| abstract |
Methods for maintaining clean etch rate and reducing particulate contamination with PECVD of amorphous silicon films are provided. The method comprises cleaning a processing chamber with a plasma comprising a cleaning gas, exposing at least a portion of the interior surfaces and components of the processing chamber to an oxidation gas and a nitration gas in the presence of a plasma and depositing a bi-layer seasoning layer on the interior surfaces and components of the processing chamber. |
