This invention provides a stable process for depositing films which include silicon and nitrogen, such as antireflective coatings of silicon oxynitride. Nitrogen is employed to permit lower flow rates of the process gas containing silicon, thereby reducing the deposition rate and providing better control of film thickness. Additionally, the use of nitrogen stabilizes the process, improving film uniformity, and provides a higher-quality film. The invention is capable of providing more accurate and easier fabrication of structures requiring uniformly thin films containing silicon, nitrogen, and, optionally, oxygen, such as antireflective coatings.
