Abstract
The disclosed technology generally relates to forming a thin film comprising titanium nitride (TiN), and more particularly to forming by a cyclical vapor deposition process the thin film comprising (TiN). In one aspect, a method of forming a thin film comprising titanium nitride (TiN) by a cyclical vapor deposition process comprises forming on a semiconductor substrate a TiN thin film by exposing the semiconductor substrate to one or more cyclical vapor deposition cycles each comprising an exposure to a Ti precursor at a Ti precursor flow rate and an exposure to a NHprecursor at a NHprecursor flow rate, after forming the TiN film, subjecting the semiconductor substrate, without further deposition of the TiN thin film, to a post-deposition exposure of NHat a second NHflow rate.
