Abstract

A process of forming a capacitive insulating film comprises the steps of forming a tantalum oxide film through thermochemical reaction involving organic tantalum charge gas and oxygen gas, and subsequently forming a tantalum oxide film through plasma chemical reaction involving tantalum halogenide charge gas and nitrous oxide (N.sub.2 0) gas, said steps being performed in the same apparatus.
