Abstract
A process for forming an electronic device includes forming a first layer over a substrate, wherein the first layer includes an organic layer, and depositing a second layer over the substrate after forming the first layer, wherein depositing the second layer is performed using ion beam sputtering. In another embodiment, a process for forming an electronic device includes placing a workpiece within a depositing chamber of a depositing apparatus, wherein the workpiece includes a substrate and an organic layer overlying the workpiece. The process includes generating a plasma within a plasma-generating chamber of the depositing apparatus, wherein the plasma is not in direct contact with the workpiece. The process also includes sending an ion beam from the plasma-generating chamber towards a target within the depositing chamber, wherein the target includes a material, and depositing a layer of the material over the organic layer.
