is coupled to the arm and configured to receive the cleaning agent after the cleaning agent is sprayed onto the substrate holder.
Abstract:
A method for forming a semiconductor device structure is provided. The method includes disposing a semiconductor substrate in a physical vapor deposition (PVD) chamber and introducing a plasma-forming gas into the PVD chamber. The plasma-forming gas is an oxygen-containing gas. The method also includes applying a radio frequency (RF) power by a power source to a metal target in the PVD chamber to excite the plasma-forming gas to generate plasma. The metal target is directly electrically coupled to the power source. The method further includes directing the plasma towards the metal target positioned in the PVD chamber such that an etch stop layer is formed over the semiconductor substrate.
