Provided is an in-situ thin-film deposition method in which a
TiSi.sub.x/Ti layer or TiSi.sub.x/Ti/TiN layer can be continuously
deposited. The method serves to deposit a thin layer as a resistive
contact and barrier on a loaded wafer and is performed in a thin-film
deposition apparatus including a transfer chamber having a robot arm
therein and a plurality of chambers installed as a cluster type on the
transfer chamber. The method includes depositing a TiSi.sub.x layer on
the wafer by supplying a first reactive gas containing Ti and a second
reactive gas containing Si to a first chamber; and transferring the wafer
to a second chamber using the transfer chamber and depositing a TiN layer
on the TiSi.sub.x layer.
