An immersion exposure system 1 performs an exposure process through a liquid 301 provided between an optical element of a projection optical means 121 and a substrate 111. The immersion exposure system 1 includes a liquid supply section 80 which supplies the liquid 301, an exposure section to which the liquid 301 (301b) supplied from the liquid supply section 80 is continuously introduced along a specific direction and which performs an exposure process in a state in which a space between the optical element of the projection optical means 121 and the substrate 111 is filled with the liquid 301, a liquid recovery section 90 which recovers the liquid 301 (301a) passed through the exposure section 110 at a symmetrical position against the substrate 111, and a liquid recycling section 20 which recycles the liquid 301 (301c) recovered by the liquid recovery section 90. The properties of the immersion exposure liquid can be stabilized when applying an immersion method, whereby exposure can be advantageously and continuously performed, and running cost can be reduced.

In a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device having a nonvolatile semiconductor memory element with a two-layered gate structure in which a floating gate and control gate are stacked, a polysilicon layer serving as the floating gate is stacked on a silicon substrate via a tunnel insulating film. Then, the silicon layer, tunnel insulating film, and substrate are selectively etched to form an element isolation trench. A nitride film is formed on the sidewall surface of the silicon layer exposed into the element isolation trench. An oxide film is buried in the element isolation trench. A conductive film serving as the control gate is stacked on the oxide film and silicon layer via an electrode insulating film. The conductive film, electrode insulating film, and silicon layer are selectively etched to form the control gate and floating gate.

On a semiconductor substrate, a transistor and a capacitor electrically connected to the transistor are formed, the capacitor having two electrodes made of metal and a capacitor dielectric layer between the two electrodes made of oxide dielectric material. A temporary protective film is formed over the capacitor, the temporary protective film covering the capacitor. The semiconductor substrate with the temporary protective film is subjected to a heat treatment in a reducing atmosphere. The temporary protective film is removed. The semiconductor substrate with the temporary protective film removed is subjected to a heat treatment in an inert gas atmosphere or in a vacuum state. A protective film is formed over the capacitor, the protective film covering the capacitor. With these processes, leak current of the capacitor can be reduced.

Disclosed is a scanning exposure method, in which, when a pattern formed on a mask is transferred onto a wafer via an optical projection, the projecting region of the mask is limited by a slit, and the mask and the wafer are scanned in synchronism with the slit fixed so as to transfer the entire pattern region of the mask onto the wafer. In the scanning exposure method of the present invention, the exposure of the entire mask by the scanning of mask and the wafer is carried out twice by changing the exposure conditions. The first exposure and the second exposure are made opposite to each other in the scanning direction of the mask and the wafer so as to improve the pattern transfer accuracy.
