Abstract

See full text

Methods and apparatus for protecting the dielectric layer sidewalls of openings, such as vias and trenches, in semiconductor substrates are provided. A pre-liner and a liner are deposited over the sidewalls of the openings as part of integrated processing sequences that either do not remove the photoresist until subsequent processing or remove the photoresist with a plasma etch that does not contaminate the sidewalls of the openings.
