Abstract

Abstract A process for forming a deposition film, wherein a gaseous atmosphere of a silicon compound selected from (i) a silicon compound having at least one azo group directly bonded to a silicon atom and (ii) a silicon compound having at least one azide group directly bonded to a silicon atom is formed in a deposition chamber in which a substrate is placed, said compound is excited and decomposed utilizing light energy, and a deposition film containing silicon atoms is formed on said substrate. A compound containing atoms of a group III element or a group V element of the Periodic Table may be included in the atmosphere in the deposition chamber, the compounds excited and decomposed utilizing light energy, and a deposition film containing silicon atoms and the atoms in the group III or V element of the Periodic Table formed on said substrate.
