Abstract
Methods for depositing a metal containing material formed on a certain material of a substrate using an atomic layer deposition process for semiconductor applications are provided. In one example, a method of forming a metal containing material on a substrate comprises pulsing a first gas precursor comprising a metal containing precursor to a surface of a substrate, pulsing a second gas precursor comprising a carboxylic acid to the surface of the substrate, and forming a metal containing material selectively on a first material of the substrate. In another example, a method of forming a metal containing material on a substrate includes selectively forming a metal containing layer on a silicon material or a metal material on a substrate than on an insulating material on the substrate by an atomic layer deposition process by alternatively supplying a metal containing precursor and a water free precursor to the substrate.
