METHOD OF DEPOSITING ELECTROPOSITIVE METAL CONTAINING LAYERS FOR SEMICONDUCTOR APPLICATIONS

摘要

Embodiments of the present invention provide methods for forming layers that comprise electropositive metals through ALD (atomic layer deposition) and or CVD (chemical vapor deposition) processes, layers comprising one or more electropositive metals, and semiconductor devices comprising layers comprising one or more electropositive metals. In embodiments of the invention, the layers are thin or ultrathin (films that are less than 100 Å thick) and or conformal films. Additionally provided are transistor devices, metal interconnects, and computing devices comprising metal layers comprising one or more electropositive metals.
