Abstract:
A semiconductor device and a method of forming the same are provided. The method includes forming a trench in a substrate. A liner layer is formed along sidewalls and a bottom of the trench. A silicon-rich layer is formed over the liner layer. Forming the silicon-rich layer includes flowing a first silicon precursor into a process chamber for a first time interval, and flowing a second silicon precursor and a first oxygen precursor into the process chamber for a second time interval. The second time interval is different from the first time interval. The method further includes forming a dielectric layer over the silicon-rich layer.

Claim (Index 17):
The method of  claim 14 , wherein forming the first dielectric layer comprises flowing a third silicon precursor, a second oxygen precursor, and an oxygen-containing plasma into the process chamber for a third number of cycles.
