摘要:
A method of forming a metal film using a metal carbonyl compound as a material is disclosed that includes the steps of: (a) introducing a reactive gas into a space near a surface of a substrate to be processed; and (b) introducing a gaseous phase material including the metal carbonyl compound into the space on the surface of the substrate to be processed, and depositing the metal film on the surface of the substrate to be processed after step (a). Step (a) is executed in such a manner as to prevent substantial deposition of the metal film on the substrate to be processed.

A raw material feeding device for feeding a gaseous raw material formed by sublimating a solid raw material to a film formation system includes a raw material container for holding the solid raw material therein, a first heating unit placed at a first side of the container, a second heating unit placed at a second side thereof, the first temperature control unit for conducting a first process of controlling the first and the second heating unit to make the temperature of the first side higher than that of the second side to thereby sublimate the solid raw material disposed at the first side, and the second temperature control unit for conducting a second process of controlling the first and the second heating unit to make the temperature of the second side higher than that of the first side to thereby sublimate the solid raw material disposed at the second side.
摘要:
A semiconductor substrate is placed in a predetermined processing vessel, and oxygen gas activated by, e.g. conversion into a plasma is supplied onto an insulating film. The surfaces of an interlevel insulating film and insulating film are exposed to the activated oxygen gas. After that, a transition metal film, e.g. a ruthenium film, is formed by CVD.

The present invention provides a CVD apparatus and a CVD method for use in forming an Al/Cu multilayered film. The Al/Cu multilayered film is formed in the CVD apparatus comprising a chamber for placing a semiconductor wafer W, a susceptor for mounting the semiconductor wafer W thereon, an Al raw material supply system for introducing a gasified Al raw material into the chamber and a Cu raw material supply system for introducing a gasified Cu raw material into the chamber. The Al/Cu multilayered film is formed by repeating a series of steps consisting of introducing the Al raw material gas into the chamber, depositing the Al film on the semiconductor wafer W by a CVD method, followed by generating a plasma in the chamber in which the Cu raw material gas has been introduced and depositing the Cu film on the semiconductor wafer W by a CVD method. The Al/Cu multilayered film thus obtained is subjected to a heating treatment (annealing), thereby forming a desired Al/Cu multilayered film.
摘要:
A substrate is disposed in a processing chamber. An organic Ta compound gas having Ta═N bond, a Si-containing gas and a N-containing gas are introduced into the processing chamber to form a TaSiN film on the substrate by CVD. In this film formation, at least one of a partial pressure of the Si-containing gas in the processing chamber, a total pressure in the processing chamber, a film forming temperature and a partial pressure of the N-containing gas in the processing chamber is controlled to thereby regulate Si concentration in the film. Particularly, when SiH4 gas is used as the Si-containing gas, the SiH4 gas partial pressure is determined based on the fact that the serried Si concentration in the film under giving process conditions can be expressed as a linear function involving the logarithm of the partial pressure of the SiH4 gas.

The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for forming a thin film using the ALD process. Prior to the ALD process where each of a plurality of source gasses is supplied one by one, plural times, a pretreatment process is performed in which the source gasses are simultaneously supplied to shorten an incubation period and improve throughput.
摘要:
A method for forming a passivated metal layer that preserves the properties and morphology of an underlying metal layer during subsequent exposure to oxygen-containing ambients. The method includes providing a substrate in a process chamber, exposing the substrate to a process gas containing a rhenium-carbonyl precursor to deposit a rhenium metal layer on the substrate in a chemical vapor deposition process, and forming a passivation layer on the rhenium metal layer to thereby inhibit oxygen-induced growth of rhenium-containing nodules on the rhenium metal surface.
