Methods for forming and treating a silicon containing layer in a thin film transistor structure or solar cell devices are provided. In one embodiment, a method for forming a silicon containing layer on a substrate includes providing a substrate into a processing chamber, providing a gas mixture having a silicon containing gas into the processing chamber, providing a hydrogen containing gas from a remote plasma source coupled to the processing chamber, applying a RF power less than 17.5 mWatt/cm 2 to the processing chamber, and forming a silicon containing layer on the substrate. |
