摘要:
A plasma generation chamber and a processing chamber are isolated from each other by a barrier wall member disposed between them. The barrier wall member includes two plate members and stacked one on top of the other over a gap, a plurality of through holes and, via which hydrogen radicals are allowed to pass, are respectively formed at the plate member and the plate member. The through holes at one plate member are formed with an offset relative to the through holes formed at the other plate member and the plate members are both constituted of an insulating material that does not transmit ultraviolet light.

A substrate processing apparatus includes a processing vessel; a mounting table for mounting the substrate thereon in the processing vessel; a gas inlet unit provided in the processing vessel; a gas supply mechanism for supplying a hydrogen-containing gas into the processing vessel through the gas inlet unit; a gas discharge port provided at the processing vessel; a gas exhaust mechanism for exhausting an inside of the processing vessel through the gas discharge port; a catalyst provided in the processing vessel; and a heating unit for heating the catalyst. Hydrogen radicals are formed in the processing vessel by a catalytic cracking reaction between the hydrogen-containing gas and the catalyst of high temperature, and the substrate is processed by the hydrogen radicals.
摘要:
A method of checking a substrate edge processing apparatus, which can accurately check the state of the substrate edge processing apparatus. The thickness of an organic film formed on a surface of a substrate is measured, and a predetermined process in which undesired substance attached to an edge of the substrate is removed is carried out on a predetermined portion of the organic film using the substrate edge processing apparatus. The film thickness of the predetermined portion is then measured. The removal amount of the organic film is calculated based on the measurement results, and the performance of the substrate edge processing apparatus is evaluated based on the calculated removal amount.
摘要:
An ashing method of a target substrate is applied after plasma-etching a part of a low-k film by using a patterned resist film as a mask in a vacuum processing chamber. The method includes a process of removing the resist film in the vacuum processing chamber, and a pre-ashing process, performed prior to the main ashing process, for ashing the target substrate for a time period while maintaining the target substrate at a temperature in a range of from about 80 to 150° C.

摘要:
A plasma etching method includes the step of performing a plasma etching on a silicon-containing dielectric layer formed on a substrate to be processed by using a plasma, while using an organic layer as a mask. The plasma is generated from a processing gas at least including a C6F6 gas, a rare gas and an oxygen gas, and a flow rate ratio of the oxygen gas to the C6F6 gas (an oxygen gas flow rate/a C6F6 gas flow rate) is set to be about 2.8 to 3.3.
