摘要 |
The present invention generally provides an apparatus and method for reducing defects on films deposited on semiconductor substrates. One embodiment of the present invention provides a method for depositing a film on a substrate. The method comprises treating the substrate with a first plasma configured to reduce pre-existing defects on the substrate, and depositing a film comprising silicon and carbon on the substrate by applying a second plasma generated from at least one precursor and at least one reactant gas.
