Methods and systems for selective deposition of conductive a cap for FAV features are described. In an embodiment, a method may include receiving a substrate having an interlayer dielectrics (ILD) layer, the ILD layer having a recess, the recess having a conductive layer formed therein, the conductive layer comprising a first conductive material. Additionally, such a method may include forming a cap within a region defined by the recess and in contact with a surface of the conductive layer, the cap comprising a second conductive material. The method may also include forming a conformal etch stop layer in contact with a surface of the cap and in contact with a region of the ILD layer. Further, the method may include selectively etching the etch stop layer using a plasma etch process, wherein the plasma etch process removes the etch stop layer selective to the second conductive material comprising the cap. |
