Abstract

A novel selective and bottom-up deposition process from supercritical CO2 is proposed and demonstrated. Supercritical CO2 fluids are dense media, and a deposition precursor dissolving wherein can easily condences in hollow/concave features. By combining this capillary condensation phenomenon with proper reaction chemistry, it was realized to deposit Ru an Cu in holes and trenches structures preferentially. The capillary condensation occurs better in the narrower features, we call this method “gtopography-sensitive” selective deposition technique.
