Abstract
Methods and apparatuses for forming an oxide film. The method includes depositing an oxide film on a substrate using a process gas mixture that comprises a silicon source gas, an oxygen gas, and a hydrogen gas, and a process temperature between 800° C. and 1300° C. During the deposition of the oxide film, the process gas mixture comprises less than 6% oxygen, silicon gas, and predominantly hydrogen.
