Abstract: Methods for forming silicide films are disclosed. Methods of selectively depositing metal-containing films on silicon surfaces which are further processed to form silicide films are disclosed. Specific embodiments of the disclosure relate to the formation of silicide films on FinFET structures without the formation of a metal layer on the dielectric.

Abstract: Apparatuses and methods to provide a fully self-aligned via are described. Some embodiments of the disclosure utilize a cap layer to protect an insulating layer in order to minimize bowing of the side walls during metal recess in a fully self-aligned via. The cap layer can be selectively removed, thus increasing the aspect ratio, by exposing the substrate to a hot phosphoric acid solution.

Abstract: An additive manufacturing system includes a platen, a dispenser configured to deliver a powder in a linear region that extends across less than all of a width of the platen, a drive system configured to move the dispenser along the first axis and a perpendicular second axis, a controller, and an energy source configured to selectively fuse a layer of powder. The controller is configured to cause the drive system to move the dispenser along the second axis a first time such that the linear region makes a first sweep along the second axis to deposit the powder in a first swath over the platen, thereafter along the first axis, and thereafter along the second axis a second time such that the first linear region makes a second sweep along the second axis to deposit the powder in a parallel second swath over the platen.
