Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosure relate to methods for selectively removing metal material from the top surface and sidewalls of a feature. The metal material which is covered by a flowable polymer material remains unaffected. In some embodiments, the metal material is formed by physical vapor deposition resulting in a relatively thin sidewall thickness. Any metal material remaining on the sidewall after removal of the metal material from the top surface may be etched by an additional etch process. The resulting metal layer at the bottom of the feature facilitates selective metal gapfill of the feature.

A second thickness of the non-conformal metal layer on the field and on the bottom of the feature is approximately 30 microns or greater. And depositing a metal gapfill material in the opening of the feature and on the field where the metal gapfill material completely fills the opening without any voids.

Abstract: A drying apparatus, particularly suitable for disposing water-containing organic waste. The drying apparatus includes a drying chamber with a circular cross-section, where waste enters the drying chamber through a waste inlet and undergoes rotational movement within the drying chamber due to a negative pressure generated by an air pump. The air pump draws out airflow from the drying chamber through an air duct connected to the flow outlet, ensuring that the waste continues to rotate during the drying process. Additionally, the apparatus is equipped with a microwave generating device, which directs microwaves into the drying chamber either directly or via a microwave conduit to efficiently dry the waste. This design combines the cyclonic motion with microwave heating, significantly enhancing drying efficiency and ensuring that the waste is fully dried in a short time, making it particularly suitable for disposing organic residue that requires rapid drying.
