摘要:
A film is formed on the surface of an electronic device substrate by using plasma based on microwave irradiation via a plane antenna member having a plurality of slits in the presence of a process gas comprising at least a gas containing a film-forming substance and a rare gas. An insulating film capable of forming an electronic device substrate with an insulating film having a good electrical property can be formed.

A method of supplying, in a gaseous phase, a material which is in a viscous liquid phase at normal temperature. The viscous liquid material is provided in a bubbler and the pressure of the vessel is maintained below atmospheric pressure. A carrier gas is supplied through a nozzle opening in the liquid material inside the vessel. The carrier gas is temporarily dissolved in the liquid and then released to form fine bubbles into which the liquid material is vaporized, so that the vapor of the material is supplied together with the carrier gas.

A sprinkler head of the present invention comprises a cover plate which is operated to fall down at a temperature lower than the operating temperature of the sprinkler head body and a switching unit provided on the body side of the sprinkler head so as to detect the falling of the cover plate and send a fire detection signal.A sprinkler head comprises a switching unit provided on the side of the sprinkler head body so as to send a fire detection signal when the unit is operated at a temperature lower than the operating temperature of the sprinkler head and send a sprinkler head operation signal when it is returned to a non-operating state by detection of the firewater discharged by the operation of the sprinkler head after the fire detection signal has been sent.An operation monitor for the sprinkler head of the present invention decides that the sprinkler head is operated and indicates the operation when it receives a sprinkler head operation signal from a switching unit provided on the sprinkler head and a detection signal from a water flow detector provided on piping extending to the sprinkler head.The structure in which the sprinkler head also serves as a fire detector enables a reduction of the cost of fire extinguishing equipment and the simplification of the installation work thereof, as well as an improvement in the appearance. It is also possible to detect the discharge of water from the sprinkler head without giving false information.

A substrate processing method is disclosed that, when forming a copper film on a miniaturized pattern with a copper diffusion prevention film being formed thereon, allows cleaning the copper diffusion prevention film on a substrate by using a supercritical medium, and allows the copper film to be formed by using the supercritical medium while preventing void occurrence and ensuring good adhesiveness with the miniaturized pattern. The substrate processing method includes a first step of supplying a first processing medium including a supercritical medium on a substrate and cleaning a film including a metal on a surface of the substrate; and a second step of supplying a second processing medium including the supercritical medium on the substrate, and forming a copper film.

A semiconductor device has a multilayered structure that includes an insulating interlayer formed on a lower wiring layer, a semiconductor substrate, and a via hole. The semiconductor device is manufactured by a method that includes plasma etching at least one surface of the insulating interlayer the in an atmosphere having as a major component either a carbonless, chlorine-based gas or a carbonless, chlorine-based gas and an inactive gas in order to remove contaminates that would otherwise promote reactivity with aluminum CVD on the surface of the insulating interlayer.

A multilevel interconnect structure for use in a semiconductor device includes a lower metal wiring having an aluminum or aluminum alloy film and a high melting point metal or high melting point metal alloy film. An interlayer insulating film is deposited on the lower metal wiring and a via hole is formed in the interlayer insulating film. A plug made of aluminum or aluminum alloy is formed in the via hole. An upper metal wiring has an aluminum or aluminum alloy film and a high melting point metal or high melting point metal alloy film. The plug directly contacts the aluminum or aluminum alloy film of at least one of the lower and upper metal wirings to decrease the via resistance without reducing the electromigration reliability.
