Abstract

This disclosure relates to a processing system for spin-coating a substrate with Molecular Self-assembly (MSA) chemicals to form photoresist films and/or low dielectric constant (low-k) films on the substrate. The spin-coating processing system may include a spin-coating chamber that can receive and spin-coat MSA chemicals onto the substrate and an annealing chamber to thermally treat the substrate after the spin-coat process. In certain embodiments, the spin-coating processing system may also pre-treat or pre-wet the substrate prior to the spin-coating process.
