APPARATUS AND METHODS FOR PLUG FILL DEPOSITION IN 3-D NAND APPLICATIONS

摘要

An apparatus and a method for forming a 3-D NAND device are disclosed. The method of forming the 3-D NAND device may include forming a plug fill and a void. Advantages gained by the apparatus and method may include a lower cost, a higher throughput, little to no contamination of the device, little to no damage during etching steps, and structural integrity to ensure formation of a proper stack of oxide-nitride bilayers.
