Disclosed is a method of fabricating a semiconductor device, in which an interlayer insulating film having a low dielectric constant is formed by coating a wiring, and either a via hole or a contact hole is formed in the interlayer insulating film. The method of fabricating a semiconductor device having the interlayer insulating film 25 formed on the film-formed substrate 21 with the exposed wiring 23, comprises the step of converting a silicon compound containing only the Si, O, C and H into a plasma gas as a film-forming gas to react the plasma gas, thus forming the block insulating film 24 containing silicon (Si), oxygen (O), carbon (C) and hydrogen (H) between the wiring 23 and the interlayer insulating film 25.

A developing apparatus includes an electrostatic latent image bearer, a developing sleeve, a case, and an air filter. The case accommodates a two-component developer and the developing sleeve. The air filter is attached to the case. The air filter has a thickness of 2 to 20 mm and has a density gradient with a pressure loss of 2 to 40 Pa at a wind speed of 10 cm/s. The air filter forms an airflow sucked into the case from a gap between the developing sleeve and the case and forms an airflow discharged from the case through the air filter. The two-component developer accommodated in the case contains a magnetic particle a surface of which is coated with a resin layer. The resin layer contains at least one type of chargeable particle.

Necessary resources are assigned to programs based on a program reservation information management table in which each of the programs is associated with a necessary resource quantity for execution of the program and execution scheduled time period as program reservation information. When the program reservation information is entered through a terminal, a free resource quantity management table in which available resource quantities are associated with respective time periods is referred to, and it is determined whether the available resource quantity for the execution scheduled time period is at or above the necessary resource quantity. When having determined that the available resource quantity is at or above the necessary resource quantity, the necessary resource quantity is subtracted from the available resource quantity, and the subtracting result is written as a new value of the available resource quantity into the free resource quantity management table, and the program reservation information is written into the program reservation information management table.

摘要:
The present invention relates to a semiconductor device in which an interlayer insulating film having a low dielectric constant is formed by covering wiring primarily made of a copper film, and to a method of manufacturing the same. In manufacturing the semiconductor device an insulating film having a low dielectric constant is formed on a substrate by converting a film-forming gas into a plasma for reaction. The method includes forming a low-pressure insulating film on the substrate by coverting the film-forming gas at a first gas pressure into a plasma and forming a high-pressure insulating film on the low-pressure insulating film by converting the film-forming gas at second gas pressure, higher than the first gas pressure, into a plasma and reaction.
