Abstract
Disclosed is a method of chemical vapor deposition (CVD). The method provides for use of a showerhead through which a source material gas including a reactive gas of at least one kind and a purge gas is injected over a substrate located in a reaction chamber to deposit a film on the substrate. The showerhead has reactive gas outlets surrounded by purge gas outlets. The bottom surface of the showerhead is spaced apart from the substrate by a predetermined distance. Reactive gases of different kinds are injected into compartments formed inside the showerhead so that each compartment of the showerhead is filled with the reactive gas of only one kind, and a purge gas of the source material gas is supplied into another compartment formed inside the showerhead. The reactive gas and the purge gas are discharged through the reactive gas outlets and purge gas outlets. Preferably, there are more purge gas outlets than reactive gas outlets.
