Yung-Haw Liaw

A chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method for forming with enhanced sheet resistance uniformity tungsten silicide layers upon substrates. There is formed upon a first substrate within a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) reactor chamber a first tungsten silicide layer through a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method. The first substrate is then removed from the chemical vapor deposition (CVD) reactor chamber. The chemical vapor deposition (CVD) reactor chamber is then cleaned with a fluorine containing plasma and subsequently purged with a mixture of silane and an inert gas. There may then be formed with enhanced sheet resistance uniformity upon a second substrate within the chemical vapor deposition (CVD) reactor chamber a second tungsten silicide layer through the chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method.
