Patent abstract
A method for processing substrates is provided. The method includes depositing and etching a low k dielectric layer on a substrate, pre-cleaning the substrate with a plasma, and depositing a barrier layer on the substrate. Pre-cleaning the substrate minimizes the diffusion of the barrier layer into the low k dielectric layer and/or enhances the deposition of the barrier layer.
