Abstract
A method for forming a ternary thin film using an atomic layer deposition process includes supplying a first and a second reactive material to a chamber containing a wafer, the first and second reactive materials being adsorbing on a surface of the wafer, supplying a first gas to the chamber to purge the first and second reactive materials that remain unreacted, supplying a third reactive material to the chamber to cause a reaction between the first and second reactive materials and the third reactive material to form a thin film monolayer, supplying a second gas to purge the third reactive material that remains unreacted and a byproduct, and repeating the above steps for forming the thin film monolayer a predetermined number of times to form a ternary thin film having a predetermined thickness on the wafer. Preferably, the ternary thin film is a SiBN film.
