Claim 0:
1. A method of filling a patterned recess on a surface of a substrate, the method comprising the steps of:
providing a substrate comprising a recess in a reaction space;
providing a silicon-free carbon-containing precursor to the reaction space, thereby filling the recesses with a gas phase precursor; and
after providing the silicon-free carbon-containing precursor to the reaction space, providing a plasma to the reaction space, thereby forming a viscous material in the recess,
wherein the viscous material flows in the recess and accumulates at a bottom of the recess to thereby form deposited material at the bottom of the recess,
wherein the deposited material solidifies,
wherein the step of providing the plasma comprises striking the plasma, and
wherein step the step of providing the plasma is conducted intermittently in a manner of pulsing the plasma on and off.
