摘要:
An electrostatic chuck device provided with a dielectric plate with a surface embossed to give it a plurality of projections, an electrode, and an external power source, wherein substrate supporting surfaces of the plurality of projections are covered by conductor wiring and the conductor wiring electrically connects the substrate supporting surfaces of the plurality of projections. At the time of substrate processing, when the embossed projections contact the back of the substrate, the back of the substrate and the conductor wiring is made the same in potential due to the migration of the charges, the generation of force between the back of the substrate and the conductor wiring being in contact with the same is prevented, and a rubbing state between the two is prevented. Due to this, the electrostatic chuck device reduces the generation of particles, easily and stably removes and conveys substrates, and realizes a high yield and system operating rate.

The method includes providing a substrate containing a dielectric layer having a recessed feature and forming a aluminum tantalum carbonitride barrier film over a surface of the recessed feature. The aluminum tantalum carbonitride barrier film is formed by depositing a plurality of tantalum carbonitride films, and depositing aluminum between each of the plurality of tantalum carbonitride films. One embodiment further comprises depositing a Ru film on the aluminum tantalum carbonitride barrier film, depositing a Cu seed layer on the Ru film, and filling the recessed feature with bulk Cu. A semiconductor device containing an aluminum tantalum carbonitride barrier film is described.

A method of processing a substrate has the following processes. After depositing a thin film onto a substrate by a CVD method, the front surface of the substrate is brought close to a gas supply surface of a gas supply mechanism to have a desired interval without making contact between the front surface and the gas supply surface. Afterwards, an etching gas is supplied into a back space of the substrate to generate plasma there, and further a purge gas is also supplied into a space between the gas supply surface and the substrate so that the purge gas flows into the back space through a peripheral-edge region of the substrate. This purge gas prevents radicals included in the plasma from diffusing into the space between the gas supply surface and the substrate.
