Semiconductor device with novel FLM composition

摘要

A method of depositing a thin film on a substrate in a semiconductor device using Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) process parameters exposes the substrate to at least one adherent material in a quantity sufficient for the material to adsorb onto the substrate and thereby form an initiation layer. The initiation layer presents at least one first reactive moiety which is then chemically reacted with at least one first reaction material using atomic layer deposition conditions to form a second reactive moiety. The second reactive moiety is then chemically reacted with at least one second reaction material under process conditions sufficient to form a reaction layer over the initiation layer. The process may be repeated to form successive reaction layers over the initiation layer. The adherent material constituting the initiation layer is preferably one which is not substantially degraded by the atomic layer deposition parameters. The initiation layer together with one or more reaction layer(s) constitutes the final film.
