Abstract

Undesirable reactions (such as formation of volatile compounds or complexes) are recognized to occur during production processes (such as etching with fluorine) at interior surfaces of a reactor chamber (such as a silicon-based reactor chamber). These undesirable reactions may be minimized and controlled by priming the chamber surface by incorporating seasoning atoms and/or molecules.
