Abstract:
A method for forming a thermally stable spacer layer is disclosed. The method includes first disposing a substrate in an internal volume of a processing chamber. The substrate has a film formed thereon, the film including silicon, carbon, nitrogen, and hydrogen. Next, high pressure steam is introduced into the processing chamber. The film is exposed to the high pressure steam to convert the film to reacted film, the reacted film including silicon, carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen.
