  • Publication number: 20040258848
    Abstract: A method for processing a substrate having a metal layer formed on a surface of the substrate is set forth. The method first preprocesses a surface of the metal layer, deposits a protective film selectively on a surface of the metal layer by an electroless plating process, cleans the substrate after depositing the protective film, and dries the substrate after cleaning. These processes are repeated a plurality of times to process a plurality of substrate. The deposition rate in the deposition process is 10˜600 Å/min, and a variance of deposition rate for the plurality of substrate is controlled within ±10%.
