Methods for forming a film stack suitable for transistor fabrication using a low temperature plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) process are provided. In one embodiment, the method includes providing a substrate in a PECVD chamber, depositing a dual layer SiNx film on the substrate, depositing a dual layer amorphous silicon film on the SiNx film, and depositing a n-doped silicon film on the dual layer amorphous silicon film. The aforementioned films are deposited at a temperature less than about 300 degrees Celsius in the same PECVD chamber.
