Methods for forming a silicon nitride film on a substrate and related semiconductor device structures

Abstract

A method for forming a silicon nitride film on a substrate is disclosed. The method may include; forming a cyclical silicon nitride film on the substrate by a cyclical deposition process, wherein the cyclical deposition process comprises at least one of; contacting the substrate with a first reactant comprising a silicon halide source and contacting the substrate with a second reactant comprising a nitrogen source. The method may also include exposing the cyclical silicon nitride film to a plasma. Semiconductor device structures comprising a silicon nitride film are also disclosed.
