Abstract

This invention relates to a method of depositing dielectric on a semiconductor substrate to form part of a capacitor. The method includes reactive sputtering a metal oxide layer from a target of metal onto the substrate wherein the support is biased to induce a DC voltage across the depositing dielectric as it forms. The voltage may be in the range of 200-300V.
