This invention relates to an improvement in a deposition process for producing low dielectric films having a dielectric constant of 3, preferably <2.7 and lower. The process comprises the steps: (a) forming a liquid precursor solution comprised of an organosilicon source containing both Si--O and Si--C bonds and solvent; (b) generating a liquid mist of said liquid precursor solution, said mist existing as precursor solution droplets having a number average droplet diameter size of less than 0.5 .mu.m; (c) preferably electrically charging the liquid mist of said liquid precursor solution droplets; (d) depositing liquid mist of said liquid precursor solution droplets onto a substrate; and, (e) converting the thus deposited liquid mist of said liquid precursor solution droplets to a solid, low dielectric film.
