Abstract
Methods, apparatuses, and systems related to selectively depositing a liner material on a sidewall of an opening are described. An example method includes forming a liner material on a dielectric material of sidewalls of an opening and a bottom surface of an opening and removing the first liner material of the sidewalls of the opening and the bottom surface of the opening using a non-selective etch chemistry. The example method further includes forming a second liner material on the dielectric material of the sidewalls of the opening to avoid contact with the bottom surface of the opening.
