ABSTRACT:
One inventive aspect is related to an atomic layer deposition (ALD) method comprising:a) providing a semiconductor substrate in a reactor,b) providing a pulse of a first precursor gas into the reactor at a first temperature,c) providing a first pulse of a second precursor gas into the reactor at a second temperature, andd) providing a second pulse of the second precursor gas at a third temperature lower than the second temperature. Another inventive aspect relates to a reactor suitable to apply the method.
