Abstract
An insulating layer is formed onto a surface of a semiconductor substrate by reacting a silicon-containing compound and a compound containing peroxide bonding to deposit a short-chain polymer on the surface of the semiconductor substrate. A deposition rate of the short-chain polymer is increased by farther reacting a substance which associates readily with the compound containing the peroxide bonding.
Claims46
A method of depositing a siloxane containing polymer on a substrate, which method comprises positioning the substrate in a chamber, introducing into the chamber in the gaseous or vapor state a silicon-containing compound, a further compound containing peroxide bonding, and a substance which associates readily with the compound containing peroxide bonding, and reacting the silicon-containing compound with the further compound and the associating substance to provide a polymer layer on the substrate.
A method for forming an insulating layer on a surface of a semiconductor substrate by reacting a silicon-containing compound and a compound containing peroxide bonding to deposit a polymer on the surface of the semiconductor substrate, the method further comprising increasing a deposition rate of the polymer by further reacting a substance which associates readily with the compound containing the peroxide bonding.
