A method of performing an oxygen radical enhanced atomic-layer deposition process on a surface of a substrate that resides within an interior of a reactor chamber is disclosed. The method includes forming an ozone plasma to generate oxygen radicals O*. The method also includes feeding the oxygen radicals and a precursor gas sequentially into the interior of the reactor chamber to form an oxide film on the substrate surface. A system for performing the oxygen radical enhanced atomic-layer deposition process is also disclosed.
