SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE AND METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18447212 titled 'SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE AND METHOD

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a semiconductor device and manufacturing method that use a remote plasma process to minimize material segregation, resulting in a smoother interface for depositing conductive material. This reduces losses and improves overall yield.

  • Semiconductor device and manufacturing method using a remote plasma process
  • Aims to reduce or eliminate material segregation
  • Material segregation can cause uneven interfaces for depositing conductive material
  • Smoother interfaces allow for better deposition of conductive material
  • Improved deposition reduces losses and improves overall yield


Original Abstract Submitted

A semiconductor device and method of manufacture are provided which utilize a remote plasma process which reduces or eliminates segregation of material. By reducing segregation of the material, overlying conductive material can be deposited on a smoother interface. By depositing on smoother interfaces, overall losses of the deposited material may be avoided, which improves the overall yield.
