摘要:
A polishing apparatus and method has a function of polishing a surface of a film formed on a substrate to a flat mirror finish and a function of polishing unnecessary metal film such as copper film deposited on an outer peripheral portion of the substrate to remove such unnecessary metal film. The polishing apparatus comprises a surface polishing mechanism comprising a polishing table having a polishing surface and a top ring for holding the substrate and pressing the substrate against the polishing surface of the polishing table to thereby polish a surface of the substrate, and an outer periphery polishing mechanism for polishing an outer peripheral portion of the substrate.

According to the ion generation method, ion source material composed of an element of desired ions to be generated and I is heated so that vapor of the compound is generated, and the ions are generated by discharging the vapor. The iodide has no corrosiveness, and can be stably ionized. Further, it hardly reacts with oxygen or water and is safe.

An electrically conductive mask having openings formed is located above a semiconductor substrate and ions are implanted into the surface of the semiconductor substrate through the electrically conductive mask, thereby forming ion implanted layers. For ion implantation under different conditions, a dedicated electrically conductive mask is used with each ion implantation step.

After a barrier film is formed on a pad electrode, Ni particles having a diameter of 2 &mgr;m or less are selectively deposited on the barrier film, thereby forming a Ni fine particle film. Then, a bump electrode made of a solder ball is provided on the pad electrode through the Ni fine particle film. Thereafter, the bump electrode is melted by a heat treatment to join the Ni fine particle film to the bump electrode. Thus, a bump electrode structure is finished.

摘要:
A semiconductor wafer etching system exhausts an exhaust gas including fluorocarbon gas to an exhaust line. Two traps, that are capable of trapping the fluorocarbon gas in the exhaust gas by cooled adsorption and releasing the adsorbed fluorocarbon gas by heating, are alternately arranged on the exhaust line. The two traps are alternately separated from the exhaust gas and regenerated on a regeneration line which serves to release the adsorbed fluorocarbon gas from the traps. The trap which is in the trap mode to adsorb the fluorocarbon gas is cooled to −120° C. or less. The trap which is in the regeneration mode to release the adsorbed fluorocarbon gas is heated to −100° C. or more.
摘要:
Electrical connection device for forming electrical connection between a first portion and a second portion of a semiconductor device. The first portion is set near or in contact with the second portion. The first and second portions are electrically connected by spraying fine metal particles of gold, nickel or copper in a carrier gas of helium, argon, hydrogen or nitgrogen on the first and second portions to form a metal bump. Prior to spraying the fine metal particles to form the metal bump, hard particles of titanium, copper, hafnium, zirconium or vanadium may be sprayed on the first and second portions to remove contamination layers.

A method comprises the steps of forming a damaged layer on a silicon substrate by subjecting the silicon substrate to a plasma treatment, forming a silicon oxide layer by exposing the surface of the damaged layer to an oxygen plasma to oxidize the surface of the silicon substrate including the damaged layer and selectively eliminating the silicon oxide layer under a condition of a high selective ratio to the silicon, in which the film thickness of the silicon oxide layer is controlled by controlling an ion energy of the oxygen plasma and exposure time of the surface of the damaged layer to the oxygen plasma in accordance with the film thickness of the damaged layer.
