Abstract

A thermal CVD process for forming silicon nitride-type or silicon dioxide-type films onto a substrate comprising the steps of: PA0 (a) introducing di-tert-butylsilane and at least one other reactant gas into a CVD reaction zone containing said substrate on which either a silicon nitride-type or silicon dioxide-type film is to be formed; PA0 (b) maintaining the temperature of said zone and said substrate from about 450.degree. C. to about 900.degree. C.; PA0 (c) maintaining the pressure in said zone from about 0.1 to about 10 Torr; and PA0 (d) passing said gases into contact with said substrate for a period of time sufficient to form a silicon nitride-type or silicon dioxide-type film thereon.
