The current disclosure relates to methods of depositing silicon-containing material on a substrate comprising a gap, wherein the method comprises providing the substrate in a reaction chamber and depositing a carbon-containing inhibition layer on the substrate, and depositing silicon-containing material on the substrate. Depositing the inhibition layer comprises supplying a carbon precursor comprising carbon in the reaction chamber and supplying first plasma in the reaction chamber to form a first reactive species from the carbon precursor for forming the inhibition layer on the substrate. The inhibition layer is deposited preferentially in the vicinity of the top of the gap. The disclosure further relates to methods of forming a structure, methods of manufacturing a device and to a semiconductor processing apparatus.
