A precursor delivery system (100) includes a flow path (104) from a precursor container (102) to a reaction space (110) of a thin film deposition system, such as an atomic layer deposition reactor. A staging volume (114) is preferably between precursor container (102) and reaction space (110) for receiving at least one dose of precursor material from precursor container (102), from which a series of pulses is released toward reaction space (110). Precursor material is typically vaporized after loading in precursor container (102), by heating or reducing the pressure inside precursor container (102). A vacuum line (156) preferably coupled to precursor container (102) bypasses reaction space (110) for reducing pressure inside precursor container (102) without drawing particles into reaction space (110). A high conductivity particle filter having inertial traps may be included, preferably between precursor container (102) and a staging volume (114), for filtering particles from the precursor material.
