Abstract

A method of fabricating an integrated circuit device with a substantially uniform inter-layer dielectric layer. The method includes steps of providing a partially completed semiconductor wafer (400) where the partially completed semiconductor device has a first polysilicon layer (401) thereon. The method includes depositing a dielectric layer (405) overlying the polysilicon layer and portions of the partially completed semiconductor device at a pressure of about 1 atmosphere. A step of forming a second polysilicon layer overlying portions of the dielectric layer is also included. The dielectric layer depositing step includes combining an organic silane and an ozone at a concentration of 200 g/m.sup.3 and less.
