R. Cheung et al., assignors to Applied Materials, Inc., Santa Clara, Calif:
A system for depositing a conductive layer on a substrate comprising an electroplating processing mainframe having a transfer robot and one or more electroplating cells; an electroless deposition applicator coupled to the mainframe, the applicator comprising a nozzle positioned to distribute electroless deposition fluid over the substrate; and an electroless deposition fluid supply fluidly connected to the electroless deposition applicator.
ANODIZING
S. Matsumura An apparatus
for anodizing a substrate by an electrolytic solution comprising a process tank for storing the electrolytic solution, the tank having an opening in a wall; a positive electrode having a flat contacting surface adapted to contact a surface of the substrate arranged to close the opening from an inside of the process tank, the surface being open outside the process tank through the opening; and a negative electrode arranged to oppose the substrate, which closes the opening.
