Abstract

Provided is a method of depositing an insulation layer on a trench in a substrate, in which the trench having an aspect ratio of 5:1 or more is formed, including: an insulation layer deposition step of performing an adsorption step of adsorbing silicon to the substrate by injecting a silicon precursor into the inside of a chamber into which the substrate is loaded, a first purge step of removing the unreacted silicon precursor and reaction byproducts from the inside of the chamber, a reaction step of forming the adsorbed silicon as an insulation layer including silicon by supplying a first reaction source to the inside of the chamber, and a second purge step of removing the unreacted first reaction source and reaction byproducts from the inside of the chamber; and a densification step of forming a plasma atmosphere in the inside of the chamber by applying an radio frequency (RF) power and densifying the insulation layer including silicon by using the plasma atmosphere, wherein a frequency of the RF power is in a range of 400 kHz to 2 MHz.
