    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for processing semiconductor substrates are described. A processing chamber includes a substrate support with an in-situ plasma source, which may be an inductive, capacitive, microwave, or millimeter wave source, facing the substrate support and a radiant heat source, which may be a bank of thermal lamps, spaced apart from the substrate support. The support may be between the in-situ plasma source and the radiant heat source, and may rotate. A method or processing a substrate includes forming an oxide layer by exposing the substrate to a plasma generated in a process chamber, performing a plasma nitridation process on the substrate in the chamber, thermally treating the substrate using a radiant heat source disposed in the chamber while exposing the substrate to oxygen radicals formed outside the chamber, and forming an electrode by exposing the substrate to a plasma generated in the chamber.

    Abstract: Embodiments herein provide for oxygen radical based treatment of silicon containing material layers deposited using a flowable chemical vapor deposition (FCVD) process. Oxygen radical based treatment of the FCVD deposited silicon containing material layers desirably increases the number of stable Si--O bonds, removes undesirably hydrogen and nitrogen impurities, and provides for further densification and excellent film quality in the treated silicon containing material layers. Embodiments include methods and apparatus for making a semiconductor device including: contacting a flowable layer of silicon containing material disposed on a substrate with a plurality of oxygen radicals under conditions sufficient to anneal and increase the density of the flowable layer of silicon containing material.

    Abstract: Methods for forming semiconductor devices, such as FinFET devices, are provided. An epitaxial film is formed over a semiconductor fin, and the epitaxial film includes a top surface having two facets and a bottom surface including two facets. A cap layer is deposited on the top surface, and portions of the epitaxial film in a lateral direction are removed by an isotropic plasma etch process. The isotropic plasma etch process may be performed at a pressure ranging from about 5 mTorr to about 200 mTorr in order to maximize the amount of radicals while minimizing the amount of ions in the plasma. Having a smaller lateral dimension prevents the epitaxial film from merging with an adjacent epitaxial film and creates a gap between the epitaxial film and the adjacent epitaxial film.
