Abstract

A method of depositing a (200)-oriented platinum thin film on a substrate, including the steps of forming a oxygen containing platinum layer on the surface of a silicon wafer heated to a temperature range over room temperature and not exceeding 700.degree. C. under a mixed gaseous atmosphere of oxygen and inert gas and annealing the substrate at a temperature between 400.degree. C. and 1000.degree. C. The platinum thin film formed according to the present invention in (200)-oriented and does not have any conventional defects such as hillocks or voids.
