Methods of depositing a silicon oxide film are disclosed. One embodiment is a plasma enhanced atomic layer deposition (PEALD) process that includes supplying a vapor phase silicon precursor, such as a diaminosilane compound, to a substrate, and supplying oxygen plasma to the substrate. Another embodiment is a pulsed hybrid method between atomic layer deposition (ALD) and chemical vapor deposition (CVD). In the other embodiment, a vapor phase silicon precursor, such as a diaminosilane compound, is supplied to a substrate while ozone gas is continuously or discontinuously supplied to the substrate. |
