Abstract

Methods of patterning semiconductor devices comprising selective deposition methods are described. A blocking layer is deposited on a metal surface of a semiconductor device before deposition of a dielectric material on a dielectric surface. Methods include exposing a substrate surface including a metal surface and a dielectric surface to a heterocyclic reactant comprising a headgroup and a tailgroup in a processing chamber and selectively depositing the heterocyclic reactant on the metal surface to form a passivation layer, wherein the heterocyclic headgroup selectively reacts and binds to the metal surface.
