Minimizing coating defects in low dielectric constant films
A method of coating a low dielectric constant material layer wherein the wafer surface is pre-wetted using a solvent to prevent or reduce coating defects is described. A semiconductor substrate is provided wherein a top surface of the semiconductor substrate may have surface defects. A solvent is coated overlying the top surface of the semiconductor substrate. A low dielectric constant material layer is coated overlying the solvent wherein the solvent covers the surface defects thereby preventing defects in the low dielectric constant material layer.
