Abstract:
A disclosed example to modulate slit stress in a semiconductor substrate includes a first controller to, after obtaining a wafer stress measurement of the semiconductor substrate, control a first process to apply a first material to the semiconductor substrate based on the wafer stress measurement, the semiconductor substrate including a slit between adjacent stacked transistor layers, the first material coating walls of the slit to reduce a first width of the slit between the adjacent stacked transistor layers to a second width; and a second controller to control a second process to apply a second material to the semiconductor substrate, the second material to be deposited in the second width of the slit, the first material and the second material to form a solid structure in the slit between the adjacent stacked transistor layers.

Claim (Index 5):
An apparatus of  claim 2 , further including a fill parameter value generator to select a value for the material thickness parameter to prevent the first material from forming a pinch-off structure in the slit.
