ABSTRACT:
A method is provided for obtaining stable and elevated deposition rates in a reaction chamber, following the cleaning of the chamber. The method involves cleaning of the chamber, pre-coating the interior surfaces of the reaction chamber with an inorganic composition, and then, using the pre-coated chamber to deposit an organic layer onto a workpiece.
