MATERIAL DEPOSITION SYSTEMS, AND RELATED METHODS AND MICROELECTRONIC DEVICES

Abstract:

A material deposition system comprises a precursor source and a chemical vapor deposition apparatus in selective fluid communication with the precursor source. The precursor source configured to contain at least one metal-containing precursor material in one or more of a liquid state and a solid state. The chemical vapor deposition apparatus comprises a housing structure, a distribution manifold, and a substrate holder. The housing structure is configured and positioned to receive at least one feed fluid stream comprising the at least one metal-containing precursor material. The distribution manifold is within the housing structure and is in electrical communication with a signal generator. The substrate holder is within the housing structure, is spaced apart from the distribution assembly, and is in electrical communication with an additional signal generator. A microelectronic device and methods of forming a microelectronic device also described.
