Abstract

Abstract A method for forming a deposited film by forming a gaseous atmosphere of a hydrogenated silicon compound of the general formula SinHm wherein n is an integer of 1 or more, and m is an integer of 2 or more in a chamber housing a substrate therein and forming a deposited film containing silicon on said substrate by excitation of said compound to effect decomposition or polymerization thereof comprises introducing a gaseous radical polymerization initiator into said chamber and utilizing light energy, thereby exciting said compound to effect decomposition or polymerization thereof.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 82 words
A method for forming a deposited film comprising: forming a gaseous atmosphere of a hydrogenated silicon compound of the general formula Si n H m wherein n is an integer of 1 or more, and m is an integer of 2 or more, in a chamber housing a substrate therein; introducing a gaseous CCl 4 radical polymerization initiator into said chamber and utilizing light energy to thereby excite said compound to effect formation of a deposited film containing silicon on said substrate.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 82 words
A method for forming a deposited film comprising: forming a gaseous atmosphere of a hydrogenated silicon compound of the general formula Si n H m wherein n is an integer of 1 or more, and m is an integer of 2 or more, in a chamber housing a substrate therein; introducing a gaseous CCl 4 radical polymerization initiator into said chamber and utilizing light energy to thereby excite said compound to effect formation of a deposited film containing silicon on said substrate.
