Abstract
An atomic layer deposition (ALD) method, whereby an organometallic complex with a &bgr;-diketone ligand is chemically adsorbed onto a substrate and oxidized by activated oxygen radicals to deposit an atomic metal oxide layer on the substrate, uses reactive oxygen radicals generated using plasma and an organometallic complex having a &bgr;-diketone ligand as a precursor, which could not be used in a thermal ALD method using oxygen or water as an oxidizing agent, to address and solve the problem of the removal of organic substances using organometallic complexes with &bgr;-diketone ligands, thereby enabling diversification of the precursors for ALD and formation of excellent oxide films at low temperatures.
