US Patent:
20220262619, Aug 18, 2022
Filed:
Feb 9, 2022
Appl. No.:
17/667704
Inventors:

Assignee:
Applied Materials, Inc. - Santa Clara CA
International Classification:
H01L 21/02
Abstract:
Methods of manufacturing memory devices are provided. The methods improve the quality of a selectively deposited silicon-containing dielectric layer. The method comprises selectively depositing a silicon-containing dielectric layer in a recessed region of a film stack. The selectively deposited silicon-containing dielectric layer is then exposed to a high-density plasma and annealed at a temperature greater than 800 C. to provide a silicon-containing dielectric film having a wet etch rate of less than 4 Å/min.

US Patent:
20230030436, Feb 2, 2023
Filed:
Jul 30, 2021
Appl. No.:
17/390151
Inventors:
- Santa Clara CA, US
Mun Kyu PARK - San Jose CA, US
Jun LEE - Andover MA, US
Deven Matthew Raj MITTAL - Santa Clara CA, US
Sungho JO - Chestnut Hill MA, US
Timothy MILLER - Santa Clara CA, US
Jingmei LIANG - San Jose CA, US
Praket Prakash JHA - San Jose CA, US
Sanjay G. KAMATH - Fremont CA, US
International Classification:
H01L 21/02
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present disclosure generally relate to methods for gap fill deposition and film densification on microelectronic devices. The method includes forming an oxide layer containing silicon oxide and having an initial wet etch rate (WER) over features disposed on the substrate, and exposing the oxide layer to a first plasma treatment to produce a treated oxide layer. The first plasma treatment includes generating a first plasma by a first RF source and directing the first plasma to the oxide layer by a DC bias. The method also includes exposing the treated oxide layer to a second plasma treatment to produce a densified oxide layer. The second plasma treatment includes generating a second plasma by top and side RF sources and directing the second plasma to the treated oxide layer without a bias. The densified oxide layer has a final WER of less than one-half of the initial WER.
