Abstract

Methods of controlling the step coverage and pattern loading of a layer on a substrate are provided. In one aspect, a method includes exposing the substrate to a silicon-containing precursor in the presence of a plasma to deposit a layer, treating the deposited layer with a plasma, and repeating the exposing and treating until a desired thickness of the layer is obtained. The plasma may be generated from an oxygen-containing gas. In another aspect, a method comprises depositing a dielectric layer on a substrate having at least one formed feature across a surface of the substrate and etching the dielectric layer with a plasma from an oxygen or a halogen-containing gas to provide a desired profile of the dielectric layer on the feature. The deposition and etching may be repeated for multiple cycles to provide the desired profile.
