摘要:
In one embodiment of the present invention, the processing surface of a substrate having at least a single crystal surface and a dielectric surface is exposed to a first deposition gas containing a source gas and a doping gas to form a first doped thin film on the single crystal surface, whereas supply of the first deposition gas is stopped before a film is formed on the dielectric surface. Next, the processing surface of the substrate is exposed to a second deposition gas containing a source gas and a doping gas to form a second thin film doped with less dopant than the first thin film on the single crystal surface, whereas supply of the second deposition gas is stopped before a film is formed on the dielectric surface. Subsequently, the processing surface of the substrate is exposed to a chlorine-containing gas to be etched.

A dielectric insulating film including HfO or the like is formed by: cleaning a surface of a semiconductor substrate by exposing the substrate surface to a fluorine radical; performing hydrogen termination processing with a fluorine radical or a hydride (SiH4 or the like); sputtering Hf or the like; and then performing oxidation/nitridation. These steps are carried out without exposing the substrate to atmosphere, thereby making it possible to obtain a C-V curve with less hysteresis and realize a MOS-FET having favorable device characteristics.

The present invention provides a method for reducing the agglomeration of a Si layer in an SOI substrate, which can prevent the agglomeration of the Si layer from occurring in a heating and temperature-raising process for the Si layer, when heating and temperature-raising the Si layer that is the outermost surface of the SOI substrate and is in an exposed state, and can prevent the agglomeration further without forming a protective film on the SOI substrate. The method for reducing the agglomeration of the Si layer in the SOI substrate is a method of supplying a hydride gas in a heating and temperature-raising process for the Si layer, when heating and temperature-raising the Si layer which is in an exposed state in the SOI substrate that has an insulation layer and the Si layer sequentially stacked on a Si substrate. In this method, the hydride gas dissociates before the Si layer coheres, at a temperature at which the Si layer does not yet start agglomeration, and terminates a dangling bond of the Si layer with a predetermined atom such as H.

摘要:
This invention presents an ESC mechanism for chucking an object electro-statically on a chucking surface, comprising a stage having a dielectric block of which surface is the chucking surface, and a chucking electrode provided in the dielectric block. A temperature controller is provided with the stage for controlling temperature of the object. A chucking power source to apply voltage to the chucking electrode is provided so that the object is chucked. The chucking surface has concaves of which openings are shut by the chucked object. A heat-exchange gas introduction system that introduces heat-exchange gas into the concaves is provided. The concaves include a heat-exchange concave for promoting heat-exchange between the stage and the object under increased pressure, and a gas-diffusion concave for making the introduced gas diffuse to the heat-exchange concave. The gas-diffusion concave is deeper than the heat-exchange concave. This invention also presents a surface processing apparatus, comprising a process chamber in which a surface of an object is processed, and the electro-static chucking mechanism of the same composition.
