The objectives of the present invention are to prevent or inhibit the deterioration of optical systems that determine the longevity of an optical apparatus which delivers effects such as light transmission, diffraction, reflection, spectrum generation, and interference, and these combinations, and by so doing, decrease the frequency of maintenance operations such as window replacement and to reduce the costs for such operations. This invention is characterized by steps of creating a near vacuum zone with a presence of active energy to excite an oxidation reaction of carbon wherein the near vacuum zone faces the lighting surfaces of the optical system; generating negative ions or radicals in the near vacuum zone such as unstable chemical seeds containing oxygen atoms, such as OH radicals, OH— ions, ozone, O2— ions, O-radicals; and removing or reducing the accumulated carbon which deposits on the lighting surface, by reacting the deposited carbon with the negative ions or radicals. More specifically, the method according to this invention is characterized by the step of supplying active energy while supplying a flow of gases containing oxygen atoms such as water gas or oxidizing gas (for example, water vapor, oxygen, hydrogen peroxide, ozone or mixtures of said gases with inactive gases (including air)) into the near vacuum zone, thereby removing or reducing the accumulated carbon which deposits on the lighting surface by exciting the oxidation reaction of the accumulated carbon with the supplied active energy.

摘要:
Mutual diffusion of impurities in a gate electrode is suppressed near a boundary between an n-channel type MISFET and a p-channel type MISFET, which adopt a polycide's dual-gate structure. Since a gate electrode of an n-channel type MISFET and a gate electrode of a p-channel type MISFET are of mutually different conductivity types, they are separated to prevent the mutual diffusion of the impurities and are electrically connected to each other via a metallic wiring formed in the following steps. In a step before a gate electrode material is patterned to separate the gate electrodes, the mutual diffusion of the impurities before forming the gate electrodes is prevented by performing no heat treatment at a temperature of 700° C. or higher.

摘要:
In a process of forming MISFETs that have gate insulating films that are mutually different in thickness on the same substrate, the formation of an undesirable natural oxide film at the interface between the semiconductor substrate and the gate insulating film is suppressed. A gate insulating film of MISFETs constituting an internal circuit is comprised of a silicon oxynitride film. Another gate insulating film of MISFETs constituting an I/O circuit is comprised of a laminated silicon oxynitride film and a high dielectric film. A process of forming the two types of gate insulating films on the substrate is continuously carried out in a treatment apparatus of a multi-chamber system. Accordingly, the substrate will not be exposed to air. Therefore, it is possible to suppress the inclusion of undesirable foreign matter and the formation of a natural oxide film at the interface between the substrate and the gate insulating films.
