Abstract
A method of operating a gas phase growth system is disclosed. The method includes a processing stage and a stabilizer feeding stage. In a non-limiting embodiment of the disclosure, an organometallic complex is vaporized by a vaporizer, and subsequently fed to a reaction chamber through a gas line communicating the vaporizer with the reaction chamber, whereby a film is formed on a substrate in the reaction chamber. During the stabilizer feeding stage, a stabilizer for the organometallic complex is fed in a gaseous state during normal operation of the vaporizer, wherein the stabilizer feeding stage is executed when the vaporizer is not vaporizing the organometallic complex.
