Abstract: A method of processing a substrate according to a PECVD process is described. Temperature profile of the substrate is adjusted to change deposition rate profile across the substrate. Plasma density profile is adjusted to change deposition rate profile across the substrate. Chamber surfaces exposed to the plasma are heated to improve plasma density uniformity and reduce formation of low quality deposits on chamber surfaces. In situ metrology may be used to monitor progress of a deposition process and trigger control actions involving substrate temperature profile, plasma density profile, pressure, temperature, and flow of reactants.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for high rate formation of multi-layer stacks on semiconductor substrate is provided. A chamber for forming such stacks at high rates includes a first precursor line and a second precursor line. The first precursor line is coupled to a first diverter, which is coupled to a gas inlet in a lid assembly of the chamber. The second precursor line is coupled to a second diverter, which is also coupled to the gas inlet. The first diverter is also coupled to a first divert line, and the second diverter is coupled to a second divert line. Each of the first and second divert lines is coupled to a divert exhaust system. A chamber exhaust system is coupled to the chamber. The diverters are typically located close to the lid assembly.
