摘要:
An amorphous carbon film forming method is performed by using a parallel plate type plasma CVD apparatus in which an upper electrode and a lower electrode are installed within a processing chamber, and the method includes: disposing a substrate on the lower electrode; supplying carbon monoxide and an inert gas into the processing chamber; decomposing the carbon monoxide by applying a high frequency power to at least the upper electrode and generating plasma; and depositing amorphous carbon on the substrate. It is desirable that the upper electrode is a carbon electrode.

Functional groups on the outermost surface of an amorphous hydrocarbon film are substituted. The amorphous hydrocarbon film is formed on a silicon substrate Sub, which is coated with a low-k film. A heat treatment is performed on the amorphous hydrocarbon film in a non-silane gas atmosphere. Next, a heat treatment is performed on the amorphous hydrocarbon film in a silane gas atmosphere immediately after the heat treatment in a non-silane gas atmosphere. After the heat treatment, a film, such as a hard mask, is formed.

An organic element is protected by a protection film which has high sealing performance while relaxing a stress and does not change the characteristics of the organic element. In a substrate processing system Sys, a substrate processing apparatus 10, which includes a deposition apparatus PM1, a first microwave plasma processing apparatus PM3, and a second microwave plasma processing apparatus PM4, is arranged in a cluster structure, and an organic electronic device is manufactured by keeping a space where a substrate G moves from carry-in to carry-out in a desired depressurized state. An organic EL element is formed by the deposition apparatus PM1, butyne gas is plasmatized by microwave power by the first microwave plasma processing apparatus PM3, and an aCHx film 54 is formed adjacent to the organic EL element to cover the organic EL element. Then, silane gas and nitrogen gas are plasmatized by microwave power by the second microwave plasma processing apparatus PM4, and a SiNx film 55 is formed on the aCHx film 54.

摘要:
A planarization method comprises forming on an uneven surface an silicon oxide film having a low wettingness at least on its surface. The low wettingness of the silicon oxide film is obtained by increasing the silicon/oxygen atom ratio by means of argon sputtering or plasma CVD method. A silica solution is subsequently spin-coated onto the silicon oxide film. Since the surface of the silicon oxide film has a low wettingness, more of the coated silica solution stands on recessed portions than on raised portions, resulting in a flat surface of the coated solution. After the coated silica solution has been hardened, etching-back can be carried out until the coated silica solution is completely removed, thereby achieving the planarized surface of the silicon oxide film.

An amorphous carbon film, which has excellent etching resistance and is capable of reducing reflectance when a resist film is exposed to light, is form. A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device includes forming an object film to be etched on a wafer, supplying a process gas containing a CO gas and an N2 gas into a processing container, forming an amorphous carbon nitride film from the supplied CO gas and N2 gas, forming a silicon oxide film on the amorphous carbon nitride film, forming an ArF resist film on the silicon oxide film, patterning the ArF resist film, etching the silicon oxide film by using the ArF resist film as a mask, etching the amorphous carbon nitride film by using the silicon oxide film as a mask, and etching the object film to be etched by using the amorphous carbon nitride film as a mask.
摘要:
Provided is an amorphous carbon film having a high elastic modulus and a low thermal contraction rate with a suppressed low dielectric constant, a semiconductor device including the amorphous carbon film and a technology for forming the amorphous carbon film. Since the amorphous carbon film is formed by controlling an additive amount of Si (silicon) during film formation, it is possible to form the amorphous carbon film having a high elastic modulus and a low thermal contraction rate with a suppressed dielectric constant as low as 3.3 or less. Accordingly, when the amorphous carbon film is used as a film in the semiconductor device, troubles such as a film peeling can be suppressed.
摘要:
The method of fabricating a semiconductor device includes the steps of (a) forming a metal film over a semiconductor substrate including a gate electrode on a surface thereof, an insulating sidewall covering a side surface of the gate electrode therewith, and source and drain regions formed therein, (b) forming a metal silicide film both on the gate electrode and the source and drain regions by thermally treating the semiconductor substrate to cause the metal film to react with silicon, and (c) etching out a non-silicided portion of the metal film, and further includes the step of (d) removing a portion of the non-silicided portion remaining non-etched or the metal film, by means of plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition. The step (d) may be carried out between the steps (a) and (b), between the steps (b) and (c), or after the step (c). The method is applied to a salicide structure semiconductor device, and makes it possible to completely remove a metal film or a metal silicide film formed on a sidewall by virtue of etching performance of plasma-enhanced CVD to thereby prevent occurrence of short-circuit between a gate electrode and source/drain regions without causing reduction in a thickness of a silicide film and side-etching of a silicide film.
