A method is provided for depositing silicon and silicon-containing films by atomic layer deposition (ALD). The method includes disposing the substrate in a batch processing system configured for performing ALD of the silicon-containing film, exposing the substrate to a non-saturating amount of a first precursor containing silicon, and evacuating or purging the first precursor from the batch processing system. The method further includes exposing the substrate to a saturating amount of a second precursor containing silicon or a dopant, where only one of the first and second precursors contain a halogen, and a reaction of the first and second precursors on the substrate forms a silicon or silicon-containing film and a volatile hydrogen-halogen (HX) by-product, evacuating or purging the second precursor and the HX by-product from the batch processing system, and repeating the exposing and evacuation or purging steps until the silicon or silicon-containing film has a desired thickness. |
