Classification: CPC H  C | IPC C  H

Claim 16:
17. A deposition method comprising:
delivering a boron-containing precursor and a nitrogen-containing precursor to a processing region of a semiconductor processing chamber;
forming a plasma of all precursors within the processing region of the semiconductor processing chamber, wherein a plasma power is maintained at less than or about 500 W during the forming the plasma of all precursors within the processing region of the semiconductor processing chamber; and
depositing a boron-and-nitrogen material on a substrate disposed within the processing region of the semiconductor processing chamber, wherein the substrate comprises a carbon-containing film formed overlying a stack of alternating films, and wherein the boron-and-nitrogen material is deposited in contact with the carbon-containing film.
