Abstract

Electronic device fabrication processes, apparatuses and systems for flowable gap fill or flowable deposition techniques are described. In some implementations, a semiconductor fabrication chamber is described which is configured to maintain a semiconductor wafer at a temperature near 0° C. while maintaining most other components within the fabrication chamber at temperatures on the order of 5-10° C. or higher than the wafer temperature.
