Abstract
Methods of forming semiconductor devices by enhancing selective deposition are described. In some embodiments, a blocking layer is deposited on a metal surface before deposition of a barrier layer. The methods include exposing a substrate with a metal surface, a dielectric surface and an aluminum oxide surface or an aluminum nitride surface to a blocking molecule to form the blocking layer selectively on the metal surface over the dielectric surface and one of the aluminum oxide surface or the aluminum nitride surface.
