Methods for formation of epitaxial layers containing n-doped silicon are disclosed, including methods for the formation and treatment of epitaxial layers in semiconductor devices, for example, Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor (MOSFET) devices. Formation of the n-doped epitaxial layer involves exposing a substrate in a process chamber to deposition gases including a silicon source, a carbon source and an n-dopant source at a first temperature and pressure and then exposing the substrate to an etchant at a second higher temperature and a higher pressure than during deposition.
