摘要:
A surface layer portion of a silicon substrate is etched by using a mixed solution which contains ammonium hydroxide (NH4OH), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and water (H2O) at a weight ratio of 1:(1.3 to 2.65):(275 to 433). The density of the etch pits which have occurred in a surface of the silicon substrate whose surface layer portion was etched by the etching step is measured. The crystal quality, etc. of the silicon substrate are evaluated before a process for manufacturing semiconductor devices using such silicon substrates, in order to avoid a lowering of the yields of the semiconductor devices.

摘要:
Plasma ashing methods, for moving a resist material formed on a ground layer of a semiconductor device during fabrication of said semiconductor, are performed by using one of three kinds of reactant gases each composed of three different gases. Plasma ashing is performed: at an ashing rate of 0.5 .mu.m/min at 160.degree. C. and with an activation energy of 0.4 eV when a reactant gas composed of oxygen, water vapor and nitrogen is used; at an ashing rate of 0.5 .mu.m/min at 140.degree. C., with an activation energy of 0.38 eV and without etching the ground layer when a reactant gas composed of oxygen, water vapor and tetrafluoromethane is used; and at an ashing rate of 0.5 .mu.m/min at 140.degree. C., with an activation energy of 0.4 eV when a reactant gas composed of oxygen, hydrogen and nitrogen is used.

摘要:
A semiconductor device is fabricated by introducing an impurity element into a Si substrate by an ion implantation process with an energy set such that the depth of a junction formed in the Si substrate by the impurity element is less than about 50 nm, and then annealing the substrate, wherein the method further includes a step of removing an oxide film from a surface of the Si substrate before the step of ion implantation process.
摘要:
A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device including the steps of: (a) forming a mask layer of a desired pattern on a silicon substrate surface or on an SiO.sub.2 strain absorbing layer formed on the silicon substrate surface; (b) selectively oxidizing the silicon substrate in a dry oxygen atmosphere by using the mask layer as an oxidation mask; and (c) selectively oxidizing the silicon substrate in an atmosphere of dry oxygen mixed with gas containing halogen element, wherein a field oxide film having a thickness of 100 nm or more is formed. The first and second oxidizing steps (b) and (c) are preferably performed at temperatures between 950.degree. C. and 1200.degree. C. A field oxide film with a short bird's beak can be formed while maintaining a relatively high oxidation speed and preventing generation of a white ribbon.
摘要:
A process for stripping an organic material, which comprises forming gases including a gas containing oxygen and a gas containing a halogen into plasma in a plasma chamber, and supplying an active species of the halogen in the gas formed plasma to a reaction chamber to strip the organic material in the reaction chamber, wherein one mole or more of water vapor based upon two moles of the halogen molecule is fed to the reaction chamber, and the active species of the halogen are removed before contact thereof with the organic material.
