Abstract:
A processing apparatus includes: a processing container having a substantially cylindrical shape and provided with an exhaust slit on a side wall; and a plurality of gas nozzles extending in a vertical direction along an inside of the side wall of the processing container, disposed symmetrically with respect to a straight line connecting a center of the processing container and a center of the exhaust slit, and each configured to eject a same processing gas into the processing container.
Abstract:
A film forming method is provided. In the film forming method, a mask is prepared based on a measurement result of a surface state of a substrate. The mask is transferred into a process chamber and the substrate is transferred into the process chamber. Then, a film is formed on a back surface of the substrate while the mask is disposed onto the back surface of the substrate.
Abstract:
There is provided a method of forming a polysilicon film, which includes: forming an amorphous silicon film on a substrate; forming a cap layer, which is formed of an amorphous germanium film or an amorphous silicon germanium film, on the amorphous silicon film; forming crystal nuclei of a silicon in the amorphous silicon film by heating the substrate at a first temperature; removing the cap layer after the crystal nuclei are formed; and growing the crystal nuclei by heating the substrate from which the cap layer is removed, at a second temperature equal to or higher than the first temperature.
Abstract:
A method of depositing a silicon oxide film and a silicon nitride film includes depositing the silicon oxide film and the silicon nitride film on a substrate, and a gas for forming the silicon nitride film further includes boron.
Abstract:
Provided is a method of operating a film forming apparatus capable of suppressing generation of particles by improving an adhesion of a carbon film to surfaces of members which are formed of a quartz material and contact a processing space in a processing container. The method includes forming a carbon film on each of surfaces of a plurality of objects held by a holding unit in a processing container formed of a quartz material, wherein the method further includes forming an adhesion film to improve the adhesion of the carbon film, on surfaces of members which are formed of a quartz material and contact a processing space in the processing container. Accordingly, the adhesion of the carbon film to the surface of the member formed of a quartz material contacting the processing space in the processing container is improved, thereby suppressing generation of particles.
