Abstract:
Surface treatment processes for treating a workpiece with organic radicals are provided. In one example implementation, a method for processing a workpiece having a semiconductor material and a carbon containing layer (e.g., photoresist) can include a surface treatment process on the workpiece. The surface treatment process can include generating one or more species in a first chamber (e.g., a plasma chamber). The surface treatment process can include mixing one or more hydrocarbon radicals with the species to create a mixture. The surface treatment process can include exposing the carbon containing layer to the mixture in a second chamber (e.g., a processing chamber).

Claim (Index 3):
The method of  claim 1 , wherein the one or more hydrocarbon molecules have a chemical formula of C n H 2n , where n is greater than or equal to 2 and n is less than or equal to 10.
