A method for forming a layer comprising SiOCN on a substrate is disclosed. An exemplary method includes thermally depositing the layer comprising SiOCN on a surface of the substrate. The layer comprising SiOCN can be used for various applications, including spacers, etch stop layers, and etch resistant layers.

Structure including SiOCN layer and method of forming same

A method for selectively depositing silicon nitride on a first material relative to a second material is disclosed. An exemplary method includes treating the first material, and then selectively depositing a layer comprising silicon nitride on the second material relative to the first material. Exemplary methods can further include treating the deposited silicon nitride.

Method for selective deposition of silicon nitride layer and structure including selectively-deposited silicon nitride layer

A method for selectively forming a silicon nitride film on a substrate comprising a first metallic surface and a second dielectric surface by a cyclical deposition process is disclosed. The method may comprise contacting the substrate with a first reactant comprising a silicon halide source and contacting the substrate with a second reactant comprising a nitrogen source, wherein the incubation period for the first metallic surface is less than the incubation period for the second dielectric surface. Semiconductor device structures comprising a selective silicon nitride film are also disclosed.
