IMPROVED SELF-ASSEMBLED MONOLAYER BLOCKING WITH INTERMITTENT AIR-WATER EXPOSURE

摘要

Implementations described herein generally relate to processes for the fabrication of semiconductor devices in which a self-assembled monolayer (SAM) is used to achieve selective area deposition. Methods described herein relate to alternating SAM molecule and hydroxyl moiety exposure operations which may be utilized to form SAM layers suitable for blocking deposition of subsequently deposited materials.
