摘要: This invention pertains to methods and systems for fabricating semiconductor devices. One aspect of the present is a method depositing gapfill copper layer onto barrier device metallization. In one embodiment, includes forming on surface substrate subjecting process condition so as form removable passivated layer. The further removing from Another an integrated system comprises at least module configured deposition formation other removal transfer coupled that can be transferred between modules substantially without exposure oxide-forming environment.
