Abstract

A method of an aspect includes forming a first thicker layer of a first material over a first region having a first surface material by separately forming each of a first plurality of thinner layers by selective chemical reaction. The method also includes limiting encroachment of each of the first plurality of thinner layers over a second region that is adjacent to the first region. A second thicker layer of a second material is formed over the second region having a second surface material that is different than the first surface material.
