Atomic layer deposition (ALD) process formation of silicon oxide with temperature >600° C. is disclosed. Silicon precursors used have a formula of: I.R1R2mSi(NR3R4)n wherein R1, R2, and R3 are each independently selected from a linear or branched C1 to C10 alkyl group, and a C6 to C10 aryl group; R4 is selected from hydrogen, a linear or branched C1 to C10 alkyl group, and a C6 to C10 aryl group, a C3 to C10 alkylsilyl group; wherein R3 and R4 are linked to form a cyclic ring structure or R3 and R4 are not linked to forma cyclic ring structure; m is 0 to 2; n is 1 to 3; and m+n=3.
