Abstract:
A method includes performing an atomic layer deposition (ALD) process to deposit a dielectric material over a substrate, curing the deposited dielectric material using an ultra violet (UV) light, and annealing the deposited dielectric material after the curing.

Claim (Index 16):
A method of forming a Fin-Field Effect Transistor (FinFET) comprising:\n forming a fin protruding above a substrate; performing an atomic layer deposition (ALD) process to deposit an oxide film in a recess adjacent to the fin, wherein the performing the ALD process comprises:\n supplying a gas comprising a precursor and an oxidant to a deposition chamber having the substrate to form a first layer of the oxide film; \n removing the gas from the deposition chamber; and \n performing a plasma process to treat the first layer of the oxide film; \n curing the oxide film using an ultra violet light; and \n annealing the oxide film using a steam anneal process performed at a temperature between about 350\u00b0 C. and about 450\u00b0 C. over a time interval greater than about 30 minutes.
