Abstract
There is provided a method of forming a thin film for providing improved fabrication productivity. The method includes introducing a semiconductor substrate into a process chamber. A process thin film is formed on the semiconductor substrate, in which a chamber coating layer is formed on inner walls of the process chamber while the process thin film is formed. The semiconductor substrate is removed from the process chamber. A stress relief layer is formed on the chamber coating layer. After all of the above operations are repeatedly performed at least one time, an in-situ cleaning is performed on the chamber coating layer and the stress relief layer, which are alternately formed in stack on the inner walls of the process chamber.
