Semiconductor nitridation passivation

Methods, apparatuses, and systems related to a semiconductor nitridation passivation are described. An example method includes performing a dry etch process on a semiconductor structure on a wafer in a semiconductor fabrication process. The method further includes performing a dry strip process on the semiconductor structure. The method further includes performing a first wet strip clean process on the semiconductor. The method further includes performing a second wet strip clean process on the semiconductor. The method further includes performing a nitridation passivation on the semiconductor structure to avoid oxidization of the semiconductor structure. The method further performing a spacer material deposition on the semiconductor structure.
