Current investigations into area selective atomic layer deposition (AS-ALD) are garnering significant attention. AS-ALD enhances the efficiency of deposition on patterned substrates and high aspect ratio (AR>70) structures, showcasing its potential for a range of semiconductor manufacturing applications. Commonly employed inhibitors, such as self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) and (dimethylamino) trimethylsilane (DMA-TMS), are utilized to passivate areas where growth is not desired. However, these materials introduce carbon impurities and have limited thermal stability, leading to degraded selectivity at temperatures above 500°C. While fluorination offers a potential solution to these challenges, its application is restricted by damage to silicon substrates. In this study, we demonstrate a comprehensive approach for AS-ALD on silicon-based materials, Si and SiN vs. SiO2. Our method integrates in-situ native oxide removal with high-temperature area selective deposition, achieving outstanding selectivity and broad compatibility without risk of substrate damage.
