Why remote plasma ALD ?
A "remote plasma" makes sure, the substrates
are NOT in contact with the plasma !
The remote plasma just cracks molecules,
so that very reactive species can be used for
the growth process.
Such reactive species often enable a very
efficient plasma preclean of the substrates,
lead to cleaner films and lower the deposition
temperature.
