A Ti film is formed by chemical vapor deposition in holes formed in an insulating film formed on a Si substrate or on a Si film formed on a Si substrate by a method comprising the steps of: loading a Si substrate into a film forming chamber; evacuating the chamber at a predetermined vacuum; supplying TiCl4 gas, H2 gas, Ar gas and SiH4 gas into the film forming chamber; and producing a plasma in the film forming chamber to deposit a Ti film in the holes formed in the insulating film. The Si substrate is heated at a temperature of from 550 to 700° C. during the deposition of the Ti film, and the flow rates of the processing gases are regulated so that Si-to-insulator selectivity is not less than one. This method enables formation of a Ti film on a Si base at positions of holes in an insulating layer, with a good morphology of the interface between the Si base and the Ti film and with a good step coverage.
