| 摘要 |
Implementations described herein generally relate to methods for depositing etch stop layers, such as AlN layers, using UV assisted CVD. Methods disclosed herein generally include positioning a substrate in a process region of a process chamber; delivering an aluminum-containing precursor to the process region, the aluminum-containing precursor depositing an aluminum species onto the substrate; purging the process region of aluminum-containing precursor using an inert gas; delivering a UV responsive nitrogen-containing precursor to the process region, the UV responsive nitrogen-containing gas being activated using UV radiation to create nitrogen radicals, the nitrogen radicals reacting with the aluminum species to form an AlN layer; and purging the process region of UV responsive nitrogen-containing precursor using an inert gas. |
