Abstract

See full text

Embodiments of the invention relate generally to semiconductor device fabrication and processes, and more particularly, to methods for implementing arrangements of magnetic field generators configured to facilitate physical vapor deposition (“PVD”) and/or for controlling impedance matching associated with a non-metal-based plasma used to modify a non-metal film, such as a chalcogenide-based film.
