There are provided methods of fabricating a silicon-doped metal oxide layer on a semiconductor substrate using an atomic layer deposition technique. The methods include an operation of repeatedly performing a metal oxide layer formation cycle K times and an operation of repeatedly performing a silicon-doped metal oxide layer formation cycle Q times. At least one of the values K and Q is an integer of 2 or more. K and Q are integers ranging from 1 to about 10 respectively. The metal oxide layer formation cycle includes the steps of supplying a metal source gas to a reactor containing the substrate, and then injecting an oxide gas into the reactor. The silicon-doped metal oxide layer formation cycle includes supplying a metal source gas including silicon into a reactor containing the substrate, and then injecting an oxide gas into the reactor. The sequence of operations of repeatedly performing the metal oxide layer formation cycle K times, followed by repeatedly performing the silicon-doped metal oxide layer formation cycle Q times, is performed one or more times until a silicon-doped metal oxide layer with a desired thickness is formed on the substrate. In addition, a method of fabricating a silicon-doped hafnium oxide (Si-doped HfO2) layer according to a similar invention method is also provided.
