ABSTRACT:
A method for forming a thin film includes: supplying an additive gas, a dilution gas, and a silicon-containing source gas into a reaction chamber wherein a substrate is placed; forming a thin film on the substrate by plasma CVD under a given pressure with a given intensity of radio-frequency (RF) power from a first point in time to a second point in time; at the second point in time, stopping the supply of the silicon-containing source gas; and at the second point in time, beginning reducing but not stopping the RF power, and beginning reducing the pressure, wherein the reduction of the RF power and the reduction of the pressure are synchronized up to a third point in time.
