Abstract: In accordance with some embodiments herein, methods and apparatuses for flowable deposition of thin films are described. Some embodiments relate to cyclical processors for gap-fill in which deposition is followed by a thermal anneal and ultraviolet treatment and repeated. In some embodiments, the deposition, thermal anneal, and ultraviolet treatment are carried out in separate stations. In some embodiments, a second station is heated to a higher temperature than a first station. In some embodiments, a separate module is used for curing.

Abstract: An apparatus is configured to obtain operating information related to an operation amount of an image forming apparatus through the communication circuit, obtain another operating information related to another operation amount of another image forming apparatus located in a same installation location at which the image forming apparatus is located, determine, based on the operating information and the another operating information, a replacement timing for replacing a consumable component used in the image forming apparatus, and output the replacement timing.

Abstract: Methods and systems for manufacturing a structure comprising a substrate are provided herein. In some embodiments, the substrate comprises a plurality of recesses. The recesses may be at least partially filled with a gap filling fluid. The gap filling fluid may comprise an Si—N bond.

Abstract: Metallic layers can be selectively deposited on one surface of a substrate relative to a second surface of the substrate. In some embodiments, the metallic layers are selectively deposited on a first metallic surface relative to a second surface comprising silicon. In some embodiments the reaction chamber in which the selective deposition occurs may optionally be passivated prior to carrying out the selective deposition process. In some embodiments selectivity of above about 50% or even about 90% is achieved.

Abstract: Processes are provided herein for protecting metal thin films from oxidation when exposed to an oxidizing environment, such as the ambient atmosphere. The processes may comprise a protective treatment including exposing the metal thin film to a silicon-containing precursor at a temperature of about 200° C. or less in order to selectively adsorb a silicon-containing protective layer on the metal thin film. The silicon-containing protective layer may reduce or substantially prevent the underlying metal thin film from oxidation.
