Abstract
Exemplary methods of semiconductor processing may include forming a layer of carbon-containing material on a substrate disposed within a processing region of a semiconductor processing chamber. The substrate may include an exposed region of a first dielectric material and an exposed region of a metal-containing material. The layer of carbon-containing material may be selectively formed over the exposed region of the metal-containing material. Forming the layer of carbon-containing material may include one or more cycles of providing a first molecular species that selectively couples with the metal-containing material. Forming the layer of carbon-containing material may include providing a second molecular species that selectively couples with the first molecular species. The methods may include selectively depositing a second dielectric material on the exposed region of the first dielectric material.
